Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

How much more common is it to note the lowermost of said lips?

Bad writers are always overworking the lower lip: "She chewed on her lip thoughtfully" "His lower lip trembled as they lowered the penguin into the deep fat fryer"

I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

We're wobbly again.

As I stuck my tongue around my own mouth, I think the problem is that for naming purposes, medical nomenclature is going to talk about the muscle group, and that includes the whole flap over your upper set of teeth and gums. Not just the labial part where you'd apply lipstick.

But there are physiological differences wrt to the labia (upper labia? yeah, never mind)--thinner skinned, less (or no) melanin, more sensitive.

They should discriminate, dammit.

And the tech support guy should come back to my desk so I can leave and get chocolate. Sub par chocolate, but at this point I really don't care.

They've totally jacked with the vending machines. No ginger ale, no Kit Kats, no Nestle Crunch (my chocolates of true desperation), and no Knott's Berry Farm Raspberry Shortbread Cookies. They had the apricot, but it's not the same.

What a waste of a delicately brewed Raspberry Ceylon tea.

I found this soap site from fandom_wank, and I'm having some yearnings for the jasmine soap. Big old yearnings.

I don't suppose either of you would be happy with the phrase "above the lip line"?

Ah, no, I didn't think so.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

NY Court sent me a "juror questionnaire." What possible reason would I have to complete this thing? Because "failure to complete" is "punishable by law"? Which law? Why is this law not cited, hmmm? I guess I should do it anyway, since I'm an "officer of the court." But I do it grudgingly! And I'm not giving you my cell phone number!

Rant over.
