your part in my decision

Don’t know if this is the right forum, but if not I guess it’ll be moved.

I have two relatively recent pictures from which to decide which to send to Shayna for the SD people pages and which not to send.

The URL for my homepage is http://www.angelfire.com/va2/iampunha1/index.html

The name of the clothed picture is paddywoo.jpg. If you click on the obvious link it’ll take you to the shirtless one called (duh) paddynoshirt.jpg.

Now, I put the task to you dopers, male and female, to pick your favorite. When I feel there is an overwhelming majority vote for one, I will send it to Shayna.

Happy viewing!

Well, as a guy I’ll have to say - keep your shirt on. For two reasons.

  1. The top of your head is cut off in the shirtless pic.

  2. The rest of us will have no chance with the ladies if you’re half naked like that.

Cheers.

Both pictures are pretty good. I think the shirt one is a bit better, but either is good.

Kid, the shirtless pic makes my blood boil and I’m just barely old enough to be your mother. So, from the hot blooded woman side of me, I say shirt off! But my mothering side yells “Keep your shirt on!” I’m torn.

Grrrowl!!!

The shirtless one!!

And to think I put you on my laminated list BEFORE I saw the pic!

tamster:

  1. How old are you? How old do you think I am? And is your blood boiling a good thing?

  2. My mother doesn’t mind the picture. Hell, my sister took the thing, and she’s 14!

And no, perverts, she does not post here. She doesn’t even know of this place’s existence. And no, she’s not looking for an older man . . . she’s a frosh in high school. No, I will NOT give her those nude pix of you! Stop spamming me! HELP!!!

Trion:

“1) The top of your head is cut off in the shirtless pic.”

Yeah, I know . . . it was either cut that off or cut part of my incredibly slim waistline . . . what can I tell you?

“2) The rest of us will have no chance with the ladies if you’re half naked like that.”

Thus why I introduced this poll! I’d hate to be hated by every single straight guy in here (and half the married ones), but I figure, give the people what they want!

Did I catch this place at a bad time, or do people not really care that much?

Can I vote for the little kid pic?Terribly cute :wink: .
Maybe we ought to do a “When they were young” picture page and all submit our baby pictures…

I have the same problem as tamster.
Half of me is waving dollar bills around screaming,"Take it OFF, Big boy!!"And the other half thinks you look nice clothed.
Hmm…
I vote for ‘shirts’ over ‘skins’.If you run around here nekkid for long one of these wild women may jump you.
And how are we supposed to respect you for your mind with all that man-flesh exposed?
Unless that’s the effect you’re hoping for, of course…
:smiley:

Good lord…you even have to ASK me???

SHIRT OFF!!! PLEASE!!!

Oh, people care, they probably just can’t get through.I kept getting the ‘too many connections’ error page.And it took forever for my reply to go through.
Don’t worry, when traffic slows down a bit, plenty of people will have a comment or two.

Dangit, will you people get off line 31?!! :wink:

iampunha -

Believe me - when it comes to nudity, these people care.

okay, three bunny mama first, then kellibelli

Funny you mention this, as I have a nude bath picture of myself and my mother at home somewhere . . . so I guess yet again my man-flesh comes out (not THAT manflesh . . . you know you were thinking that, too!) However, rules specify either the paddywoo.jog or paddynoshirt.jpg

"Half of me is waving dollar bills around screaming,“Take it OFF, Big boy!!”

I do not take ones. I take fives, tens, twenties, and blank checks. Unmarked bills.

“I vote for ‘shirts’ over ‘skins’.If you run around here nekkid for long one of these wild women may jump you.”

Too late . . . you haven’t seen the convos me and ssskuggiii have, or the ones me and . . .

“And how are we supposed to respect you for your mind with all that man-flesh exposed?”

Whoever made up that rule? This is purely for fun. you can go ahead and respect me for my body or my brain or both. Just keep in mind I have grown since that pic was taken. Hair’s longer (in a ponytail now), body bigger since I’m training for my bit days with falcon and purplebear.

"Unless that’s the effect you’re hoping for, of course… "

Well . . . :wink:

Want to explain this to me? Good growl or not? Beating your chest or beating me with a bat?

“The shirtless one!!”

So I should add you to the list debating shirts vs. skins? LOL!

“And to think I put you on my laminated list BEFORE I saw the pic!”

Which means you liked me for my mind before you adored me as the Greek god I am?

I’m loving this, every minute of it! Keep 'em coming!

three bunny mama, which half of you is waving large bills?

The interesting part will be to see what kind of reaction I get at the next dopefest I attend . . .

I’m having trouble keeping up, but I’ll do my best.

Evidently. I just thought partial nudity for a guy wasn’t that big of a deal . . . evidently I was wrong :slight_smile:

So I’m what’s causing this traffic congestion . . . :*( I’m sorry everybody. I didn’t mean to be bad. I just wanted to gauge the general SDMB opinion.

You know, it’s not like I don’t have a homepage! Y’all can (and evidently have . . . I should install a counter :)) always access it and feel free to make those pictures your desktop or whatever :slight_smile:

Okay, so this is going to my head . . . so what?

So far, the count:

shirt on: 4
shirt off: 2
torn: 1

that’s torn between on and off, not torn shirt.

Never mind how old I am. You said you are 18 so you are not jailbait. However, you sound like a nice person. Good luck with whatever and can you send me a hard copy?

Maybe I should move to another thread . . .

I’m legal. If that’s not enough, a guy at the doctor’s office the other day thought I was 23. ooooohkay . . . People have thought I was both older and younger, and that I was female.

As for the hardcopy . . . the picture was taken with a digital camera, so I don’t have a hardcopy. The most recent picture I have of me without my shirt is from about two and a half years ago, and it is not flattering. I did not at that point work out more than sporadically. My hair is also fairly short.

However, feel free to save the picture on your PC or print it out or whatever. Just don’t distribute it among your friends or anything, k? Thanks.

Keep your shirt on or I will hunt you down and kill you. I had a hard enough time courting and marrying Mrs. O without the likes of you prowling around.

Which means you’re married, and thus I pose no threat to you . . . leading me to the conclusion that you are jealous.

I hasten to point out that it isn’t as if I walk around in public with my shirt off. I usually only have it off when I’m in my yard or at home, early or late.

Anyway, lighten up :slight_smile: As I’ve said before, married women are off-limits for me. Which is a shame, as there are several who, if they weren’t . . . well, we’ll leave that alone.

I vote for Shirt off!!!

And may i say, great smile :slight_smile:

  1. Thanks :slight_smile:

  2. the count is now 5-3-1, in favor of shirt on. Tamster, you cannot stay neutral on this.

Okay. I’ll be straight. Shirt off!
