Okay, just so people understand the score. Botoxica may have tried to frame Liri for murder or whatever but Liri actually did ruin her life. Ousted her from her business, alienated her from her family, assaulted her multiple times with intent to kill, and most likely disfigured the face of a woman who is most assuredly self conscious about her appearance. Who’s the real spider monster here?
I’m not saying I brought Botoxica back solely because you kept tweeting about it, but it’s not *not* a reason
Botoxica. Definitely Botoxica.
After all, Liri only fought her in self defense while Botoxica was trying to murder her, Botoxica alienated herself from her family by attacking them and then saying (in front of them) that she didn’t care, they’re all expendable anyway, and that bad review was earned!
Honestly, how many people would have realized that turmeric is a spice. When I first read her name, I thought the author had just pulled it out of thin air or it was a cultural name. Looking back at the way the author uses names (the Teipe sisters come to mind) I probably should have Googled it. Who knew? She is built a lot like Saffron, so … Botoxica hypnotized her?
Are Coriander and Liri a reference to Mel Brooks’ “The Producers”?
Their names are, yes
Ghasp!
As many times as I’ve had to count them?
