On a personal note, I also took my glass off for my wedding. They normally look sexy, but weddings change their status to “tacky.” That last sentence, however, does not look tacky. At all.

…the mind-control serum didn’t work, did it?

Personally, I find that a pretty reasonable thing to experience when you work for–or in my case, live with–a mad scientist. You get pretty used to weirdness when you spend any length of time around mad scientists, or artists of any stripe. (Yes, Shaenon, I’m looking at you and your husband here, nyao…)

Then again, when one is a cat, as I am, one has a totally different standard of comparison for weird, nyao.

“Fasten, then zip, or zip, then fasten,” indeed! ^_^

(Anyone who gets that reference gets a free cookie!)

I suggest you take a look at your wedding photos and/or video if you went through your wedding w/o your glasses! Who knows what surprises you may discover that you overlooked at the time!

In *that* case, you want to make sure the lipstick is still pointy, and delicately use the point-edge to get the upper edge. After that, do as the man says- but be carefll not to get your teeth of around the lips.

 ….. what?

Faces are trickier and more sensitive than legs. Also, she’s a mad biologist. The number of logical explanations for him not being able to transfer leg-shaving experience to his face are endless, ranging from, “Her body hair is – naturally or unnaturally – so fine and light that she doesn’t actually bother shaving her legs,” to, “Her usual shaving method involves heavily engineered and exactingly trained gerbils, and he’s afraid to get them near his face.”

The question in my mind is what there is about briefs that’s sufficiently unintuitive that Helen would need them explained. I’m not sure I really want to know the answer, either.

American Gods, best book ever, by the way.

what helen isnt telling dave is that she has a machine to apply makeup for her at the lab. its almost safe to be used on humans.

well. I am horrible at shaving. being a man, this generally means i look scruffy, and or i use a pair of clippers to get rid of my beard. my shaggy, soft, pelt like beard.
