ETA: But in real life, I've known people who used a "BBQ rib" to eat their rice so from that I can see why some characters may use certain other foods as "mouth attachments".

I feel like a looooooooot of SL fashion trends are heavily influenced by anime and manga. A lot of stuff that appears in the big events, anyway. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for helping me figure that out! 😁 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! Most neko stores sold the fish bone lip attachment...I remember trying to make that fit with snake bite piercings, cat eyeliner and face scratches 🙂 Too few facial attachments! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cute! The food makes a lot more sense, though, than the jewelry. Though honestly, I don't dislike that either. Some of the avatars I make could make good use of it. I just haven't gotten around to buying any yet. I've already got so many accessories...the last thing I need to start hoarding is mouth jewels. 😄 They're kind of pretty tho, even if it's not exactly realistic! It's not like anything I do here is realistic, sooooo... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to think they were piercings at first. Then I thought they were necklaces (some have some pretty chunky chains and nameplates and things). Now I just...roll with it.

I guess if it were manga, each chain would be connected to a different weapon that you could regurgitate at will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scylla Rhiadra Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 So, I ran "Scylla Rhiadra" through one of the ChatGPT text generators, and asked for a 500 word essay. It is so uncannily accurate, that I almost feel violated. An excerpt: "In Homer’s Odyssey, Odysseus and his crew encountered the two similarly dangerous situations of Scylla Rhiadra and her counterpart Charybdis. Odysseus was so taken by the beautiful Scylla that he wanted to win her affections, so he requested a love potion from the witch Circe." Well, part of this is wrong. Odysseus should know that he doesn't need a love potion to win my affection. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assume that blinkers must have been an option when they bought their car. I think they need to retest people after they've had their license 20 years. I swear people forget everything they learned in Driver's Ed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because someone is in the passengers seat saying , Turn here! Them saying, no this isn't our turn. Then the other person saying, YES IT IS! \o/ Then them finally just giving in and turning anyways.. hehehehe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
