> [@Bricker](#): > > So… would you let or encourage your SO in doing a one-time striptease act to pick up some badly needed cash? And would would DO such a striptease in front of your SO? I’d probably do it, if my SO didn’t object too much. Likewise, i’d probably let her, if she felt ok doing it, unless I had good reason to believe there’d be touchy-touchy patrons. ---

Oh, _suuurrre_, everybody leave me with one more sarcastic post to use up and nothing good to do with it. How _thoughtful_ of you all. I guess nobody wants to hear _my_ deepest secrets. ---

> [@Anaamika](#): > > I’d always wonder if there was something about her that he preferred. In the movie, Harrelson’s character goes through this whole range… it’s his idea initially, and he encourages his wife to do it. Afterwards, though, he can’t stop thinking about it, and asking her about it, and wondering if there was something she liked better with the other guy. They break up over this, but in the end he realizes that it was him driving her away, and she wanted to be with him, even knowing the choice she had. So they end up together. Not that movies are a reliable guide to life, of course, since the players therein dance to the beat of a scriptwriter’s drum, not necessarily their own real hearts and emotions. > [@](#): > > Who amongst your family would you make out with if you had to? I can’t remember if you put a limit on it, but if you did, keep the same limit. Tough one. I have only one brother, two male cousins, and one living parent. None of them are remotely palatable for this task. I do have a set of second cousins that are cute, although I’ve never met them. In a way, it’s not really fair to pick them, since I hardly know them and therefore the relative-ick factor isn’t there. But I’m NOT smooching Mom or my brother. Or either of my cousins. Now, my sister-in-law… hmmm… (There, I stop, because that’s the only thing I’ve said so far in this thread that would cause Mrs. Bricker to smack me. Hard.) ---

> [@YaWanna](#): > > Since you asked for it, what’s your deepest secret? Probably that I am prone to recurring dreams (nightmares?) about having sex with my brother. They’re about the most explicit sex dreams I have, and they make me feel icky for a week afterwards. Luckily, I don’t have these dreams very often any more. I think they peaked in college. ---

> [@YaWanna](#): > > I’ll take another truth. (Why are they mostly about sex?) Because, in general, we aren’t reticent about sharing our experiences and views concerning, say, school vouchers, or marginal tax rate hikes. So this game often tends to roam towards the sex end of things. Like, for instance… The last time someone asked you to do something, sexually, you didn’t want to do… what was it, how were you asked, and how did you demur? ---

> [@Feydeau](#): > > I’ll take a Dare, hoping that it won’t be as bad as my last one. Give us the text of your ISO ad, where you’re advertising to find a casual sexual encounter with someone because your SO won’t let you do “X”. You won’t consider leaving your SO, but you’re truly desperare to experience “X”. And of course, you have to figure out something that sounds convincingly good - realistic or humorous - for “X”. ---

Lessee, the way I remember it, he wanted to go backdoor, which he “requested” by way of trying to enter the rear orifice, to which I responded with a loud “no way!” and pulled away from him. There are things _other_ than sex that people don’t normally don’t…wait a minute, I must’ve forgotten where I’m at. :smack: ---

> [@Anaamika](#): > > Describe the type of female that is most attractive to you. I mean, is she busty? Or slim? Long/short hair? What color? Etc. Oh, lord. This is gonna be tough in pirate. Last one, though. What do i look for in a wench, ye ask? Well, she’s got to have hair as black as the eyes of the sea-beast of bastion, arr, though brunette be good too, says i!Length wise, i be unbothered, though gen’rally mid back length be good, but ‘tis rare for it must be trouble. Eyes, arr, they can be beautiful whatever colour they be, but ol’ pirate revenant, he likes green the best! Arr, there be nothing like a pair o’ green eyes… Yarrr, but ye’ve got me daydreamin’ at me post! Shame on ye, lass! Where was i? Arr! Bodywise, i’m liking a type betwixt slim, ‘n a more curvier shape, harr harr, and whoile i be a breast man (pirate?), i’m preferring something around a B-C in the chest area, yarr. Shape be more important than size in that regard, indeed ‘tis so. Personality wise, well, a sense o’ humour is most important, and ol’ pirate revenant, he likes a touch of geekiness, so he does! Arr, and a bit o’ verbal sparring be a fine quality to have in a relationship; like i’ve always said, a battle o’ wits be like a modern mating ritual, yarr harr! I like a woman i c’n compete with, so i do. Hooray! My pirate-ness is over. Anyone want to give me a new dare?
