Leggings make her want to cut her hand off for touching them by mistake

Bostonia Rantida rants about local fashion crimes, including girly patchwork shorts for guys, Madras shorts, Crocs, long shirts and, naturally, leggings:
... I was in Filene's Basement the other day, browsing racks, when a soft-looking material caught my eye. I touched it. Smooth. Then I lifted it away from the rack to see what it was. IT WAS LEGGINGS! NO! I made an audible "Augh!" noise and backed away, wiping my hand on my skirt. Someone near me chuckled. I went to kitchen goods to find a knife so I could cut off my own hand. ...
Speaking of the soon-to-be-closed forever Basement (really, who thinks it will ever re-open in Downtown Crossing?), Miss M relays a fun story involving a mother and two daughters there that you might not want to have up on the screen at work.

I think it will reopen, in
I think it will reopen, in the same location even, but it's just going to be a "regular" Filene's Basement store. (i.e. barely worth going to.) The reason I go to the DTX Basement is because it's a unique, special place, and it's fun to pour over 30 identical shirts spread out over a whole circular rack to find the ONE in your size that's 75% off because you came today instead of yesterday. Sometimes, it's about the journey, not the destination. The original basemnt is about the journey.
