Women only

[dejolane]

What 1 thing do you do special for your man ? Men think we have to do the ironing,clean for him and etc.. So here is the place to say what is on your mind and tell the men to do things for himself.

[AjaxthePixie]

My fiance is a student in the Marine Corps right now, going through infantry and intelligence courses (he is an officer) so we only see each other on the weekends, and he spends A LOT of time "in the feild" getting his butt kicked by the elements and eating MREs.

So I cook! I am a military cook, and have foudn a love for it otherwise, so I try to come up with really big, fancy meals to fill his belly and keep him thinking of me while he starves at school!

[elevelyn]

I try to make my boyfriend really smile at least once a day, can't really bitch about him cause he does nothing wrong..... which does annoy me sometimes

i have alot of things on my mind at the mo that i cant really talk to anyone about, my mother is really sick, she has emphysema and finds things really hard right now and theres nobody there to help her, its just her and my baby sister in her house and none of the rest of my family really cares how she is except me (long story), so im always fighting with guilt because i dont help or visit as much as i can, i hate my job but cant quit, also have to find somewhere new to live,

Sorry if im boring the readers of this but feel better now i've let some of it out

[Kim L.]

My husband cooks, buys most of the groceries and does most of the laundry. No complaints here but much appreciation.

[LadyPain]

I make coffee that puts Starbucks, etc, to complete shame. My guy is a coffee snob, so I make the good stuff.

[brownmouse]

you know, not enough. I used to do more but lately I have been mighty selfish, I fear.

I used to make fancy appetizers just for us to eat after our girl went to bed and make our family room all romantic- fire in fire place, throws, pillows...and rent a good movie and buy a good bottle (or 2) of wine. It was our "date" night.

I used to wear lingerie for him now he's lucky if I style my hair and put make up on.:sad:

Hmmm I used to do a lot more for him. I better think on this some more.

[hipmamajen]

I get up later than my husband, so a lot of nights I put sticky notes on the mirror over his sink so he'll see them first thing. Just sweet stuff, nothing really epic :)

Sorry to hear about your mom and I'm glad you feel a little better having talked about it. You're not boring us, please don't worry abut that.

Kim,
Where can I get a man like your husband ? Or can I have him ? Just kidding. A man who does housework is a blessing.:rofl:

Debbie

[Kitten]

Well, I don't have a man at this time. BUT, here are some of the things I used to do for him...

. give him the best piece of toast and eat the burnt one myself
. I bought him flowers sometimes (he doesn't remember)
. I always made sure he had a birthday cake

[sheba41]

Well, i do the usual thing's,like cleaning,cooking etc. but i also paint the house,wallpaper the house, I am a tiler.....etc. etc. ...but you now...I like doing that thing's and my husband is a very lucky man.....

[Kim L.]

Kim,

Debbie

Nah, he's not for sale or rent. :smile2:

[Shasta]

I don't give him a hard time for working on his music. I may get a bit frustrated when I have had a hard day at work, come home and do laundry, pay bills, and cook, all while trying to write my books but I never (rarely ever) say a word to him about the fact that he's done NOTHING all day but sit in his studio. It's what he loves and he's a WONDERFUL husband so I am happy to let him have some peace. He cooks most of the time, actually, cleans the entire house, scoops the cat litter, goes to the bank for me, gets groceries, and cleans my car. Really, why wouldn't I give him peace?!

[Lizard slushie]

My husband works shiftwork, and sometimes when he's on swings I'll stay up until midnight and fix him dinner so it's hot when he gets home.

[brownmouse]

I get up later than my husband, so a lot of nights I put sticky notes on the mirror over his sink so he'll see them first thing. Just sweet stuff, nothing really epic :)

Oh, oh, you reminded me (I still do this, mostly)-when he goes on a business trip I hide notes in his clothes in his suitcase. You know, just "good night, I love you", " Have a great day, hon"...things like that and oh, "if you cheat on me while you are out of town I will rip your dingy off and feed it to the dogs" :smile2:

[Todash]

He does drive me nuts sometimes, but generally I let it go because I can; I just have that type of personality. It used to bug me that I had to be the mostly "flexible" one, but I found that once I accepted that, magically he has gotten more flexible. Anyway.

Some special things I do for him:

I make his lunch every day.
I get off work earlier than he does, so I try to have dinner ready when he walks in the door.
I always make the iced tea even though he drinks 90% of it because "I make it better." :p
I send him emails at work, especially if I know he is having a rough time, just to tell him I love him.
I buy him things I know he will like but would not buy for himself.

I am going to do the note on the mirror thing. That sounds so sweet.

[BlackEye]

I know I am not supposed to be in here. I'm all about breaking rules though. ;)

But the one thing I like is when my wife puts my baby boy next to my head and lets him wake me up. He is at the point now where he can kind of roll up to me and suck on my cheek or chin. He also is active with his hands. So it is the only time I like waking up to a good smack in the mouth. :smile2:

[poisonbat]

What can I say, I do everything for my husband. He really doesn't have any responsibilities except going to work. I guess the one thing that I do especially for him is to sort all of his T shirts into different drawers (1. work shirts 2. good shirts 3. stained to wear in the garage) so that he doesn't have to shuffle through all his drawers to find what he is looking for. I also always ask what he is looking for when I see him searching for something, I usually know exactly where it is anyway.:bat:

[mogget3]

Men are hopeless,they think they are very tough and macho and know the answer to everything,but the truth is that they know jackshit.

I have yet to meet a man who is not a moron in the household. And I have yet to meet a woman who will tell me the opposite....

Men always want solutions to every problem. Don't they know woman only want a shoulder or at least a listening ear??

Men see things in a small box,woman see them in a round room...

My husband's idea of cleaning is making little piles of stuff.:biggrin2: But he is a great guy. And he does do the dishes and cooks a lot. I have to say not all men are macho jack---es. There are a few good ones out there. But then they are accused of being 'too nice'.- at least that's what all my single friends say when they meet a good one.

[Dana Jean]

Oh. I thought this was a thread where we were going to talk about that not-so-fresh feeling.:oo: My bad.

[Haunted]

Close out ALL DISTRACTIONS. AND LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN AND MOST OF ALL HEAR HIM.

[Cola]

Ok finally getting around to some of these threads -

My husband and I try to do things 50/50 - that includes the baby - when he comes in from work he has his dinner and he takes her off me - he is really great :love:

He bathes her every night and does the bedtime routine - bottle any medicines - things like that and gets up with her during the night.

