The urge for me to put my foot in the ass of either the dog or the walker in that situation is becoming nearly uncontainable.

Carry some garden shears and cut the damn leash. That'll teach 'em.

Why do you think Penske runs marathons? There is more bare ass at the beginning of a race than...well, there's lots of bare ass. Female runners will drop trou anywhere if the lines for the port-o-potties are too long.

FWIW, i never peed in my wetsuit, although this is a common practise. I know someone who crapped in the lake at the Springfield Ironhorse. Semi-European type.

A cop once threatened to tazer me. I peed in his desk.

I honestly believe that tattoos on women are no different than facial hair on men. And what I mean by this is, some men like tattoos on women. Some do not. Some women like facial hair. Some do not.

But the preference for one or the other can sometimes be overcome.

For example, I do not prefer men with facial hair. Those of you that have met my boyfriend are now rolling on the floor laughing.

In my experience, women are much more into "types" than men. I am not saying that men don't have their preferences, but they are not as strong as women. The Majority of men like beautiful women. Regardless of their type, there are not many women at a beauty contest that they won't find attractive. But certian women will only date certain kind of men.

Clothes are much more important to women than men. They look at what type of clothes a guy's wear. If a guy doesn't dress the way they like, generally they will not be interested. When it comes to clothes on women, men just prefer clothes that accentuate the positive and hide the negative.

Some women prefer tatoos on men, and find them more attractive with tatoos (same with beards). Some women prefer to date men with no Tatoos. I have met very few men that (in fact I can't ever remember meeting one) that said they would not find a girl attractive except for that she has great tatoos. I have heard a lot of men say that that women would be more attractive if she didn't have all those tatoos.

Rarely the dog's fault. Plant your foot in the owner's ass. Dogs are kewl.

Ladies, just so you know, I have no tatoos. I am tatooless. Someone asks me if I'm getting a tatoo, I'll say, "Fuck no, bitch! No tatoos here! I'm gonna put a sign above my office door that says that, too! 'No Fuckin' Tatoos Here!' So get the fuck outta my way so I can get out of this elevator and go picket that Tatoo Parlor down the street!"

most states a person has to be 18 to get a tattoo w/o parental consent. that means most tattoed women are beyond your target age. have you considered if this is what is really at work in your preferences?

God I hate this. This is one of the more common rude things I have noticed in LA.

I will note that I don't generally hold elevators for anyone.* Maybe this makes me a horribly bad rude person, but I don't care. The up side is that I never never expect, or even hope, that someone will hold the elevator for me either.** My view is that, for the most part, another elevator will surely come along soon and I'm impatient enough to be annoyed when we end up in a vicious cycle of holding the door for just one more person, who then holds it for just one more person, etc. I may be overly sensitive about this at work because I work on the top floor of an elevator bank. I've been known to pray for the doors to close quickly when I rarely manage to get the elevator to myself because the stopping-on-every-floor-before-mine thing is a drag.

And, for the love of god, LIFO everyone.



*I sometimes make an exception at my apartment building because there is only one elevator on each side of the building and it can take quite a while for it to get back to pick up the slightly-behind-you person.

**I have one exception for this one too. If I'm the one who has gotten the elevator to stop on P1 right by the mail slots in order to pick up the mail, I find it rude for you to come along and take the elevator without holding it for me for the 15 seconds it takes me to grab my mail. Rules are not worth having unless there are exceptions, right?

In the real world I am just generally polite. I think people who know me would back me up on this. Part of the reason was this was beat into my brain as a kid. If I didn't hold the door for a women/older person/disabled person, there was quick retribution. I think my parents would have preferred me to being a heroin addict than to having bad manners. It is just part of my training.

I stick with it because I find it makes my life easier. When I am in a bad mood and my politeness starts slipping things just get tougher. There is also no doubt that most women prefer men that have manners. But there is a definite insincerity to being polite. I am very suspicious of very polite people, probably because I know that their actions in no way reflect what is going on in their mind. Also, because I know, that through the years my own politeness has enabled me to get away with all sorts of stuff. The more comfortable I am with someone the less polite I am with them. I think this is true with a lot of people. However, unlike most people I don't prefer to be around polite people.

The only time impolite people tick me off is when I am with other guys and we are out chasing skirts and one of them is rude or impolite. But otherwise, I don't prefer to hang around people that are polite or "well mannered".

Not for nothing but women have a lot less to choose from in terms of eye candy. We have to deal with the whole bald/shave his head factor and the ever fabulous comb over. And man boobs/beer gut.

A handsome man is generally regarded as hot by women.

Most women cannot stand a schlubbily dressed man. we all universally respond to some semblance of style. Again, the downtown look [I hate but others enjoy] or that wild Versace Euro look [again, I hate others enjoy] I despise the whole black jeans and sneakers look. wtf? I prefer Paul Stuart, Hickey, Paul Smith, Bergdorf mens, Zegna.....and of course, custom.

A hawaiian print shirt with a bald dude with a gold chain makes my skin crawl.

What sort of idiot would approach a buck? When the buck around here comes around, I get inside. When the Does are around I try and move as little as possible, but when I see the buck the outdoors loses all its appeal.

So the article says he died doing what he loved. Is "doing" a euphemism for something?

Reason number 465 things would never work out between Spanky and me: I would not be able to stop laughing if someone actually used the term "chasing skirts" in front of me. Ever. It would actually kill me if it is possible to die from laughing too long (or too hard?).

Okay, Sam Spade.

My sister's new boyfriend only wears Hawaiian shirts. No matter what the occasion he shows up in a Hawaiian shirt. I think it is the coolest thing. Her ex husband dressed right out the Ralph Lauren collection, so it is a nice change. Drives my parents crazy.
