I thought we'd hit rock bottom long ago

Legislating the curvature of bananas isn't enough for the ~~Politburo~~ European Union. Now they're trying to outlaw Dirndl dresses.

(By the way, anyone going to the Oktoberfest? All in the name of standing up for (wo)man's God given right to wear Dirndl dresses, of course.)

(Hat tip to Michelle.)

Update 16.57: Rogier emails me that the EU has apparently already reinsured Bavarians that Dirndl dresses are here to stay. Good. Now, about the curvature of those bananas...

"I believe in life. I believe in treasuring it as a mystery that will never be fully understood, as a sanctity that should never be destroyed, as an invitation to experience now what can only be remembered tomorrow. (...)
I believe in liberty. I believe that within every soul lies the capacity to reach for its own good, that within every physical body there endures an unalienable right to be free from coercion. (...)
I believe in the pursuit of happiness. Not its attainment, nor its final definition, but its pursuit. I believe in the journey, not the arrival; in conversation, not monologues; in multiple questions rather than any single answer."
Andrew Sullivan
