Who's Behind the Computer - Part 2

[Gesticulator]

Hey Curry, that sitar is awsome!!!!! I didn't know you were in Queens, too......
What part????

 

[Prometheusmum]

I've never quite understood why people put 'bling' on there teeth..

 

[Sheri]

Curry, dude... is that a moose on your shelf? And a made in china spongebob cookie nailed to the wall?

I know I do this everytime to you, but I can't help it. Please humour me, I'm old. As evidenced by having *no* idea what bling is, or why one would want to put it on teeth.

I mean... I have a suspicion of what being blinged on the teeth might be - but I can't see it being posted here, in such a casual manner.

Sheri,I'm surprised at you You are only a baby compared to me,and I know that bling is "in ya face" jewellery,much beloved by rappers,gangstas and bikers.I have quite a collection myself.You really must get out more Princess

Sheri, Elephant Man got braces

 

[Sheri]

Ok, why is it called "bling"? And how does it get on your teeth? Tooth jewellery? Really?

And what does that have to do with elephant man? Did he need braces? Is tooth bling really braces? Do people get braces now just for fun?

Maybe I do need to get out more. Do you think so? Really? This is like... common knowledge?
Did Mr. T call it bling? Did it start there? Is it still called bling if a chick wears it?

Edit: I think the elephant man needed teeth, not braces.

Edit2: I see now that his friend is called Elephant Man. I missed that before, somehow.
But are they braces? Or bling? Or are braces as accessories rather than a dental treatment just called bling?

?

ROFLMAO

As far as I know people can get certain "decorative caps" from their dentists. But then there are those who actually decide to have a mouth full of gold or silver implants, too.

I've never heard or seen people wearing braces for "bling" reasons though. Ouch!

Jamaica, Queens. Right off hillside.

Sheri: when i took that pic my back was towards my sisters desk so thats why all that stuff is there. my desk is filled with CD's, audio equipment and and computer parts.

As far as elephant mans teeth, its just caps that were made by using a dentist mold of his teeth, a jeweler just fits the caps to his mold profile and then he can easily slide them on and off. Lots of hip-hop artists have them now, its almost a standard...

 

[Melmoth]

Sheri,technically speaking "bling" is jewellery,as in big rings,chains etc.Yes,I guess the wonderful Mr T was the original blinger .

I have one gold tooth (capped) but it is permanent,not a removable fashion accessory.I've had it for some time.And yes "bling" is common usage.

i can't be left out....... here i am!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Scorp guy]

hmm, yeah, lots of rappers have what they call "grillz" now, like the front of your car=grill and the front of your face=grill...nelly, paul wall, elephant man, mike jones, and many other rappers have them im sure you havnt heard of em, but they are pretty famous... type in "grills" or "grillz" on ebay and theres a set thingy that explains it, and that explains "bling!"

 

[edesign]

ever notice the difference between most rap videos and rock/metal videos? The contents are much different...i forget what comedian said it (Chris Rock?), but to sum it up he basically said that black people are still getting used to having money so they can't figure out what else to use it for besides showing off cars, jewelry, and women

Looking very smart there, young man!

Are you coming to the BTS this year?

 

[Karmashadowsh]

Me

Derek Costa now in "The man behind the Computer"rated R....lol

 

[Martin H.]

Hi Leon,

Looking very smart there, young man!

so, even without a girlfriend which has the best boobs on AB one can look smart! =;-)

Are you coming to the BTS this year?

I try to, I try to - just have to find two cheap flights (for Boris and me). With my first search I only found cheap flights to London, but not to Birmingham. Will do a thorough search for flights in the next days and then we'll see...

all the best,
Martin

A recent one of me. I just had highlights put in my hair, but they don't show up very well in this picture. It's noticeable enough (in person) that all of my students commented immediately upon seeing me (not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing).

 

[Melmoth]

Lovely Beccs and yes I can see your highlights

Is my :drool: sufficient comment?

Hi Leon,

LOL - "Smart" here has 3 meanings

• Someone I would like to have sex with
• Someone intelligent
• Someone well dressed and tidy

Sorry Martin I can't put you in category one for me

I am off work FRI/SAT/SUN so even if London is the only choice then me (or maybe Ian) might be able to help with transport. Plenty of time to organis that!
