Taking Life Seriously
Thoughts For Those Who Take Life Too
Seriously :-)
Save the whales. Collect the whole set.
A day without sunshine is like, night.
On the other hand, you have different fingers.
I just got lost in thought. It was unfamiliar territory.
42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.
99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.
I feel like I'm diagonally parked in a parallel universe.
Honk if you love peace and quiet.
Remember, half the people you know are below average.
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.
The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
I drive way too fast to worry about cholesterol.
Support bacteria. They're the only culture some people have.
Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7 of your week.
A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.
Get a new car for your spouse. It'll be a great trade!
Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.
Always try to be modest, and be proud of it!
If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.
How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise my hand...
OK, so what's the speed of dark?
How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink?
If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.
When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.
Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.
If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends?
Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.
I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.
Why do psychics have to ask you for your name?
Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened.

Melomane... Re: The Drive-In Cinema
Hi Mel. Thought it about time to start a new string. The "Drive-In" cinema ? You're right, we didn't have these in the UK, but were well aware of them from American movies. Many the time as a teenager, myself and a girl would be snogging (petting ?) in the dark of the stalls or circle, and watching with envy , as you Yankee teens made out in the privacy of a car. How we envied you !! You guesed right about me being from the UK. What gave me away, my spelling of "favourite"? Incidentally I've always had great respect and liking for Americans, that is apart from President George W Bush !!!!! You asked about Jim Jarmusch. To be honest I've seen hardly anything of his work, really not enough to from an opinion. What's your take on him ? Should I rent some of his movies ? I trust your judgement.
Cheers..... Alan
Cheers..... Alan
RE: Melomane... Re: The Drive-In Cinema
Jim Jarmusch is a legend - for an experience try Night on Earth - the scene with Roberto Benigni as a taxi driver taking a Priest across Rome is one the funniest things you will ever see + it's got Beatrice Dalle in it!
RE: Melomane... Re: The Drive-In Cinema
Hi Mel... Just loved your Dads "Dublin" joke. I'm a great admirer of the Irish, but more about that another time.

Lotto:))
A blonde finds herself in dire trouble.
Her business has gone bust and she’s in serious financial straits. She’s so desperate that she decides to ask God for help.
She begins to pray, “God, please help me. I’ve lost my business and if I don’t get some money, I’m going to lose my house as well. Please let me win the lotto.”
Lotto night comes, and somebody else wins it.
She prays again, “God, please let me win the lotto! I’ve lost my business, my house and I’m going to lose my car as well.”
Lotto night comes and she still has no luck.
Once again, she prays, “My God, why have you forsaken me? I’ve lost my business, my house, and my car. My children are starving. I don’t often ask you for help, and I have always been a good servant to you. PLEASE just let me win the lotto this one time so I can get my life back in order.”
Suddenly there is a blinding flash of light as the heavens open and the blonde is confronted by the voice of God Himself.
“Sweetheart, work with Me on this……….. ‘Buy a ticket.’”

RE: Do you think that men who are good dancers are good lovers?
No, it is complete nonsense. Better question is.... just because a man cannot dance, or is a bad dancer, does that automatically mean he is a bad lover? my answer on that is no, of course not. But unfortunately I think many or maybe even most women would say yes to that.
Truth is, lovemaking skills and dancing skills are 2 completely unrelated skill sets. Just because a guy can shake his ass on the dance floor doesn't mean he knows how to move his weiner in the bedroom or that he'll last more than 2 minutes or that he won't be selfish and only care about his own pleasure and satisfaction.
Some guys spend alot of time learning how to dance cuz they know it WILL get them A LOT of women in their beds (mostly because so many women buy into that ridiculous fairy tale that a man who is a good dancer is automatically a good lover). Other guys spend alot of their time instead learning how to be great lovers cuz they know IF they DO get a woman in their bed, afterwards she will never want to leave it.
And I can also say that the same answer is true of women. Just because a woman is a great dancer doesn't mean she will be any good in bed... and without going into details, I can say that I know this to be fact from personal experiences with a few women.
Character and personality are far more accurate indicators of a persons lovemaking skills than their dancing skills are. Also if their screennames start with the letter C, they are incredible lovers. That's a proven fact. :P

