Toronto Trim's Hotel Cum Drop-in Centre

The party I went to yesterday had 40s. It has been quite some time since I last enjoyed the unique flavors that make up malt liquor and I was shocked that these flavors weren't quite as subtle as I remembered.

I watched some of the fireworks on HD last night. Same thing every year, except this year Mariah Carey performed. And this is where it gets good.

So I'm watching her sing some generic pop song and, as usual, she is wearing very little clothing. The thing about Mariah, though, is that she is a big woman. Not overly fat by any stretch, but she is thick. Beyonce thick in the legs and her waist is now way past what she thinks it is (or what it should be given the clothes she wears). "What's the point?" you may ask (and I commend you for staying focused; clearly you haven't had a 40 in a long time). I'm looking at her and something ain't right. Short shorts and a half-top show off her abs, which are defined. This is really bothering me, since when she leans to the sides, a clear roll of fat appears. I pause the show and look closer.

Mariah Carey has drawn a six pack on her stomach. Let me repeat that. Mariah Carey has drawn a six pack on her stomach. She shaded the sides and actually drew lines where abs would be on a person who was in shape (with shading underneath each to make them look contoured). Now, that is sad. Couldn't be sadder.


Seen this weekend: Sandra Bernhard at the playground. She is indeed as ugly in person as she appears to be on tv.

TM

Madonna drew a sixpack on herself in that last movie she made that did not fare well critically or at the box office.

We sat next to Sandra Bernhard at the ivy when she was pregnant. I would say she is as uniquely beautiful in person as she is on the screen. And apparently agteless as I think she is closing in on fifty.

Notes from a Small Town Fourth of July Parade:

My neighborhood's parade was much different. Best part: free ice cream from Amy's Ice Cream (close runner-up: the bunny driving the tank. Tank-driving bunnies are presumptively funny). Worst part: Walking the crowded sidewalk around the elementary school where the parade ended, gf noticed a circle drawn on the sidewalk, and there was a large crack in the sidewalk running through the circle. The circle was labeled "Uranus." Gf said, "That is totally random. Why would they put that there? Does Uranus have a big crack?" That may be our last Allendale Fourth of July Parade.

When she runs out to the grocery you may want to sneak read her email.

Sounds like he might find white-out and stamps on the screen.

This advice sucks. You're telling him to get ugly already when the only thing you know about these people is that she's allegedly cheating.

I thought he said he confirmed that she definitely was cheating. Either way, Vegas hookers are necessary.

I wasn't quibbling with your advice, but now that we're on the subject, would this really help? The worst part of infidelity is probably the blow to the other's ego. Would paying someone to stroke it for you actually soothe it? Or be such a blow to the cheating spouse?

I don't know, but the only thing that made me forget a relationship was sex with someone else. I didn't utilize hookers, so I had to wait a few weeks/months or so to meet someone else, but once I had sex with someone else, the previous relationship was obliterated. I think it works that way for most people. This poor cat has to obliterate his wife's memory if he intends to move on, which I concur he should do. Suggesting hookers is obviously a joke, but frankly, he needs something to at least temporarily eliminate his wife from the database asap.

Of course, I never did this in the context of marriage, and I don't think I loved anyone until my wife (generally, I just played "relationship" for sex because that was what I understood the trade off to be), so my experience might be for shit.

ETA: To be brutally honest, the very worst thing about the loss of a relationship is that first night where you realize you're not getting laid unless you go out and work for it. That is terrific pain.

Could we get Cuckold to expand on what he found? How are we sure she's actually fucking Bill and not just emailing him?

I'm not sure if Sebby's goal here is the mending of long-term healthy relationships so much as immediate gratification.

I don't understand why you assume that the relationship is lost. Lots of marriages survive cheating in the non-soap opera world. And they're not all "open" marriages.

And I don't think having sex with someone else obliterates the memory of the last relationship. That has not been my experience at all.

I agree that it won't obliterate a marriage, but he's gotta start somewhere. And in order to salvage the marriage, if he chooses that course, he still has to have sex with somebody else. You can't be a fucking cuckold. The score has to be even to start again. And she has to know that he's been with someone else. Its the only equitable way to do the thing...

Sitting back, wallowing, will do you no good. You have to attack the problem. Hit it head on.

My point is really that fucking a hooker won't even the score. It just seems more pathetic. Fucking her sister would go beyond evening the score. You need something in between.

Again, I disagree. Why would you assume his ego is so fragile that he has to go out and do the very thing that he condemns in his wife? I don't believe in this eye for an eye crap either.

I agree that he may be completely justified in cheating now that his wife has, but I don't think it's necessarily the most productive thing he can do right now.
