What is the deal with long nails

[Timsup2nothin]

That reminds me of a scene from an American morning show where the moderators acted all shocked because in France 50 shades of gray is all-open for 12-year-olds. That was so cute

Also, @Farm Boy, fabulously put. Gori was right - you are a poet!

Is that the one where they "interviewed the French twelve year old" who said the movie was okay but the sex was pretty pedestrian?

Ah wait, this is from Tonight with John Oliver, isn't it? But I think John Oliver made that last part up, right? Though I laughed hysterically when he made the French impression of the 12-year-old.
Just checked, in Germany it is only for 16+ olds and that is actually kinda more strict than the American rating, since the German 16+ means no one under that age, even with parents, whereas the American R means with parents it is okay (though the age is with 17 a bit higher).

Ah. Yeah that probably was a little mixing of John Oliver with the morning news...

My girlfriend getting ready for work leads to a a lot of Good Morning America and you too Tim even though you can't be bothered putting on your glasses...so a lot of morning show stuff is floating in a somewhat vague soup somewhere in my head.

Sounds lovely

!!!!

Oh good lord you two. Don't make me bust out "schlob."

I categorize long nails with other feminine trappings/hobbles, like skirts, heels, long hair, and larger breasts - they're a sort of low-level self-bondage, and I like that in a girl.

 

[Phrossack]

Depends on the length, but I see them as claws. Kinda weird and creepy. If they're painted, *definitely* weird and creepy.

 

[Kennigit]

Yup I don't get it.

I swear I thought I posted on cfc about it before but I couldn't find it with "nails" or "fingernails" or "rip off" in my search

So I'll post again: those long nails always look like to me they are ready to rip off and cause massive pain

 

[s0nny80y]

When they tap them,
sounds like typing up a regretfully inform you letter.

That's an interesting point. Though it need not by tied to bondage like Bondage, it sort of ropes an element of status with a degree of submissiveness.

 

[Farm Boy]

Not tied, but instead tie-d.

 

[Borachio]

Festooned with ties?

 

[Farm Boy]

Could be entertaining.

 

[Manfred Belheim]

As silly as they are, they're nowhere near as silly as FAKE long nails which clearly sit 2 or 3 mm above where the nail grows from and don't look remotely near.

 

[Borachio]

Anyone here a fan of fake eyelashes? How about hair extensions?

Depends what you mean by fake.

If a girl with blond eyelashes that can't be seen from a foot away wants to apply mascara that (as advertised) lengthens, thickens, darkens, whatever...good on her.

If she feels like she just doesn't have enough eyelashes to work with and sticks on something that works for her...good on her.

If I look at a girl and recognize that if she blinks while I'm kissing her her mascara is going to leave score lines dividing my cheek into columns and people will think I'm going out for Halloween as a spreadsheet...not a fan.

I don't know about Tim, but I'd be inclined to let Kirstie Maldonado tutor me in Excel.

Balloon sculptures might work for you but they don't fit my learning style.

Also I'm really badass at excel anyways.