Shoot.... what do I do again - lol :love:

We really do try to keep things on an even keel though - its the way it should be

Oh and he irons his own shirts for work - I wash and dry but he irons :love:

[Cola]

Ok.......

I think I just posted alot of stuff about my man in the wrong thread - not too sure though :(

[Cola]

Yes I did - I put it in the bragging thread :(

Ah well I suppose I can brag about him too - lol :)

[Eleese of Gilead.]

I take my medication every day.:biggrin2:

-HAHA!

He's been super busy these last two yrs. Full time school + two jobs. Basically I took on most of the household chores, I hold the full time job so he calls me his sugar mama.

I think that me agreeing to work full time so he can do his schooling has meant a lot. I usually do whatever he asks me to, for example he worked fri-sun as per usual, he'll ask me to wash something or so on and he's so polite that I wouldn't say no even if I wanted to.

We live as starving students so I have to be creative when it comes to surprises, usually it involves his favourite meal or a rare night out...ooh yes he got his diploma 2 weeks ago and I was able (with the help of family) to get him these darn golf clubs he's had on hold for months! I think I was just as excited to give them then he was to get 'em.

Yay for love! :love:

Also, I'm learning some good tricks from this thread, great idea.

[BlackEye]

Here you go girls...

Oops, did I just pee in the pool again. Sorry! :smile2:

[Sundrop]

I don't remind him that He's wrong most of the time, and I'm right. Even though he is and I am!!:biggrin2:

[smooth operator]

My husband has a decent job. He does his own laundry and picks up around the house. He loves yard work and spends a lot of time doing it.
However, he will often go hungry rather than feed himself and then complain about it. He suffers from an extreme case of the "Peter Pan" syndrome - I am so tired of being the only grown-up in my home. And he is spends money faster than we can make it.
Other than that, he's okay. I know I could have done much worse.

[MadamMack]

Trust me Sundrop . . .he knows.

[skimom]

I can't agree with you mogget 3-sorry you've had such bad luck. My husband, while certainly not perfect, doesn't come near the troll you've described:smile2:. He works full time while I take care of home and kids (by mutual agreement), so every minute I can sit here doing this, I thank him. He also cooks wonderfully every weekend (used to be a professional chef).

The thing that I do (well, the one that's G-rated:biggrin2:), is to get up at an ungodly hour to make his breakfast and lunch while he showers, so he can sleep a few minutes longer. You have to understand that I HATE WAKING UP EARLY-I'm most definitely NOT a morning person. It gives us a few blessedly kid-free moments, and allows us to remember we're a couple first, last, and always.:smile2:

[cocomajo]

buy the groceries, cook ,do the dishes, feed the dog, pay the bills, buy the presents/ cards for his family, clean, go to the dump, bank post office, drug store, gas station, go to school meetings take kid to karate, watch what he wants on tv, make the bed hey, next time i want a wife!

[mudpuppy]

The list:

1. get up early and walk our dogs
2. pack his lunch
3. get home first and make dinner
4. half the time do the dishes ( he'll do the other half)
5. do our laundry
6. clean the house
7. buy the groceries
8. plan our entertainment

He doesn't really do as much at home as I do. One problem is that when he does a project it ends up creating a project for me. Like if he cleans one room there will be a resulting mess made in another room. So, usually he will practice his bass while I chore. Plus he has band practice 2 mights a week, and every Monday night he spends at his parents house, so for the most part his schedule keeps him busy. Occasionally I will have complaints with this, but for the most part I like being alone so it works out.

But I totally get the Peter Pan thing, my husband will not feed himself when he's hungry and then there are problems. He'll get too hungry and lose his sense of humor, so I make sure the meals are on time.

Distribution of duties aside, I'm very pleased with the one I have. He's a good guy.

[AngelZ]

My husband is pretty independant. Doesn't like people, including me, doing things for him. He even does his own laundry and ironing. But he does appreciate me taking care of the bills because he hates taking care of the finances. This is a actually a boon, so I don't have to explain the credit card bills...Just kidding. :biggrin2:

[Mjenn]

I married a Swede, and they are pretty big on 50/50 equality in the home . . .

So, I have to say, this is mostly true for us, too. Thankfully! I'd make a terrible homemaker.

We take turns cooking, and both vacuum, mop, pick up, laundry, etc.

The things I do for him? Try to surprise him now and then, esp. with his love of chocolate. Make something special for dinner when he's had a long day. Try not to bother him when he gets a chance to sleep in, take care of the dog & plan my work schedule around that.

But most of all, just try to be a good support, cheerleader, and listener....

[Srbo]

Just one question:

With a thread title like this " Women only "...what do you think how many of us men peeked at this thread ?

:biggrin2:

[LadyPain]

Move to Canada. You could have a wife here. :p

[Todash]

Move to Canada. You could have a wife here. :p
But if there are two wives ... who's the real (grocery-totin', laundry-folding, bathroom-scrubbing, dinner-cooking, vacuum-pushing) wife? :eyebrow:

[arista]

I thought it was like some womenly secrets being shared...Darn..We all know that women are a mystery! Just like we like it..

[LadyHitchhiker]

I rub and scratch his feet after a long day.
I always make his birthday a big deal.
I try not to make our wedding anniversary a big deal but instead celebrate when we first started going out (his father died on our wedding day).
I try not to make a big deal out of valentine's day (the ed kept her alive for ten minutes after valentine's day just so they could say she didn't die on valentine's day).
Sometimes I just let HIM have the remote and we watch exactly what HE wants even though he's just going to flip through the channels.
I work two part time jobs, buy the groceries, do the dishes, make the bed, fill the water jugs, clean the cat box, give the cats their meds when they need it, take care of the laundry, cook dinner, gas up the car, and do many many other things.
He works one full time job and he does the actual paying of the bills with our money, he fills the humidifier, and he puts oil in the car. :D
Wow! Sounds like has a pretty sweet ride!

[Theregulator]

I stroke him alot just cos he likes it. He makes me laugh alot so its a fair trade. He is currently wearing a black padded bra over his eyes and saying 'help me' I think he is pretending to be the human fly caught in the web at the end of the original fly movie. :eyebrow: I like a man who retains his sense of humour when he's sorting the laundry out.

