i wish we could put this to a vote.


su-lin: somehow it's all wrong to describe billy neo as six foot tall because that while accurate doesn't properly convey the darling boy's wistful beauty and undulating grace. ... billy, properly speaking, was like the definition of a line, length and no breadth

minzhi: undulating grace? wistful beauty? do we know the same person?

sl: clearly you have never stood in the 1A classroom door and watched billy neo's sinuous progress back from the toilets. it was one of my life's defining moments.

von: your life must be quite pale and grey.

choonping: She has an internal life, von, something which most people unfortunately for their writing don't.

sl: i accept and admit the pallor, but i stand by what i say

cp: Yup. His beauty is all the more ethereal beside my earthy stumping-about.
