TAM5 Skepchick PJ Party!

[Girl 6]

Hi Everyone,

It looks to me that no one has stepped up to organize the Skepchick PJ Party for TAM 5. If I'm wrong, let me know.

Anyway, if that is the case, then I think this must be resolved. I volunteer!

We should probably have it on Friday night. It usually doesn't start until 10 pm.

We will need the security squad, as usual. ;)

G6

[Overman]

Hair Brushing Circles and pillow fights all around.

[tkingdoll]

Will Rebecca be wearing the romper suit again? If yes, count me in. If no, can I borrow it?

[SkepticScott]

I volunteer for the so-called "security" squad yet again. I will be armed with the finest Swiss Chocolate Fudge from Van Otis, in all five varieties.

[kittynh]

it's fun, and if I remember Phil usually does some security also.

This year we are doing a grope check for all you guys that try to sneak in wearing cheap wigs and flannel grannie nighties.

[Terry]

trying to encourage incursion?

[TJ]

it's fun, and if I remember Phil usually does some security also.

This year we are doing a grope check for all you guys that try to sneak in wearing cheap wigs and flannel grannie nighties.

And just how many skepchicks will grope said "imposters"?

[tkingdoll]

it's fun, and if I remember Phil usually does some security also.

This year we are doing a grope check for all you guys that try to sneak in wearing cheap wigs and flannel grannie nighties.

But I can wear a cheap wig and flannel grannie nightie, right?

[scotth]

I volunteer for the so-called "security" squad yet again. I will be armed with the finest Swiss Chocolate Fudge from Van Otis, in all five varieties.

I've got your back for this very dangerous mission.

[Patricio Elicer]

I've got your back for this very dangerous mission.Dangerous indeed!. I think that for security reasons, one guard must stay inside the room. And that guard will be me!.

Teek,

I love your new avatar!

[rebecca]

Will Rebecca be wearing the romper suit again? If yes, count me in. If no, can I borrow it?


Hands off my one-sie!

Also, everyone please note that this year's PJ Party is doubling as a bachelorette party for our dear Russian tyrant/princess, Renata! So bring your inflatable penises and whatnot.

[mumchup]

Can I wear my Monty Python pajamas?
(Happy Birthday Rebecca)

[kittynh]

yes, and grannie flannel nighties ok also.

But to keep security happy we have to have some sexy Victoria Secret stuff.

Phil likes to wear that stuff.

[SkepticScott]

Should I mention that last year I showed Girl6 how to do something with one hand, and also the "Double Reverse", or would that cause too much interest in crashing the party?:blush:

[The Bad Astronomer]

Phil, or Phil? That's so confusing.

Anyway...

Indoor Security Guard volunteering for duty!

If Renata is getting married, it would be rude of her to throw me out. Why? Don't ask: I'm an authority figure, and you're not supposed to question me.

[SpeederA]

it's fun, and if I remember Phil usually does some security also.

This year we are doing a grope check for all you guys that try to sneak in wearing cheap wigs and flannel grannie nighties.

So a good wig, shear nighties and an *ahem* "tuck back" will get me through the door? :D

:duck:

[TobiasTheViking]

it's fun, and if I remember Phil usually does some security also.

This year we are doing a grope check for all you guys that try to sneak in wearing cheap wigs and flannel grannie nighties.

I promise that i will NOT try to gain access wearing a cheap wig.

how is that for you?

[Boo]

:duck:

:covereyes :jaw-dropp

[Zygar]

My wigs are not cheap!

[Geek Goddess]

does this mean I have to acquire pajamas?

[Kitten]

Hands off my one-sie!

Also, everyone please note that this year's PJ Party is doubling as a bachelorette party for our dear Russian tyrant/princess, Renata! So bring your inflatable penises and whatnot.

As long as we don't behave like all of those bachelorette parties we ran into the other night at the drag show... dear lord...

Hurray for Renata, though!

[elaine]

TAM virgin here.

Pajama party?

[Luciana]

What are bacherolette parties like in the US? What does it entail?

Yes, elaine, it's been a tradition since TAM2. Girls only, of course. Boys keep trying to break in, so we hire bodyguards (never short of volunteers, see) to keep the other boys outside.

