What is the difference between a fuckwit and a fucktard? I need to know what to mutter when I hang up after talking to certain work people.

I might keep my current apartment for student housing for wayward young women of exceptional promise. Gotta give something back to the community.

So, you have an aversion to warm weather?

1. Apartment in Paris
2. Bali, or if that is impractical, some Caribbean something, with a boat slip for the boyfriend and a lot of umbrellas for me
3. Chalet in Chamonix or lodge on Lake Louise/Banff
4. Big rambler in SW France
It feels Euro-heavy and I want to add something on the other side of the world but with all that money I'll just stay in fantastic hotels until that's for sure.

This feels very deja vu-y. I am not sure where I would want my main house, let alone the two extras. Almost certainly in the US.

Nope. I grew up in a town where summers were quite hot. Last summer it reached 108 at my parents' house.
I don't like humidity, so I'm not buying a house anywhere humid. Those who saw my epic sweating performance at ACL a few years back may recall that I'd be perfect as the Aaron Altman character in the inevitable remake of Broadcast News (with Ellen Pompeo in the Holly Hunter role).
I'd spend much of my summers on Lake Tahoe. The salubrious climate of Lake Tahoe is the perfect match for the region's spectacular alpine scenery and our year-round outdoor lifestyle. During the summer months, the weather is practically ideal. In June, July, and August, the probability of sunny skies exceeds 90% on any given day, and the average afternoon high temperature ranges between 69 and 77 degrees.
I wouldn't buy a house in a tropical climate for the same reason I wouldn't buy a penthouse in New York. I wouldn't be there that often, so it just makes more sense (even if I'm filthy rich) to stay in four-star hotels/resorts.
eta: Obviously Katherine Heigl is far, far more attractive than Ellen Pompeo, but Ellen would be a better casting choice.

I'd like to see people I know naked, sheerly for the curiosity of it.
I mean, come on... Everybody at least one time thinks about what people they know or regularly interact with look like naked. Maybe I don't want to look at it for a prolonged period of time, but I do want to see it at least once.
There ought to be a rule that allows for that. You should be able to ask someone politely if you might view them nude, and not have it be considered a socially untoward act.

Blanton's

Old Fitzgerald
Van Winkle's (silly name, but good bourbon)

I think you are still hung up on the concept of "strange" and "titaaays" but I digress.
This is an interesting question, one that I have considered recently frequently after losing a signficant amount of weight. My clothes are a lot more form fitting now, and sometimes you can see glimpses of my bra lace from my v neck sweater. Can the rules regarding wanting to see someone naked change based on improvement of appearance?

I've seen everyone from a particular group of friends naked, due to someone's "no clothes allowed in the swimming pool" rule and the rather large amount of alcohol / drugs available at that same friend's house. It's not as exciting as one would think.

I drive by it everyday. They won't let me in*. I am sort of swarthy.
*Unless I was willing to serve drinks.

Somebody better put out the red light, cause I can't stand to see you this way.

I knew someone would argue this point. I disagree. Just because I show a willingness to let the unsolicited fellatio-offerer proceed with the unsolicited fellatio does not change the unsolicited nature of said fellatio. I don't make the woman wrestle me to the ground and forcibly remove my cock from my pants, but that does not mean I have actually solicited anything, fellatio or otherwise.
