The sacrifices made in the name of a high threadcount are all too real.

Did you get bored during the Greenland Norse part? My, how he droned on there. I promise you it got much better once he got through with that. If need be, skip to the end of that section and start again. Right after the shiny glossy pictures.

Or the Kate Winslet ass-trimming on the cover of Vogue or whatever.

That being said, I kinda hope that this doesn't devolve into the usual "fat people should be shot" thread that we seem to create here every so often.

Remember, I am dating someone who is hairy, chubby and poor. I was not trying to be fattist.

No more sex dreams either! Yay for you!

Define "chubby." And "hairy."

You mean before and after they airbrushed out her penis?

I'd avoid trying to be too funny -- a brief and bland witticism along the lines of "if you had told his law school classmates that a chick like Muffy would even give Skip the time of day, much less agree to spend the rest of her life with him, they would have laughed you out of the room" is about as far as you should go in terms of humor.

Don't be too maudlin (a danger for me while I am drunk), but throw something romantic and sweet in there -- maybe something like "I see Skip and Muffy together, and I know how happy they are to have found each other. And, knowing them, I know how happy they both are to have us here to see them officially become a couple, and to celebrate their vows with them."

No hints (much less actual comments) about the hot sex they had in the limo/will have in the coat room in 5 minutes/joining the Mile High Club/etc.

And keep it short.

"Curvy," which was the main replacement for "full figured," is going the same way, thanks in no small part to "Real Women Have Curves," a great movie but one in which the women didn't so much have curves as sphericalness. "Womanly" is up next.

"Curves" is one of those creepy words thhats supposed to somehow empower the person bearing the curves.

I never understood society's attempt to make people feel better, which is what that flick, and things like it, attempt. So you're fat. Every pot has a lid. You'll find somebody. There's no need to go running around saying "I'm what a REAL woman is." Because thats not true. Real people come in all sorts of sizes. Those "feel good about yourself" campaigns dumb people down. Why can't I claim to be hot as Brad Pitt? Because I'm not. And I won't be, ever. And saying something silly, like "I'm a real man and Pitt's a Ken Doll" is just absurd.

He's fucked Angelina. He's more a man than I can ever, ever be.

And here I was gonna suggest a riff on the Aristocrats joke featuring Coltrane and Sequels, I mean Skip and Muffy.

I think she had pants on in the photo spread, but yes.

Where is bilmore, anyway?

Oh, you're taking me back waaaay into history. But yes, it feels good. then you wake up and say "Fuuuuuuuck. I gotta clean this shit."

I used to sleep naked. Now its boxers. Sometimes its naked. But I tend to slepp above the covers a lot, and I keep the A/C cranked, so sleeping naked is tough in the Summer. Winter I sleep naked a lot.

No. No. No. I never, ever, sleep in just a t shirt. Yeccch.
