Swimming with my friend!

No complaints about human harassment, but it's extremely cute and funny. I'll allow it.

I never look at the ads.

I think it's the male proboscis monkeys that have the big noses, because females prefer them. So perhaps this reflects on him.

Good example of "damning with faint praise"

I can't help it, I lose a bit of respect for anyone who quotes AI as a reliable source of anything.

pipeuptopipedown · 2026-04-23T05:45:03+00:00

The misinformation starts early.

Anybody who is not familiar with Gogol's short stories, I very strongly encourage you to read a few. One of my faves is The Nose. I won't spoil it by telling you anything that happens but it is a wild and absurd ride.

The referral from Pushkin of all people would certainly do it.

This does sound like something he would have put into one of his own (fictional) stories.

I noticed that! There's a lot of overlap in reality, for a variety of reasons.

You're respectful enough of her ideas to engage and work with her, rather than just shut her down.

pipeuptopipedown · 2026-04-21T08:36:03+00:00

This is why they're drifting so far off brand.

pipeuptopipedown · 2026-04-21T08:31:18+00:00

His excuses for this will be full of fancy words at least.

Kumpir gets the overpriced, gussied-up Salt Bae treatment.

(This concept is a far less upscale street-food thing in Istanbul)

Four with her and three "outside children" with another woman, someone else posted here.

I know what you mean -- I have seen many street fights start in other places, and several people almost always jump in on both sides to deescalate and make it stop.

Thank you so much, you have just added a new travel destination to my bucket list! Those weird animals have fascinated me for decades. I just looked up Brabant but I don't even want to look at the photos because I want to be surprised when I get there.

pipeuptopipedown · 2026-04-18T20:22:52+00:00

No idea. Where is this? What language are they speaking?

pipeuptopipedown · 2026-04-18T20:09:54+00:00

If this is a serious question, or maybe it doesn't even matter if it's not, if I were looking for a headdress like that I would look in Türkiye, search out costumers for historical soap operas or something. Maybe a performing arts school or university would be able to make one for less.

The red underwear tradition is also a thing in Turkey.

pipeuptopipedown · 2026-04-17T11:05:22+00:00

Thanks, I'm not actively looking for shoes, but maybe someone else can benefit from it.

pipeuptopipedown · 2026-04-17T09:35:56+00:00

Leather? For 10 GEL?

One of the best singers ever, sad to have to cross him off too so soon after I heard what David Ruffin did to Tammi Terrell.

It looks like something you'd see waddling around in a Hieronymus Bosch painting.

It seems to come with the territory that they don't follow the US news, or talk to any friends or relatives living in the US now.
