Steel - It's actually a trend right now for skirts to be longer in the back. Maybe if you bought some like that, they would work out for you?

I saw bunny ears marked down to a dollar and couldn't resist...

That would be my boyfriend off to the side, trying to give me bunny ears with his fingers, but failing.

Haha, yeah Cherry, but I has no money for expensive plus sized clothes right now. I used to get a 40% discount when I worked at Lane Bryant and Fashion Bug. But no discounts for poorly paid substitute teachers.

Haha cherry those ears look like your mene ears.

So tights... I think I know what you mean now o.o those thicker leathery feeling ones?

What?

Found this:

Pantyhose are sheer stockings that have go up the waist although
they make low rise pantyhose if you want wear something that shows the belly. The name pantyhose implies that there a pant build in the stockings so it is not necessary to wear underpants, but make sure the hose say that they contain a cotton crotch. These would be appropriate for peep toes, high heels and slingbacks. If you wear slingbacks the strap may slide up an down the heel, causing irritation on the stocking or your heel. Pantyhose are worn on more
dressy, evening occasions. Sometimes people wear them because
they have a little support and warmth and can be .worn under pants, jeans
etc.
Tights are knit stockings that go up to the waist. Most often you wear underwear. They can be thick and opaque , heavier knits (cable), or
lacey knits. The heavier knit would look good with pumps or heeled
loafers. Tights generally warmer than pantyhose and worn for daytime or to make look a little more casual. Some do have support, but most do not. The lacey or opened pattern can be worn at night and are quite sexy. Thick knit tights make your legs look a little heavier than they actually are.

Yeah, now that I think about it, they do feel kind of leathery!

Well that is interesting. I have never worn pantyhose without panties.

Poet's being clueless again.

Think of it this way, Poet.

Pantyhose = sheer
Tights = not

Simple enough for you? If it's thin enough to see though, it's pantyhose. Of course I could confuse the issue by telling you lovely people than in the UK it's tights and that's it, none of this pantyhose milarky!

So I was half right... they're... half underwear sorta...

Jelly, always happy to correct me

I'm helping :P

Oh yes... "helping" of course

Haha, jelly. Here we like to have lots of different names for things.

Well I know here we've got like 20 words for rain

I don't understand dinner versus supper. Supper sounds forever too Southern for me, so I just avoid it.

HA! No-one understands that xD There's a real class divide here between dinner and lunch, and when you bring supper into the equation too?

It's so silly! Why can't it just be breakfast, lunch, then dinner. Divided by time of day. So much simpler!

When in doubt... bring pizza. It works as dinner, and it's as classy as you need it.

A lot of the UK lunch/dinner thing is about the midday meal. Snooty people insist that it's lunch, dinner is the evening meal! But I find it gets called either. When I was at school, that long break was dinner break, though you might also call it lunch time! But in general the term used was dinner. Dinner lady, dinner money, etc.

Plus, as a kid, the meal you went home to in the evening was tea. ;D

there was a song we sang at primary school, and it was pretty much country-wide, I think.

At half past three we go home to tea
Or maybe at quarter to 4
And 10 pairs of feet go running down the street
And in at their own front door

And it's rough and tumble, rattle and noise,
Mothers and fathers, girs and boys,
baby in the carrycot, cat by the stove,
A little bit of quarreling but lots of love.

There was a second verse which no-one remembers so well, I'm sure. xD

Lord Jesus taught that his children aught
to forgive one another each day.
And to give and take for his dear sake

And it's rough and tumble, rattle and noise,
Mothers and fathers, girs and boys,
baby in the carrycot, cat by the stove,
A little bit of quarreling but lots of love.
so help us Lord we pray

All UK primary schools were Church of England (apart from a very small amount of Catholic schools) so all the songs we got taught had religion in there somewhere.

But yeah, teatime is the evening meal if you're a kid, and remains so for many, for always. Dinner in the evening is something a bit posher, like if you go out to a restaurant for a meal, or have people round. Hence the class divide, people wanting to climb that social ladder will be at pains to not use the term "teatime" unless they're refering to Sunday afternoon.

Sunday though...Sunday lunch is Sunday lunch, no matter if every other sit down noon meal ever is something you call dinner.

I define it like this:

Meal 1 - Breakfast
Meal 2 - Lunch
Evening - Dinner

See dinner and supper vie for attention around here. Dinner supposedly refers to the largest meal of the day. Well, in school, we only get 30 minutes to eat lunch. So that is never, ever the largest meal of the day. And of course, tea a meal around here, it's just a drink. Haha.

Here's a picture of me from a music video I acted in about Christmas. Basically, i'm a Scrooge. Get it? Cause Christmas? Oh...

Haha, awesome, APB! What was the music video for?

It was for a final for a film course I had to take last semester. Basically, it was What Is Christmas? by Trans Siberian Orchestra with me acting in the lead being angry at Christmas whilst my friend who is the angel basically torments me because of it. Oh, and it wasn't my final either. I did a separate film entirely with me directing it.

Nother picture of me from my on campus film debut and the film i'm mostly known for:

Very cool.

About as cool as kool-aid.

OH YEAH!

BAH HUMBUG!

What a happy cheery smile you have, APB. ;D

Did you ever upload it to youtube?
