We weren't initially referring to male-female
relations. I still am not, but I'll bring up, in
a jocular sense, the old cartoons of a guy with a
club dragging a gal by the hair ... .

Now-a-days, you would see the cartoon with the woman dragging the man by
the hair. But, let's let this thread drop, for the time being, and move
on.

That cartoon has been done.
See https://tinyurl.com/retrograde1 and
https://tinyurl.com/retrograde0 (especially
funny that it comes from clipart.com school edition).

Not to mention Henry IV, Part I.

True, but Old English and Middle English had to develop, then die before Shakespear's English came into useage.

As with Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons, if you
credit that sort of thing, they didn't fully
die off but interbred without anyone taking
over completely for a long time if ever. There
are still dialectical differences with terms
and usages dating from long ago, mostly
eradicated but still popping up here and there
in isolated locations.

I think it was in a Kmart where I gagged on an
example of such overperfumage.

I can't hardly take going down the detergents and other cleaning
products aisle of a grocery store. Garden shops with the plant foods and pesticides are another area I try to avoid. All of the above are just as
bad as a heavily perfumed person walking by.

For sure. One genre I particularly hate is
dishwash products - why are dishwasher soaps so
strongly scented and nasty? For me, I prefer to
rinse the dishes I use after their run through the
cycle, just to get rid of the smell (and taste).
And liquids for the sink - phew. When Dawn first
came out, I welcomed the fake-Rieslingy fragrance
as relief from the citrusy and floral smells of
earlier liquids, but now I taste it and its
analogues everywhere - households and restaurants
alike. Grown to hate the stuff too.

I'd just as soon there were no claimed basis in
reality, and that was that.

Makes it easier to enjoy the story for what it is, instead of trying to figure out what was actual reality, what was made up.

And then you can explore metaphors and plot
stuff without wondering "is it real or is it
Memorex?"

If one bothers with taglines. I always thought them
supernumerary. Oh.

Some of them actually relate to the discussion, in a wry (not rye) sort
of way.

Which is another reason why taglines are
subject to discussion and moderation in
this echo.

It's getting there, not to the point of being common place.

Well, it's a few thou and won't get mainstream
until it's a few hundred. But that day will come
pretty soon - guide animals will be a relatively
expensive luxury.

I forgot about Peter Max but at the time thought
he was the strangest of the lot, actually.

Strange, but you could usually figure ut what his subject was. Some of
the others, like Jackson Pollack, it was impossible.

Well, Pollock was never a pop artist nor even
until fairly recently a popular one.

I ever even saw it clearly. On, it might have
been a case of Brillo.

Somebody planning a major clean up?

If I'd fallen over and busted the thing, maybe.

...

Was it full of Brillo? (G) Somebody cleaned up on it.

Nup, it was empty, as with so much of his
self-styled art.

Or, cleaned out.

Properly seasoned tacu-tacu can be a fine thing.

Probably so, but if Steve doesn't want cilantro, I don't cook with

it.
Votevver.

Whatever keeps him happy, if it's no cilantro, that's easy as I don't
care for too much of it either. OTOH, if it's coffee--he makes it
himself. If it's brussels sprouts, cooked is out for him (but I like
them that way, unless they're cooked to mush). He will eat them raw,
thin sliced, in a salad.

You could make little tiny dishes of cole slaw.

Hi Michael,

I'm not surprised that it's been done before; I just hadn't seen it.

NC has some pockets of older English in use. The Harker's Island "hoi
toider" (high tider) area is one we learned about when we lived down on
the coast. I know other areas (parts of Appalachia) have similar older
English dialects in use.

I think it was in a Kmart where I gagged on an
example of such overperfumage.

dishwash products - why are dishwasher soaps so
strongly scented and nasty? For me, I prefer to

I try to get either scent free or lightly scented if possible.

We have some of that in the camper but once it's used up, I'll use
something else. Trouble is, it's a concentrate so a couple of drops go a
long way and using up the bottle is taking a good while.

I'd just as soon there were no claimed basis in
reality, and that was that.

I try to be careful with them.

We're happy with the version of slaw his mom makes (and taught me how to
do). We have tried others, in restaurants, but never found one quite as
good (but had some come close). Just a matter of taste, I guess.

That's the basic one I've seen quite often.
