Before and after petting
Here is a great example of how takedashi (=lengthening) looks like.
People in the past had the same issue as us nowadays: sometimes handed down kimono were just too tiny to be worn! (think short mother, tall daughter for example ^^)
It is doable to simply add a long strip of fabric to expand the waist area. When done correctly, this additional fabric is hidden under the obi/in the ohashori fold ;)
Just a couple o’ snapshots of Mikey’s trot extensions... which scored us 8s!
How many times people repeat the “u” in “fuck” on twitter, from a study of how people say fuck on twitter that also includes this excellent set of examples:
In the case of the f-word, we found that while the average usage was (unsurprisingly) negative, a quarter of the tweets were strongly positive. To illustrate this emotional mélange, we selected nine representative examples at various intervals with inferred sentiment shown in parenthesis. For comparative purposes (and because this is the internet) all of the selected tweets pertain to cats.

Video of Adam trying to lengthen strides of trot. He is a little bit too rushing sometimes but has good moments too. Anyway it's one of first times we try this. What’s most important for me is that he tries super hard 💗😄
