I'm from the Midwest and say do the splits. Which sounds funny now that i've read it 18 times! But I'd only heard "a split" in reference to champagne.
You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

MsBelle, I used to buy exactly that at Cost Plus World Market. But limited colors; I always got a taupe.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
msbelle, seersucker?
eta: And, meara, I just remembered that even my Midwest transplant best friend (from Minnesota) always called them "the splits," too.
There was one brief bendy time in my life when I could do them--right leg forward only, though. Could never, ever manage left leg forward.

I have never, ever heard "the splits". it sounds so weird to me.
I agree with Sue that those bedspreads are chenille bedspreads.

Yeah, in Seattle, it's always been the splits or splits. No singular split.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh! I had one like that in navy blue.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This is a picture that has some cars for comparison.
It does look freaky next to normal planes, but there are only so many times one can look at that. Or so I'd assumed.
