I fancied starting a topic - my first - and so I thought I'd ask...
if you could have one superpower, what would it be?
I have two answers. One is that I'd enjoy the ability to change shape, because I'd enjoy answering everybody's personal adverts with exactlywhat they were looking for! Think of the happiness I could bring into the world!
My second answer is more mundane: I'd like to be able to speak any language.
I'm currently trying to think of a method by which I can use this thread to post yet another picture of my behind... I'm working on it...
Anyway, will anyone else bite? Ever thought about what superpower you'd like?

Kiss_Me, thank you so much for indulging us! Your answers are marvellous and almost poetic.
Please don't think I'm taking this lightly or extracting the Michael, but blogs are full of personalised memes. If you ever got fed up telling people what their name felt like, then you could set up an automated program that would create a random sensation when they inputted their name!
Thanks again. I'm off to bite some hair!

As for palindromes, you can't beat "redivider"!
Love these unfamiliar words - shapely buttocks? Why, that's me!
Good words: "haeccity" (this-ness), "paniety" (being bread), myrmecoid (ant-like) and a useful word for when you're discussing creepy-crawlies and don't need people telling you that spiders aren't insects, "arthropod" (having segmented legs).
Definitions are vague by the way, especially that last one.
Alan Coren once wrote a story about how a new poem was needed in a hurry for "Through The Looking Glass" but the publishers didn't have time to proof-read it:
T'was chilly and the slimy roads
Did shine and shimer in the rain
All misty were the bird's abodes
And the cold grassy plain
Beware of January, my son!
The hoar-frost's bite, the...

Aw, you didn't have to single them out. My bottom is feeling self-conscious and unloved as it is!
I quite like this about chat rooms. If we were all in the same room talking to each other, I would be the equivalent of the person who wanders through saying "everybody look at me! Look at my bottom!" And no-one deigns to comment, politely continuing with their drinks. Which is actually pretty accurate - I am like that anyway!

Although I endeavour to maintain a reasonable standard of grammar and syntax and wince when others don't, there is also the question of poor manners. I'm reluctant to comment on the English use of others because other people have a different way of expressing themselves. I don't know anything about the contributors to this site other than their text and, as they say in the US, "assume" makes an "ass" out of "u" and "me".
On the other hand, I was tempted to question a PM I had, supposedly from Admin. It was complaining about my putting my e-mail addess in my adverts - something which I don't believe I did. Re-reading the PM I realised that it was very poorly worded and punctuated and this made me sceptical - was it a real admin post by someone in a hurry who hadn't read their message through, or was it a scam? I didn't know whether to report it (and risk offending someone less snotty than myself).
Thinking about it, I'm in two minds whether to post this...

Although Springfield's location is never revealed, there are many jokes and references to its location. In one episode it's mentioned as being in North Kentucky (an American friend of mine told me that the accent is completely wrong for this to be true - but that can't be the gag, surely?).

Well, it's art, you see. Plus, it's a mock-up, so if no-one took photos it would all be a bit of a waste of time. Whether it's a waste of time anyway is another matter but one would have to have a heart of stone not to feel that this is something David Blaine should try for his next stunt.
I do have a photo of my thighs but it's a bit rude. Sorry...
I did post it as I'm desparate for adoration (or even acknowledgement). But then I read the AUP guidelines and I don't fancy getting into trouble.
Oh, and it's the iliac crest. One thing I've learned at art school (I'm the model).

Hello. I was surprised to discover that I'd been sent a post by Martin, because I didn't receive one. Either something got lost on the way or (more likely) I haven't a clue.
Thanks for putting me on the list, anyway. As it happens, I can't make it which is a shame as I would have loved to have met you all.
