Can some woman kindly explain this latest fashion trend for me please?  I've been seeing women carrying these to work more often in the last few weeks, and I just don't get it.  You know who I'm talking about... the women who carry their stuff into work in a plastic Sendiks grocery bag as if it were a purse.

Granted it's a high quality plastic.  It's that durable thicker plastic, as opposed to the paper thin plastic you might get from Sentry.  Do you think that it somehow elevates you a notch in the snobbery hierarchy by letting your coworkers that you once went to a Sendiks?  Do you think that if we see you with one of those bags, that we'll naturally assume that you shop there so often, that your house is just brimming with old Sendiks bags, and you had to just find some use for them?

Is the finely tanned hide of a dead cow no longer as much of a status symbol as a grocery bag?
