I read them for the grades.

I wish I could remember who I swiped it off. Cool gifs just keep on giving. And this was first thing I thought of when I saw the photograph.

It's a crab, and I guess it's waving sea anemones. No idea why it would do that. Swiped this gif off Groupthink the other day; it is incredibly cute.

If it seems as if he's written out a script where you're meant to play a role, I would consider it a bad thing.

Then you'd love the old Pierre Cardin bottles from the 70s — you can still find that classic scent in drugstores, I think — it's intended for men, but that doesn't matter.

These bottles remind me an awful lot of some of the perfumes they sell in the airport in Dubai — not only are the bottles over the top, but they come in their own little matching storage boxes.

Ah, someone else remembers Aunt Cynthia. The first and the best of the genre.

I just say "beautiful child/children" and leave it at that — assuming the gender opens yet another can of worms...

It's not, but speaking from experience, the ear for music is very closely connected to the ear for language. If you can pick up what you hear and repeat it back perfectly, that's a huge advantage if you really decide to study a language.
