Re: Online Dating
I never took online dating seriously.
I used to tell my prospective love interests that wanted to cyber with me that I had an ashy club foot that needed constant applications of Lubiderm lotion. And I'd make them do all sorts of weird stuff.
Then one time, I got annoyed with this one guy that I was chatting with, went into his profile and got enough personal info about him that I was able to convince him that I was actually his girlfriend pretending to be someone else. It got ugly and he had to run home to me (his girlfriend) before I got my brother to come over and kick his ass and throw all his crap out the window.
This was a long time ago. I'm much more balanced online now (when I'm not talking about gray pubes, I guess).
Aw man - looks like I cleared the room with my gray pubes.
Mr. Insom always says that I always have to take things too far, and sure enough, I did it again.
But before I go, I'd just like to report the results of my internet research:
"Always remember though that greying all over the body from the top of your head to the tips of your toes is genetically determined. However, because you pubic hair is at least a decade and a bit younger than the hair on your head it should take it longer to grey. Also because of the fact that it is a different type of hair increases your chances of the grey to wait or to not show up at all. "
So there you go. The big dogs probably have gray-free pubes.
i am so glad i logged in for this.
i dabbled in some AOL chat rooms back in the day. in fact, it was a tryst with a dude who flew out from back east to meet me that helped bring me and the hub together. heh.
Back in the day (like 1994-1996) I used to MUD - which is basically like Everquest but it was completely text based. It was very popular amongst boys/men and there were barely any women that played. I met a bunch of guys that created their own MUD and were students at NJIT, which was right by my house. I ended up dating one for a while - actually he had another serious girlfriend so I was the "affair" girlfriend.
And then before that I had a very serious boyfriend who, believe it or not, I met online but USED to go to the same school as me when we were younger. My mother let me fly out to Ohio to go his prom when I was 16! What was she thinking.
I would. He's cute.
When I was in 6th grade I'd go into AOL chatrooms when my friends were over and tell guys all this stuff then say you perve I'm only 11 what's wrong with you.
If I have kids I'm not letting them use the internet until they're 21.
Well this is fascinating.
You know, armpit hair usually comes in right around the time of pubes. SInce the shirt usually comes off before the pants, that's probably a good way to predict what's in store for you. If you are totally anti gray pubes, you could always quit the make out session before you get to third base. Then lose his number.
I agree, cute.
That Kenny G photo is like an avatar for Kore's libido. Love it.
And I'll weigh in on graying. Found my first gray head hair at 21. Turned 30 this year, and can still count a lack of gray pubes in my "pro" column. Sounds like next year should be fun, though. Can't wait.
I would probably join online dating sites. I use to chat on AOL years ago and met a few guys, but only met one in person. We went on a double date with one of my good friends and the friend he brought was a fail... he had all gold teeth and I seriously believe he had a "Jeri Curl". He asked her if he could see her "coochie" to see what he would be working with...
That was the worst date ever... for her... my guy was super cute!
MP - you're brother is totally cute + Funny = Super Cute
i met my Dh online.
many of my friends have met their spouse online.
OK - I'll play. Beginning of the great ole Internet - I was 14. It was like, pre-real internet browsers. There was some chat site, with avatars, little rooms to chat in, and Atari level graphics. I went on, and ended up chatting to three guys, two for over a year. One in Finland - I used to talk to him on the phone. Must have been late-20s to early 30s. One married man in Texas. Surprisingly, they never really tried anything sexual. I'm lucky they didn't show up to the house and abduct me.
I also had a many hour long conversation with a guy who at the end, swore he was David Hasselhoff, then logged off.
I am so happy my twirlfriends pointed me to this post.
KennyG 4 EVA!
Pretty much this.
For the record - I don't mind gray pubes. It's part of my sugar daddy package.
In fact, that's going to be my online dating profile name -> luvsgraypubes
I'm guessing it would all look the same in the dark.
/dead
I forgot about people asking to cyber in chat rooms. Does that still happen?
AOL chatrooms were the best.
*If the pubes ain't gray, the dude don't pay.* A motto to live by.
Could you imagine being you-know-who's SIL though? I'd be intimidatedasshit.
ohholeyfukk.
Insomniac nods wisely.