[mudpuppy]

I was thinking about this thread over the weekend and I realized that while I may do alot of things daily, chore type things, I don't really do anything special. Makes me feel like I'm being neglectful. I ought to ramp it up, especially since he brought me two bouquets of flowers on Friday night because I told him to go to happy hour with his friends.

[LadyPain]

But if there are two wives ... who's the real (grocery-totin', laundry-folding, bathroom-scrubbing, dinner-cooking, vacuum-pushing) wife? :eyebrow:

I think the chores would be divided much more equitably than they are with most couples that are heterosexual. At least, that is a dream of mine... I work my tail off bringing home the bacon and I'd love HIM to make me tea one morning instead of me making him coffee, which he insists upon in a timely manner.

[Gillie]

Funny - I thought about this one this weekend too, I think that becasue the things that he does are on such a LARGE scale, ie mowing the feilds, maintaining the farm lane, getting wood for the woodstove, and the things that I do are so small, laundry, cleaning, cooking, shopping that I don't appreciate him enough, but then he never brought me 2 bunches of flowers either :oo: I really think that it all evens out in the end. But I think that the "for special" things are like making creamed corn for dinner because I know that he likes it - even if I don't. :smile2:

[mudpuppy]

^ Aw, well he never usually gets me flowers. And of course the first thing I said was, "alright, what did you do?" Real gracious of me, don't you think?

[Desiree]

Let me try that again lol

here is his pic:

http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff207/lilacguitar1980/holidays054.jpg

Wow, Cola! He's a hottie!

[marew1]

:smile2: Go out to dinner on special occasions. Cook and bake things he likes. Surprise him with a gift he didn't expect but on his wish list. Tell him I love him every day. We'll be married 34 years in July.

I don't have a man right now. Since this is the Womans Thread , come on girls!!!! Give a single lady a shout out!! I don't want to go to bars, cause that's just not me. I am a single mother, so socializing (as an adult) comes few and far between. My thoughts are, it'll happen when it's supposed too. It's been long enough that when I see myself naked, I resemble Barbie. It's done disappeared!!!! Just kidding! So what do you say girls??

[tillyn]

My "Old Man" and me, have been together for a long time. 29 years, married 26 of those.
I try to listen to his gripes about work , i may not be able to help him but it gives him somewhere to vent. I also buy him his gadgets (when i can afford them.) He likes tools, and all new electronics . I did buy him a hardtop trailer, because he didn't like sleeping in a tent trailer anymore. (Neither did i really) I'll be paying for that treat for a while!

[SK'sGal]

we both pretty much share all the chores.

Nothing wrong with being single -- you're probably already too busy with your child(ren). You will find your Prince Charming when you're ready to look and in the mean time you will be collecting all your tips from us. BTW, if you're a reader, I find the most interesting people at book club meetings and those are usually just once a month...just saying...since I don't play anymore...:biggrin2:

I try to make my boyfriend really smile at least once a day, can't really bitch about him cause he does nothing wrong..... which does annoy me sometimes

Sorry if im boring the readers of this but feel better now i've let some of it out

My Dad has emphysema too. He smoked all that a man could until the choice
was obvious. One more smoke will be a death sentance. (wiping tears)
He is still a pleasure to visit and talk to. My Father-in-law...is a different story
more like yours. My sis-in-law has spent the last 10 years primarily waiting
hand and foot on him. My husband for the last 2. He's become more un
managable as time goes by. He started having strokes 12 years ago. My
hus. wanted Me to go sit with him (cook and clean) at the time my girls were
just starting school. One day I needed to leave him to pick up my girls
He had hidden my keys and didn't admit they were in his pocket until I
had given up looking, and not happily started calling people to get my kid's
from school. That was one of the milder things. I could no longer feed this
neverending self serving person on a regular basis. I visit occassionally
with hus. and sis-in-law. He drives people nuts and then whimpers when
nobody calls. The far away sib's rarely call him, and when they do they
are loaded with answers and suggest all of the thing We should do..
as though we hadn't tried!! I KNOW your pain!!!

When ever my man goes out of town I always put a picture of our pups in his suitcase. I also add a little note hidden away and he has fun trying to find it. On a day to day basis, I try to make him laugh as much as possible, but he does the same for me. Oh and every night he gets a back scratch, some nights are longer than others.

Got any Squeezable Bacon?

I have to agree with Kim. My husband does the shopping, cleans, does laundry (I won't let him do my dress clothes anymore) and cooks most meals. He also makes most of the money. Wow. I don't think I deserve him!

Hi girls!

I got your squeezable bacon right here.

When her man went on a all guys fishing trip she took a sexy photo, cut it up into puzzle pieces and hid each piece in the pockets of all his clothes and tackle box. When he finally found all the pieces and put them together the most important parts :wink2: were missing. Instead there was a white cut out saying "The best parts at home...see ya soon"

See, I wish I had the nerve to do that sort of thing. I'm sure the husband would like it, but I just can't see myself doing that - taking a sexy photo, I mean. I think I might be repressed.

[cunninghamair]

Just one question:

With a thread title like this " Women only "...what do you think how many of us men peeked at this thread ?

:biggrin2:

On that note, give em what they are looking for........

Pajama party! :rolleyes:

My DH used to share chores, but he's slacked off over the years--I spoil him. I do most of the chores, grocery shopping, cooking and bills. I leave him the bathrooms and litter pans to get even! But he's a sweetheart. A good cook, but leaves a mess when he's done.

I learned from the men I work with--many of them give up (or hide) their hobbies because their women don't "allow" them. Golf, motorcycles, flying lessons, shooting--I've hear it all and I was amazed--so I treat my DH like an adult--I don't deny/forbid him things he wants. He doesn't ask for much. He's always taken care of my needs first and is frugal.

Crazycrashink,

Thanks for the party!!! I'm paying for it now though! I just snuck out of the Man Cave and believe me, nothing is going on over there. Their all passed out and does that cave stink!! :barf:

My husband is always adjusting it when we are talking. Its very distracting because when I'm listening to him I will follow his hand movements thinking he will make a gesture that pertains to our discussion. Then I feel tricked, like he made me glance at the goods on purpose. Like he gets a secret kick out of making me look down.

I think they get itchy and sweaty. And, I mean, seriously, they're constantly shapeshifting. Can you imagine all that movement going on?

Crinkled up like a shrinky dink; stretched out baking in the sun like some rattlesnake; or sticking to the side of their upper thigh like some lost and forgotten gummi worm.

