Shelby got the giggles every time it was suggested that it was high time she titivated her appearance.

She knew what the word meant. There was no self-conscious embarrassment at work here. Quite frankly, Shelby was a slovenly mess, and aware of it.

Nor was she offended. Shelby had learned, that if one's personal appearance was not a going concern, a certain amount of criticism was to be expected.

What made Shelby giggle was that the source of said criticism originated from "Stinky Mike", the "Office Personal Disaster Area." The old bromide about "pots and kettles" leaping immediately to mind.
