Handbag Hooks - ARE YOU SERIOUS?
What is my opinion on handbag hooks? Aren’t they the cutest things you’ve ever seen? As if! The inventor of this piece of trash must have been mentally ill when he thought of this idea. No offense to the truly disabled individuals who strive so hard to be normal in our selfishly modern society of course. I sincerely admire their courage. Why do I stubbornly contest the use of handbag hooks? Read on folks and I will explain why this is so.
Let’s cut straight to the chase. I honestly think that handbag hooks are extremely foolish and rediculous. Why would you purposely hang your handbag on a hook when you can simply hang it on the back of your chair? Handbag hook user’s answer: “I use the hook, so my handbag doesn’t get dirty!” I almost want to point at them and explode in laughter for their unfortunate stupidity. Well, I know the actual answer to their use of this obtuse object and here’s why.
Handbag hook users have a certain personality and might I add a personality that is not too likable by many. What kind of person are the handbag hook users? These people make it known to others that they are somehow more special than you because they have a nice handbag. But in actuality they are telling me that they are stuck up and have an uncontrollable desire to show off. But, the unfortunate truth is that they spent their entire previous month’s wage to buy the handbag and it just would be too painful for them to see the handbag soiled. It is possible that these people are just “clean freaks” and I would be terribly wrong for judging people incorrectly. But the next time you see somebody using one of these useless hooks, you will notice that these people are all but neat.
You know what though? I could be entirely wrong, but I could also be undoubtedly right. So people, speak up if you want to challenge me on my point of view on handbag hooks.

I say: "Actually, not a bad idea, I may invest in one."
What you said in this blog may be true--some people in this world really do want to show off their fancies to others... but hey, why not? Why would anybody buy a designer item just to hide it? "If you got, it, flaunt it" right?
Yes, it's just a hook and some (genius) is making cold hard cash from it. (You have to admit: for something so small and easy to manufacture, that small idea has earned its income! That's what I mean by "genius".)
Besides that point, from a girl's perspective, these hooks may come in handy. Say, we are sitting at the bar like the picture in your blog. It would be inconvenient to keep the bags in our laps or on the counter top where our food/drinks may dirty them. Also, it would be not a very cautious move if we carelessly placed it on the floor or hung it behind us on our chairs because that poses for potential theft. If the bag were right by our side, out of the way but in our view, there would be no problem of the sort.
Thanks for the challenge, though!
