If I weren’t, I’d only be criticising myself…
bossk,
I don’t think it’s logical to assume that ugly–BTW just how exactly do YOU define ugliness? Is it a lack of intelligence, physical beauty, or what? What specific criteria make a woman intelligent and/or physically beautiful for you?–women read romance novels, especially since you admit you ain’t never seen nobody read them.
Personally, I get so excited when I see folks, especially youngun’s, readin’ books, whether it’s a Harlequin or a dialogue by Plato, rather than clickin’ around for hours on the dang-blasted internet lookin’ for pornography; watchin’ them nasty music videos where everybody’s ass is hangin’ out they clothes and they ain’t talkin’ ‘bout nothin’ but SEX, SEX, SEX; or watchin’ all them violent, gory picture shows where all they do is BLOW UP stuff to take folks’ minds off the fact that there ain’t much of a plot. At least with books folks are required to use their imaginations and maybe learn a little history, rather than sit back and be passively spoon-fed crap.
FWIW, I think I’m a beautiful, intelligent woman–I’ve certainly been told so enough times by strangers from NY to California–and I’ve read all kinds of romance novels and found them to be a hoot–BTW, I believe the original meaning of “romance” is “history”–but then I love reading so much that I’ll read pretty much anything I can get my hands on. I don’t read anything in public because I’m too busy watching people, but I’m so tempted to go out today, pick up a Harlequin, and read it a local bookstore. [giggle]
Well, poop. I didn’t read the other thread, so I preened too early. Shame on me.
Oh, but I can’t be prom queen, because they’re always cute, and I can read. According to the rules of this discussion, the two are mutually exclusive.
Hmm… I wonder… Bossk, do you like it when ladies perfume their crotches for you?
Just takin’ a poll, big guy.
Kudos on the excellent analogy, Bossk.
If I didn’t fervently believe that your sole purpose in starting this thread was to irritate people, I would tell you what a self-involved, arrogant, egotistical, condescending ass hair you are and commend you on your excellent use of straw-men in the post directed at Crunchy Frog.
But since I think we all know you don’t actually read books, despite your misleading OP, I will instead cordially invite you to stick a firecracker up your ass and do a little dance for me.
Good bye!
Sara, you are a model of restraint and I love you for it.
Now I would like to point out once again the thread I linked to previously and draw the parallel to Bossk’s behavior there and in this thread:
[ul]*Lame, not very well thought-out OP.
*Numerous replies to the subject are posted.
*Bossk’s only reply consists of childish behavior.
*He has posted nothing to back up his statements or reply to any post dealing with the OP.[/ul]
He’s not worth it people. Two threads I’ve seen of his in the Pit so far and they both look like he just wants to pick a fight or he’s just a hit & run poster.
The implications of which will be left as an exercise for the reader…
jayjay
Be a lot of exercise for the girl, too.
I asked a simple question. You brought your own prejudices to the table. Don’t blame me.
And I’ll dance with a firecracker up my ass if that’ll make you happy. But you must stand at least ten feet back with a bit in those horse teeth of yours. They frighten me.
And again, no response to the 60-odd other posts, no explanation or answers to questions put to him, just picking out the one post where he can make yet another personal attack.
Same MO as before people.
DNFTT
I have to share this with ol’ bossy boy/girl/whatever
~Beauty of a Woman~
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman must be seen from her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart - the place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman Is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, The passion that she shows.
The beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.
I turn heads everywhere I go mostly because people are staring or pointing and laughing. But I don’t care because I know the woman I really am and if idiots like that don’t want to take the time to know the real Ayesha then it is their loss. And I for one do not care for romance books, they give me hives. (But a good smutty, steamy, dirty sex story is a horse of a different color.)
So on behalf of ugly women everywhere you can bite my big fat ugly butt. (well this is the pit)
Here’s the deal, Bossk: You post an OP. Despite the fact that it’s offensive and immature, a number of posters make a valid effort to honestly answer it. You’ll notice that only one poster out-and-out attacked you; everyone else was generally kind, myself included. The only follow-up post you make insults another poster and makes futher offensive and immature remarks and ultimately insults every poster who responded to your question. The next post? More insults. It’s rude, childish, and a waste of everyone’s time.
That’s not the sort of behavior the mods smile upon here. You are being a jerk. You are breaking the numero uno commandment. There’s no doubt in my mind that you will be out of here shortly.
It was nice chatting with you, though.
I read whatever I can get my hands on. A friend recently gave me a box full of ‘harlequin’ romance novels.
Look at the link in my sig. Am I ugly? No? Then shut up.
If no one’s said this already: Beautiful description, Magic-Gro!
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…
This, Ginger, in case you didn’t read “really fucking obvious answers you’ll see fuckheads give”, is bossk’s way of trying to say “Hey, I’m going to think of something insulting to say that I can claim was just intended as thought put into words, when what I really want to mean, and what I am hoping you’ll read it as, is ‘I think you are disgusting’. What I am actually thinking is ‘FUCK! I could have been with HER, but I fucked everything up.’”
But then, bossk will never admit that. I expect a response from this that will bleed “Fuck, you’re right, how did you know?”, similar to the one I got from da’cook in the pop music thread.
A friend in the movie industry says that Kristen Johnson (3rd Rock) spends her time between takes smoking and reading romance novels.
Yup. Made the fucker speechless.
And punha, I love you.
Yeah, Ginger’s ugly. That hair, those eyes, and oh, those lips.
But I’m nuts about you anyway, Ginger.
Will you be my concubine?
You know, if she didn’t already have such a perfect sig, I’d bet money she’d change it to this.
Especially considering Slip’s a cop. Uniform and all that jazz.
Sigh . . . Red-heads get all the hotties:(
