Stephen reports that he doesn't know Big Bang Mini, and he knows way more games than I do.
Check the Pollak book for my great-grandma Recha (or Susan, as she was called for most of her U.S. years.) (1890? - 1981-ish). You may also be interested in the fact that she worked in Havana as a seamstress after leaving Austria and before she was allowed into the U.S.
My grandma (Alice, born 1916) married shortly after getting here, and my great-aunt (Marianne or Maryan, born 1913) had already been married for the first time (of five) before immigrating, so I'm less sure they'd be in the book.
Well, I don't know what it says about me, but I was relieved to find, once I'd cracked and Googled, that a plate job was not nearly as unpleasant as I'd been braced for. I mean, ick, but after having recently googled 'two girls, one cup' because of you people, this is
nothing.
I think "two girls, one cup" is the last one I looked up.
It's a good place to stop. Thing is, it's easy to assume it's just them that do that. You bother naming some practice and put it in the Urban Dictionary, then a lot of people do it, or are willing to talk like it's done.
I still haven't looked up "two girls, one cup."
I will.not.google. I've learned my lesson in the past.
Hil, I say with absolute sincerity that your choice is a wise one.
I regret learning about that one.
A while back I was talking with K-Bug, her bf, and my nephew, who was on leave from the Navy. Somehow he made an off hand comment about "two girls, one cup" and I made an ewwww gross response. Well all three of them were shocked that I knew what he was talking about - talk about awkward moment.
Already knowing what I'd find, I can positively assert I'll never look up "two girls, one cup." I have no idea what a plate job is, but I think as long as all I'd hit on would be a definition, not a demonstration, I could handle it.
Ah,no - I should have clarified that it was only the definition that I encountered. But it's one of those things - like the bit with the rat in
American Psycho,
or the maggots in
The Wasp Factory,
that I really didn't need to have in my brain.
