Tough choice…I think a Porsche Boxter…but if they weren’t springing for teh extravagant line, I really like those little Mini-Coopers…I was going to buy one but (sigh) the family car died and I had to buy a new SUV instead.
If you could have an all expense paid vacation for 1 week to anywhere in the world, where would you go?
Oh and PS…I don’t have a dick but if I did, I don’t think that is why I wouldn’t hang it out of my pants, although I do support nudity as a practice as well.
OK, let’s use a metaphor more suited for a woman. Let’s use walking around topless. It’s legal. (Well, it is here in Ontario. Your local laws may vary.) You’re not hurting anybody. You must have walked around topless many times in the past, right? No? Why not? Because it’s not a very classy thing to do. Because you do care about what people think of you. You don’t want to deal with the negative reaction that goes with the action.
I know, it’s not a perfect analogy, but it’s the best I could come up with to get my point across.
Count me as one who has “resorted” to ‘don’t be surprised. . .’ and who will continue to “resort”.
If you act like a racist asshole because you are just being yourself, you’re going to get your ass handed to you.
If you act like an incoherent, blabbering idiot because you are just being yourself, you are going to be ruthlessly mocked.
If you act like an intelligent and rational human being because you are just being yourself, you will be respected by most.
If you act like a frustrated horn dog because you are just being yourself, you are going to have people thinking that you are a pathetic cyber-sex attention whore and beg you to pull up your panties and get your crotch outa our faces…
By all means, whomever or whatever you are, just be yourself. However, just don’t expect that there will be no comments when you make “yourself” visible on a public message board.
I’ll tell you what hardy I’ll let you know when I have a problem with being considered an exhibitionist/flirty chick on here and I’ll say you were right the whole time…
But, FTR, I’m an attorney, I get intellectual validation EVERY DAMN DAY…I wear Jones New York Suits and behave mostly prim and proper. I can’t be WILD AND CRAZY anymore because I work for a high-profile, conservative firm…I can be wild and crazy here and it’s nice. It’s nice that I can talk about my bisexuality, about the OLDER man I’m dating, about getting a frickin boob job.
And guess what, I mostly stay out of the flirt threads…about once every 6 months I pop in with a topic that does scream “LOOK AT ME I’M A HOT CHICK” and I have a brain. Why? I’m a hot chick, but I can’t acknowledge that on a day-to-day basis or it’s a topic that I can’t talk about due to my career. And you know what’s so nice? Bringing the HEY-LOOKIT ME stuff to folks who truly appreciate it…who see the motivation, but whatever, I don’t think a self-aggrandizing thread every 6 months puts me on par w/ Kay Kay.
And Diane, I actually don’t really see you as being neutral on this one, but here’s an example. You ever ask a friend or SO if your ass looks big in an outfit? It’s that type of deal. I’ve been told that I can be very critical of my body…ridiculously so…so yeah, a truly objective opinion would be nice…it’s not like if someone from here complimented me I’d jump on his/her lap and well…do things to them. Also, it would be nice to hear from anyone who’s gotten it done…also need to know a lot about what potential child birth could do to the girls…
BBJ, there is a difference between gathering information and first hand experiences when having a surgical proceedure done to your body compared to gathering the opinions posted on a message board and going with a majority rules vote.
Maybe you didn’t mean it to come across the way that you did, but it certainly appeared to be the latter.
Dammit, Diane, if I see a thread titled “I May Be Quiescently Frozen, But I’m Hot Inside ;)”, I will not only blame you but will fly to your home to fart on your head.
:dubious:
hardygrrl, please accept my sincere apologies. It has come to my attention that BBJ has indeed gone off the deep end with the self aggrandizing. I now agree that the whole boob-job thing was a ploy to dredge the depths for a some base form of attention and to feed the ego of someone already enamored with herself. I’m a bit embarrassed that I could have thought otherwise.
After all, who better to give you an honest opinion of your breasts - a plastic surgeon who trained for years or a bunch of people skilled at one hand typing? :dubious:
Popsicle, frozen inside, stick up her ass…yep could be.
Lick you? I thought you were nailing others for posting propositions. Hypocrisy at it’s best right here in the pit. Sounds like you would fit right into the Spit & Swallow Pub.
You know I keep saying that. But some people just keep saying what a skeeve I am (funny they KEEP reading though) You have a good attitude. Keep an open mind.
I agree about the labeling and I have never hijacked a non-sexual thread and maybe I just haven’t read threads that were hijacked - I’ll concede that.
But what you said about being popular…funny I never considered tht because I never thought of any of them as exclusive groups. And you are right I consider it be muey harmless…whatever, every body has the right to their opinion and as far as the insults…did you notice I posted a rather ambiguous remark and someone just assumed I was talking about them. Guess if the shoe fits…
Oh mipiace, you’re so like cute and stuff but dumb as a rock.
Maybe I should have said “kiss” my ass instead of “lick” but then you really don’t actually “kiss” popsicles, ya know? Jeeeeezus, isn’t it odd how some things just seem to fly over the heads of the pud pounders and the twat twiddlers. I wonder if there is a correlation there, I just know that I’m just getting kinda tired of having to explain to the impaired.
It shouldn’t matter anyway because I take back my licking offer. I am not sure if you have had your shots and I certainly wouldn’t want to catch anything.
Here’s a wee comment from someone who’s been in online communities of one form or another for… ooh… 12 or so years now. That may not sound much in IRL time, but I think it’s about 84 years net-time.
Attention whores are only popular with other attention whores. This seems like a lot of people when you’re just reading since… well… attention whores post a lot and tend to get attention. So the attention whoring appears to be working. Success! Lots of attention!
But when you actually meet up with a larger sample of the community IRL you realise just what a large proportion of them either despise, pity or just plain laugh at the pathos of the attention whores. Just because 20% of readers make up 80% of the posts, doesn’t mean that the other 80% of readers don’t exist. They’re there, they are judging you, they are forming conclusions and they hate your attention whoring asses.
The 5% of the population that are attention whores all gather in threads like this to back eachother up. They end up blinded by eachothers’ radiance. And so the appearance that the attention whoring is enjoyable, fun and makes them popular remains intact.
Now you can do with this information what you wish. I don’t give a fuck. I’ve read too many threads and too many posts in too many different types of online forum for too many years to care. I’ve been every type of poster there is, before “cynical curmudgeon” finally stuck and I will not interfere one jot with what you post. Everybody finds their path in their own way. If you want to carry on being loathed by 80%+ of the population you are attention whoring in front of, go to it my child with open arms and even more open legs. Personally, my eyes don’t even see the flirting posts any more, they automatically scan down. So knock yourselves out.
