which (until I can find a mathematician to correct me) I shall call a spherical cone, likes me.
I couldn’t ask for more.
If a mathematician, a physicist, or anyone else with a very good understanding of 3D geometry, solid shapes, and the proper names for parts of a ball (Yes, a ball. Not a sphere) reads this, please say hello. I’d really like to know the proper term for the shape I’m imagining.
EDIT:: There’s no way in hell the shape I’m thinking of is a spherical cone. It’s actually more like a three-sided pyramid with a curved base.
My head hurts.

still stuck in the rut of depression. Very definitely not asking for help, or sympathy, just letting y’all know I haven’t topped myself. I’ll be around as and when I can, but if nobody sees me for a week or two, don’t panic.
Panicking is rarely a good idea.

Following on from mudlarksmile’s suicide question, here’s mine.
Assuming you were writing a suicide note, what would it say? If you’re not the suicidal kind, imagine one of your loved ones has topped themselves. What would you like to read in their note?

I’d typed something, clicked “Preview” to see how it looked, then changed my mind about posting it here on 43T, but by that screen there’s no “cancel” button, so I have to type something here so as not to leave a “this comment was deleted”.

Yesterday I figured out why I’m missing Violet Sharp more and more.

I just had to stop watching a music video because other people might be doing the same thing.
That isn’t actually as weird as it sounds.

a variation on my first game.
This time we start with a four-letter word, still changing one letter each turn, but we have a specific target word in mind. F’instance, we might begin with “cat” (If cat had four letters. :P) and aim to end with “dog”, so we’d go “cat”, “cot”, “cog”, “dog”. Make sense? btw, we can change the order of the letters.
Plus, whoever achieves the target gets to choose the next pair of words.
For now, I’ll start with “Dick”, and we’re aiming for “Jane”.

Submerged in the tub, surrounded by bubbles of blueberry and Valerian, smoking a fat cigar whilst reading The Raven.
And then it was over.

How come the skin around one’s anus is often times darker than the skin elsewhere on one’s body?

Gentlemen, what would you like your wife/girlfriend/booty call/hooker’s bra size to be?

Ladies, assuming any required reduction or enlargement would be pain-free, scar-less and as natural-looking as you’d want, what would you like your bra size to be?

We’ve all seen this before. I start the game by choosing a four letter word, for example “DICK”, then the next person changes one letter (and rearranges letters if necessary) to make a new word.
EDIT::

Ladies, what’s your bra size?
If you feel this is a sexist or impertinent question, refer back to the one I asked eight months ago.

I can’t promise to be here daily (that should come as no surprise, given my recent attendance issues) but I’ll do what I can.
Now, if someone would be so good as to explain what I’m supposed to do…

I posed a question over here, and I’ve gotten three different answers so far.
Any more offers? Who can remind me what my name is?

I’ve a bunch of cheers to give away, I don’t have time to find suitable places to leave them, I’m not going to be around for the next five days, and if I don’t use them tonight I’ll lose them.
So, who wants them and has time to pass them on to other people?
