Album Cover Iconography. (4 Viewers)

[jane]

Hi Guys and Gals,

Just wondering if anyone can help me out here. I'd really like to know why Millie Jackson here (pictured below) is holding one of her shoes. What might it signify? Is there any other work, perhaps by one of her own contemporaries, that might explain this gesture? It isn't in my copy of 'Subjects and Symbols in Art', and I'm just curious.

At first, I was upset because now I can't call my album I Am Taking A Shite So Powerful and Stubborn That I Must Remove Footwear To Keep My Blood Vessels From Exploding, but now I'd just like to know.

Anyone who can be of any assistance, or who has any information on shoe removal during bowel evacuation, will be thanked publicly, at a location of my choosing, with a massive pile of my effluent.

Thanks!

Sincerely,

Jane

ETA: PS: Make that a bucket!

[oh shit]

she was sprinting to the toilet cos the turtle was starting to peek out. wearing high heels, she stumbled on her right foot. she managed to grab the offending high heel and leap onto the loo in time to let rip a torrent of dung.
the end.

She looks like she's about to throw it at the photographer. Proper order too - it's bad enough when people phone you when you're on the toilet, let alone take pictures of you.

i don't really understand, i like to take both my shoes off when i poo.

 

[The Fwames]

Now that's what I call a classy lady.

 

[avernus]

haha deadly!!

 

[jane]

I don't understand, either, Sadie. It's like a big mystery or something. Who will crack this creepy code?

hag knows a lot about pooing and shoes, hold on and i'll ask him.......

 

[Ex-User (250)]

slowey will. he likes black ladies' poo... 'says it tastes like milkybar.

 

[jane]

Now that's what I call a classy lady.

Who, me? Or Millie?

That Millie! Always upstaging me like that.

I'll get you, Millie!, Do you hear me!?

Well, Jane, I don't like to drag things to the level of distaste, no more than your good self. However, given that the shoe in question is in fact a spike heel, and considering too that the subject's underwear is all but removed entirely, I might hazard a guess. I'm reminded of a recent anecdote relayed by a good friend of mine in which she reminisced about a girl she once knew who bragged about having had sex (purely in practical terms) with a teapot. It was the spout, you understand. I can't help but draw a comparison between the spout in our story and the spike heel shown in the picture.

Now you, Jane, are no daw, and so I think you might be able to denote the true meaning of Millie's stance.

????? that was just one time! it's not like i make a habbit of it.

 

[plug]

well I'm baffled, there's clearly isn't a shortage of toilet paper, so I assume that she's not gonna wipe her arse with it...


...unless it's her fetish?

aaahhhh right. poo shoe sex. i think you've cracked it.
what she means is she's going back to her man who ain't no good. am i the only person around here who understands black people???

 

[jane]

Wait! Maybe it's some sort of anal shoe-horn?

The teapot, now that's genius. I hope its girth was sufficient. Most teapots look pretty unsatisfying to me, but hey. Whatever spouts your gee.

 

[avernus]

whatever the reason, she's sure as shit making a mess of that toilet - she's not even sitting on it right, so thar'd be crap dribbling all down the bowl.

but if I was to guess why the shoe is off, i reckon its cos she likes to feel the cold tiles on her right foot as she pinches out a slop.

 

[The Fwames]

Ah you're both classy ladies Jane. I just hope you're classy in a whole different way.

now there's a man using his noggin. personally, i don't think the original picture needed any context. probably belongs in bored in work and you're all still bored in work.

 

[jane]

Aw, thanks. And, yes, like Sadie, I take off both shoes.

 

[The Fwames]

I think you have something with the anal shoe-horn thing. You know that joke that goes:

Did you hear about the constipated mathematician?
He worked it out with a pencil.

Well I'm thinking that Millie ain't no mathematician...
