I thought my missus and nipper were behind me, but it was some shop girl on her fag break. Fanny Burney was some woman. In 1811, she developed breast cancer, and voluntarily had a mastectomy without any anaesthetic. Conscious throughout, she wrote up a detailed account of the operation. Made a full recovery, too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 shipping: putting two characters together, often from different fantasy universes, often with homo erotic overtones. For instance, Dr Who getting jiggy with Elastigirl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) I think so, yeah. I'm sure someone in to it could find some desperately important nuance of difference between slash and shipping. But it really isn't something I'm interested in, so they would be interchangeable for me. To be honest, it's just what I absorb from being in the house at the same time as the kids. Thor and Batman stuff isn't really top of my interest list. The guys have got a couple of graphics tablets and have got really quite good and the doodles and cartoons. One does simple little sketches that people have turned in to tattoos! Edited August 21, 2018 by chrisp65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but still a good parody of someone falling over and checking if anyone saw. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
