Joe > Average

Well, this is a relatively banal recent interview with Anna V. (she's feeling caught off guard, apparently..and probably trying to appear blase' about the lame content of the questioning..), but as you can see her English is really Americanized with only a touch of 'Russian influence'.

BTW, I am naturally good at sketching but I never really do it or develop it. I could draw a really good Garfield from memory since I was 6 or so. I can draw a person's face fairly well just by sitting in front of them. And I can do it quickly. I scored in the top 1 % in Spatial visualization ability as a kid. (Standardized intelligence test).

But it's one of those 'non-useful' talents for me, lol. I was always discouraged from spending time on it.

Do you know what's under-rated, easy, yet fun? Origami! If you're sending something special to someone..well, I find that they love getting an origami animal along with the gift! A personal touch!

Good evening Mister Joesph

So I got to thinking about my current 10 ten models and I came to the daunting conclusion . . . people who come from outside North America rarely appeal to me. Looking back over the last 4 years of my list I find very few people in my top ten lists (both male and female) came from anywhere but North America and I have no idea why.

It's not like I actively seek to dislike beauty from around the world . . . maybe it's a subconscious thing?

But fear not, I'm diversifying from North America . . .

Elsa Hosk - Sweden <--- I know right? I went all European up in this mofo (Super blonde)

Kate Upton - American (Super blonde)

Cora Keegan - American (Super blonde)

Josie Maran - American (Chesnut/Dark Blonde)

Emily Didonato - American (Dark Brown)

Shanina Shaik - Aussy (Chocolate)

Charlotte Free - American (Pink but base color is very blonde)

Hailey Clauson - American (Blonde)

Michea Crawford - Canadian (Dark Brown)

Anna Christine Speckhart - American (Dark Brown)

Oh and the majority of them are blonde too . . . wtf? Explain that prease.

Lol I thought you did it on purpose (because you are american), you know, like Jennka with her slovakian models, Ophelia with her redheads, Chocolate with serbian models, me with the french Lol, joking.

Normal to stand for our country or what looks like us.

How are you doing, Joe ?

Your tops are always very entertaining lol.

I guess that's probably it although I'll have to give him the benefit of the doubt that this example of his work isn't a failure and that this little guy had a glance into the future and saw an episode of The View and thus spontaneously combusted .

Yeah, it definitely has an Americanized touch to it I guess because she's been around here so long. Interresting enough Irina is the Russian my favorite Russian model to hear talk because her lively personality is the antithesis of what's expected of Russians who are usually stereotyped as not showing emotion. It seems to me that Valentina has a friendly personality although when she laughs her eyes don't move :| which kindof creeps me out but she does try so I give her that.

Its definitely good fun . The love may depend on the receiver and the personal on the sender, but I never get tired of doing it for myself at least.

You're in good company then because, I have a seven octave range, but I never saw the value in singing.

Seriously though, I definitely wouldn't call any talent useless (in your case you could even draw the models you like if you wanted) although artistic talent without ideas or passion has no value for me though. I know some people who go as far as to do family portraits and such for money and make quite a bit doing it, but don't have any love or joy in art in general. They definitely have much more skill than me, but I definitely wouldn't trade places with them. Even with writing, I'd rather have average writing ability with passion and unique ideas than be just another professor who can write a good essay. That's not to say I feel as inferior to the professor's wrigint skill as the previously mentioned artist's drawing and painting skill though. On the drawing end, I've never really taken much interrest into drawing things I see or real world things until now because I'd like to transistion into graphic novel wriging and I figure if I could get some basic real world things down, I could cut out the middle man (the illustrator) since I like to write about fantasy and real world things in contrast to preferring to draw mostly fantasy things.

How are you doing, Joe ?

Your tops are always very entertaining lol.

Fine, how about you ? Thanks, lol. Well, I don't tweet or anything like that so I figure why not just randomly throw my thoughts out there, lol. Of course, I talk like that in everyday life and I do it in reverse order too .

I guess that's probably it although I'll have to give him the benefit of the doubt that this example of his work isn't a failure and that this little guy had a glance into the future and saw an episode of The View and thus spontaneously combusted .

