I really like Guns N’ Roses. It’s funny that I have a hard time admitting that these days since once my bedroom was plastered with their likenesses and I wore my GNR baseball cap every day, day in and day out, for about 2 years, pretty much advertising it to the entire world that, yes, I really like Guns N’ Roses. But now days the guilt I feel about how sexist and racist their lyrics are, and Axl’s apparent complete loss of his marbles, make it difficult to admit that, yes, to this day, I still really like Guns N’ Roses. Pardon me while I rock out.

That’s my name, not a description. I am neither purple nor a bear. Okay, so I’m purple.<a true Wally original!>

His hair is as dark as a blackboard,
I wish he was mine, he’s really divine,
The hero who conquered the Dark Lord.”
'Fraid you don’t give my sex enough credit there, Lexicon. Count me in as one who not only doesn’t mind back hair, but is acually attracted to a hair suit guy.
Your girlfriend may very well be telling the truth.
As far as I’m concerned, guys are supposed to have hair, and the more hair the better. I’ve never understood men who shaved, for instance, their chests. A hairless chest just leaves me cold.
I watched Oprah last week, while at home with the sick kid. I liked it.
Re: picking your nose in the car. Somebody I know happened upon a car accident where a nose-picker rear-ended a police car. My friend was curious, and rolled down the car window as he passed by so he could hear. The policeman was calling for help because her finger was stuck in her sinus. For real. That ought to cure you.
CYGNUS! I have only one of the Gamera MSTs on tape, and considering how old the recording is and how much use it’s gotten, trust me, you wouldn’t want to pay anyone for it!
Check your local video store-- I know a lot of the old episodes are on tape now, some of them in boxed sets of three. And you used to be able to order them directly from the fan club (link to follow if I can find it) but since the show’s been cancelled I’m not sure if the official site is still maintained. Plus, I think somebody had a tape trade going…
Oh, one more embarrassing thing from me: I made myself late for work posting to the board, and when I get to my desk will tell my boss I was having “computer trouble.”
Gamera is really neat, he is full of turtle meat, we’ve been eating Gam-er-aaaa…
That I’ve lived in this house for twelve years and my stove is still brand new… But I’ve gone through three microwaves and lost count of the can openers…
I get crushes on spiky-haired Japanese anime cartoon boys, 2) once ate an entire can of chocolate fudge frosting in one day, 3) blast my old dance-mix disco records when cleaning house, including Vanilla Ice, 4) sent away for a porno tape and hid it under the couch until one night I thought I might be having a heart attack and before calling 911 retrieved it and hid it in the garbage so as not to bring shame to my family’s memory of me as an exemplary wife and mother, 5) have three times in my life “kidnapped” abused animals after secretly finding them new homes. Jeez, I lead a dull life, sorry there’s nothing better…
Hey, Lexicon, count me in among women who like back hair on a man. And chest hair. And, well, just body hair in general. I love it. Your girlfriend might very well be telling the truth.
Oh, and to embarrass myself more, my parents took us to Branson, MO. for vacation four times when I was a teenager. And I had a ot of fun. And I loved the Wayne Newton concert. And I’d love to go back.
I never hate myself in the morning. I sleep till noon.

Well, I guess it’s cool that she loves me for me, but I can’t stand it, it makes me want to yak.
I have to have my friend DeeDee help me nair and wax it.
“Winners never quit and quitters never win, but those who never win and never quit are idiots.”
I like some songs by: the Carpenters, Barry Manilow, Olivia Newton-John, BeeGees, the Captain and Tenille :eek:, Neil Sedaka (esp. the duet “Island Girl” with Elton John), Neil Diamond, Culture Club, Thompson Twins, and Paula Abdul. I also like hip-hop, and even a rap song or two. Of course, I also like the Beatles, Zep, Queen, Squirrel Nut Zippers, and even “Pepper” by Butthole Surfers. I have eclectic taste in music.
I have about 8-9 shelves of romance novels. That I’ve read. At least twice.
I’ve had intense erotic fantasies about several (single) MB regs. Oddly enough, whenever I’ve had an opportunity to fulfill one of those fantasies, the reg acquires a girlfriend. And, no, I didn’t tell them about my lascivious imaginings.
I leave the determination of who I’m talking about as an exercise for the reader.
I do not merely dance. I bewitch. I seduce. I enchant and I bewilder. Throw money.
(Gee, Wally must have seen me dance!)
I watch Buffy every week. I don’t really thinks it’s anything to be ashamed of, since it’s a good show, but someone else already mentioned it, I have to join in.
Okay, I confess
Once, at an event I was bartending, and ‘turned’ vodka in ‘gin’. It was late, they were already all drunk, no one was drinking it straight…
Ahhh, I’ve been carrying it around for so long, thank you for this opportunity.
