Dear Elemental,
Your cats are very very pretty, and so are your banana trees. It is difficult for me to look at the latter without being able to frolic around them and prune them, however.
How frequently do they fruit, out of curiosity? Are they little bananas or big bananas?

They are Lady Fingers if I remember correctly. Because banana production is a part of our economy, only certain varieties are allowed to be grown in gardens in order to prevent the spread of disease. In fact, there are actually quarantines and restrictions on the moving of plants.
As for how frequently they produce fruit... When they're fully matured they produce one bunch which then needs to be cut down when it's ready to prevent fruit bats from eating it. Unfortunately, the plant (they're not a tree) will only produce fruit once, so we cut them down to make room for the little ones. I have no idea when we'll next get a bunch as I don't believe any of ours are flowering right now, despite being practically fully grown.
They either need it to get hotter first or wetter. One of the two.

The wearing of underwear or not is not a requirement for 'wearing a kilt correctly'. the kilt in itself is an item of clothing, and the 'correct' wearing of it does not necessitate the non-wearing of underwear.
The 'incorrect' wearing of a kilt would be if he wrapped it around his head, or hiked it up under his armpits, but the wearing of underwear under the kilt does not mean he's not wearing the kilt correctly.

Traditionally, nothing is worn beneath the kilt, but that doesn't make wearing underwear under the kilt 'wrong' per se.
As Pheehelm said, if asked what is worn under the kilt, the response could either be 'Nothing, everything's in perfect working order', or 'my socks and my shoes'.
Whether a man goes commando or not under his kilt is his own business, same as you wouldn't ask a woman if she goes commando when wearing a skirt.

The main difference between the two examples would be that wearing the corset over the jumper would cause the originally intended use of the corset to be compromised, whereas the wearing (or not as the case may be) of underwear under the kilt has no effect on the intended use of the kilt.

It's more than possible to wear the corset like that without ruining the intended point of the corset, but that's kind of beside the point. You're not a true Scotsman unless you don't wear anything under your kilt! Yes, I am being facetious.

Me with my brothers (both younger than me) and my mom. At my aunt's house again. This time for my mom's 50th boirthday.
Helping with my youngest brother's Eagle Project for Boy Scouts.
At one of my best friend's wedding. I was best man. My hair was tied back for this, so I look a little different. Second from the right if you can't find me.
Picking my youngest brother up for the simple reason of I can.
Me with my longest friend, the night before he left to go on active duty two years ago. He's in the Navy, and has been in Okinawa the whole time. He's due to be out early next year.

Re: You! (A picture/Media thread) Thread XXXI: Roman Numerals Make Everything Fancy
So apparently I have posted no pictures since the beer pong tournament.
That was months ago.
Here goes!
We had a Hallowe'en costume contest. This is me giving my victory speech after winning "Scariest Costume" (All the actual scary costumes didn't show up?)
The prize was a plastic purple cup shaped like a skeletal hand holding a skull, filled with delicious alcohol of some sort.
We started making a skating rink outside our rez! It's not quite working yet, but all we need to do is put the tarp over the boards and then fill it with water to freeze... once it gets cold enough again. That's me at the top.
2 friends came up to visit the 2 of us in Montreal!
The Inter-Rez Council put on a Coffee House talent show. I played violin!
My friend who visited left his shirt. So I made a "found item" post in the theme that our rez has decided on: put the item on your head, point at it, make a face, and take a picture. Literally every "found item" post on facebook now is a variation of this.
We had a rez vs rez trivia war. Which got progressively more difficult, as it was at the campus pub, which has quite affordable and good beers. We got second. I did well personally, but not as well as a few others. I'm useless when it comes to pop culture...
A bunch of Americans didn't go home for American Thanksgiving, so we had a small Thanksgiving dinner which was amazing. There were like, 5 Americans and a whole pile of loving Canadians, French, Brits, Turks, Egyptians and Chinese!
It was delicious.
CHRISTMAS TIME! This is most everyone in my rez! I swear I'm in this photo somewhere.
And this is my floor!
We tried to do a serious victorian-style family photo, but a few people didn't really get it... :smallbiggrin:
Yaaaay so much of me!
