My barber would be all the way over on the bottom right. Makes literally like 300 cuts just while I’m there and I’ve never even seen a tape measure anywhere in the shop.
A serial killing surveyor could totally fuck this whole thing up. Which would probably not be in the top three most objectionable traits of his 🤔
Thus, the last thing we can be accused of is having been hasty in convening the Second Congress. We were, in fact, guided by the maxim: measure your cloth seven times before you cut it; and we had every moral right to expect that after the cloth had been cut our comrades would not start complaining and measuring it all over again.
i measured once, cut twice, and its still too short.
Did you remember to use the board stretcher?
Serial killer should really be a spectrum.
The dot as it is just means “serial killer with bad aim”.
“not at serial killers”
The guy from silence of the lambs was making a dress ffs. That requires measuring.
Do serial killers normally break out the tape measure before cutting into a victim?
or “serial killer who enjoys thoroughly slicing & dicing their victims”
I’m reminded of “http-slash-slash-backslash-eacape” and the joke that it’s OJ’s home page URL.

Don’t measure, cut yourself.
