A woman goes into the Bass Pro Shop to a rod and reel for her grandson's birthday. She doesnt know which one get so she just grabs one and goes over the counter. A Bass Pro Shop associate is standing wearing dark shades. She says, "Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?"
He says, "Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop on the counter, I can tell you everything about from the sound makes."
She doesnt believe him but drops on the counter anyway.
He says, "That's a six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel and -LB. test line. Its a good all around combination and its on sale this week for $20.00."
She says, "Its amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it dropping on the counter. I'll take it!"
As she opens her purse, her credit card drops on the floor. "Oh, that sounds like a Master Card", he says.
She bends down pick up her MasterCard and accidentally passes wind. At first she is really embarrassed, but then realizes is no way the blind clerk could tell was she tooted. Being blind, he wouldnt know that she was the person around. The man rings up the sale and says, 'That'll be $34.50 please.'
The woman is totally confused by this and asks, Didnt you tell me the rod and reel were on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34.50?
He replies, "Yes, Ma'am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck is $.00 and the Bear Repellent is $3.50."

A young guy from Texas moves to California and goes
to a big department store looking for a job.
The manager says, Do you have any sales experience?
The says,;Yeah, I was a salesman back home in
Texas.
Well, the boss liked the so he gave him the job.
"You start tomorrow. I'll come down after we close and
see how you did.
His first day on the job was rough but he got through
it. After the store was locked up, the boss came
down."How many sales did you make today
The says, One.
The boss says, "ust one? Our sales people average 20
or 30 sales a day. How much was the sale for?"
says, $101,237.64.
Boss says, $101,237.64? What the hell did you sell?
says, First I sold him a small fish hook. Then I
sold him a medium fish hook. Then I sold him a larger
fish hook. Then I sold him a new fishing rod. Then I
asked him where he was going fishing and he said down
at the coast, so I told him he was gonna need a boat,
so we went down to the boat department and I sold him
that twin engine Chris Craft. Then he said he did not
think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him
down to the automotive department and sold him that
4X4 Blazer."
The boss said, A guy came in here to buy a fish hook
and you sold him a boat and truck?
says,No, he came in here to buy a box of tampons
for his wife and I said,Well, your weekend is shot,
you might as well go fishing.

Stepping up, voyeuristic or damaged goods

I see a lot of people join the site, but are their expectations real? A lot of folks,(myself included), start by joining and looking around. We want be seen just enough not be seen. Not knowing, understanding the full extent of what is free and what is not. We don't fully fill out our profile with an introduction, answer key relevant questions or give oblique, vanilla, vague non-committal answers nor do we make a lot of friends right off the bat,(with the exception of the women, lol). We live vicariously through the more active members. This is most everyone's voyeuristic phase. Some do not make beyond this phase either becoming disenfranchised or dropping out completely.
Then you have people that take a step up for various reasons. Some think its enough post pictures of their anatomy as a way to draw people to them. 's all they have offer and have the intellect or personality of a piece of paper. Then you have the one's that will add a blurb about themselves, a slight mention of their intentions, predilections or preferences and a generic or titillating photo. This phase is Stepping Up.
Other's you may find post everything they do or say - including how their past or current relationship sucks so bad. But never actually tell you anything about their habits, interests or otherwise. They'll friend you to feel more important to themselves, but nothing else to move forward. Some say ask me, but tell you nothing. Are these people damaged goods?
are the few that are the genuine article - real people. They are not a bot, not a scam artist, but the REAL McCoy. They fill out their profile, specify what they are looking for and why. They post candid, alluring, sexy, or honest photos. They are honest, earnest, loyal, fun, exciting and humorous people are comfortable with they are, wherever they are. They may have several friends or not, but their candor is genuine...this is me.
However, then are some from each category I've mentioned above that are easily offended if, for goodness sake, you have an allergy smoke, a particular diet, you're married or in a relationship, got the vaccine, didn't get because of health, political stance, favorite sport or team etc, but it doesn't mean that you have view them with bigotries or racist light- can't we all still be friends. What is the world coming where honest, conversation or good natured humor cannot be had in a chat room, online, over a cup of coffee, drink or meal? Lighten up, laugh and live.

