You’re supposed to CALL them? Damn. No wonder I don’t get any . . . I call them breasts. Except one night in chat I was breastage master. That was fun. People gave me multiple pairs. ---

I was with this guy in a bar and he was just a bit tipsy when these two gorgeous girls go by and he stops them and asks “do you two come here often?” Except he was directly pointing and talking to the breasts of one of them… I think it took him a few seconds to realize why they never bothered to answer… (I mean the girls) but the scene was funny as heck. I am not sure if he realized how obvious he was. ---

Well, mine are Dolly and Daisy. Daisy is the more diminutive one; Dolly is the bigger girl (in deference to her namesake, of course). Dolly is beautifully shaped, if I do say so myself. Daisy almost is. 🙂 Yes, boys, almost all women have one slightly larger than the other. Typically, it is the left one–and that is where Dolly rests. ---

ssskuggiii said: “Yeah, and you walked out with about half a dozen pairs that didn’t belong to you.” Three of those pairs were yours, hon. And I did give them back the next night. NuVoDaDa got his first . . . no, you probably don’t want to know. I think that was the same night we found out about Brunetter’s porn site. ---
