Does it really matter as long as _I_ come? 🙂

It is all becoming clear. C#3 has been very interested in my sex life lately. He’s been married for how many years? (PULEEEEZE don’t tell us again) The poor, pathetic slob is sexually frustrated! HA HA HA HA !!!

The old man is obviously spanking the spider monkey as he fantasizes from the threads!

Eeeeewwwwww. . … now that’s a gruesome thought!

Damn! Gotta start paying more attention to the sigs.

A spelling class wouldn’t hurt, either.

Sorry.

Diane, you are a Goddess. I will build a shrine to…

Never mind. Everybody’s got my number now.

Gonna change my name and come back as a UFO-watching, spell-casting, liberal-bashing, gun-toting, free-thinking, bible-preaching, born-again left wing radical Lesbian.

Maybe then, I’ll get the attention and respect I deserve, dammit!

Love ya!

Wally, I have to admit you have me perplexed now. You are going to come back as “liberal-bashing, left wing radical?” HOw is this possible?

How is it possible to be a liberal AND a left-wing basher at the same time?

Easy. Masochism.

(Either that, or an interpretation of “bashing” that’s more along the lines of “spanking the monkey”.)

Er, Tracer, perhaps you are unaware that “liberal” and “left-wing radical” are two vwery different things, and that many (if not most) “left-wing radicals” hold liberals as much in contempt as they do conservatives. That was motre common back in the 60s, of course, when there were actually such things as “liberal jokes” (no, I don’t mean Hubert Humphrey).

There’s a simple explanation.

Hey, how did I get sucked into this thread? I had better do some global searches!

Oh well, whether I am the one being called upon by the Almighty or not, if I am not troll before, I guess I will be troll now! I may as well grovel and maybe the Omnipotent will condescend to toss a morsel of the “glory of God” this way. Just think, such BYZANTINE contraptions that may be used on me: wow…my mind is already halfway there! And to think, I can finally use my tools on something other than cars and houses! At the very least I will cherish the slice of Kiss that dropped my way that had been showered upon all!

I just wanted to mention that, as I’m reading this thread right now, there are 69 messages in it. It just seemed _so_ appropriate.

Of course, now that I’ve posted this, there are going to be 70 messages in this thread, which kinda destroys the romance – but, hey, I figgered this moment in history had to be preserved.

You could always wait for 669, or 699, or hell, lets take everyone in this thread:

Is this a great debate?Is this “about this board?” Should this be in MPSIMS where the people involved will read it?

Just questions, don’t flame me.I won’t be back to this thread.

well my thoughts on this is i think its totally wrong for people that are married or have serious relationships to flirt like I see some of these people doing. But your decision. I just choose to not be involved nor involved with anyone that does act this way. Also Cheif Scott or whatever your name is, I posted threads about questions, nothing to do with flirting even if they were sexual they were goofy general questions. I did it to get a rise outta people and thats exactly what I got. so you can take it any way you choose. personally I dont care.

There is really no reason to resurrect this thread. If you wanna link to it, that’s swell, but resurrecting a thread just to point out how similar it is to a current one is just plain pointless.
