Agreed. Thank you for taking the unwarrented insults in good humor. And **Giraffe** and **Marley** , you should know better.

**Donna** , you remind me of a good friend who once complained to me “Men keep looking me in the eye. Hello, my tits are DOWN HERE!” I love that woman. 😃

Aww, thanks 🙂 _shakes your hand_ and nice to meet you!

I do understand the feeling they might be getting trolled by some random guy, pics or it didn’t happen as they say 🙂

Sounds like the kind of gal I’d love to hang out with!

When you say “hang out with”… What exactly do you mean?

Well, MOIDALIZE wanted to hear all about the nude pillow fights I routinely has during slumber parties. So I guess I would be “Hanging” out having a pillow fight with her and giggling like school girls and talking about hot guys? Sounds like fun to me ^\_-

I can probably make that happen. I’m pretty sure she’d like it.

Hot, skinny, fat, old, young (18+ I hope) ugly or whatever. You and all other guys are welcome to stare at me if you like 🙂 But I bet she’s a lot more attractive 😃 So I guess you lose out?

(Fugly slut is just a joke from another thread. I’m not offended.)

This is the source of the skepticism. It happens a lot, and on this board it happens pretty much daily.

Sometimes a bird flies into our bug-zapper of suspicion. Sorry.

Really? In my 13 years on this board, I don’t think I’ve seen it even once. Somehow I’ve managed to avoid every time. Maybe threads like that just don’t interest me.
