LOL oh my god I never thought about it !!! Actually two friends of mine came up with it (girls) but then again they were in the middle of coming up with a list of single guys I could date lol… so perhaps they had another agenda in mind lol… :smack: at me for not seeing that !!!

**Honeydew** , if you had picked the other name, they’d have been saying something about your arse.

Well yeeeaaaah…but if she were on top she couldn’t be _just_ sitting there. I’m not sure that really qualifies as “sitting”.

Thanks for the attempted save Branwen and I like the way you think - maybe I meant just LAYING there or just whatever - being a dead fuck. that is really what I meant if you’d like me to be more graphic.

Well, since the only other definition I know for honeydew is “a sticky sweet oozing substance”…yeah I’d say your friends were tryingto get you dates :).

Goodness. Consider your audience. Of COURSE we want you to be more graphic. 🙂

And I knew what you meant. But you’ll have to excuse me, I have some furniture designs to work on :D.

Thanks for the smile - I am a little irritated right now and could use a laugh. When you get your furniture designs complete, can you link the plans for us? I’ll volunteer to beta them. 😉

On the OP: I’ll swallow. Or snowball him, or take it wherever! As long as it doesn’t get in my eyes, I’m happy:)

On the topic of taste… It’s possible someone has posted on this already, but I gave up on reading through the whole thread! Sorry…  
I copied this a while ago, can’t remember from where:

“If all your boyfriend drinks is coffee and beer, if all he does all day is smoke cigs and snort crystal, if he eats nothing but bacon and bleu cheese burgers, then everything he excretes is gonna smell and taste vile. He can sweeten his love loads by drinking plenty of water, avoiding nicotine, caffeine, and alcohol, and eating bushels of fresh fruits and vegetables (except, of course, for the dreaded asparagus, which makes come taste exactly like Beaver Brand Tangy Hot Mustard).”

That goes for both “his love loads” and a woman’s juices;) I can personally attest that imbibing lots of beer doesn’t do much for for the taste of either…

Also on the OP (you can’t expect us to read 17 pages on BJ’s):

My girlfriend spits and it kind of bugs me. The first time, she brought her head up from under the sheets and made the spitting motion with her hand (bring all your fingers together and then flick them out, like your drying your hands), you don’t know oddity until you’re staggering around your house with your dick hanging out trying to find a container that you don’t mind getting a little jizz in. Yowza, that’s unpleasant.

Yuck Quack… somehow I would find it so much more unpleasant to sit there for x minutes waiting for someone to bring me something to spit into. Sheesh she needs to be more prepared if that’s how she wants to handle things 🙂

Hey, folks! Did ya’ miss me while I was gone? (Someone say yes, even if it’s a lie.) **mia** wasn’t the only one who was “irritated”, yesterday, so I took a night off. Didn’t want to growl at the wrong people, for no reason.

**Tiram** , welcome to our perverse little party, and to the board. 🙂

I’ve read similar assertions, before, but have no real way of knowing. Perhaps it’s true, but, I’ve tasted both non-smoking and smoking women, and there doesn’t seem to be a correlation based on just that one factor. It seems to make sense, though. Maybe it takes more than just one factor.

**Quack** , welcome to you, too. 🙂

That sounds like a most unpleasant experience, and that is definitely counter to all headiquette.

And, I have to say, it’s very cool that people are still popping into this thread and posting on topic. And, no, I don’t blame anyone, in the least, for not reading all…17!..pages.

Have you sprung a leak, or something? Need me to slap a patch on it? We wouldn’t want those melons going all soft. 😃

And, thank you. 🙂

Speaking of springing a leak… I was reading in one of my books that during orgasm a lactating woman can shoot milk clear across the room!

Oh and I’ve heard a variety of foods and drinks that are supposed to improve taste. My favorite:rolleyes: was Mountain Dew. I don’t care how sweet he thought he tasted… if you can only imagine the effects of about 10 litres of mountain dew a day on the human body…

I’ve heard pineapple is really supposed to help the taste…

I don’t know about across the room but I definitely leaked. Kind of freaked my ex out but then he was easily freaked out anyway. Also makes things kind of sticky and gives a new meaning to “the wet spot”

I’ve been here all along, I was just masturbating quietly in the corner. (per the op, no, I didn’t swallow)

One comment I’d like to make, a couple pages back when we were talking about ejaculating chocolate or honey or whatever instead of sperm (I’m too lazy to find a quote)…I wish I could do cool-aid. That way I could rotate amongst like 100 different flavors, and get some really wicked colors for a nice visual effect. Especially like that technicolor blueberry they have!

I have had the _best_ week!!!

Last thursday I saw George Carlin live.

Tonight //\etallica kicked ass on MTV!!!

This afternoon, the:

-black  
-leather  
-cupless  
-corset

- with buckle-on g-string (not a strapon, chill)  
-and matching, seam-in-the-back stockings

arrived, just in time for the //\etallibabe to wear them for me this weekend. There will be swallowing involved.

It’s good to be me (this week, at least)

Oh…HEY LIZARD -------\> \*_BUMP_

Oh, there’ll be individual differences – some will be less affected than others[1] – but it can make a huge difference. Like I was trying to say about beer in my first post here:)

[1] The same way some ppl. will smell _awful_ after eating garlic, while with others you can’t even tell.

Isn’t it just a matter of rerouting hoses to that metal head of yours? Seems like it should be easier for you than for most guys. 😉

LOL! Actually, Lizard may not be as bad as he appeared, from that one post. He may actually be an all right guy. I’m not sure, yet, though. I may feel differently, depending on if/how he responded to me in a couple other threads.

Yeah, mine’s a larger, too, but…oh!..beer…_blush_…coming right up!

And, I have to ask. Whence comes the “knuckles” quote in your sig? Great quote, BTW.