Do you remember that Kuato dude from Total Recall? That's what's going on in guy's pants. Little mute mini-Kuatos, moving around, trying to control everything, wanting you to touch them, hypnotizing you to "Open your mind." Yeah, like I'd fall for that one.:glare:

Its like they never quite get over the miraculous wonderment of actually having one.

My mom gave me these blue velvet lounge pants for Christmas. Well they're way to big so the husband wears them. He's always coming over to me saying "these pants are so soft - feel them, right here, just rub the fabric, its so soft you won't believe it." :glare:

I don't have a man right now. Since this is the Womans Thread , come on girls!!!! Give a single lady a shout out!! I don't want to go to bars, cause that's just not me. I am a single mother, so socializing (as an adult) comes few and far between. My thoughts are, it'll happen when it's supposed too. It's been long enough that when I see myself naked, I resemble Barbie. It's done disappeared!!!! Just kidding! So what do you say girls??

SHOUT! from one single girl/mom to another:love:

I never adjust in public, if it's an emergency, it doesn't take long to hide a bit. I just don't think its a great way to go.

Hopefully that restores a bit of faith out there.

As far as showing it to her, my honey likes to do it A LOT so sometimes, if I'm sans cloths, it's best to run anyway. :laugh:

Pajama party, you say? Define "pajamas"....:oops:

[sknut70]

Hey chickiees!

I am an ultra optimist, and my DH is the uber pessimist. it drives me crazy! He is constantly complaining about everything and I try to keep upbeat no matter what, he tells me I dont see the seriousness in anything. I say enjoy life, find solutions instead of complaining about problems.

and housework?! I do it ALL ugh. I gave up trying to getting anyone else to do it. My house is now messy most of the time unless I clean it. I wait patiently for my child to graduate school, then extra money will hire cleaning lady!! yes... yes.. cant wait.

[pandora]

Why does our cave stink? (rj are you and your friend still in here?)
Maybe they are constantly adjusting themselves because it's sweaty, or uncomfortable. Except for elevelyns man. That's so funny! Your not penismatized but the site of it??

..........................................:tongue: .............................................

[arista]

I had to leave early yesterday...good discussion regarding the adjustment..You just don't see women adjusting their boobs normally like that?

[poisonbat]

I have to jump into this conversation, I can relate so much to all you are talking about, oh and Ahcmed quit that farting huh? It is amazing to me that small changes in my appearance make such a huge difference to my husband. I changed my hair color from blonde to red and he could not get enough of me. I have been going to the gym and have lost 17lbs, he looks at me as if I am a different woman. Not that I am complaining, he has shone me so much more attention lately sometimes I think he is a different person. :eyebrow: I think it is a combination of me feeling better about myself, and him being attracted to me like he was when we first married. But I tell ya, he also shows that jealousy streak when other men look at me. :biggrin2::bat:

[rjt65]

1) Achmed snuck walter in here LAdies (only true achmed lovers will know about Walter--even achmed fears his farts!)

2) Adjusting is like KA- it is what it is--whats the issue? no different than fixing your hair or shaking a kink out of your leg or arm...

3) I see mucho boob-bra adjustmnets all day in public.... :eek2: you don't hear me complainen do ya Luccccyyyyyy........????????

Adjustment in progress achmed exits back to man cave--stage right!:biggrin2:

Okay-Let's delve into another great topic...concerning men. Why is it okay for a man to have his belly hang over his gut and he still thinks he is hot, but if a woman gains a few pounds she is not.
Thanks Arista- for answering these "weighty" topics LOL

[RandomMan]

ok....something for you ladies to think about. Women adjust boobs all of the time. Well, women with boobs...hahaha. I love watching my wife pushing them up, tucking them bad boys in...its entertaining to me but she hates. They drive her crazy. Now imagine putting those suckers between your legs. It is a pain for guys as well...rarely is there any enjoyment in adjusting. It is all about comfort. If there is a pinch...gotta adjust. If they are sticking...gotta adjust. If they are smooshed...gotta adjust. And believe it or not most of this adjusting is done hands free...its a skill we have to master. So if your man or any other man is seen adjusting with the use of his hands...give the guy a break, it a serious situation in which the hands-free method is not fixing the problem. My job is done here...R-man Out!!!!!!

[Todash]

Thank you for getting us together on 'Wearing big balls 101" ;)
I really don't have the issue of big boobs either ... mine are rather comfortable ... I would say that a feminine issue yet to be talked about may as well come forth with in the hands of a ... hummm mmm mmm lady.

Crack!!! anything riding up in is damned uncomfortable ... & sometimes the more wigglin' you do.. the tighter the fit. So, I am a public crack remover ... be damned you precious perception ... I'm all about my crack's comfort.

[Autumnlyn]

Men may adjust, but nothing compares to a womans wedgie. Back, front and side...ever been out in public and your underwear just go for a cruise? Other than the "plie" what can you do? At least men can just reach down and move their junk around in public and all we do is roll our eyes and look away (unless there is something really interesting going on :) ). Could you imagine the look on peoples faces if a woman just reached down her pants and picked a wedgie out? :::shudder:::

[Zgirlie]

I had to leave early yesterday...good discussion regarding the adjustment..You just don't see women adjusting their boobs normally like that?

*sigh* If I had boobs to adjust, I would probably be shamelessly doing so right in public. It would be a novelty for sure.

And I was wondering if it was in bad taste to tell one's boss to please stop scratching his package right there on the production floor :barf:....anyone?

[Dana Jean]

Here are my thoughts on thongs, (originally discussed in the Let Bret Michaels find Love thread.)

Never wear thongs. You don't have anything to catch the poop if you sh@* yourself. A thong just slices it in half like a fish line does with a block of clay.


And, an additional note: I have spent a lifetime digging underwear out of my crack. Why would I purposely put it up there? BEsides, when you have roadkill SharPei ass cheeks, thongs aren't such a flattering fashion choice.

I think that sometimes men forget that there is anyone around with the whole itching thing...Crabs maybe??

[poisonbat]

Why is it that men can drop their underwear in front of the laundry hamper, but not inside? :eyebrow::bat:

[Speedy2]

I am guessing that some men are, as I think has been said before, just making sure that it is still there. Or maybe they just like to touch it? Could be? As for the underwear issue, I am an advid thong wearer, just can't stand a panty line and can't be without my unmentionables. :eek2:

[rjt65]

when u say Peoiple u mean Woman right? ;-)

Cause if a woman stopped and was doing adjustments to her thong or panties ... most men would cause traffic jams watching....:eek2::eek2::eek2:

Some women swear thongs are the most comfortable underwear ever. Some women hate them. Maybe it has to do with your shape. I totally hate them. I've tried them before, and it's like having the worst wedgie ever with no way to remove it.

