Instead, he delivers rollicking stories from rural Alabama about a possibly murderous great-grandfather who knows how to conjure dessert from a bit of flour and a tin of condensed milk, a grandmother who takes unseemly pleasure in choosing which chicken's neck to wring and a cousin who cusses like a stevedore as she pats out a meatloaf.
The narrator of "I Love Dick" has a flair for social satire, and presents the letters, which are quoted in full, and transcripts of conversations between Chris, Sylvère, and Dick as "exhibits" in a case study of how the unseemly experience called "falling in love" unfolds for one feminist creative-class striver and her unfortunate husband.

" Arthur Cohen, chief executive of LaPlaca Cohen — a New York consulting firm that advises museums, including the Philadelphia Museum and the Frick, and other cultural institutions — suggested that museums were opting to grow within their own footprint now "because at this moment in time, the idea of a grand, flamboyant architectural gesture seems unseemly, quite tone-deaf.
Portrayed in the popular postcards and ads of the late 19th and early 20th century as grotesque, unseemly and out of control, women of size are represented in the gallery by Nettie the Fat Girl, a sideshow attraction shown in an early-20th-century photograph as a bulbous, childlike creature, her tutu and inflated thighs all but bearing her aloft.
If the financial crisis was one kind of reckoning, the trial of Emigrant is another, micro-version: a vision of an unhealthy, unwise or naïve appetite for debt on the part of some borrowers, and the unseemly drive to provide it that led Mr. Milstein to plow more and more money into a program with a skyrocketing rate of people falling behind.
A TV on the wall shows news footage of an anti-FBI protest outside of an Apple store in LA.

From the grizzled satyr Mickey Sabbath's imagined obituary ("did nothing for Israel") to his elation at his late mistress Drenka's "uberous" breasts, to the unseemly depths of his lecherous interest in friends' daughter's underwear or his urge to urinate on Drenka's grave, he erupts into exhilarating life even as he contemplates suicide in his grief at Drenka's death and his own aging diminution.

As the trial of Mr. Baroni and Ms. Kelly moved toward the end of its second week, the testimony again pulled back the curtain on the unseemly politics of New Jersey, particularly under Mr. Christie, a Republican, as he sought endorsements from Democratic mayors to help win a broad re-election victory in 2013 in the hopes that it could propel his presidential campaign in 2016.
That being said, there is something a little unseemly about a brand new device that costs nearly $1,000 not running Google's latest and greatest mobile operating system, Nougat (or Android 7.0), which was released on Monday and adds features like support for running windows side by-side (so you can more easily multitask on-the-go) and an expanded library of 1,500 different emoji.

For me, restaurants like Schrafft's and Howard Johnson's, with their wide demographic reach and the sense of community, however brief, that they created in the people who enjoyed them, balanced some of the privilege I had to acknowledge, the exceptional accidents and circumstances and associations of an educated East Coast life that accounted for my evenings at Le Pavillon, and my one power lunch at the Four Seasons, where I consumed an unseemly amount of lobster salad and steak frites while suffering the stares and whispers of the Grill Room regulars trying, unsuccessfully, to place me.
