It’s now new. In fact, it’s archaic. Ancient Greek. Which is why you haven’t heard it before. |

I learned it a few years back from Girl Genius comic. A "gas light comedy", Girl Genius is set in a steam punk world where Mad Science rules and some people have "The Spark", the ability to make clockwork robots and steam powered airships. Lavishly illustrated published on paper, then online, I highly recommend starting at the beginning. I have issue 0. It's the introduction to the world and Transylvania Polytechnic University. The effort to send people to the Americas by air is mentioned. Bigger and bigger catapults have been tried but the test subjects from the local prison seem to be burning up in the atmosphere. More testing is indicated. |

The Greeks had a word for it. ( romantic languages advertisement at college with a picture of an orgy ) It's a good word. Far better than thic. |

Why isn't Wallace Carothers's birthday a national holiday? |

I used to make that stuff. It still makes me proud to see a product I had a part in creating at work on such a lovely individual. (Message edited by xbduck on January 28, 2018) |

If we need licensing and background checks for CONCEALED carry...shouldn't there be similar processes in place for OPEN spandex? Just sayin'... |

Speaking as one who would be affected by legislation to ban ugliness, I protest your invitation to mess with our lives more by government. Yes, I would very much prefer not to see Rosie O'Donnell in skin tight lycra. Very very much. Or topless. ( not to pick on Rosie, she's just a famous person ) But if Rosie in spandex is the price for Gal Gadot in yoga pants....... I vote freedom. I can always look away. |

Fortune passes everywhere. Beauty also. My beholding eye is not yours. That said, I'm a peep of Wal-Mart. I've had better and lesser days there. Sometimes I wish they sold eye bleach... I'll take the average and go. |

You're right, government meddles too much already. Me, I know better than to expose folks to me in spandex - I know *I* wouldn't want to see me in it, so I don't subject anyone else to it! |
