I think you’re just not watching the _right_ porn. Porn with a boring plot is boring; porn with a good plot adds to the enjoyment. **Marylnshephards** , keep the story building! But note that **scootergirl** is correct that too many details of who texted when are boring. Make sure it all contributes to the narrative. The bit about no freaky sex this week because of PMS? Great example of growing the story.

+1 for the joke. -1 for inserting a space in a noun. It’s like something the OP would do.

Nah. Not buying it. I post tons from my phone or iPad. If she has a twitchy space bar, why no odd spaces before or after her words?

You have that option of moving on to the next thread instead of keep coming back attacking about me not using spaces, which I am doing :rolleyes:

I added you on ignore so I wont have to see your comments anymore

Since you are new to this board, Marylnshephards, you might not know that historically and culturally the posters here prefer to write and read grammatically correct English. We like punctuation, especially when used correctly. We like posters who know the difference between you’re and your. But what we really like is vivid descriptions of freaky sex! Spare no detail, and we will forgive your lack of writing skilz.

Also I’m pretty sure it’s against the rules to say who you have on ignore.

ETA and omg I promised myself I would NOT come into this trainwreck. Damn.

With the promise of descriptive freaky sex, I expect many will come. To this thread, I mean.

OP, can you describe yourself physically and what you were wearing that day? Just trying to complete the picture. All I see is a ton of yoga pants these days so I’m thinking you were wearing them too.

:smack:

Can I blame Gaudere?

I guess that won’t fly this time. The mistake, \*and \*resorting to the very kind of moronic slut-shaming that I hate with a passion, just to make a cheap joke? Next I’ll be spouting homophobia in txtspk. Or torturing kittens for the lolz.

Yeah, that was pretty inexcusable. I think I’ll just go hate myself for a while now.

Umm, I have posted on other forums before and no one complained about my writing skills. This dude kept coming back making snide comments about my grammar. I already told him to leave the thread if he doesn’t like it but he keeps making snarky comments. It was starting to get on my nerves. As long you understand what I am saying then why does it matter?

It should be against the rules to make fun of someone else writing skills, spelling and  
grammar. I am on sure if it on this forum so someone correct me on that