RE: Do you think that men who are good dancers are good lovers?
Im a good dancer and good in bed :p The question is,, Does the "inner rythm" help me move better in bed or is it my good selfasteam, (from beeing a good dancer,) that makes me better in bed? Maybe its just to much confididence that I think Im good in bed and think Im a good dancer, when Im really not... Maybe Im not a good dancer, just good in bed because of my high confidence that again is because of my grownup size pe-pe.. Go figure it out.....If I was god in bed, would I be a good dancer? Probably not *TendertherealKnight*notslimshady*justslim
RE: Do you think that men who are good dancers are good lovers?
Yes !! for sure...
guys with no rythme suck in bed but are always jealous of guys who move well..

RE: Do you think that men who are good dancers are good lovers?
Dancing is a vertical expression of a horizontal desire. :)
RE: Do you think that men who are good dancers are good lovers?
I am a shit dancer. I had a relationship with a girl who was an amazing dancer. She was so uptight that sex with her was about as fun as screwing a dead horse. Sex with my previous girlfriend (who couldn't dance) was fantastic. So it's certainly not true of women (in my experience).

I guess men who dance nice are seen as good lovers just because they are more charming than other men. They can feel the music and are more passionate, women love that. I know i do

Sex Lessons
let me first say--sex is part of a relationship between a man and a woman. A man plan is to get all he can get, before he turn's a age that he can't. (I know some of you 90 year old men on here are going to say -hey, I can still get all I can get) well that is cool,, but please share some of your advice on to us, so we know what to do at that age-That is my first question.
Question Number 2: when a man and woman has sex, do you think that the man should clean sober or drunk (I know some of you are going to say both--but think ablout before you do)

RE: Sex Lessons
Chase, I don't have advise of my own to offer, but can pass along this from the American comedian, the late George Burns: At his 90th birthday bash a reporter asked, "Hey George, what's it like making love at age 90?" To which Burns replied, "It's like shooting pool with a rope." lol!

RE: Who thinks the girls fake it?
i am fairly sure that some cam girls would have an orgasm here sometimes - obviously could not be every time they had a video but in a relaxed fun show with a member they like it is surely going to be possible to have one sometimes (after all if you can have an orgasm by masturbating on your own then i cannot really believe that having someone watching you and telling you how sexy you look etc would mean that an orgasm was totally impossible).
do i care? well, personally i would prefer the host to enjoy (whether that is by having an orgasm, a fun chat or whatever) the show too but if she cannot have a real orgasm on camera or doesn't happen to have a real one in video with me then it doesn't really spoil my day too much as i can still have a good time :) (although having said that a very bad obviously faked orgasm is not something that makes you really keen to return another time)

RE: Who thinks the girls fake it?
I dont even know for sure ( 100%) when my gf cums ,,
so how the f**** will anyone know here ??
I am sure it happens ..
but remember , a woman cums more in her mind than just by friction..
So im sure they can act ...
and im sure ,,
for those with a more sexy disposition ( some here maybe never have by the sounds and looks of them hehehe)
Im sure some enjoy cumming here .. when they want to..;)

