Hey guys I have  random question. Im actaully looking to either make a face mask or to purchase a face mask. I have been looking for a pattern of some sort to make my own face mask, or some place in new york where I might be able to find a Black face mask...almost like a medical mask. Any suggestions would be much appreciated...^_~

I need help. I . . . I've been bitten by a Twilight plotbunny. I'm not in the fandom. I'm not even in the hatedom. My position, I suppose, can best be described as in the snarkdom -- I can enjoy the parodies and jokes and enjoy the movie in the same snarky spirit as watching Plan 9 from Outer Space or the Star Wars holiday special. Sure, there's the odd moment in the following days where you pause and wonder how the hell someone could genuinely write that with a straight face, but I digress . . .

The source of the angst that drives the series, as far as I can tell is that Bella is all "I am a mass of raging teenage hormones and you're the hottest guy to ever register below room temperature." and Edward's all "I am hella attracted to you but what with the vampire super strength and all, I fear I would hurt you!".

To which my foremost thought is: Why doesn't Bella just chain him down and have her way with him?

Can someone assure me that this has already been done? Because the thought came from the rather annoyingly persistent part of my brain that went "That suit looks like Umbridge skinned a Care Bear" and didn't let up until I wrote it. If it already exists, I think my brain will calm down.

I'm interested in her having possibly been a slave when she first came to America, or (and this is just an idea) having been bought by an abolitionist-type in the South.


I didn't know 'abolitionist-types' were the ones buying slaves. Also, good job trying to gank a plot that's already been done once in game. You just keep trying to attach yourself to that one character and jump your ass on the angst wagon.

I'm also confused as to why Bast is childishly calling people stupid and posting pictures of Edward Cullen...

/annoyed and random post is annoyed and random.

My mom just got her Christmas Harry & David magazine, and I found some things that actually looked good.  However, as they're from Harry & David, they're nowhere near vegan.  So I wanted to check and see if you guys had some good recipes that I could use.  And anyway, homemade is always better than bought-from-a-magazine.

The first was a pumpkin cheesecake that had a sour cream layer on top.  It looked delicious.

The next was these fruit galettes - the description is "we bake these poist, delicate cookies very gently to prevent browning or crisping."  And then they have different fruit fillings.  Like little cookies fruit sandwiches.  They also had some spiced creme shortbread cookies that were similar - creme fillings between two cookies.

And the third were cheesecake bites.  Now, I'm not a very fancy baker, but they looked really good.  And I'm getting decent at making those peppermint patties from vegweb in tiny little muffin tins with paper liners so they actually come out of the pan.  But I have no idea how to make tiny little pieces of cheesecake encased in chocolate.  And they had different cheesecake flavors - pumpkin, chocolate turtle, peppermint and gingerbread.

Any help would be wonderful!!  I would love to wow all the ladies at work!

Hi Everyone, I'm new to this community. Just started getting into Lush a month or so ago. I was hoping to get some recommendations of some skin care items to get samples of or try next time I go to the store.

I have eczema on my face. Mostly on my cheeks and around my nose and sometimes on my chin. I also get hormonal breakouts around my chin/jaw line area and also on my shoulders. My forehead tends to be oily. So I need something that won't dry my skin out to irritate the eczema, but something that won't break me out either. 

I'm definitely going to get the Grease Lighting spot gel next time for the breakouts. Any other recommendations? 

Thanks!

Okay, I actually can see Dean Winchester turning tricks to make ends meet, but I really doubt that would be the first solution that crosses his mind. He's an accomplished con man and an inveterate gambler, and I think he might even try his hand at honest labor before he takes up hooking on the street corner.

And even if he did, I doubt he would angst loudly about it when Sam comes to rescue him. Not that he wouldn't necessarily be fucked up about it, but he's the kind of guy who tends to take a practical approach to matters of survival.

And seriously, fucking strangers for cash would be far from the worst thing that's ever happened to him. Forty years in Hell, remember? A little perspective would be nice.

This whole thing is really annoying because I think this topic could make a great story if people would lay off the BAWWWWing.

Have returned to my graphics programs to find that Elements is still tempremental when it comes to adding text, thankfully IrfanView can help me out there, but I'm experimenting with a different layout for preview pictures, one that's easier to get right without Gimp. And I think Gimp is done for, at least in its current version. Starting it up yesterday caused everything to grind to a halt which was remedied only by the laptop's power switch. I will not be venturing back. Despite these setbacks, I managed to produce four more sets of school colours, based on universities in Hong Kong:

Dear specific author of Sky High,

Okay, there are few wrong things with your fic. First of all, Layla is a kind girl, and contrary to popular belief in slash universes, the women aren't necessarilly hysterical bitches. Specially Layla. She cares about Will and Warren, and if they decide they're liking each other, she won't freak out, get mad, whine or make fun of them - remember how much she hates labels?

Will is slow, yes, but he isn't ridiculously dumb. He is oblivious, he takes time to notice it when people are into him, but if Warren said in his face, after sleeping with him, that he broke-up with Ice-chick for someone "more, let's say masculine", he wouldn't consider another girl. No one is that stupid.

Also, it's hard to believe that Warren would kiss Will in front of Layla just for the sake of kissing him, knowing that Layla is his girlfriend, and specially not caring if she runs away infuriated. Even though he's never admitting it, he cares about Layla just as much as he cares about Will - which he will never admit either.

Last but not least, if Will's father sees Layla running away from their house, he's surely as Hell going to ask her what happened, since they were raised together and Layla has a nice relationship with Will's parents.

And jfc, the moment their parents go to Will's room to check what happened, the least thing that Will's father is caring is that "Will is acting submissive" in the make-out session, and I'm positive Will's mother isn't going to take pictures and congratulate him. That makes absolutely no fucking sense, and the fact that Warren's father is a supervillian that was beat by Will's father doesn't make him welcome in the Stronghold house.

No love at all,
Me.

This might be a YMMV thing but does it bother anyone else when a RPF fic is devoted to something that (in real life) the person experienced during their childhood, is not something they have ever talked about but it's public knowledge?  The thing is that I actually like the author and generally comment on her fic but I look at the fic with zero comments so it's not just me.

I'm trying to be vague to not draw attention to the author so let's say the scenario is witnessing a shooting.

I have several pears that have gotten way over ripe that I'm planning to puree.

Any ideas on what I can do with it? I would particularly like to use it in baked goods.

Dear specific author,

You get points for writing Doctor/Rose/Jack - in theory. Except you lose most of them again for posting the fourth chapter of your fic without providing any links, tags, or other means of finding the first three.

However, the real problems lie within the chapter itself.

Two applications submitted to an AU rp community that I’m at.

I warn you, this is not for sensitive eyes.

You kiddies are old enough to know.. Read at your own risk.

And, I love this community!
