    I wasnt taking it as offensive, hence the smilies. I was just being my usual smart arsed self is all!
    And we have the odd one... they usually come in with wigs on.
    And i was only pointing out that i do come in here anyway. Never said that you lot werent well behaved or anything hence the as i do everywhere else bit. but if i do feel like posting something i'm going to.
    And i agree you have a good thread going here. It wouldnt have been made thread of the month if you didnt.

    Same way the women will eventually get bored and totter off from here too!
    What you lot need to do is talk a bit more about topics women arent going to feel interested in... now we have our topics that scare men off... i'm sure you lot have more than one up your sleeves!

    Good grief - I never even knew there was one.

    I'm guessing this is a permanent award since I can't imagine one better!

    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    You can tell a woman walked into the room. That subject is taboo among men.

    Alright, since you insist on invading the Bloke's thread, I will ask you directly:
    Have you ever worn day glo socks or brothel creepers?

    Um, what's going on? *worried look*

    *confused* And what on earth are glo socks, brothel creepers, and pankhurst gel?

    And oh, Mr. Atheist, I didn't know it was supposed to hurt afterward! (My mom's a nurse, I'm used talking about this stuff)

    #1 - really bright socks
    #2 - soft shoe from the 1950s and '70s (equally-hideous as the socks)
    #3 - refers to Pankhurst Girls [Gels/Gals] and named for Emily Pankhurst, notorious & dastardly suffragette from a century ago.

    No, I didn't know it hurt afterwards either! I'll know next time, though.
