Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Of course, if it were girl it would also be wonderful news.

Yes. But some of us more excited, 'cause now we know what colors of yarn should be purchased :).

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh dear lord, I am such an idiot.

I've been working on a counted cross-stitch pattern. I was careful to put in a contrasting thread dividing the cloth into quarters and have been working from the inside out - I've got about a quarter of the first quandrant finished. I just now realized that I have the whole thing turned 90 degrees so the long direction of the pattern is being worked in the short direction of the cloth and it won't fit.

After actually counting the remaining stitches, it will fit, it'll just be very hard to finish and frame. Harder than it would be to pull out everything I've done so far and start over? I'm not sure.

-t, I've done that. Actually, I did that on a gift given to a Bitch. I bet she doesn't even know.

What I did was finish it. Then, I used the sticky iron-on stuff to iron it to a piece of fabric the same shade. Then you can frame it. It should be fine, and no one but you will know.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Jess, hon, I don't think you have to whitefont the spoiler when you're the content owner...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

What else besides height/weight ratio is used to determine BMI?

I know this was sort of answered before, but BMI is height divided by the square of weight, then multiplied by some constant which I can't remember right now. So, pretty much what that means is that, in the old height/weight ratio system, it was considered that, for each inch of height, you should have a certain number of pounds. In the BMI system, you're "allowed" more pounds/inch for each additional inch.

So, if you consider 5'6" and 125 pounds as the baseline for "ideal," then BMI says "ideal" for someone 5'0" is 103.3. Height/weight says it's 113.6. On the other hand, using that same baseline, BMI says "ideal" for someone 6'0" is 148.8, while height/weight says 136.

IOW, I'm 4'10", and really hate the BMI scale.
