Why ... is your orange purple?

[synthcat]

I think it might be a blood orange. Oh my Goth. :)

[lovemotionstory]

it is...

[lovemotionstory]

it's not... purple.

[synthcat]

Ooooh! You have blood oranges too? I am about to snack on one right now! :)

[lovemotionstory]

I think your finger nails have become thicker and wider since you were eight years old.

see, i thought of this.. at first i was like, "oh, it's just because my nails are stronger and i'm more dexterous." as i thought of it further, however, i realized "various household members" (my dad, my mom, aunts, older cousins, etc.) would always be bickering over who had the orange peeler last and where it may have gone.. so again i ask, have oranges become easier to peel?

[fandarzelig]

Mmhh... I suppose that was clear in your post and I looked over it... well, obviously your family had a severe calcium deficiency and thus had weak nails.

Mmm. Hybridization. It's almost like GMO, but "natural."

[lovemotionstory]

that would be a possible explain, of course, if it were the case, but i am wondering if it really is the case or not. do you remember oranges being harder to peel when you were younger?

[quadhome]

God yes. They were like bank vaults.

[lovemotionstory]

i want to photoshop a bank vault orange now, but i am too lazy.
