Arley Yorty. This is a customer’s name. He is a cooky old man. Scarlet Pillows. A line from “Mack the Knife.” Phineas Gage. This contruction worker survived a metal spike through the head, only to live with many psychosi for the rest of his life. Velveteen Rabbit. I don’t know. I like velveteen. ---

> [@Chicago Faucet](#): > > Scarlet Pillows. A line from “Mack the Knife.” Actually, the lyric is “[scarlet billows](http://www.elyrics4u.com/m/mack_the_knife_bobby_darin.htm)”. Your version, though, sounds like someone **SanguineSpider** would share a bed with. 🆒 ---

**AnimistDragon** , from your webpage: “Height: 5’8” - no high heels for me." That is so wrong. My fiance is six feet tall and she still wears her heals. Tall woman + heels = hot model type. Flaunt it baby! Anyway, since I’m here: **Boa Conflictor** 🙂 ---

My halfling bard, now since passed away, would like to offfer up his name, **Thunderbrain Rumbleguts**. Sadly, he has no use for it now, as he was killed after an “accidental” fall down an inn’s stairs. His kazoo, oddly enough, survived. But not for long. ---

Who do I Email to change my SN? **Eleusis** - Well, the only heels I like wearing are 4+". That put me at 6’0" or taller. And that just makes me feel strange - being taller than most people around me. In my social circle, I’m already the tallest female, and taller than 50% of the guys. With those heels, I WOULD be the tallest person. `Course, I do wear them when I gussy up. **Silver Serpentine** ’s still in the lead, as of now. . . ---

I’m just sayin’, is all. I didn’t think you would feel strange about something like that, especially considering that you enjoy tatts and piercings. I personally wouldn’t even think of 5’8" of as “tall” in the first place. As long as you aren’t afraid to wear them when you do get “gussied up”, it’s all good. Cheers ---

Uh, maybe you folks don’t know what duck tape looks like? Or why it’s like _The Force_? It has a dark side, it has a light side (silver, actually - see the OP), and it holds the universe together. If **weasel plus duck tape** doesn’t seem right, how about **kiss my duck-taped asp**? ---

…and all my duct tape has a silver side and an off-white sticky side. Let’s not think about the off-white sticky side of The Force, mm-kay? [sub]sorry.[/sub] ---

> [@radar ralf](#): > > Just doing my bit to help fight ignorance… Duck Tape is a brand name of duct tape. So what? The tape holding the universe together your quote mentions is mostly going to be True Value brand duct tape, or whatever. It wasn’t like Luke and Darth used Duck ™ Brand Force while everyone else was using storebrand. ---
