When my youngest was 12, she came into the kitchen with an old lampshade on her head and, in a monotone 'note' sang "hummmmm I am masturbating'
My jaw dropped - she took one look at my shocked face and said 'err no - that's the wrong word. I meant meditating' :giggle:
The lady in question used a selection of synonyms and a delighful simile to honestly describe her shape and size ... she communicated this effectively to you and you understood the message. So what's the problem? Whether she said fat, cuddly or obese, you still understood she wasn't slim. From that, you could then decide whether she was your type or not.
And I don't see how she was 'glorifying being unhealthy' ... correct me if I'm wrong but I was under the impression this was a swinger's site - not a health and fitness one. People only need to describe how they look and a bit about their personality - not what their blood pressure or resting heart rate is! People on here are, generally, looking for sexual encounters - not someone to go jogging with!
What a sad, flat, bland world it would be if we only ever communicated in literal terms just to suit those who lack the imagination to appreciate our colourful vocabulary.
A different slant on this theme ...
When my brother-in-law died the day before his son's 9th birthday, I bought my nephew a very special wooden box and, using some silver stick on letters, put '*****'s memory box' on the top. Inside, I put an empty note book and pen and a small photo album. I said to my newphew it was a box where he could put items / photos that were special and reminded him of his dad - the book was to write his feelings and 'letters' to his dad even though he wasn't there in person.
He's 16 now and still treasures his memory box
Why do people do that? Make a 'leading' statement, an obscure reference to it ... then when asked what they mean, they go all 'hush-hush'?
If you're not willing or able to discuss what you post, why bother to post at all? It's just bloody annoying!
Well we managed an 11th hour miracle ... so we don't have to go after all!! Happy days!! :thrilled:
Our membership runs out on the 20th and, as we don't really have the money to renew it, we have to say goodbye. We weren't prolific posters but came here every day to read the forums and appreciated the discussions and the considerable wit of the members. We made a few good friends in the couple of years we've been here and chatted to some great people in the chat rooms. Attended some fun socials (mainly southcoast and BBW rooms) and generally had a blast.
So ta ta to anyone who knows us - live long and prosper ... and happy swinging!

As the parents of a 14 year old daughter, we're absolutely devastated for you both. Our thoughts are with you at this sad time xx
My son-in-law, a Royal Marine, has been posted to Plymouth ... he left on Monday. My daughter and gorgeous, adorable 2 year old grandson leave tomorrow. They had their dinner here tonight as her cooker is disconnected and I was choked up the whole time. I put a brave face on it as I waved them goodbye but now I'm devastated. Don't know how I'm going to function at work tomorrow knowing they're moving away :upset:
What tragic news ... sending our deepest condolences Suze xx
My first is the same as EVERY fekkin year ... to lose weight yadda yadda blah blah
Another is to try and get a better paid job. I don't mind my job but, sweet jesus, the pay is crap!! :sad:

Everything started going to rats for us in 2007 and has taken a slow decline ever since ... and it looks like there's worse to come in 2010. Not looking forward to it at all I'm afraid :sad:
I'm obviously in the minority here ... but yuk, yuk, yuk!! I don't swallow and I don't spit either as I won't have the stuff anywhere near my face let alone in my mouth. I gag even at the smell of it and as for the consistency ... :eeek:
I guess it's a case of each to their own
Pom had major surgery at the end of September and will be off work probably until at least spring 2010 ... and gets ZERO sick pay from his company. All we have is my pathetic wage which isn't even enough to pay the bills. Christmas? Bought some stuff from a charity shop and second hand off ebay for the kids, no tree up yet - I'm just not feeling that 'Ho ho ho Christmas spirit', can't even afford to take part in the £5 secret santa at work (much to my humiliation). SO yeah - bah fucking humbug!
Armani Code ... subtle and classy (and you can get male and female versions)
I really need to go to specsavers ... I thought the thread title was 'Site OUTRAGE' and so rushed in to check out the tasty gossip! lol
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world
One of my all time fave films - full of classic Hollywood A listers and hilariously funny!