Or would you rather I just wished you a happy whatever day it might be today?! EVERY day!

Contrast that with this gem. When I watched your video there it put me in mind of this from when I first saw it on ftv way back when (10 years ago? Seriously? ), here Anne is just about the cutest thing in the world with her fringe and straight-outta-Gorky accent, particularly at the 1 minute mark when she gets coy about her driver...

Anyway, it stuck in my head - so I just looked it up on YouTube for you!

This interview is not particularly interesting, but shows Ksenia isn't one of the 'devoid of emotion' breed of Russian either

Although that said, I always thought she'd make an awesome Terminator <_<

^That was a special little mummified squirrel-corpse I sought out for you!

I guess he saw it firsthand then .

Awww... Don't say you're not thought of!

I basically have the same problem here...

Except that I can only date American men

(not easy when I am full time living in France)

And the majority are dark brown

tall

and from mid-west or north part of the US

Any explanation about my case?

Especially it's well know that ze French hate Americans!

Like lookin in a mirror ain't it Joesph?

LOL ! Thanks ! but no, singing's is the extent of my bathroom foolishness but its funny as always . How about you and the female version ? I still say she should have a show. Maybe her and Olivia as roomates or something .

I'll get ya the female version asap!

How are you doing, Joe ?

Your tops are always very entertaining lol.

I have a serious thing for Slovak models naturally, I think we are all patriotic at hearts although no Slovak model in my top ten... although I don´t have top 10 anymore whatever

Oh, here's those pictures. My drawings have always traditionally been made up things like monsters, surreal and abstract type things so my initial goal at least here recently was to learn to draw regular people and then I figured why not animals too since I love animals . Of course, I should add a little backstory to all that by saying that the main goal behind all this is I was wondering if I could illustrate my own stories instead of working with an artist . Anyway, these were done with a regular mechanical pencil from a tutorial I tried out. One is a dog and I'm not sure what the other one is .

I like it much more than those faces drawings, Joe it seems you have a touch for animals, they are lovely eventhough they are "just" sketches. Keep on!! I wanna see more

That is definitely the most quoted post in the history of this thread twice over .

I'll get ya the female version asap!

Thanks for the keep on part . That you like the animals more is strange yet convenient. Strange because I just started animals and convenient because I really like animals. I must say though, I'm more at home with surrealism than real life things. What's really strange is that even though I have almost no control with my off hand, my 'modern' and surrealistic work comes out much better with my left hand.

As to my original goal when I started this (being able to illustrate my own stories) I've come to some pros and cons. The pros are I realized that I don't have to be Moebus to do it . Some of my favorite comics don't have stellar art and some of my favorite writers started off doing it all themselves and then got full time artists once they got established. The cons are that I've now realized that its so much work since my stories are in the hundreds of pages that I could finish three volumes in the time that it took to write and illustrate one .

Here's some with a mechanical pencil on printing paper. One is supposed to be my cat and the other a ferret of some kind.

10. Implants can only harm you - there have been cases of women who were wounded and the implant stopped the knife even though the implant itself was broken.

9. That men who like big boobs prefer big boobs in every situation - for example, I like big boobs but I like all sizes and which I prefer is case by case. For example, I prefer Horst's regular sized over Upton's big and Alyssa Miller's small over Denise Milani's huge.

8. That if a man likes a woman whose bosom ranges from big to huge, that he likes her because of that. There are women with huge boobs who I actually like for the face and only the face, so when I post their pics I usually just crop the whole body out just because of that misconception alone. I don't have the pics right here, but there are also busty women who I actually like everything but the bosom.

7. That even if he likes something else, that's his favorite feature.

6. That because looks are important in acting, big boobs make it easier to become an actress. Contrary to popular belief, this isn't really true. For one, its difficult to get work as an actress if you are bigger than D in most cases. Most of the ones that are were either child actresses first or started in some other profession such as modeling or music. There are more than a few stories of glamour models who saught acting first and were told their bosom was too big. Becoming popular in said other field will increase your chances of getting acting work, but the same can be said for music, sports ect. If you look at the current young actresses, you'll see that its currently more advantageous to be pretty with regular sized boobs than huge ones. The reason for that is most likely because focus groups or marketing researchers probably determined that they are less likely to offend women while still appealing to men. Also, because of the prejudices of casting agents, people with overly pronounced features of any kind (huge bust in women, too much muscle in men, women significantly over 6'0 or men significantly over 6'5) have a harder time getting starring roles as film makers like to give them roles that are about their feature rather than allowing the spontanaety of real life.

