I said it was from middle school, decades ago. We were fucking 12 years old. It cracked US up back then. I’m sorry I puzzled you all so. I’m sorry it’s not a brilliant bon mot from Chris Rock or whoever the hell you think is funny now, LOL… Please. Try to forget it, don’t think about it, and just…move on! Go take pictures of your damp mushrooms.

He’d whack me on the arm. Or throw grass on me. Or chase me with a bug in his hand. I finally popped him in the face, hard. Broke his glasses and he made a bloody mess. After that, I did the chasing. Stanley was never the same.🙂

bu…bbuuu…bbbbuuuuu…Becky? dats you?

Well I hope y’all don’t talk about penises lol that’s kinda weird

Ok. Maybe you havent been with any small fellows though

And I’m sorry to all for bumping this thread back up again, but have y’all heard of the “666” millennial rule of dating? 6 figure income, 6 feet tall, 6 inch dick 😃

No, I have never heard of that. Did you really have to come back and share that? Since you couldn’t get validation on your pet theory do you seek to attempt humor to win us over? I’m not entirely clear on what your purpose is in returning.

And he seems to think that a “6 inch dick” is quite a lot, which is telling.

My dick is 4".

But most women think that’s just waaay too wide.

I’m still trying to figure out the difference between penis height and penis size.

We’ve already figured out he’s a shorty. He probably thinks 6" is a lot because it hangs halfway to his knees.

Read up to the end of pg 3 - good enough…

The bolded provided one of the better laughs I’ve had in a while. Thank-you.  
Let’s hope the OP takes that one to heart.

Not to mention agonizing over finding just that right size of jockstrap.

Let me guess, but I’ll bet that in these last two pages, that question still wasn’t addressed.

OP: what incel site are you reporting back to?
