      @goosehd As a designer, when I hear negative space, it's all about visual weight of what's not there. It's the space around and between elements in a composition. It’s not “empty”; it’s active, guiding the eye, creating rhythm, and shaping meaning.

      But I'm not sure that's what @JoshC is talking about. Was "negative spaces" being confused with "showing wear and tear" as it related to their vintage jumpers?

                  @seawolf haha sorry I misread your message I thought you said about coming up with a different term to "crotch blowouts" rather then "define" and I was just saying about how I heard someone the other day selling a vintage jumper that had alot of holes through wear and tear but the jumper was just fucked and they was using "negative space" as edgy word to sell there jumper haha, I was disgusted haha. but lets not use negative space a new way to explain blowouts.

                  @goosehd that would be me, there's a lot of negative space there haha

                          are there 'moon people'? or is it that some people not always get all things together?

                                  My head goes to some of the SCTV guys and then Kids in the Hall and then Trailer Park Boys and then Letterkenny / Shoresy.

                                  Canada, are y’all accepting refugees from America?

                                  Think it, be it.
