Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People
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.

Abrade is the verb for abrasion, right? I see that abrase is also a verb, but it looks awkward and makes me think it's a backformation.

I'm bored enough to paint walls.
