Why do people do this.

A colleague came up to me at work today and he said (in a normal tone of voice,)" Guess what I did last night Leagl?" of course I asked what. He says (normal tone) "On tv I watched" (now really really quiet) "The L Word." (normal tone) "I enjoyed it it was quite good."

I mean wtf?

The same reason people come up to me and say "I watched American Gigolo last night"

Or "Shakes the Clown"

I can appreciate this. I mean I am after all, incredibly cool. But why whisper it?

He hasn't yet come to grips with being so cool. He needs some time to accept it. Maybe it is because he is talking about the love that dare not speak its name - he thinks it whispers its name.

My grandfather used to do the same thing (whisper words like "divorced", "cheating" - stuff like that). I think he did it so the children couldn't hear what he was talking about. Of course, when he whispered it *to* the children, it kind of defeated the purpose. Also, when he went very deaf, he just yelled it out like he yelled everything out.

Haven't read the board for three days (and don't have time to now), so forgive me if NFH has already broke the story that Jeff Garcia had a .237 blood alcohol level - http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...JEFFGARCIA.TMP

IRL, that's about as big as one and a half diet coke cans. i.e., too big. You need to take some lessons from either the veggie sausage or, if you cannot stomach the veggie sausage, from the Three Bears.

Sausages come in all sizes, from the cute little smokies to more lengthy kielbasas and girthy salamis. No one leaves the table hungry.

I'm not sure how to put this in words you will understand. There is no virtual tour of the house I want to look at. No one has come through with cameras and laptops. I am not the seller (if I were, I would not be needing someone else to take me through it) so I can't arrange for there to be a virtual thingy. 20 minutes is longer than she appears to be alloting for me to see the house, anyway. There is only minimal information about this house on the seller's agent's website. It did not have dimensions of rooms or anything. Just square footage and number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and some stuff about a new range.

Can you understand this? If not, PM PLF and he will explain to you.

It's not immoral, unethical, or even unseemly. Any suggestion otherwise is ridiculous. (Hi NFH!)

I am going to look at penthouses next week with one of my friends. He might be interested in a place, but he's not sure. The broker knows he's just looking and I am just along for design advice. She's happy. The owner's happy someone is seeing it. I am happy to see how the other half live and wistfully gaze out of the floor-to-ceiling two story windows.

Sigh.

I feel your pain, sister. Let's go out for some smoked kielbasa and hot german potato salad. We'll both feel better about life. Then we can pray for you cojnversion from your life of damnable sin so that you don't roast forever in the hottest parts of hell, with all the other carpet-munching feminazis.

Come on now, wouldn't you prefer munching a carpet to eating a sausage? How can you condemn me for having the same preference in food choice as you? And really, those of us that munch carpets instead of eat sausages, if you prick us do we not bleed? If you lick us do we not moan? If you show us a 10 inch penis do we not run away? Are we really all that different?

No, I say, a thousand times no. We are much the same. Well, except we give our girlfriends better orgasms. Still, I can hardly take credit for a God given gift.

I'm not in the market for a house for at least a couple years. But I'm thinking of eventually buying in the neighborhood the house is in, and want to get an idea of what one can get for $X.

Sometimes people look at houses with no intention of buying them, and end up buying them.

Does Jimmy Dean have hot italian sausage? I adore hot italian sausage.

They do, but probably not the kind you want:



I highly recommend this, though. BUt it could turn you into a maple-flavored lesbian:

The Citizen Kane of alcoholic clown movies.

Classic.

[Not Me]

It says I have a new unread PM in my inbox, but when I check it, there are no unread PM's. Does this mean that someone on my ignore list is PM'ing me?

Inherently gorgeous people are not a fair test. They look good in anything, and make anything look good.

It is, in contrast, morally bad to waste our time continuing this discussion. Just take the fucking house tour, and let us know what sex toys they left in the closet.

Exactly! Except that Jesus is not attractive in that way.
