Apr 27 Word of the Day
A horoscope so bad that it strikes fear into the heart of the reader, rendering them unable take action or make a decision on anything or to even leave the house. This is caused by a paralyzing fear that those actions or decisions may cause the predictions to come true.
After reading "There is a lot of uncertainty around financial transactions and investments right now, and the wrong decision could result in dire consequences" in his daily Horrorscope, Edward climbed back into bed, pulled the sheets over his head and remained there for the rest of the day.
Edward only had enough gas in his car to get to the gas station but was not sure if he had enough money in his account to pay for gas. His cell phone service had been cut off because his payments were in arrears, and since the only way he could be sure he had enough money (to pay for gas) would be to call the bank, he felt it best to hide in bed and hope his horoscope for tomorrow was more positive.

A nickname for the form of torture that involves cutting a victim's face from the edges of the mouth to the ear, the cut, or its scars, form an "extension" of what resembles a smile. Usually the victim is given a small cut, around 1/4"-1/2", in the corners of the mouth and is then further injured by kicking, stabbing, or other means, causing them to scream and the cuts to further tear. It is also known as a Glasgow grin, Chelsea smile, or Chelsea grin.
Notably the Black Dahlia Murder, in which the victim was cut in half at the waist and given a Glasgow Smile. But maybe not in that order.

A Glasgow Smile Is A Nickname For The Practice Of Cutting A Victim's Face From The Edges Of The Mouth To The Ears. The Cuts, And The Scars They Leave, Form What Resembles To Be An "Extension" Of A Smile. Sometimes To Further Hurt Or Even Kill The Victim, They Would Then Be Stabbed In, Most Notably In The Stomach, So That The Face Would Be Ripped Apart When The Victim Screamed.
After The Victim Was Given A Glasgow Smile, The Victim Was Stabbed In The Abdomen And Let Out A Scream. This Caused The Victim To Rip Their Own Face Apart, Ensuring Their Death.
