  • Choker necklaces: a relic of the 1990s or the 2590s BC? I take a closer look into the history of one of my favorite trends from elementary school and adulthood: the choker. From gold beads to plastic, it's definitely evolved over the past few thousand years.

      I am Jungshook No.. I know what I said. "Dress to depress" has been a thing for decades.

      Lily Cat Right. Exactly the point I made two weeks ago. Why try to correct someone on something you're unsure about? He clearly doesn't know me, or the topic at hand.
      I said that the phrase "Dressed to depress" has been around for a long time, and that the OP shouldn't credit Saf for "inventing" it. "I am Jungshook" decided to try to correct me and insert other words into my mouth. "You must mean this.. Not this."
      No.. I know what I said. I said it for a very specific reason.
      If you're too lazy, ignorant, or arrogant to do the very basic research on a topic, than you have absolutely NO right trying to interject or correct.
      You can't show someone sympathy for not knowing something, and trying to correct someone that does.
      It's using opinions as facts. Am I coming off as rude, or aggressive? Probably. Is it warranted? Absolutely. People need to understand that they can't just interject into something they know nothing about.

He also had plans to build a black version opposite of it for his grave, but like I said he was locked up for the last 8 years of his life. Let's just say I feel very bad for him

      that's actually not true, Shah Jahan never had intentions to build a "Black Taj." There's no concrete evidence that backs that up. What was more probable was the intention for it to be a water garden, given the architectural features that are still observable today. Instead of another physical building on the other side of the river, the giant pool of water from the water garden would have reflected the Taj under the moon light creating the opposite version of the mausoleum
