For the last time, I will NOT have sex with you until your wife leaves the room!

HJay, I’ve seen her use it on me. Here. On this very message board. Many times.

Believe you me, I’m as used to The Look as anyone who’s never seen it can be. And I am forever grateful that it doesn’t actually kill.

Siege, thanks for the suggestion. I’ll try not to be blindsided next time, and in the meantime, I’ll practice my Look…

Wait a minute! I’m being slandered, I tell you! :smiley: I have never used the Look on either of the gentlemen in question, and they are true gentlemen. As for that incident last week, at least I helped clean up afterwards. On the other hand, HJay does have a point about the collateral damage.

October, I’ve been blindsided myself, including by a sweet old Southern gentleman in his 80’s or 90’s who went to my church who honestly did not understand that when I said I did not want him to hug me, I meant I did not want him to hug me! The only thing that worked on him was staying out of reach. As for the two gentlemen, both of them may get a chance to hug me for real sometime during the next couple of months.

Notice, HJay, that when she refers to “gentlemen” she’s not referring to me. She quickly but quietly sidestepped that whole issue. In fact, notice how she uses the term “gentlemen” as if she were speaking on the floor of Congress, where reference frequently made to “the distinguished gentlemen” from such-and-such state. You see? It’s an honorific that’s used almost snarkily.

Harumph! I am indeed referring to you, dantheman when I use the term “gentlemen” and it is solely honorific. Would you prefer I refer to you as “stud muffin”? Anyone who registered in Dec. 2000 must be worth knowing.

One eye set to Stun; the other to Wink.

See! Look at that! She has the Stun eye trained on me and the Wink eye trained on Hjay! You all see it, don’t you?

Next she’ll put her hand on my leg.

In a hot tub? Can someone pass me another margarita?

By the way, Feely McHands’s wife makes the best margaritas I have ever had. With a wife like that, he’s still looking for a little somethin’somethin’ on the side…man, I just don’t get it.

Fuji, response to your query in the link below.

Dantheman:

The answer is Australian table wines.

Do I win a fondle? A grope? Anything?

You win a bee named Eric.

Stick a needle in his shoulder. I hear that can cause someone a few problems.
