@ polecat. "These are not for you" (superimposed on a photo of flowers)
I’m so alone without you. To call up on the weekends with my cellular phone.

Oh, that makes more sense

The irony is that I bought that shirt when I was bitterly single, but now I am blissfully taken, so I wear that shirt ironically (and because its comfortable).

You stole my powers! 
@Hopey: I can't imagine you bitterly single. It just doesn't click.

Oh, I forgot I took this
◊ at a Feis (Traditional Irish arts fetival/contest thingy) today. Everyone was there to see the dancers so they all went first. I was waiting for ages so I decided to take a photo out of vanity boredom

How cool!

@Ferret: Oh, you play violin?
@Hopey: I still can't imagine it.
@Kesa Yeah Violin/fiddle. I mentioned yesterday how I always say both just to stop anyone from lecturing me on how "huge" the differences are and how I called it the wrong one. People like that actually exist
But aren't they just the same thing played differently?
Anyway, my girlfriend plays the violin, along with the flute and piccolo (which I've been told is basically just a tiny flute). Daisy also plays the violin too, so perhaps you two could talk about that.
I played the violin in fourth grade. I liked it. :)
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.
You called?
@Ferret: I was wondering whether that was a viola or a violin. ![[lol]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lol2v12_4863.png "[lol]"){kind=small}

They are, in my opinion anyway Kesa. But I hear all this, "its the same as one is a human the other is a mammal, you can call one the other but not the other way" or something like that. It makes my head spin. I don't even bother, so I just say both.
Violin, I'm just tiny

I looked it up.
Violin, Cello, Lyre, Double Bass, Welsh Crwth, Nordic Hardingfele and several other instruments ALL fall under the umbrella of Fiddles, and they are ALL descendants of the 10th Century Byzantine Lira. (It is not possible to effectually distinguish between the later empire in Rome and the Byzantine empire centered around Constantinople. For the Byzantines were the Roman Empire, not simply a continuation of it in the East)
The generic name for ALL of the bowed stringed instruments is "viol", an Italian word. When the violin arrived in Ireland and Scotland after the Renaissance it quickly began to replace the small-pipes as a ceilidh instrument.
Here's the thing ... If you try to write "viol" in Gaelic, which was the language of the common people of most of Ireland and Scotland at that time, you have to write "fidheal", because of the different spelling rules and the fact that there is no letter "v" in Gaelic. The "dh" is silent, of course, same as in "ceilidh."
Now when those same Irish and Scots got on the boat and went to America, or England to work, they still called it the same thing, but when English speakers saw the word "fidheal", what they said was.....fiddle. So the term fiddle became associated with the instrument when used in the popular music of the time, as in the celtic music being played by the Irish and Scots.
Basically, it's all about being lost in translation.
I didn't know that. It's pretty interesting.

I've heard the top part before, but never knew the historical side. Interesting

Thanks, son! I'll be a starving, underappreciated artist in no time, I just know it. Just like my hero, Matt Wilson!
