Willow ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
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.
Combined with the fact that no one I know seems to know the phrase "do not fold, spindle or mutilate" I am wondering if I am from some bizarro common knowledge world.
Well, that's an old one, dating back to the late '60s. I'd say it was part of popular culture into the '70s but not much after that....

I was most surprised by the absinthe. Apparently they had missed the "green Fairy" part of Moulin Rouge, because they were all confused when I tried to explain that it she was the personification of absinthe. Of course, it all started when I made a really lame "absinthe makes the heart grow fonder" joke....
I had to explain, "I HAVE YOUR KEYS! YOU MUST CHILL!" the other day.
And I had to explain who Edward Gorey was.
I really need a new job. Where I work with Jilli.

Perkins took me to Lush in San Francisco last Saturday and the Rock Star soap I got is making my bathroom smell AWESOMECAKES.
A few months ago a Russian spacecraft returned from the International Space Station. Something went wrong and the spacecraft made a "ballistic reentry", which subjected the crew to much higher g-forces and caused the craft to land way off-target.
Anatoly Perminov, the head of the Russian Federal Space Agency, speculated that the ballistic reentry was connected to a Russian nautical superstition that having more women than men on a craft was unlucky. "This isn't discrimination," he stated when challenged on the point. "I'm just saying that when a majority [of the crew] is female, sometimes certain kinds of unsanctioned behaviour or something else occurs." Perminov said he would try to ensure that the number of women would not exceed the number of men in the future.[17]
Um, OK. Apparently it's OK to have chicks in space - just not too many of them....
There is a place called Meltz, here in Colorado, that is filling my Lush needs without the Lush smell overload. I believe there is a Lush out here somewhere too.
Darth Vader's love interest. Or maybe some wacky fashion thing....

That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this.

There's finally one here in Cincy that's part of a Macy's cosmetics department; it just so happens to be in the mall that is literally across the street from my office. Which is both AWESOME and bad for my bank account.
