![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/ToKoreaWithLove/soap.jpg)
The most common soap making process today is the cold process method, where fats such as rendered lard react with lye.
I've been using the same soap for 4 years, 3 months and 7 days. It is a good soap, reliable, gets me clean, and I can always count on this soap. It's not the most exciting soap, but it is socially accepted, and while a little dull it is the safe choice. I tried quite a lot of other soaps, but only for a night at a time. However I quickly got bored with its plain looks, yellow color and over time it grew on me and I found it less and less appealing, to the point where I would go for weeks without even using it. I quit it in january.
I found a new kind of soap about 5 months ago. Great soap, with pretty brownish colors and a very nice design. The kind of soap everyone wants. Using this soap was a pleasure, and I've never felt so clean as I did with this soap. The Ferrari of soaps. The Brad Pitt of soaps. Tyler Durden envies the people who made this soap. I would have stuck with this soap, but for the fact that it was very very slippery. I found it increasingly hard to use, and so the fateful day came when it evaded my wet hands, fell to the white porcelaine tiles and slid away. Once again I was left searching for soap.
Soap is made from either vegetable, human or animal fats. Sodium tallowate, a fatty acid sometimes used to make soaps, is derived from tallow, which is rendered from cattle or sheep tissue
Recently I've been lucky enough to find 3 exciting new soaps. They are as different as sun and sand, yet tied together tight as water and whale. I'm leaning slightly to the white one. Its design is as fabulous as the previous one. It's made from the finest human fat in existence, polished and molded by caring hands, carefully wrapped in the finest silk. Unwrapping it is done in a hurried, careful manner, the joy of unwrapping something special weighted against the desire to reach the fantastic product.
Red. A red bar, curved, shiny with a wonderfull scent. Fierce like a latino woman. Must be applied with care, because it has character, flair, temper but is also slippery. I first found this soap in another's house, could not resist trying it. A pleasant surprise, a fire, wonderful company under the running water and a world apart from the calming soap of yesteryear.
Additives, such as essential oils, fragrance oils, botanicals, clays, colorants or other fragrance materials, are combined with the soap batter at different degrees of trace, depending upon the additive
Imported soap, from a foreign country, another religion. I haven't tried this yet, but it is there if I want to. Some would call my passion for soap crazy, but to me it is a big part of every day. I'm not trying the import. It has a certain allure, but I'm busy juggling my other bars and I am afraid the chemicals might react and cause irritation.
Running soap, not a bar. It looks and feels like a bar, but somehow it tends to melt more often than not. I really like this soap, but being the soap enthusiast I stay away from using it. I brought it with me into the shower, but I had already decided against. It will reside on my shelf, unused untill an hour of need eventually comes along.
The clear layer is glycerin. You can mix glycerin back in when you make soap. Or You can skim the glycerin off. You can mix the glycerin with nitric acid to make nitroglycerin.
Paper-wrapped, with hamp bands. Plastic wrap. Plastic boxes. Clear wrappings. Vintage soaps, shaped, handmade, wrapped in brown paper. White soap. Red soap. Smell of roses, of flowers, of summer, of ocean, of Britney's new perfume. Rought, smooth, hard, soft soap. Soap that makes your eyes water, soap that leaves you feeling new and fresh. Soap that you will never use again. Soap that makes you sick. My addiction makes me. I'll find the perfect one.

I'm a bit surprised that people actually happen to think this is about soap. After reading the first sentence I knew where this was going.
It's brilliantly written - as always - and I hope that you'll find a soap you'll want to stick to.
Og ta telefonen eller ring, jeg vil gjerne diskutere ditt forrige innlegg med deg.Last edit: 2008-07-23 21:01:44 |

there is nothing in the movie besides edward norton and a bunch of pseudo philosophical references
it just doesn't deliver on a serious level, there's literally few episodes worth attention
while entertaining, its still over pretentious and pretty pointless in the end
it's great that you're trying, maybe one day after countless imitation attempts one develops a style |

I was refering to his "human fat in soap" comment, that is why I mentioned fight club. You are correct, fight club is only entertainment, but damn good entertainment.
However I won't call this particular piece imitation, as it is very dissimilar to the style used in the book fight club. Could perhaps be linked to "amrican psycho" because of the mass use of adjectives, but I certainly never intended to imitate anything with this piece. Haven't really read american psycho either. Have a look at the previous post, that can be said to be fight club-esque. Altho that was never my intention, it came out that way. I'm more about experimenting right now. |

Replace "soap" with "girl" or "woman" and replace most of the "its" with "shes" or "hers". A lot of parts will still seem odd, but you should be able to decipher those instances in your head (for example when he refers to the soap slipping away, he means the relationship doesn't work out or the girl find someone else).
correct me if I'm wrong, since tbh I'm only partly sure of this.Last edit: 2008-07-24 05:08:33 |
