Welu:
I did say greys into it, not is it. I think "now lose it" can be reasonably interpreted as demanding. As in a hard instruction, not a literal demand.

"Now lose it!" could well be (and probably should be) seen as a demand... But I don't think anyone said that?
However... Bombarding Jeph with tweets about such things should probably be taken that way, but a throwaway comment in a forum wherein it's been made very clear he does not engage with... Nope.
Insofar as the focus of (certainly *my* comments)...
I have never liked Claire's character. (Not too keen on Clinton either.)
The addition of the septal piercing is just something adding to the perfect storm.
As regards "Seriously though I'm personally sick of people talking about how they hate the septum piercing."
I can understand that.
But it doesn't alter my personal feelings on the matter... and my personal feelings have no bearing on anyone.
I have friends with (some quite severe) body mods.
I think they're daft - They think *I'm* daft for not liking them...
It doesn't make me think less of them as a person, other than questioning their fashion sense, but hey - 35-40 years ago I wandered round in clothes made of bin liners and held together with safety pins and gaffer tape for a while. A few years later it was Kaftans. Now... Well, now I'm old and boring, but still dress up in full 'viking' regalia from time to time.
I understand (and utterly condemn) that there might well be places where such mods etc might be taken to be "freakish" and used as an excuse to de-humanise someone that people might view as other. And rightly outraged that some places in the UK have refused to take on board "Sophie's Law" in cases of victimisation.
But that's a far cry from me not liking septal piercings.
And, unlike those looking to use such things as an excuse for their own bigotry... I can at least give an explanation as to why I do not like them.
(Nutshell? Transference, personal aesthetics, and a life-time of sinus problems. That's pretty much the be all and end all.)
We can't All like Everything... So, before it starts, please don't try and spin my dislike of certain modifications into anything other than what it is...?
Cheers!

Global Moderator Comment In which case, please just let this go rather than going on about them.

Certainly...
For as long as no-one is jumping on my case for having my own opinions... which have no bearing on anyone.

Heck, my old '92 Escort hatchback would have had no problem with it, and it was not a large car. Fold down the rear seats, maybe use a couple of bungee cords if the hatch won't close completely, and presto.
For that matter, your old pal Jimbo probably has a pickup truck that could handle that dresser just fine. But maybe you never bothered to get his phone number?

Yeah, I know it's a full year later, but I can't believe no one pointed out the fact that Marten knows that Steve has a truck, and he does know his number.
Although, to be fair, I don't know how many times I've read through the entire archive, and today is the first time I thought of that.
