Yeah, the research that went into would have to be massive. Or he’s a secret astro physicist martian space traveler on the side. Either/or.

The ears are amazing! Are there toothpicks in there at all?

I just thought it was really different and full of information that I’d never think about but that was fascinating at the same time. And there was a lot of accessible (for my right-brained self) science in there that didn’t feel complicated OR forced.

I think it was when pizza started becoming" artisanal."

I did not.

And I thought this was bad.

Oh dear. Oh dear oh dear.

Wait, you think that's bad??!??

Re: Books. I recently finished reading The Martian by Andy Weir. It held my interest (in a genre that doesn’t usually) so I’d recommend it.

Not really funny, but just kind of cool in an “imagine the possibilities” kind of way.

Despite my handle, I pretty much drink wine only. I don’t drink hard alcohol or mixed drinks at all but occasionally I’ll down a Stella Artois or two with Mr. Beer.

No, not braver nor more talented. I just took a class out of sheer boredom once and they taught us that shit. And the roses thing. It was like the cake decorating greatest hits class. So, for our
"final exam" we had to bake a cake that showed each thing we'd learned and practiced. And I did get the basket weave effect…

See I like cheese better than anything. But nobody ever wants to write shit about gays on cheese.

Ohhh, well I’ve mostly heard of it being better for blondes, frankly. Personally, I get a root touch up and some highlights around my face in really small sections (like groupings of 10 hairs or so) and it un-blahs it, as you say, without looking over processed or brassy.

I'm sorry about your lamb cake. I've been there (with a basket weave icing effect that worked perfectly during a practice run.)

That's also what I wonder, about the end game/usage of said cakes. I guess it's just doing it for the idea of doing it? To rile up people and make others miserable.

Hahaha! And you may also be sanding some stuff. And re-grouting.

I’m a brunette, but I have two close friends who do it and my stylist specializes in it. I think it’s great if you can get someone who does a great job, and otherwise...well, the worst case scenario is that it looks like chunky outgrown highlights and nothing like its supposed to. My advice would be to try and find…

This sweet, happy post needed to be ungreyed. :)

Do you think maybe it's a case of one thing happening that someone saw on the news in the past few years and then it just became self-perpetuating?
