Um, what’s the bird for?
“Kinky is using a feather, but a fetish requires the whole bird.”
psssst. ixnay on the “atthay indka ofay uygay”!!!
Air kisses to all the guys
…and an extra one to dropzone for such a sweet thread!
::wanders in::
Am I included in this élite bunch?
::waits patiently::
bird = English slang for a pretty girl
We toast all the ladies of the board - please come in, Tig
LOL
Gives new meaning to the phrase, “But baby, I just need a little space, okay?”
Aw, shucks. You guys are nice, too. 
“A bird and a bottle and a bed badly tossed.”
—Actually, it’s a pheasant. “A hot bird and a cold bottle” was the dinner to have at Rector’s if you wanted to impress that girl from the “Florodora” sextette you just made a date with. Oh, a diamond bracelet hidden in the flowers wouldn’t come amiss . . .
And, Drop, dear, a toast right back atcha!
Here’s to the maiden of bashful fifteen,
Here’s to the widow of fifty!
Here’s the the flaunting, extravagant queen,
Here’s to the housewife who’s thrifty!
Let the toast pass,
Drink to the lass,
I warrant she’ll prove an excuse for the glass!
(Can you believe I didn’t have to look that up? Jesus, it’s SCARY the shit that’s still rattling around inside my skull.)
this is not dodgy - this is … uhm… a random guy using her computer… and I want to say that she is the very best poster on this bord. Eurotrash rox
It s not that I … uhm… but it had to be saied.
Uhm.
random guy who is not dodgy
Aww this is so sweet! smiles You guys are so nice… I’m feeling a warm and fuzzy inside gives all the guys a big hug
If I may hijack:
I’d like to toast the gentlemen of the SDMB. You guys are the best.
[sub]…and in my mind’s eye, you’re all tall, dark, handsome, intelligent, witty, classy, well-dressed, well-hung, and fabulously wealthy…[/sub]
Now seriously:
you guys are great!
dodgy
Why, thank you. I belive this is the first time I’ve been toasted. 
Thanks to all the gentlemen of the SDMB… make that all the yummy men of the SDMB.
Gentlemen, when a woman gives you her time and attention, this is a great honor.
…and always remember: When you get honor,
STAY honor.

Damn, drop, you’re really turning into quite the ladies’ man!
Who’da thunk that harmless old man presentation (pretty durn convincing cammo BTW) was merely a cunning subterfuge?!
Mind if I troll behind your growing harem eagerly awaiting any overflow, spillage, or “day old” offerings?
CASANOVA LIVES! (in a suburb west of Chicago)
We, your humble brethren, bow down before you.
Now pass me a beer. It’s Friday, the sun is well over the yardarm, and there’s babes all over the joynt!
As I tried to explain before, my pseudo-parental obligations stand in the way of my full appreciation of your womanly charms.
BUT, since I’m so much not your father that I have never met your mother, not even in the Richard-Hatch-as-donor sense, you are most certainly included.
Kinship was always my worst subject in Anthropology.
Cammo? Hiding in plain sight, disguised as myself, a harmless, though dirty, old man.
We needn’t pretend something we aren’t. It’s not like they haven’t figured us out already. Especially you.
Some guy posted a thread that has seemed to disappear where he spoke of how great it was to be able to flirt with women who were “out of his league” in high school. I think BornDodgy’s thread about the guys she meets in chat illustrates that well. There, the guys and the questions they ask are creepy. Here, she volunteers the same information, and more, and gives us a link to her web site so we can learn more about her. (And her family unto a hundred generations… ) It’s so different here. It’s probably the sense that we know each other as well as we think we do.
But it is more than that. Here we learn about each other, each person’s loves and dreams and sorrows, long before we learn what they look like. We are able to, and I cannot emphasize this enough, LEARN THAT APPEARANCES AREN’T EVERYTHING, AND THAT THE (PERHAPS) PLAIN APPEARANCE OF A FRIEND IS FAR MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN THE BEAUTIFUL APPEARANCE OF A STRANGER!!! And we may never learn what somebody looks like, but that doesn’t mean they can’t make us happy, or even horny! It’s just too cool.
Have a great weekend, all of you.