[Anton177]

We are asserting ourselves. It shows the male dominance, of course...

Would you ladies really have it any other way?

I've worn women's underwear before. Yeah, I said it! I'll tell you the story if anyone's curious :eyebrow:.

Forgot about the panty lines. Good case for the thong. Of course, ones choice in fouindation garments it totally personal. I like the "boy shorts", the cross between granny panties and bikini briefs. I don't usually worry about foundation garment lines because I usually wear tops that cover my hind parts. I like my clothing to be kind of flowy and roomy. I feel like I'm in a sausage casing if I wear anything tight.

OOOh, panty talk!!
I will not go commando. I like thongs but they irritate a scar I have back there, so I only wear em on special occasions...
Speedy, I hate VPL too...just ruins the look.

As for men and their package, I believe its a security thing issue as well as for adjustment reasons. And I really do hear that. Who wants to walk around with a skin slinky between their thighs?? :eek2:

Ladies, I have a question for you regarding hair color. Do you dye your hair? Consider the following by B. Shakespeare:

"Rich she shall be, that’s certain; wise, or I’ll none; virtuous, or I’ll never cheapen her; fair, or I’ll never look on her; mild, or come not near me; noble, or not I for an angel; of good discourse, an excellent musician, and her hair shall be of what color it please God"

So, I've never dyed my hair, was intending to go natural, but here I am at age 41 and my hair is getting more and more dull. I feel like I need a boost, but I don't want to damage or dry out my hair. What do you think?

I used to color mine but as I got more gray I stopped. It was just too much work and money! I have A LOT of gray hair and it makes me look older than I am (I'm 41 too.:biggrin2:) but I like it because it's kind of silvery.

I think if you want to color your hair you should - as long as you use a quality product it shouldn't damage your hair.

"Rich she shall be, that’s certain; wise, or I’ll none; virtuous, or I’ll never cheapen her; fair, or I’ll never look on her; mild, or come not near me; noble, or not I for an angel; of good discourse, an excellent musician, and her hair shall be of what color it please God"

So, I've never dyed my hair, was intending to go natural, but here I am at age 41 and my hair is getting more and more dull. I feel like I need a boost, but I don't want to damage or dry out my hair. What do you think? You could try a henna. It's like putting mud on your hair for an hour, but the results are usually worth it :)

[Cerralin]

I used to color mine but as I got more gray I stopped. It was just too much work and money! I have A LOT of gray hair and it makes me look older than I am (I'm 41 too.:biggrin2:) but I like it because it's kind of silvery.

I think if you want to color your hair you should - as long as you use a quality product it shouldn't damage your hair.

Use a product that has no ammonia in it and comes with a great sachet of moisturising conditioner in. And first of all I would go with a non permanent colour just in case you don't like it!

I would have suggested Nice and Easy by Clairol as here in the UK it comes in permanent and non-permanent, but looking at the US site it doesn't :(

Use this link (http://www.clairol.com/index.jsp) do the little quiz about what you want :)

Hope it helps?
[Double Post]
We are asserting ourselves. It shows the male dominance, of course...

Would you ladies really have it any other way?

I've worn women's underwear before. Yeah, I said it! I'll tell you the story if anyone's curious :eyebrow:.

And why hasn't anyone asked Anton to elaborate on this story??? :oh:

You could also try getting some foil highlights. That way you wouldn't be doing a full coloring but it would add some contrasts.

[BlueCeleste]

Okay-Let's delve into another great topic...concerning men. Why is it okay for a man to have his belly hang over his gut and he still thinks he is hot, but if a woman gains a few pounds she is not.
Thanks Arista- for answering these "weighty" topics LOL

Because woman are the more forgiving sex, but I hate to generalize, there are woman who won't find man with a gut attractive or shall we say woman who refuse to have sex with a man that is not well endowed...so it goes both ways. It's human nature to make quick judgement base on someone's appearance...I find it to be pity. Good people come in all shape and sizes...

[nancy cosgrove]

Been colouring my hair for 40-odd years now.Every month now.A couple of years istarted to get curious as to to the actual colour OF my hair,so I let it go for about 6 months.(Very miserable time).My hair was a horrible mixture of white edging,grey splotches,white roots, black streaks.I ran back to the chemicals when a friend asked me if a large bird had left a message on my head:sad:Now my hair is it's "natural"black-blue-purple" hue

[mudpuppy]

You could also try getting some foil highlights. That way you wouldn't be doing a full coloring but it would add some contrasts.

I wonder if you can do a foil process where you add color on, instead of lightening. I will have to ask. I hear that adding color doesn't damage your hair as much as lightening it does.

You could try a henna. It's like putting mud on your hair for an hour, but the results are usually worth it :)

Right, I tried a marigold henna a few weeks ago and nothing happened, zilch! I got my haircut this weekend and asked my hairdresser if they would consider doing my henna there and he said "no way!". They think henna is too unpredicatable.

My hair is sort of wavy and course, this is why I'm so worried about making it even more course. Plus, currently I'm sporting a George Washington hair-cut, not the most glamorous. So, as I head into year 42, sporting the GW bob, going greyer and greyer, yes indeed, I need to make a change. When I was in the full bloom of youth my hair was a sight to behold: long, wavy, reddish brown. Man, when the blush is off the rose its freaking OFF.

They also have that gloss thing, it coats the hair strands and makes it unbelievable silky and shiny. I'm thinking maybe I'll try that first, like a baby step.

[rjt65]

hair coloring blah pewwy

THONG sighting! So Achmed into local starbux ---25 + gal bending over to do something ---thong!!! low rise pants and thongs are a good match!:biggrin2:


Also whist there a boob adjustment was also sighted a one handed adjustment for one ...... Achmed ensured no fixing took place on his own self--- at least in public!:glare:

SO woman adjustments 1.... men 0 today--- and a thong sighting...

[LadyPain]

OOOh, panty talk!!
I will not go commando. I like thongs but they irritate a scar I have back there, so I only wear em on special occasions...
Speedy, I hate VPL too...just ruins the look.

