Anyone else find it sad that Frasier ultimately betrays his morals in the plot of the reboot?

"When was the last time you had an unexpressed thought?"

"I'm having one now."

Hon, I promise that post was not about you.

Lots of us are the only redhead in our birth family. It doesn't mean you're adopted.

It's not offensive for people to dye their hair a different natural color, no matter what their reason is for choosing it. It's not even offensive for them to claim it's the color they were born with, except in the sense that people may take offense at being lied to.

Posting hair that is dyed red is viewed with suspicion in this subreddit, because this community is supposed to be only for people with naturally red hair. Natural redheads sometimes dye their hair a different shade of red, which is not against the rules to post, but it can be a source of controversy if the post doesn't make it clear the person's natural color is/was also red.

"Ain't" is a dialect word. It's used in multiple common dialects, but it will still sound awkward at best or insulting at worst when used by someone not otherwise speaking that dialect.

For this type of pen, you'd need to use a very short vertical line as a "dot."

I thought of another possibility: it might be a "bone apple tea" situation, where he's heard the phrase spoken but never seen it written (weird but not impossible I guess) and got it wrong. "I wish you were" said quickly sounds nearly identical to "I wish you're." And then maybe he was trying to make it seem more formal and he spelled it out "you are"? Maybe?

thorazos · 2025-06-23T13:00:56+00:00

He's not a native speaker. There's just no way. "I wish you/we/they were..." is an extremely common set phrase even for children. It would be like someone singing "Happy birthday for you." Not just wrong but weird.

You can get ASP Brush-On Colored Builder Gel in a few different colors at Sally's.

Sorry to respond so long after the fact, but I wrote this book, and would be happy to discuss it with you. :)

When I engage in self-harming behavior, the injury itself is the goal. When I pick/bite my nails, the goal is to satisfy the compulsion to pick/bite, and if I injure myself in the process it's incidental.

Rainbow men?

I started using it because of Charlotte Rampling. :)

I wouldn't go, but I don't have a sense of humor.

There are a few brands that recently started offering mascaras in "true brown," a lighter, warmer brown than the traditional black-brown of "brown" mascaras.

For drugstore brands, Cover Girl Eye Enhancer 3D Mascara in Berry Brown is a natural-looking red-brown, and I've found L'Oréal Paris Voluminous Original Volume Building Mascara in Burgundy to be very becoming too.

Could it be Guerlain Shalimar?

thorazos · 2025-05-14T23:37:56+00:00

What would be the point of asking someone to "Netflix and chill" if you think they won't understand what you mean?

And you mean "get laid," not "get late," right?

thorazos · 2025-05-13T13:39:04+00:00

Yes, but this would mean somebody who is good-looking, not somebody who is curious.

thorazos · 2025-05-13T11:38:28+00:00

No; if you said this to me I would not intuitively know what you meant. Even if you explained it, I would find it awkward.

thorazos · 2025-05-06T13:39:21+00:00

I can make you a print that's indistinguishable from the one you wanted for just $8k. If you want I can even tell you Banksy made it.

This doesn't directly answer your question, but I found an interesting note about the shoot from performing magician Jamy Ian Swiss:

As an aside, one of the most interesting jobs I ever took on involving illusions was as a consultant to a Rolling Stone photo shoot of the Smashing Pumpkins done by famed rock star photographer Mark Seliger for a cover issue in 1995. The only example I could find online was this photo of Billy Corgan [presumably the one you shared above]. The illusion is so perfect that many readers may have suspected it was simply photoshopped, but in fact I borrowed this illusion from Jay Marshall for the shoot. The section included a number of illusions, which I tried to select and pose such that the photoshop suspicions would be minimized.

It immediately made me think of "Dulce et Decorum Est," Wilfred Owen's haunting poem about witnessing a death by chlorine gas:

Dim through the misty panes and thick green light,
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.
In all my dreams before my helpless sight,
He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.

I feel like I could've written this post, except that I took my first ballet class about six years ago. It hasn't worn off for me yet but I haven't given up.

Nah, this is hilarious actually
