As long as you aren't actually cleaning people, sewing them up, and stuffing with doll parts, your list seems ok. It can be read in too many ways....

Treasenuak · 11-20-2008, 10:26 AM

I knew the stuffed body parts would get you. I want to find or make soft sculpture genitals that I can stick body jewelry in and photo for my blog. And make pierced dolls. Like, one of me. And an emo one. and a leatherman one.

slightly manic today

Ok you guys were right. I need to go get stripper. For my wood.

Srsly tho'. This lacquer and whatever else they have spilled on top of this dresser is starting to piss me off.

Thanks. I would still be trying to hand sand that stuff if it weren't for some wise dwellars.

I have a crush on John Barrowman.
I'm now watching old Torchwood episodes on YouTube.
I wouldn't fancy him if he was straight - it's a fag-hag thing.

First I fancied Captain Jack Harkness. Well, he's handsome and very sexual.
Then I kept seeing Barrowman interviews, and he kept really making me laugh.
He's so open and so filthy (which I always love in a man)

So now I have a crush on a celeb like a teenager.
Sigh.

Right, back to Torchwood. Back to imagining being seduced by the Cap'n.

Clodfobble · 11-25-2008, 06:09 PM

Is Captain Jack the one who is supposed to be American? The Torchwood characters had a crossover bit in the Doctor Who season finale, and that guy's accent kept cracking me up.

Sundae · 11-25-2008, 06:21 PM

He is American! John Barrowman was born in Scotland and grew up in America - that's the accent he has in everyday life.
He moved from Glasgow to Joliet in '76 (aged 8) and didn't return to the UK until 1990.

Blame Illinois I say.

ETA - my apologies. It turns out his accent has been described by other people as Mid-Atlantic. It is true that this is how he speaks usually, except when he is with his family. I'm sure they can tell his Glaswegian accent isn't quite pukka either!

Clodfobble · 11-25-2008, 09:51 PM

People from Glasgow are called Glaswegians? Man, I'm learning all sorts of interesting things today.

OH! Speaking of, I've been meaning to mention--and now that it's come up in my mind, I'll just do it here rather than dig up the appropriate thread because I'm lazy--just a short while after reading your explanation of the conventions of "panto," one of my son's favorite television programs (Bunnytown) ran a new episode which did the whole "He's right behind you!" "Oh no he's not!" "Oh yes he is!" bit. I was so happy to realize I was picking up on something I would have missed before.

In Scotland, Edinburgh specifically, they ate called Weedgies. If that sounds like a term of endearment, consider that it's usually proceeded by soap dodging and followed by scum.

I love it when something I've read in the Cellar manifests itself in real life! Pleased to be of service.

Of course I know the proper term for people form Manchester, but I figure it would be cheating if I joined in.

You know what people from Liverpool are called?

(apart from yobs?)

Beatles?

Aliantha · 11-26-2008, 12:36 AM

Liverpuddlians? Not sure about the spelling either.

ZenGum · 11-26-2008, 02:25 AM

Well done Ali, and I wouldn't expect a banana bender to be able to spell anyway

Well my knowledge came from a chap I used to chat with from Liverpool, so that just goes to show it's not what you know but who you know.

As to my spelling, well that's just a disaster these days. Since I stopped working and am no longer studying, on top of having a pretty huge dose of placenta brain, I find I'm having trouble getting in touch with all those little keys in my mind that tell me what letter goes where when I'm spelling.

It's actually distressing me somewhat as I once considered myself to be a pretty stellar speller.
