Another Quartet of Skylerian Moments

We can dance if we want to

What I do on Sunday mornings

In honor of an excellent and fun half marathon today.

What animals wear on date night

Women wear animal prints, like leopard-print heels, to be sexy.  What if animals wore human feet to be sexy?  Or human skin?

"Come hither."

Miffed Letter to the French Language

Dear French Language,

Why don't you have a good translation for the English "safe," besides "out of danger"?  Do Francophones say that they practice out-of-danger sex?  

(Well, maybe they don't say anything at all.  Seems like French people always have their mouths occupied with wine, cheese, or red roses.)

Why is cela m'est egal the only translation you have for "I don't care"?  It's impossible to spit out, "THIS IS EQUAL TO ME," with the same vehemence supplied by the original English.

Why do you have so many words about places, like endroit, lieu, place, and espace, but refuse to differentiate between house and home?  Although, nice job inventing chez moi.  That's a keeper.

Why do you use sentir, se sentir, and ressentir almost interchangeably, but not notify French learners of how they're different?  When I write essays, I want to say, "she feels powerless," not "she smells powerless."  Please.  My French teachers have been laughing at me ("honh honh honh") for years over this one.

Come on, French.  Don't you think the Language of Love should lend itself to clearer description?  

(Especially where safe sex is concerned?)

Sincerely,

Merp
