The smile is part of myself, I can't get rid of it. I'd welcome advice on Smiling 101 but it would need to be IRL or via webcam. I dunno, I kind of suspect it's not Part of Yourself but it's a Smile For The Camera smile. That's why it doesn't reach your eyes. (we've ALL seen such as Sears family ph...

ah yes, I missed this. But it's a neat illustration of what WE ALL KNOW is Eddy's problem with new information.

It's entirely conceivable that, given cramped cities and tiny apartments, your Terps might get so used to little one-room apartments that even when they HAVE more space, they still opt for a larger open-plan arrangement. This might run into problems with modesty in a culture USED to having private r...

Neat.
different, but on that same train of thought ...

wait, what? so column is what, /k@l@m?/ [note: schwa is a placeholder for vowels, since I can't tell english vowels apart, and they all sound like schwa to me anyway] In RP, /ˈkɒləm/; in GA, /ˈkɑːləm/; in my dialect, /ˈkaləm/ > [ˈkʰäːɤ̯ə̃(ː)m] - so yeah.

Plus, the fake photo grin often just looks... unsettling. For me, if someone catches me during an actual smile/laugh, the result is nice, but if I smile for the camera... let's just say there's a reason most of those pics end up in the bin. yeah totally ... sometimes it looks like the person with t...

[D] is a killer allophone though. Once you get your tongue to do it, it's like there's no going back. Half the time I use it in English and in French nearly all the time, making me sound like a Spanish francophone. And then there's using it in German and Serbian where it makes no sense...yet I can'...

Then no. There are a lot of cultural / legal restrictions I'd like to be free from, but I have no interest in ruling anything.

Since I brought up the idea, say you had the opportunity to found your own nation and it was accepted as a sovereign nation by the country in which you currently live. However, the catch is that it would never be any larger than 120 acres with three hundred people and you are not allowed to return ...

GAAAAHD.
And you're welcome for me telling you that.

Wow, I forgot about the scene in The Maltese Falcon where the P.I.s are discussing how some now-dead gangster liked his moll to strap on a dildo and peg him - Bogie was nonchalantly explaining how an autopsy revealed that the guy's asshole had been lubed up. Then all the characters went undercover ...

Then the consequence is that the whole conscript plagiarism controversy was all dhok's conscious trolling, and getting sano and the others' angry was his purpose... and damn if he didn't succeed. That is IF in fact the "revelation" about Serali was at all true. Which looks less likely the more peop...

I had one the other night with so many weird images that I sat awake for a while trying to rehearse it over again in my head to make sure I retained as much of it as I could. Pointless. Need to get a tape recorder. By the time I got to the shower, all of it but like three or four scenes were gone. W...
