Reading Helene Hanff's descriptions of 1970s decor to my brother like it's a horror story.
Department stores sell nylon shag bathroom carpeting
"Somehow it gets worse with each word."
I bought my tearose-pink bathroom carpeting
"Ooh. Ouch."
after my friend Richard cut it to fit the floor, he had enough left over to cover the toilet tank
"Augh! No! Make it stop!"
