Q: What does body lotion mean?

I found it in my hotel room in Europe, what is this one for? For showering or for body moisturizing?

Ted Levine is acting as Jame Gumb nicknamed 'Buffalo Bill' ...

  ... and he's just acting ... 

You made me laugh with his real-life comparison ...

Yep, he's the type of guy you'd avoid making eye contact with if he was living next door to you and if the kids lost a ball over his fence you'd tell them to leave it there.

 

The fluffy, manicured poodle was a good touch too, I'm not sure why but it just seems to be the perfect dog for someone like that.

The best was his female disregard (which Hopkins described earlier to Jodi ...

"It puts the lotion on it's skin ... or else it gets ..."

 

What a sentence ...

 

I had a blast when Sinobear used the quote at some Lotion thread some 5y ago ... and I was guessing if posters recognized the quote Sino was using. 

 

I found this read when I was looking for Hopkins description of Gumb ...

Buffalo Bill, the main antagonist, is an extremely damaged character with an immense amount of psychological problems. Before Buffalo Bill was even put on screen, it was explained to the audience that he was a transsexual. He had been rejected from at least three different hospitals when he requested a sex change operation. Buffalo Bill took matters into his own hands by skinning the obese women. The motive of his murder, wanting to become a woman, gave transsexuality pessimistic overtones. It looks as if though the driving factor for his madness is his sexuality/desire to be a woman, rather than just his mental instability. Arthur Almquist (1996), professor at the University of Montana, wrote that only time Buffalo Bill is shown on camera, he is played out as the typical “flamboyant, gay stereotype.” Buffalo Bill’s characteristics were meant to make the audience uncomfortable and invoke a sense of affliction, which lead to the demonization of homosexuality. It was never actually mentioned in the movie whether Buffalo Bill was homosexual ..

The sequel, or prequel I think to that movie is just as good at showing how a psycho is formed. I haven't seen it for a long time and it's been even longer since I read the book but I think Hannibal Lecter was forced to eat his sister or something and became a war orphan which turned him into a cannibal.

There are two different books by Harris: ''Hannibal Lecter-Trilogy'' and ''The Silence of the Lambs''.

I am listening audio book "Silence ..." and it doesn't differ too much from dialogs in the flick.

"Red Dragon" was prequel to the "The Silence ..."

Hannibal rising is the movie I was thinking of. It's how Hannibal grew up to be a psycho, great movie from what I remember.

Unless you want the hose (again) put it on your skin after you get out of the shower. It is moisturising in most cases.

Stiggs:

Lol 'the hose' was the first thing I thought of when I saw that question just now...

Body lotion placed in the hotel rooms in EU (Poland mostly) is for the squeaky bed's-body lubrication. 

 

I bet, you got in the cheap-o hotel ... you Squeaky!

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is 'Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by 1. Finding an employer; 2. Employer applies for an Invitation letter; 3. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
