[HPFGU-OTChatter] Small rant about cosmetics' ads

[yael oren]

  Neil quoted: "It's like I have a billion lashes, all outrageously full and soft!"
   
  And then translated: "She looks like a rabbit trapped in headlights at the best of times, but, to me, this conjures up an image of two mutant tarantulas nestling in her eye sockets.  Does anyone else think,  '100,000,000 "outrageously" full and soft eyelashes - that's way too much eyelash for one human head!!!'?"

As a mathematician, I couldn't resist (Simon, back me up here!) Neil, those are 1,000,000,000 eyelashes. You're missing a zero.
