Well! I _was_ going to start a silly little thread about how I’m in love with the new scissors I bought because they cut through bookcloth like it’s butter. But then I Googled “scissors” to try and find a link to the scissors I bought, and I found [this site](http://www.armchair.mb.ca/~scissors/) instead. (work-safe, but not brain- or coochie- or ding-dong-safe) So, of course, I had to share. Though, considering the way my threads usually go, I’ll be sharing it with maybe two of you. Anyway, _ **owwwwwww** _.

not that it matters any more _whimper_ but [these](http://www.gingher.com/G8.htm) are my beautiful scissors

I liked the history.

Is there any way we could turn this into a photo thread for hot goth chicks?

Oooh…I have a pair of those Gingher scissors. Yummy. Like buttuh, indeed!

And my family has been threatened that if they use “Mommy’s shiny scissors” for cutting paper, they will find themselves with a pair of scissors (but not the shiny ones, I’ll use a pair of dull Fiskars) rammed in their crotch. Or eyeball. I’m not picky.

So we can work this around to no hijack at all, if you wish! 😃

Mmmm . . . no. Photos of cute guys in eyeliner are welcome, however. Especially if they’re single and live near Boston. And sumbissive. Mmmm . . . _wanders off to repeatedly jam crotch with something unlike scissors_

Inigo is into fisking? Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
