I thought when referring to film it was celluloid? Remember the Kinks song Celluloid Heroes?

A little extra cellulite means more of you to hug and love.

There is nothing sexy about cellulite, it’s a curse and most of us will probably get it.

I’m off to Pilates to strengthen my core… more accurately known as my fat.

I was thinking of that song too.

About fat, my opinion which I shared with my wife and still hold to this day, is my love is not contingent upon body fat. And I supported her on whatever she felt she needed to be and stay healthy like excersise and diet. On the latter I cooked healthy meals for her.

Ok. And?

I'm married to a dago!

 

[BrendaBear]

I'm married to a dago!

Oh. Well, I live with a doggo, is that similar?

My wife has an ass full of it then.

Today, yes!

I could give AF about cellulite at this point …. I’ve had it since I was in my teens. It’s just part of life, part of bodies… so it is sexy, because I’m sexy

Even men!

There’s a world of difference between dago and doggo…

That's debatable.

I think you’re thinking of Celluloid. That’s what the old movies used.

From Kodak;

Cellulose acetate is used as a film base, a transparent substrate that supports photosensitive emulsion (silver halide colloidal particles in gelatin mix) that sits on top of it.

Ah! I stand corrected! Sorry about that @Cindy027! Celluloid was also used, but it is not the same as Cellulose Acetate.

From Wikipedia (for anyone interested)

Most movie and photography films prior to the widespread move to acetate films in the 1950s were made of celluloid. Its high flammability was legendary since it self-ignites when exposed to temperatures over 150 °C in front of a hot movie-projector beam. While celluloid film was standard for 35mm theatrical productions until around 1950, motion-picture film for amateur use, such as 16mm and 8mm film, were on acetate "safety base", at least in the US.

Celluloid was what was used in the beginning of film production but it was highly inflammable so they changed sometime. The only reason I know this is because when I was still at school I had an unhealthy fascination with photography and delved into all the different film emulsions and manufacturers.

There is certainly nothing unhealthy about that fascination!!

That's also a factor in their degradation in less than ideal conditions. I think something like 80% of all films made prior to 1950 are believed lost.

When I was studying preservation, I learned about photos and the "vinegar syndrome" names for the smell of degrading photos processed with certain film stock. It's a smell you never forget. Ewwwwwwww!!

There had been a huge fire at the library of congress film archives caused by decomposition of the celluloid film. Now the films are stored in fireproof containers.

my point exactly

There’s a world of difference between dago and doggo…

I have no idea what dago is. And am not even curious enough to look it up.

 

[Deadbed1968]

I think it’s a ethnic slur
