> I have boobs. They’re rather big. I don’t get offended. Taking the rest of the package into consideration, my boobs are really my best feature, you go right ahead and look at 'em. And for the love of Og, it wouldn’t hurt to maybe _smile_ at me when you’re done with the boobs. They have feelings, too!

How about a nice compliment?  
I was at the beach one day with my husband and as I was wading out of the ocean a young man comes running up to me.  
He stops me and tells me, “Sorry, I had to come over here to tell you God damn. Just ‘Thank You’ and ‘God damn’!” before running back to his group of friends, a couple of who were giving me thumbs up. :o  
I think my husband was more proud than pissed.  
Made my day! 😃

I work with a young lady who possesses what can only be described as an “amazing rack.” She’s a swell person and I really am interested in her only as a business partner–absolutely nonsexual. But DAMN. Holding a conversation with her requires an iron will–she probably thinks I’m completely nuts the way I lock eyeballs with her, but it is necessary. I mean, I don’t even really \*want \* to look but…it’s like they have their own field of ocular gravity! But…I mean, I’m just curious, ok? Like if I see a bear on the side of the road, or northern lights or something…

Anahoo, In conversation today I managed to discreetly put the question to her if she’s ever _bust_ed anyone in accordance with the spirit of this thread. Nope. Never. Well, once in 6th grade.

She’s either lying or not paying attention.

I don’t believe you. I will require a picture.

I wish we could see the woman’s face, but she does have a nice pussy. 😉

Now for some clarification on my last post…

> [@](#):
>
> But, I ask her what her name is, despite the fact that I’d seemingly seen her nametag. She points to her nametag while giving her name (intentionally or unintentionally embarrassing me). I then comment that I never noticed her nametag, despite staring at her boobs.

The above was a hypothetical situation. (I think of amusing/bizarre/shocking hypothetical situations all the time.) And my comment at the end to the fictional woman would literally be, _“Oh! I never noticed your nametag, despite staring at your boobs.”_

Anyhoo…

You could always say, “Great. What’s the other one named?”

And etiquette demands that in a situation where they DO return a conversation, my response should be…? 🆒

“Wow! I didn’t even see your lips move!”  
“That’s because you weren’t looking at them, dummy.”