As for men and their package, I believe its a security thing issue as well as for adjustment reasons. And I really do hear that. Who wants to walk around with a skin slinky between their thighs?? :eek2:

:laugh:

A slinky? Aren't you being rather magnanimous with THAT particular comment?


As for me, I do occasionally wear a thong or go commando, but for the most part, I like really low-riding hipster bikini panties. Commando is the most comfortable, of course.

[Zgirlie]

Here are my thoughts on thongs, (originally discussed in the Let Bret Michaels find Love thread.)

Never wear thongs. You don't have anything to catch the poop if you sh@* yourself. A thong just slices it in half like a fish line does with a block of clay.


And, an additional note: I have spent a lifetime digging underwear out of my crack. Why would I purposely put it up there? BEsides, when you have roadkill SharPei ass cheeks, thongs aren't such a flattering fashion choice.

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[Anton177]

And why hasn't anyone asked Anton to elaborate on this story??? :oh:

I guess it's just gonna be lost with the sands of time... at least now the only image you ladies will have of me will be at least wearing men's underwear. :oh:

Ladies, I have a question for you regarding hair color. Do you dye your hair? Consider the following by B. Shakespeare:

"Rich she shall be, that’s certain; wise, or I’ll none; virtuous, or I’ll never cheapen her; fair, or I’ll never look on her; mild, or come not near me; noble, or not I for an angel; of good discourse, an excellent musician, and her hair shall be of what color it please God"

So, I've never dyed my hair, was intending to go natural, but here I am at age 41 and my hair is getting more and more dull. I feel like I need a boost, but I don't want to damage or dry out my hair. What do you think?
Even Shakespeare didn't know everything, I guess.

You might want to start with semi-permanent color to see if you like it. Those work best close to your natural shade. Permanent hair color adds body because it roughs up the shaft, which for me is nice (I have lots of hair, but it's fine). Many women color their hair monthly (not me, I'm too laid back about personal beauty routines) with good results. Here are a few tips.

Never go dark and then try to go blond a month later; at the least, consult your stylist. It's hard to pull out some dark dyes.

Blond can be hard to get "right" from a box. Not impossible, but it may take a few tries.

Red can be fun, but it tends to fade very quickly. Special color-saving shampoos and conditioner help, as does not washing it every day.

Relax. It's just hair; it'll grow out.

[arista]

Some great discussions ladies..I believe that highlighting your hair makes you feel younger and less damaging. VPL EWWW..Just say no the VPL lines.

[mudpuppy]

I ran back to the chemicals when a friend asked me if a large bird had left a message on my head:sad:

:rofl:

[TBlack]

Thanks TBlack - I was wondering why those were so uncomfortable to wear? :oops:
You're supposed to unfold em first
My wife asked me to unload the dryer...

[Mr. Jingles]

I gave my fiancee a gift a few years ago, a hand-hled dremmel tool for engraving on wood, doing detailing, etc. He practiced by making a little sign that says "I Love You". Since then, this sign has ende up in my freezer, my undies drawer, my purse, our car, his shoes, inside cereal boxes, and so on....it's a cute way to let him know that I am thinkin of him when he least expects it. We call it the "I Love You Game".
Feel free to pirate :)

[Kim L.]

Love my highlights--I get them done at a salon because I fear blinding myself with the chemicals.

[Kim L.]

.............TBlack........did you say you toss salad ?

:rofl::rofl:

[Zgirlie]

I am guessing that some men are, as I think has been said before, just making sure that it is still there. Or maybe they just like to touch it? Could be? As for the underwear issue, I am an advid thong wearer, just can't stand a panty line and can't be without my unmentionables. :eek2:

Yes, or maybe their mothers gave them a complex at a young age, like I did to my youngest. I feel horrible about it, I really do! What happened was he went through a phase where he would NOT stop playing with the kibbles and bits, even in public. It was embarrassing! One day he walked in on me while I was peeing and said, "Mommy! What happened to your weiner?" I could not stop the words, they just took on a life of their own. What I said was this:

"I played with it too much and it fell off."

I have been saving for therapy ever since.

I wish I could wear a fragrance. I really like them on other people, but I can't seem to find anything that suits me. I wish they would make a female version of Bay Rum, that mens stuff.

[Speedy2]

I KNOW, I KNOW!!!! Thats how you get the frontal wedgie out!!!!!!!!

Just say no to camel toe. Sorry, but it needed to be said. It ranks right up there, maybe even higher because it is not as frequent as VPL. Nastier though.

[Speedy2]

I have three fragrances that I frequent...depending on my mood. I wear either Beautiful or Beyond Paradise by Estee Lauder or Burberry by Burberry.

[Kim L.]

"Brit" by Burberry.

[Speedy2]

"Brit" by Burberry.
Now is that a floral scent? For some reason if the fragrance isn't a little strong, or not quite so floral, my body chemistry will wipe it out.

Fruity or Musky by body chemistry just loves though. Beautiful is borderline for me, it doesn't stay as long as others.

[arista]

I kind of like the Bath and body works body wash and then use the same body spray. It makes for delightful aroma therapies. Vanilla is always a favorite.

[Jax]

Just say no to camel toe. Sorry, but it needed to be said.

:rofl:No doubt. I don't understand how some women can walk out of the house looking like that. It is sad that it needs to be said.

[poisonbat]

Only perfumes I can really wear is Chloe and Vanilla Fields. Yeah, nothing fancy but I so rarely ever wear them they last a long time.:bat:

No, it's more spicy and has pretty good staying power, at least on me (thought I don't drench myself in it :biggrin2:). Don't care much for floral scents, they all end up smelling like baby powder.

[sueb84]

I used to love Cher's perfume and my husband said it was amzing on me whne I wore it. Sadly I cannot find it any longer, and a while back a young woman was wearing Hilfiger and it reminded me of the Cher fragrance. On me it just smelled awful :sad: So I am
sticking with Issey Miyake L'eau D'Issey. Expensive, so I only use it on special occasions. The rest of the time, I stick with the body fragrances. One thing that bothers me is women who use too much scent. I have been stuck in enclosed spaces with a number of them over the years, so now I use it only when going out.

[Zgirlie]

Camel toe....<shudder> I mean, doesn't that frigging HURT? It chaps my chalupa to even think about it! Sometimes I wonder if they have a little vacuum action going on there or something. Too many kegels during the day? WTF???? There are women at work who walk in like that, and it makes me very grateful that we all wear ESD smocks so I don't have to see that all day.

