Sure, request away! Just make sure to tell me in your request that you are a doper or I will probably refuse it. I don’t like friending strangers on Facebook because they overload my notices with application crap.

Can we get a Mod in here? We need to have this thread renamed “Dopers who want to bury their faces in **pbbth** ’s cleavage, and possibly confess things”.

Is that how she got **pbbth** as her username? Because that’s what people say when they bury their faces in her cleavage? 😃

(sorry, couldn’t resist–will try harder next time) 🙂

If that’s what you’d say in that situation, I have to wonder what your thought process is. 😉

Me, I’d be saying “Mmmmm, yes.”

Heh. Not me. I’m female, straight, and not a fan of cleavage. That’s why I was careful to say “people.” 🙂 And I meant the noise in a “motorboat” sense, not a “yuck” sense. In other words, complimentary (presumably–I always thought the motorboat concept was kind of icky, but apparently a lot of guys think it’s quite nice. 🙂 )

I’m falling out of love with my wife. I want to see a marriage councilor but I don’t know where to look, how to suggest it to her, how we could afford it, or whether my ego could survive therapy.

[QUOTE=malkavia]  
What a fun thread! I too was hoping for more pics (Also, maybe a revealing picture of Zebra), but I’ll live.  
\<snip\>

1. My head bluescreens whenever I’m paid a compliment. I have NO idea how to respond. My first reaction is to immediately negate the compliment with some sort of self-deprecation and my second is to say, “I know, right?!” a la Mean Girls.

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy compliments in hindsight.. but while they’re happening, I’m kind of a mess.  
[/QUOTE]

I have trouble with compliments, and also with receiving gifts graciously. It’s not that I am selfish about gift giving, it’s that I get embarrassed by the attention that comes along with receiving gifts and extra attention. It’s a very “is this really meant for me?” feeling.

[QUOTE=SSG Schwartz]  
I will take responsibility for whatever happens to my hardon, thank you. 😃 So make with the pictures. And be snappy.

Sorry, I’ve been busy with schoolwork lately. Classes started on Monday. I did, however, find time to photograph some [serious cleavage](http://picasaweb.google.com/adamjprawlocki/Random/photo#5239306061494394178).

Speaking of school, when I was a freshman in college, I used to sneak around the dorm building to find quiet places to have phone sex with my then-LDR-boyfriend. Sometimes it was easier to just call him for phone sex after my roommate fell asleep, and try to be quiet about it. It was an interesting first semester.

I prefer **Famous Grouse**. Come Laphroaig, Cragganmore or any other single malt or fancy this or that – when the sun goes down, and nobody sees, I pour a real large glass of Famous. Because it tastes so good. Better than anything else.

Cleavage _and_ a mooseknuckle. My day is made. 😛

[QUOTE=Telperien]  
I hate or am at best indifferent to most things that seem popular here. I am polite enough not to immediately go to sleep at the mention of _Firefly_ or _Serenity,_ for example, but only just. It gets a bit tedious because most of my friends are raving fanboys or fangirls.

Just ordered both from Netflix. (I hope you were talking about what I just learned were short-lived TV series, neither of which I had ever heard of before.)

[QUOTE=Tabby\_Cat]

Even if I’m mostly in female company, being male means you just can’t be “one of the girls”. I’ll never be able to join in on the internet shopping sprees, talk about girl stuff, and the worst part is the “reverse exclusion”, that I have to keep quiet when they talk about “unspeakable” things (at least they’re comfortable enough to talk about waxing outings when I’m around) because anything - ANYTHING I say will be layered with a sexual subtext. When you titter nervously and apologise about subjecting me to talk about shaving your hoohaa, believe me, I’m silent for your benefit, not mine. And sharing food.. hah. Wanting a taste of your cream cheese bagel isn’t just wanting a taste of your cream cheese bagel, there must be some hidden HORNY MALE agenda.  
[/QUOTE]

I don’t have very many female friends and often feel I’m missing out on chances to talk about “girly” things. And when I do meet a woman that I like well enough to try and become friends with, I go too far overboard and come across like a half-grown Labrador puppy. Sometimes, there’s even slobber.

I had girlfriends back in high school, but I don’t know what happened since then.

I have to confess that instead of dinner tonight I ate a bag of Baked Lays. Not even one of the little individual serving size bags but an entire 5 oz package. I feel a little ill now and I’m wishing I hadn’t been so lazy and had actually made normal food.

[QUOTE=Sleeps With Butterflies]  
Nah, that’s ok. I use my livejournal for picture spamming. Plus, I’m a 32B, no cleavage.

I realize these are confessions and all, but some of them are a bit scary. There are so many Dopers and I get people mixed up sometimes so I need to bookmark this page so I can remember some of them. :eek:  
[/QUOTE]

New Confession:

Purely on physical hotness, which includes general hottiness; smile and such other things as may make you look like someone incredibly cool to hang with whilst trying not to peek when you’re not looking, you are among the Top Shelf of Doper-osity.

Honestly, cleavage is nice if you got it, but not all of us are breast guys. Some of us just like purty girls.

Oh, and smart and funny and stuff, but that all is assumed if you’re here to begin with.
