I’m just relieved I didn’t scare her away. It’s been a while since we’ve seen your Larry-from-Three’s-Company side, I’d have felt terrible if we’d missed it just because of my baseless suspicions.

Greyhound Bus’ stock just went up, they must have finally sold another ticket.

Drunky Smurfs are mostly talk, owing to their teeny tiny itsy bitty lil tallywaker. Least that’s what I’ve heard.

Usually if I’m staring at someone’s chest it’s because I’m trying to read the weird font written there.

You realize that even if you stick up for her she still won’t let you touch them, right? :rolleyes:

> A. Not all tickets are refundable. It really depends on the type of ticket that was purchased. In almost all cases there is a refundable and non-refundable fare available for the same trip. Non-refundable fares have no refund value, but can be exchanged for another ticket for the exact same trip on a later date. Refundable fares are subject to a 20% cancellation fee but can be refunded.

I was alluding to the larger troll problem, some of whom I’m reasonably sure have been not quite so female as they’ve intimated.

I agree that there haven’t been many who’ve led with a “please ogle my boobs!” gambit, however.

Ah, okay. Perhaps not here, but the phenomenon is ubiquitous on forums everywhere. BB’s forums have the problem so bad that if you so much as imply you are a Oman in the Misc section there will be demands for spoon pics.

Anytime someone tells me they’re an Oman, I demand spoon pics as well.

Shoe on head or its a fake. Also, tits or GTFO.

When did the SDMB become 4chan? And finally, I’m shocked to see a join date of this month.

Yeah, **Donna Lange** , it’s a joke from another thread. If I hadn’t already changed my username I’d ask to change it to Fugly Slut because that thread was hilarious.

Here’s the thread.

User, **the lone cashew** , has a melt down and starts calling some female users ugly and sluts.

The slut fun begins in the last post of page 5.

Yup. She removed the link to her photo album, but don’t despair: with a little creative clicking, and you should be able to get to the whole album of mammary delights. Bonus for all you monkeys: there’s a hawt banana shot!!
