Ehhh…the squishing-together-large-breasts look doesn’t do much for me. YMMV, of course.

Thanks, but I am not a guy either! But any guy that reads this is welcome to have that message as his very own… IF that look does it for him, of course. 😉

I put in:

and got back:

No comment, except I’m definitely not of that sexual orientation… can’t speak for anyone else reading this thread, though. 😉

**Flamsterette X** , I got your “I love my friends Jim and Eric” message last night!

Sorry if this is a double post, but my message doesn’t appear to have gone through.

Left: Three Dopers’ screen names, each followed by an anagram of the respective handle.

Received:

If that was posted by the same person who suggested yestersday we “get very p_ **ed", I’d like to know whether “blazed” is milder than "p** _ed”, a step beyond, or something else entirely.

I keep on getting my own message back, which is very boring. I put my last message up and signed my Doper username (so you’ll know it was written by me).

Hope someone else clicks on my message! Let me know!

I get that too, although I have visited that site before. I lack the technical expertise and motive to do anything untoward to them from my computer, so I don’t know whats up with that.

Maybe I’ll email, it’d be nice to have that diversion back again…