Bachelorette parties? Varies, depending on whether or not there are strippers.

So, what happens at the PJ parties. Do I actually need to buy PJ's? PM if this is a top secret kinda' thing.

[Paul C. Anagnostopoulos]

I was the Chief Security Officer last year. You can't organize this thing without my input. I hereby appoint all you guys Chief Security Guards.


does this mean I have to acquire pajamas?
I was asking myself the same thing. I mean about myself, not you. Although, come to think of it, what does my ownership of pajamas or lack thereof have to do with anything?

~~ Paul

[SkepticScott]

we hire bodyguards to keep the other boys outside.With the emphasis on keeping other guys out, while we sneak in ourselves.

I hereby appoint all you guys Chief Security Guards.Thank you for the promotion Paul. :)

[Luciana]

Bachelorette parties? Varies, depending on whether or not there are strippers.

Ooooooohhh....

Listen, guys, pajamas are optional.

[rebecca]

Oh. There will be strippers. Bachelorette parties in the US always have strippers. Plus usually booze.

[Badger]

Can one volunteer to be a security guard who also strips?

[belinda]

Can one volunteer to be a security guard who also strips?

Well you could be dressed as a security guard and then strip tease down.....

[kittynh]

we so need stripper music.

[kittynh]

can Moe rent us one of those portable poles?

[Zygar]

Sounds like I need a security guard costume.

[HawkeyeMD]

Can I come this year? I didn't know about it last year. I was bummed.

I promise I have all the necessary equipment to qualify to attend. The BA can check if you're not sure. I met him last year and he's cute. ;)

[Girl 6]

Can one volunteer to be a security guard who also strips?

Ooooo... :D

And, about that pole... Well... I did take a few classes. ;)

G6

[Soapy Sam]

Evidences?
How do you say "My Hovercraft is full of eels" in Polish?

[The Bad Astronomer]

Finally, someone of taste.

... but I better leave it there. 8)

[Badger]

Ooooo... :D

And, about that pole... Well... I did take a few classes. ;)

G6

And with that, I'm off to check on the price of tearaway pants, and dig up my "Yellow" CD to start practicing.

[SkepticScott]

Listen, guys, pajamas are optional.Coed Naked PJ Party with Grope Checks. :D I'm glad I was the first to volunteer for "security" duty.

The Riviera will never recover from this! :jaw-dropp

[kittynh]

one problem, we need a room where we can make a little noise!!!

I have found that walking around any Vegas hotel in your pjs is not a problem.

We had some issues with "making too much noise" Huh?

[mumchup]

How about if it's in whichever skepchick room is most centrally located within the TAM block? Then all the nearby rooms will be least likely to complain to management.

[Girl 6]

Well, in that case, perhaps we need to have it in the room that we usually have the Forum Party.

G6

[mumchup]

Then we can have more chocolate and port, like the forum party too!?

[Jas]

Oh, I missed last year's. I'm not sure what I was doing, but it probably wasn't nearly as fun as the PJ Party.

[kittykatkarma]

The chocolate and port, PJ pole dancing, strip party?
Just like the forum party but better?

[elaine]

The chocolate and port, PJ pole dancing, strip party?

Don't know anything about pole dancing, but I am taking Belly Dance lessons.

[SkepticScott]

Do any of the skepchicks attending know CPR? This party might be too much for the security force and we may need resuscitation!

[elaine]

[Geek Goddess]

Card-carrying...

[SkepticScott]

Wow, I might have to be "overcome" and "revived" multiple times, just to give all the skepchicks who are qualified a turn.:crowded:

[elaine]

Looks like we've got a fainter, girls. Does someone have an oxygen tank?

[SkepticScott]

Does someone have an oxygen tank?No oxygen, just mouth-to-mouth. :D

[elaine]

Uh, huh....any O2 tanks out there?

