Y’know, I like the contents of the dress a lot. But...what would possess somebody to think that a dress featuring scenes of HANGINGS would be a good idea at a beauty pageant? (Although I’m sure the cartridge belts really raise her stock among FReepers!)

She should have worn a bandolier of 7.62 instead of 45-70’s.

To make it more modern, they should have incorporated decapitated heads rolling across a dancefloor and 50 illegals running through the desert.

If she’s trying to be historically accurate, maybe 7X57, or .44-40.