On a less cringeworthy note, I absolutely LOVE DKNY Be Delicious. It's kind of an citrusy-apple sort of scent.

[mudpuppy]

Just say no to camel toe. Sorry, but it needed to be said. It ranks right up there, maybe even higher because it is not as frequent as VPL. Nastier though.

Around here we say "she works for channel 11".

[Dana Jean]

I think they get itchy and sweaty. And, I mean, seriously, they're constantly shapeshifting. Can you imagine all that movement going on?

Crinkled up like a shrinky dink; stretched out baking in the sun like some rattlesnake; or sticking to the side of their upper thigh like some lost and forgotten gummi worm.

Do you remember that Kuato dude from Total Recall? That's what's going on in guy's pants. Little mute mini-Kuatos, moving around, trying to control everything, wanting you to touch them, hypnotizing you to "Open your mind." Yeah, like I'd fall for that one.:glare:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xO1kKemcwYk&feature=related

Did anyone see the Southpark last night? It was called Asspen and there is a scene where a girl has Kuato boobs. Oh man, I laughed!

Okay-not wanting women cave to fall off the face of board..Let's talk about passing gas..everyone does it..any embarassing moments?

My birthday is coming in July and I'll be 43!!! I'm so excited! I just love getting older.
One of our close friends just came for a visit and it had been years since we've seen her. She was talking about how we should start using stuff to prevent wrinkles and of course I use moisterizer but she was talking about the heavy duty stuff I guess.
Listen....I've earned every wrinkle I've got. I don't think that I should look 20, and I like being older. To be completely honest, I feel sexy as hell!! **Tooting my own horn** How do you all feel about getting older? Panthers unite!!

[Jax]

The perfumes that I wear are Cool Water by Davidoff, Tommy Girl, and Intimately Beckham.
Cool Water is my favorite.

[Dana Jean]

What the hell are you talking about?:oo::biggrin2: Women do NOT pass gas. Don't admit to it, don't claim it. We are above such bodily functions. We transcend gas.

[mudpuppy]

Okay-not wanting women cave to fall off the face of board..Let's talk about passing gas..everyone does it..any embarassing moments?

Hmm, embarassing moments... Nothing really embarassing, I think. I mean, if gas should require release whilst I'm here at my desk I can always sink it into my seat cushion, thereby silencing it. Also I am equiped with a desk fan which I use to spirit away the bouquet.

I should be embarassed by the fact that almost all of my previous boyfriends and my husband included consider me to be a master blaster (aka. "Farta"), really without equal. I think I get it from my Dad. He's was always a morning trumpeter and I could hear him giggling to himself when he blasted a particularly thunderous or melodic one. Mine can be pretty bombastic on the sonic scale. What can I say? I am neither proud or ashamed of this feature!

One observation: I have noticed that volume and scent are inversly proportional.

[TBlack]

Ok... so I shot this old girlfriend after a date to Taco-Bell... she dint `splode or nuthin' but the propane tank beside her did & took out the Long John Silver's... I think Carnation Instant Bitch was the catalyst needed for ignition!

Hey, I'll be 42 in July! I don't feel like I'm getting older, just better. I'm not getting any wrinkles yet, just a few laugh lines at my eyes. My hair is turning a little bit grey, but right now, it kinda looks like my hair is highlighted. Over all, I feel pretty good about getting older---it sure beats the alternative :biggrin2:

Go July Babies! I'll be 42 in July.

I don't really love many of the things associated with growing older, things like:
1. whiskers
2. gray hair
3. decreased metabolism

But there is one thing I do enjoy:
1. a more mellow attitude and outlook ( see Plato's Republic, Cephalus I think who said that youth is like being chained to a madman.)

[arista]

I am 42 this year and have to admit that I feel pretty good for my age. I try to take care of myself and exercise. Panthers unite!!

I will be 36 in May. I still feel young...(well, except for all the bills, kids & responsibility) but that comes with age, too, right:)

[Kim L.]

I will be 36 in May. I still feel young...(well, except for all the bills, kids & responsibility) but that comes with age, too, right:)

That's because you ARE young! I wish I had the energy at 35 or 36 that I do at 50. Of course, I'll probably be saying "I wish I was as energetic at 65 as I was at 50" LOL

[MrsSmeej]

:eek2: Sadly, I've been lazy my whole life... Age hasn't seemed to matter a bit.

[Roseasharn]

Hey, I can't wait to be a cougar! I'm 27 and I have a husband and a 2 year old, but give me about 20 years, let the kid grow up without me embarassing her too bad and then watch out.
My mom is 44 and she's frickin gorgeous. I honestly think she looks better now than she did when she was in her early 20s. If I look as much like her as people say, I'm set. I've never been afraid of getting older, I'm just afraid of getting unhealthy.
I don't wear purfume, but I love scented lotions. Right now I'm switching between love spell and warm vanilla sugar.

[poisonbat]

I will be 41 in September. Sure, the gray hairs are coming in, but I color them. I have put on weight, but am now in the process of taking it off. But the best thing about getting older, my kids are grown and I can now focus on my love affair with my husband. :love: Rediscovering him has been such a precious gift. I am blessed. :bat:

[Spideyman]

That's because you ARE young! I wish I had the energy at 35 or 36 that I do at 50. Of course, I'll probably be saying "I wish I was as energetic at 65 as I was at 50" LOL


65 in September- just remember Kim, think young and you'll be young. Might take a little longer to get things done, but they get done. And with age comes the excuse: I'm tired and need to sit, rest and read my SK book for awhile!! Enjoy life to the fullest- Age is something that doesn't matter, unless you are a cheese.

[Dana Jean]

May I take a moment of your time to inject a note of seriousness? I promise I'll try not to preach.

Ladies, I would like very much for you to change your hygiene products to organic, natural items. Now, just because a product has slapped some "Green" label on their product, does not mean it is healthy for you. Please, look at ingredients. Chances are, if you cannot read the names without difficulty, much less know what these ingredients really are and what they do, then it's probably bad for you.

The number one item I would like you to change is your deodorant. Think about this. We have sweat glands--little openings--in our armpits. Then, on top of that, we shave hair and leave more little hair follicle openings in an area thick with lymph nodes that are directly connected to our breast tissue. No wonder there is an increase in breast cancer. We are putting toxic chemicals directly into an area, with larger openings than the rest of our skin, that helps move that toxicity directly to delicate and susceptible tissue.