5. That every woman with huge boobs will have back problems - this is usually more of a means of some women to diss said woman rather than concern or knowledge. The reality is that every woman is different. Some may have to have a D reduced while somewhere else there's a woman in her seventies who's four times as big and still works in the garden with no problem.

4. That all men love big boobs - obviously this is a fashion forum, so regular to medium sized is most popular with the males here. In the general world, I'm not going to lie, they are extremely popular. Just the fact that they are enough for some women to make a career from alone says a lot. That said, none of us really knowns what percentage of men like what, but though I'd bet there are millions, the percentage is usually exhagerrated.

3. That most big boobs are fake until proven unfake - this stereotype comes from a few different places. That line of thinking in some may be that most famous for their fake boobs have big ones and that subconsciously influences that line of thinking. Some may just blurt it out from jealousy and resentment without even giving it much though (such as when the girl is an enemy or someone she dislikes for whatever reason). For others, its flat out not realizing that fake boobs come in a wide variety of sizes and since so many people are programed to just zone in on big ones, they overlook the fake regular sized ones. The most common factor of fake boobs however is hardness rather than size.

2. That big breasts have more milk - women with larger breasts can hold more until they start producing again, but that's not to say they produce more while they are producing.

1. That women with big boobs are dumber because of the bimbo stereotype - no need to explain that one.

Nice, Joe.. I like the ferret the best

I see the anime influences coming through.

... I prefer Horst's regular sized over ...

You'll learn her first name one of these days

^ WTF

Oh, and now we need a Top 10 Big Butt Misconceptions list

I'm not even going to ask what kindof stuff that pig's into .

Nice, Joe.. I like the ferret the best

I didn't think about the anime thing, but I guess it must be subconscious .

It would probably make a touching movie scene if she like took an arrow for me or something and right when I though she was about to die I tell her how I feel and spell her name right. Either that or one of you is about to be executed and the king says he'll let you go if I spell some model names right and I come through when it matters most .

^ WTF

Oh, and now we need a Top 10 Big Butt Misconceptions list

They're not as popular as the big bosom, so its hard to say. Most black and African males I know like booties more than boobs of any kind, but then what's big for most other groups is average for a black women so if anyone's going to like it then they might as well. Most Mexican guys I know prefer medium size to medium large. The Puerto Rican guys I've talked to on the subject prefer medium large to large. I always assumed most white guys preferred flat to small with slight roundness, but I never know what to expect on their end (one of my white friends that some call "white Mike" because he acts black prefers huge). If I had to guess, I'd still assume small with slight roundness was the most popular with whites, but I can't say and I haven't talked to many Asians about the subject. You don't see very many big booties on television though even among black celebrities probably because most famous black women are biracial or multiracial so they have a 50/50 chance. Big is also kindof in the eye of the beholder. Some would call this big although for a black woman its average size, so big is somewhat relative.

Even with the bosom, most here call Marisa and Bar's boobs big whereas I always thought medium large myself.

Ah, why not ?

5. That you can't get rid of cellulite through natural means.

4. The general lack of knowledge regarding Brazil's plastic surgery rate.

3. That Kim Kardashian's curves are rare.

2. That Jennifer Lopez's booty is unique.

1. That having a big booty means you need to loose weight or are out of shape.

5. That every woman with huge boobs will have back problems - this is usually more of a means of some women to diss said woman rather than concern or knowledge. The reality is that every woman is different. Some may have to have a D reduced while somewhere else there's a woman in her seventies who's four times as big and still works in the garden with no problem.

I disagree... of course, it may not apply to every woman with big breasts but still.... I guess it's like wearing a heavy backpack on your chest.... although I can't realte to this feeling as I don't have big boobs

and again, not every D is big...