Wouldn't it be great to find the one particular person that you were right for each other right from the start? In societal norms there is the concept of - What would a reasonable person do in any given situation?
This is a concept I have battled against time and again simply because a "reasonable person' doesn't exist.
Each person is unique in their own right. Sure, it's well acknowledged that individuals can share some characteristics, mannerisms, physical features, illnesses, and genetic traits.
Although their make-up maybe close - its still a unique "special blend" of these items.
Also, each person can be influenced by others, their own insecurities, cultures, values and living environment. And since these change at a more rapid rate it creates yet again a different "special blend" of contributors that further add to an individual's uniqueness.
Can you imagine life bland, vanilla? To be seen just like every other person and not standout? Same color, shape size, features, income, work, home, car, etc?
I find joy and comfort in being unique as everyone should.
Life is like the weather, is cyclical. Some sound the alarm and argue the global warming is dire and yet they find more history in every inch of ice that disappears. Others say climate change and we're in a cooling cycle. Everything happens in cycles, just at different rates and durations.
Clothing trends come and go, then cycle back in again. Everything ols is new again, lol.
Relationships can be looked at this way as well. thousands of years ago it was socially acceptable to have multiple partners - separately or together. The same might be said about homosexuality. For years early man, king's, Mormons, African tribes and others practiced this. Then it dwindled down. And now its back in the form of open marriages, polyamory, etc.
I posit that while one relationship is fine for some, others need more. Maybe one for each small or large cycle of their lives. Maybe more frequently for another group.
I do know with a reasonable amount of certainty most people are here because, a portion of their lives are unsatisfying, vanilla, without passion. Some desire more experimentation or want to try something more kinky. Other's maybe feel ignored all together or it's time for a change fue to abuse or other things. And some, believe it or not are looking for that one - which they're probably not gonna find here.
So, enjoy the features here that are free, use some points, chat, read blogs, like or friend someone. You don't have to remain anonymous or voyeuristic. Put yourself out there - the worst you make a new friend, at best you change your life.
The only constant in life is change.

There were three ants scouting about a house. they made their way to the bathroom and were tired. It was dark so they decided to rest for the night and continue tomorrow.
One ant found the sink and decided to rest there.
The second made his way to the edge of the tub and found a spot between the inner an outer shower curtains.
The third on found his way to the toilet, it smelled fragrant and the small trickling sound of water put him right to sleep.
The next morning they met back up to continue their journey and began conversing.
"Oh man! What a great night's sleep," said the first ant.
"Yes, it was," chimed the second one.
"Are you kidding me? You didn't hear it? The thunder and lightning and rain - if it hadn't been for that log last night... I would've drowned!"
The grass is never greener on one side of the fence than the other. It's how the light shines on the grass from your perspective that makes it look more appealing than it really is.

Sometimes the simplest....

Recently, I had an unusual response that upon reflection brought me profound joy. Oh, we all know the adage - "The simplest things in life are free" "The simplest things in life bring great joy." I'm a very detailed, observant person and always take note, but express my observation in appreciative manner others...and yes even am on the receiving end as well. This however, I did not expect - a detailed, articulate, intellectual, sophisticated, succinct adulation of something I naturally do and think of it. It does wonders for one's ego and selfworth. I thought perhaps, just perhaps that might be beneficial in a myriad of applications... personally and professionally. Not too often as it would be too laborious and cause an over inflated ego. Occasionally though, a nice extra touch. Try it out, but not so much as to create a monster.

Conversation starters...versus outright vulgarity

I know humor for the most part can be easily misconstrued using the written word. But what do you use as a conversation starter?
I try to listen well, be inquisitive, (but not too much), and enjoy the back and forth in a playful manner. I portray up front my frankfuless, honesty and truthfulness. And even that is often misunderstood - what's up with that?
Often times people ask what am I doing here, duh, it's an adult site and obviously I'm here for the same reasons as them. If you want to just date - go to a dating site... not here. If you're single, married or otherwise and looking for a change, hookup or a better right fit... you're here.
Then there is the topic of "bad boys". You probably already learned bad boys are abusive, egotistical and self involved. They are not anykind of relationship material. Naughty on the other hand - is really fun, in & out of the bedroom, furniture, car, or public. Very similar edicts, but totally different ethics. Plus you get the benefits of knowing you'll not be harmed or threatened and treated as an equal with dignity and respect...and the flavor you desire. It's not a dichotomy.
Ladies, what is your preferred method of conversation starters? Gentlemen what methods do you employ?