Yes, organics can cost a little more, but if you are vigilant about being wasteful, you either pay now or pay later. I think the benefits of a longer, healthier life with my family outweighs those extra pennies. And yes, just because you change to this stuff does not guarantee that you can't get cancers and other aggressive diseases, but, maybe by changing, your body will be healthier and thus be able to fight off life threatening things more efficiently.

And I do realize how we all sometimes find a product that really works for us. We like the coverage and protection, we like the fragrance, we like the cost--whatever. It did take my pits about a month to acclimate to my new deodorant. They were so used to this bombardment of extra chemicals, it was like weaning this area off of something bad for me. While switching, I would just make sure I had my deodorant with me if I needed some extra protection. After about a month, I no longer had to do that. And, just because one organic deodorant might not work, there are other brands to try. Don't give up too quickly.

The second item I would like you to switch is your tampons. If you use these items, go for the organic tampons that don't include all those chemicals. When there is a warning about Toxic Shock Syndrome, (which I actually know someone who had this) then we need to quit using that product. I mean, purposely put toxins up your cooch?

I would also recommend changing shampoos and lotions and toothpastes and all these things that go in or are soaked up by your body. Again, they can be expensive, but if you use coupons or find sales which they periodically run, you can make it work within your budget. And just maybe you might save money from not being sick from various things that attack your immune system. I will speak for my family only, but, we had a tremendous amount of waste going with all sorts of items and I have become more watchful of this so I can afford healthier products.

Also ladies, if you have young girls/women in your home, starting them off early on truly safe and organic, healthy products now will benefit them for the rest of their lives.

Sorry for the long rant. I just want you to be healthy!

So Pandora....started in the man cave so back atcha gals: What makes a REAL Woman?

You sneaky sucker!!!! That's what makes a man!!! Throwing a question right back at me and doesn't answer the first one!!! Gotcha!


A: I think a real woman has the ability to have fun, take care of business, know she is #1 even if her man's eye is appreciating a beauty walking by, can whip out an awesome dinner/snack and hid with her UGG Boots, on naked behind the door ready to attack with a "welcome home!" ( oh yeah, and be supportive and communicate, blah, blah, blah, etc.)

65 in September- just remember Kim, think young and you'll be young. Might take a little longer to get things done, but they get done. And with age comes the excuse: I'm tired and need to sit, rest and read my SK book for awhile!! Enjoy life to the fullest- Age is something that doesn't matter, unless you are a cheese.

Or wine! Great advice as always, Spidey.

Rich, IMO, a Real Woman is someone who stands up for herself and those she loves, takes care of what needs to be taken care of, keeps an open heart and a clear head. She knows her worth isn't determined by how good she looks, but likes to look good anyway.

And keeps cough drops in her purse in case somebody needs one.

In our house we try to go organic as best we can with food, but I never thought about hygiene products. I will now make an effort to look at labels and buy organic :)

Got this in an Email.

Never Argue with a Woman

One morning, the husband returns the boat to their lakeside
cottage after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap.
Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out.
She motors out a short distance, anchors, puts her feet up,
And begins to read her book..

The peace and solitude are magnificent.

Along comes a Fish and Game Warden in his boat.
He pulls upalongside the woman and says, 'Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?'

'Reading a book,' she replies, (thinking, 'Isn't that obvious?')

'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her.

'I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading.'

'Yes, but I see you have all the equipment.
For all I know you could start at any moment.
I'll have to take you in and write you up.'

'If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault,' says the woman.

'But I haven't even touched you,' says the Game Warden.

'That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment.'

'Have a nice day ma'am,' and he left.

MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.

My defination of a real woman-A real woman is one who accepts aging gracefully, but knows enough to do those things that are healthy. That includes emotionally and physcially. A real woman knows that in order to take care of someone else, have to take care of self first to be a good caregiver. A real woman has priorities in regards to work and family.

Don't forget that a real woman also needs to be unafraid of her own sexuality, no matter what she finds.

[Tery]

A real woman knows how to read and think and can do whatever research she needs to do. A real woman is well-read and well-versed.

IT seems the women's only thread was falling off the board..I love sandals and now that warmer weather is finally getting here..get to show the piggies. Ladies thoughts on sandals..

[Todash]

I like sandals, but I don't have the kind of feet that look good in delicate strappy sandals. I end up wearing fisherman's sandals and the like.

Just bought a great pair of closed-toe huraches. Don't like to show the piggies but love the cool airy feeling.

My thought on Sandals...GET A PEDICURE!!! or this could be you...http://media.photobucket.com/image/gross%20feet/LostBoy8282/weird/NastyFeet.gif

I love to go barefoot on grassy surfaces...What a feeling!

[saradobie]

During the work day, I'll take a moment to send him the funniest, silliest email I can. It can be about anything...my bad morning hair, the old man driver who delayed me ten minutes on the way into the office, or the way the office puppies (literally, we can bring our dogs to work) say HELLO SARA! in the morning. I've sent funny pics, too! (I'm a fan of monkeys in suits :)) Anything to make him laugh upon opening his office email. Everyone likes to LAUGH!!

[Cerralin]

Its not really warm enough to wear sandals here, although you would think it was July in the Mediterranean they way some girls dress as soon as the sun comes out :)

[Crystalized]

I love sandals ... love bare feet ... & love shoes that expose the toes.
I am at heart a foot person so, I take very good care of mine & love exposing them as much as possible.
My favorite ... being barefoot on the beach ... when the sand isn't TOO HOT & contaminated with beach parties past ... it's soooo goooooood.

I couldn't agree more! Nothing shows a person's age more than nasty, cracked, dirty, hairy toed, werewolf toenail, corn and bunioned feet. My feet are my best feature. Everything else looks like hell, but dammit! I have great feet! My feet are soft and tanned and polished and cute. Keep those nasty a** feet covered if you aren't going to maintain them.:biggrin2:

Weren't eating Fritos were you, Ms. Mod?

[Moderator]

Nope, but I think it's going to be a long time before I can eat Fritos again. :eek2:

[Carri]

OMG. This reminds me of what I recently dubbed the grossest fiction passage I've ever read...and, no, it wasn't even from a Stephen King story...

Has anyone read Peter and the Secret of Rundoon by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson?...know what scene I'm talking about?
