If she started out as a non-prole, married a prole, and is entertaining his prole friends then she might be seen as pretentious and he might be seen as uppidity.

Re: "uppity," I always thought this was partly racial and not just class-oriented. Perhaps uppidity is a cleansed version of uppity.

I went topublic schools and a State U. I'm lucky to have been accepted to law school; to be able to spell perfectly would be too much for me to ask. But you sure win this argument. Congratulations, you caught me on a spelling error- you should be real fucking proud.
Oh, by the way, the reason there are spelling errors in my posts here is because I can't find a spell check like they had at Findlaw. I for one am not going to complain because i think the people who built this board did a great job, you can complain all you want. ingrate!

This post is an example of patronizing.

no. it was an attempt to be.

At which one of the cashiers said conspiratorially "I wouldn't mind taking some off the waist, but I'd never want to lose my butt, 'cause black men love big butts" (she's black). I said "I don't think that's just black men, I think all men like some butt, it's just a white woman thing thinking we should look like sticks all the time." (Me being a white woman.)

That reminds me -- Chris Rock was on Letterman last night and told the story about how one year at the MTV Video Awards, he made a joke about how J Lo and her butt each got nominated, or something like that. P Diddy called him up the next day and said "Chris that wasn't cool," so Chris sent flowers to J LO and to her butt (big laugh). Then he did a very funny bit about "I'm a black man, I love the butt, I'm all about the butt."

I am not doing it justice, it was very funny.

As long as you're petite enough, that's fine, too.

Alas, short and fat. Kind of like a cube.

Strangely, this struck me as one of the most romantic things I have ever read. Suddnely I wish I was six inches shorter and thirty pounds lighter.


And if I ever caught anyone cheating on me, and nobody ever would I assure you, I would not throw the clothes out the window. My ex's ex did this to him and it just seemed so ridiculous. Like saying you are psycho is gonna make him feel worse? It is funny though,

As for Wade, I didnt watch this from the beginning but I get this totally unctuous vibe from him. Do men in Texas regularly call chicks "sweetheart"? Why not say "hi generic girl whose name I cant remember"? Yuck. I will pretend to myself that my Matthew Mconnaughey would never do such a thing.

In Dallas, yes. The general aura that you describe actually makes most locally-raised men undateable for those of us from the Northeast.

Picture me shrugging. I have some vague recolection that for the economic hardship thing it was pretty much a sliding scale with diminishing effect (e.g.: the jump between 0 and 1 kids was big, between 1 and 2 big but less so, and between 7 and 8 fairly small). For the educational attainment studies I have no memory at all. Most parents I've talked to would argue that the real difference in how you establish control comes when you hit 3 kids, when you have to move from one-on-one to zone defense. I would imagine the "large families" they probably studied were more like 5-6 kids vs 2 kids, though.

What's considered a "large" family? More than three kids, more than four?

What is slot A?

You sick fuck. The ear?

I will defer to the original taxonomist, whose name I don't recall and am too lazy to go back and find (it was in the Kobe Bryant discussion), but I think that the traditional tool of heterosexual love was Tab A, and there was no Slot A, for avoidance of confusion.

I also recall naming some other tabs and slots (mouth and fingers), but you and Mr. Kiss will have to come up with the appropriate euphimisms for skullfucking. Ant twat, but toomy.

A friend at a party told me he trimmed his pubes and that it made his package look more impressive... so... Standing in front of the mirror a few months or so, I decided to break out the scissors (I don't recommend doing this drunk or in a hurry for obvious reasons) and did some work down there. Low and behold if it didn't make my package look about an inch longer. The trick, however, is not in trimming the balls, but trimming the frontal area. An added plus is that if you go commando, having the front trimming prevents you from zipping up your pubes.... which is painful. Extremely painful...

As to inscure laywers' phone messages, I had to deal with this total tool lawyer a few months ago who'd never answer my fucking calls and had a secretarial voicemail. When I finally met the son of a bitch, he turned out to be a 5'7 little shit with wire rimmed glasses and a dead fish handshake. I almost laughed directly in his face when I realized that he'd been deepening his voice to sound more masculine on the phone. Alas, I have met various versions of this little box of neurosis in every firm I know - he's the rule, not the exception...

I know shaving your dick to make it look bigger could be seen as an "experiment," and no one is saying you need to puff, but your second paragraph point of conveying the image of a lawyer who is insecure in his physique might have been stronger if it didn't follow your shaving description. think-seperate posts

It's the "not tall enough to stand facing the other way but not light enough to comfortably (for both of us) hold in the air" middle ground that is difficult in hot, dusty attic sex, in my experience.

Dude, have her stand on one of the boxes or chests or bits of furniture mouldering away in said hot, dusty attic. Learn to use the props available to you, man.

I think he said that Lopez was the Commodores and her ass was Lionel Richie.

I'm starting to think you are funny, but it would help if you used more punctuation and capitalization. Or something. Because currently it reads like mentally disabled, drug-addicted homeless guy muttering to himself.

I will succumb to the trend of the day and say NTTAWWT. IMHO. YMMV.

I caught the very end of Meet My Folks where the guy who won ended the segment by saying something like, "See, I'm not gay. NTTAWWT."

Also, poor Hawk.

He would have his secretary make all calls and then have the caller hold for a minute or two before he'd pick up the phone.

Outside of POTUS, my response to anyone who has someone else call, i.e. "Please hold for Mr. ___", is to simply say "No" and hangup. This includes a state senator, so far.