celeb quotes
Alicia Silverstone…"I think that the film Clueless was very deep. I think it was deep in the way that it was very light. I think lightness has to come from a very deep place if it's true lightness."
Alicia will next try and convince us that 2 plus 2 equals 5 and that red is actually blue.
Michael Jackson…"The most loving thing to do is to share your bed with someone."
Wacko Jacko likes to make his defence team work hard for their money.
Mariah carey…."I loved Jordan. He was one of the greatest athletes the world has ever produced."
Nice sentiments Mariah - but it was the King of Jordan who died, not Michael Jordan.
Christina Aguilera…"So, where's the Cannes Film Festival being held this year?"
Despite what she says, Christina is no genie in a bottle.
Jesica simpson…."Jessica, you want some buffalo wings?" "Sorry I don't eat buffalo."
Her mum said that Jessica had an IQ of 160... she must have added the extra zero herself!
Jade goodey..."I am intelligent, but I let myself down because I can't speak properly or spell."
Jade's application to join Mensa... or should that be denser?
David beckham…"My parents have been there for me - ever since I was about seven."
Becks finally buries the myth that he is thick.
Brooke shields…"Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life."
Having a degree in French literature doesn't exempt Brooke from sounding daft as a brush.
Arnold Schwarzenegger…."I think gay marriage is something that should be between a man and a woman."
Arnie should pay more attention to his brain than is biceps!
Britney spears…"I've never really wanted to go to Japan. Simply because I don't like eating fish. And I know that's very popular out there in Africa."
Britney may have shaved off her locks, but there is no hiding the blonde lurking underneath.

Question re: The Wealth of Nations
On 11 April NastyBitch posted a comment titled “hmmm,” in which she raised the question of the US being a rich nation by quoting one Kazimierz Bartoshevich. The quote is as follows:
America - the richest country in the world because half of its population is made by the cashiers who have run away from the [sic] Europe and their descendants.
The quote seems poorly translated from the original; its meaning is not altogether clear. Nevertheless, a thread ensued in which it was pointed out that in terms of per capita income, countries such as Luxembourg and United Arab Emirates are “richer” than the US.
I believe we cannot measure the wealth of a nation by money alone. Using other measures, it could be argued that the US is in some respects poorer than other nations.
QUESTION: By what should we measure a nation’s wealth? Using your criteria, do you think your nation is wealthy? What nation or nations do you think are wealthy?

RE: Question re: The Wealth of Nations
Maybe a country could be world-rated in terms of its Contentment Quotient. I had a student from Liechtenstein who was one of the most contented people I've ever met. He was Swiss and married a woman from Liechtenstein; he was able to escape Swiss Army duties because of his now dual nationality.
He had a wonderfully large house in its own grounds, worked for a Liechtenstein-based company and loved it there. He and his family went walking in the mountains at weekends. He told me, I have yet to meet a person there unhappy with their life. An exaggeration I guess as we all have our personal problems nevertheless, I nominate Liechtenstein.

Re: "Contentment Quotient"
Ally, I like the idea. Let's call it the CQ! But flesh it out a bit. Okay he has a house on a nice piece of land; he and his family walk in the mountains; he's got a good job he likes, etc. But can you articulate or isolate those qualities that will be factored in the CQ? Are there certain essential elements (physical, cultural, social, political, etc.) without which no man would count himself wealthy?
RE: Re:
posted a reply but it's disappeared! I'll try again.....
I only met this one person from that country so I can only really talk about him. Fit, happily married, happy and well-motivated kids, living under a benign government, much-loved titular royal family (kinda). I'm in UK which has many social problems - personally, I wouldn't rate us that highly.

RE: Question re: The Wealth of Nations
The term "wealth" seems too vauge. I'm sure someone will mention the average family income or medical care or schools or gross national output or quality of shitters on the side of the road. No one nation can be #1 in all of these fields. I say if you are happy where you live then good for you :D.
RE: Question re: The Wealth of Nations
Kofi, I chose the term "wealth," not to be vague, but to be more expansive than the sum total of economic measures such as, "avg. household income, local tax rate, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), etc. I want the assessment to include not only quantitative elements, but also qualitative elements that are less measurable, but no less important (arguably more important) than those that are readily quantifiable. Econometrics has its place, but it tells us nothing about some of the things we deem most important.
Political and civic life, a sense of belonging to a community, how we interact on a daily basis with neighbors and merchants, how and where we buy our food, our eating and work habits, etc. are all a part of what makes for a rich (or poor ) life.
You said, “Someone will say…,” but what do you say? Of what does your wealth consist?

How about freedom? There is an organization that rates countries based on there economic freedom which includes freedom from confiscatory taxes. It should be an important factor. I may make more money than you but if the government takes it from me what have I gained?
Ireland is the Richest Nation
Lol Alan! Your post reminded me of a joke my late father told. He loved 'corny' humor.
He asked with a straight face, "What's the richest country in the world?" Pausing for a moment, I replied, "United Arab Emirates, or one of the Gulf States?"
"No," he responded, keeping his straight, "It's Ireland."
"Ireland?!!," I blurted out, "No way!"
"It is," he persisted,"because its capital is always Dublin." :)

RE: Friday 13th
I live at number 13 not 12B as some people renumber it. Grew up in number 39 (3x13 of course).
RE: Friday 13th
Friday the 13th is not considered in all parts of the world. I was in Korea before and noticed the hotels didn't have a 4th floor, they sequence went 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th floor. They considered 4 unlucky. I'm sure in Russia, Australia, Pakastain, Africa etc. they have their own set of "stupidstitions" :D
The Land of Oz?
"The nicest?"...."They never lie?"...."Never pretend?" Gabs, methinks you are looking through rose colored glasses. I think gay men have no monopoly on virtue. If you think otherwise, you're living in the land of Oz. (Maybe you know "The Wizard of Oz" is a cult film among gay men.) Perhaps you just aren't familiar with a different manner of dissembling.
RE: The Land of Oz?
No, I just have some gay guys as friends and they have been the best friends I ever had! That is all. And I wasnt talking about all gays, I was talking about the ones I know and enjoy being friends with.
RE: The Land of Oz?
Hey Melomane, Wizard of Oz is one of my favourite films.. has been since as long as I can remember. You telling me I am gay? ;) In which case Charlotte, you ought to be falling over yourself to see what a nice, honest, friend I am :P hehe.

RE: Can you...
That wud, Your question belies a bias and, perhaps unintentionally, serves as a kind of "red baiting." Okay, homosexuality is an anomaly, but the inherent bias of your question is exposed if set against the backdrop of the question: "Can you be friends with a straight person?" Silly question, right? Then so is the other one.
If some guy is trying to hit on me, then sure I'm going to make it clear I don't 'go that way,' but all other things being equal there is no reason to preclude the possibility of friendship with someone who is gay. His or her sexual orientation is not the factor by which I will decide to be friends or not.

RE: Can you...
on the contrary melomane.i think it is a very valid question.not for the obviousness of the question & the simplicity of the answers but for the sublety of making people think about their prejudices & biases.if someone says no here we know immediately that they are a"judge a book by the cover person".perhaps a shallow self-centred individual....
RE: Can you...
I don't disagree with your points. I didn't say the essence of the question was invalid, only that the way it is constructed is prejudicial, rather like saying, "Can you be friends with a convicted felon?" On the other hand, I suppose one could argue it's defensible to ask the question this way, and regard the prejudice as a tacit acknowledgement of the long-standing prejudice against homosexuals in society at large. Nevertheless, it remains prejudicial.
That said, I grant the question has the merit of being both simple and direct. And I quite agree with you, that quality forces a simple yes-- or-- no answer, and would readily expose those who are closed minded.
Perhaps it is impossible to ask this question in a way that is without prejudice. Even the "don't-judge-a-book-by-its cover" image suggests there is something wrong and undesirable about the cover.

RE: Can you...
not necessarily about the cover of the book but the tainted eyes & mind that judge that cover."don't judge a book by its cover"can be used on anything not just those that are deemed undesirable,i think was the way you put it.
RE: Can you...
Yes, my friend Laurence was gay, he died of hepatitis. It amused me that he talked about guys in much the same way as I did women. He would tell me, look at him, he's gorgeous! I'd look round the room totally mystified. Excuse me mate, I'm gonna chat up that hot chick. He'd say, which woman is that? It was kinda obvious to me.

RE: new record!!
i am male but i am sure if i worked here i could beat your record and not earn any money for months and months.
but seriously maybe you need to consider what potential viewers are seeing about you - most will be searching by looking at who's online now (do you have a good pic and a good comment or just a :) or a silly comment with bad broken english),
what do you have in your profile if someone does decide to view more after seeing your profile pic (is it turn ons polite people, turn offs smelly feet or something better?),
what is your photo archive like and is it appropriate to your section (if you are in adult and just have pictures wearing lots of clothes or showing your hands holding fruit then some members may thing they will not be getting what they would hope for in an adult show),
is your price reasonable given the category you are in (i think only fairly special hosts can charge say 1.99 open in little shy when there are other hosts only charging 0.50 - 0.75 in the same category),
i don't know whether you are in adult or non-adult but i think if your english was not very good it would be very difficult to make good money in that section.
possibly it would be worth going into community chat and talking to people there sometimes as it means more people will see your profile by clicking on your host name there (but try not to just annoy people by using lots of emoticons and by sending the same person dozens of private messages when they are not responding to you)
obviously as we don't know your screenname it is not possible to do more than give general advice or sympathise - but i hope things get better for you

RE: new record!!
very sorry about ignoring you in comm chat - still not sure who you are though. any extra clues - do you speak in open or just pvt?
lots of possible excuses for the often not replying in comm chat (often at work - like now - lol, sometimes in forums, sometimes chatting on yahoo or to someone else, sometimes lots of messages at same time when entering the room, and sometimes am there waiting for one host in particular to turn up and just stay quiet if they are not around, and the list goes on....).
the only thing i would say about your price is i often suspect that when the 121 price is about double the open that at some stage we are going to have the "only in 121" discussion

RE: new record!!
thats fine/good.
i only asked if you spoke in public or pvt to try to see if i could get an idea of who you are.
yes, generally i am quiet in public - sometimes speak, often not.
the comments about price/121 were not really aimed at you in person, they were just a general comment as a follow up to the general comments i made in my original post - just giving an idea of some of my possible thought processes as to choosing hosts.

RE: new record!!
two things.if you are referring to community re"hello"i only say a general hello in open..i notice from your replies that you have a sharp biting tongue & a sense of the absurd,that's good.
RE: new record!!
there is that biting wit of your's again.though comparing some of melomane's replies to the great wall of china is funny,apt & lined with imagery.however by admitting to liking some of my replies you are showing your crazy side. LOL!!
RE: new record!!
its nice u 2 can take good natured jabs at each other without taking it personal and getting angry. its good:)
RE: new record!!
that could be because the poster hates themself more.LOL!!p.s ot's is still hard for anyone to know if or how to even visit your room if they don't know your handle.
RE: new record!!
if he is bela that means in a few posts above he was disagreeing with himself.

Question for the girls
Why does a (shy) host show her pussy so much ......mmm...faster or more comfortably than showing her breasts? I think it would be the other way around, but I have found this to happen most of the time.
RE: Question for the girls
I have seen this in many for real women.
Men judge women on the size, shape, perky, hard nippled boob.
Men think a pussy is great no matter what is looks like.
Shy women are much more concerned about being judged poorly for their breast.
They know men will love their pussy!

RE: Question for the girls
I agree completely with this post...........mystery solved :)
A shaved pussy is a lot less judgmental as to attractiveness than breasts so the host has a sure winner every time :)

Life Lessons and Question
Everyday is a wonderful day. You are beautiful no matter about what they say. Words can not bring you down. Go ahead and take on this world. ---Shake It----Rock It----and--Rattle and Roll. Keep on fighting what you believe in to the end.
Question: What was the most beautiful thing and/or place you have seen in the last 168 hours (7 days)?
My Answer Is: I seen these 150 bikers made up of women and men travel from the south to the west coast and at one stop we (wells lets just say 4 of the 150, but we all others where there for moral support) help give birth to a woman that was stranded on a highway and about 120 miles away from the hospital. Wow, when I seen that, it brought back some memories of years ago, but was a doctor and nurses at the woman side and knew what they were doing,, but this-was, well it was so cool.