[Geek Goddess]

Wow, I might have to be "overcome" and "revived" multiple times, just to give all the skepchicks who are qualified a turn.:crowded:


The dirty little secret about CPR that they don't usually tell you in class, is that most revived people throw up, sometimes before they're actually revived. As a friend of mine who received 'Breath of Life" awards twice says "It takes a real strong stomach"

So don't hold your breath....too long. Unless you're faking it. Then, OK.

[elaine]

...and don't forget breath mints.

[SkepticScott]

The dirty little secret about CPR that they don't usually tell you in classI was told it when I took the class. I've let my certification lapse for far too long. :(

[SpeederA]

That's okay. I'm rescue diver certified which includes CPR. I'll handle Scott. ;) :D

(one reason to always carry one of these on you: http://www.cpr-savers.com/Industrials/Cpr%20prod/cprkeychain.html (http://www.cpr-savers.com/Industrials/Cpr%20prod/cprkeychain.html))

[Zygar]

Don't know anything about pole dancing, but I am taking Belly Dance lessons.

I'm not sure I should admit this, but I am actually a fair belly dancer.

[elaine]

Then you're much better than me. I'm hoping my coordination will get better.

[Paul C. Anagnostopoulos]

I don't think there was enough face time with the security guards last year. I suggest that the first half hour of the PJ party involve face time with in-room security guards. Anyway, it's not right that we don't check the room for possible security violations. Then the guards can move out to the hall and the salacious portion of the evening can commence.

~~ Paul

[Hamradioguy]

I was told it when I took the class. I've let my certification lapse for far too long. :(
Current CPR card here, FWIW. I was a Security Guard last time. Endless hours in the hallway with Paul, then a door opened, several hands reached out, I was dragged onto a bed, a camera flashed (anyone have that pix?), and I was thrown back out in the hallway once again. Can't remember a thing beyond this, but I am sure it was my TAM4 highlight.

[CriticalThanking]

I'm not sure I should admit this, but I am actually a fair belly dancer.Um... so what is an unfair belly dancer? :confused:

[elaine]

[SkepticScott]

...then a door opened, several hands reached out, I was dragged onto a bed, a camera flashed (anyone have that pix?), and I was thrown back out in the hallway once again. Can't remember a thing beyond this...That sounds a lot like an alien abduction experience. Have you tried "recovering" your memories with hypnosis? :)

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I don't know CPR. Since I don't like most people, I have no interest in reviving them.

[MLynn]

I will really enjoy the PJ party like the past two years - I may be a little late if I go to see Penn & Teller, but I will be there!

[kittynh]

MLynn you had better be there! don't let some lucky machine keep you late!

I need you to show me video poker. And play for me. And win me some money....

Oh well....just be there!!!

[Girl 6]

Okay... looks like this is coming together somewhat. ;)

Anyway, I have another idea not having to do with this. I'll probably post it once I get it all worked out in my head.

In the meantime, I think we *may* have to see about using the same room that we will use for the Forum Party. I don't want to exclude any of the women in the forum. The more, the merrier!

G6

[HawkeyeMD]

Finally, someone of taste.

... but I better leave it there. 8)

Because...you're concerned about posting something politically incorrect?

:eye-poppi

Oh...kay.

FWIW, I'm not only CPR certified, I have access to medical supply cabinets.

Surgi-Lube, anyone? ;)

[Jas]

according to a friend who's been taking lessons for a year? A newbie who can already do belly rolls.

Aren't belly rolls a bad thing?

[SkepticScott]

I have access to medical supply cabinets.I won't be worried unless you show up with a friend, both wearing blue gloves. :)

[SpeederA]

Works for me ;)

[VPescado]

SkeptiKhatt intends to go to the party, so I suppose I might as well volunteer for the so-called security duty.

[Zygar]

I volunteer for security. It is my "duty" to the skepchicks to ensure they are "secured".

[Boo]

I'm guessing the flannel nighty is not the right style of PJ's for this party. Time to go shopping!

Ahhh, well it was last year. At least I THINK it was. My recollection of what PJs were worn is based on a very brief and somewhat confusing entry into the room followed by a rapid exit.

You get to stay longer the happier you make the ladies. Trust me on this. ;)

I'm not sure how i would be as security.. But i could bring some hair you could braid and play with.. would that be interesting?

I volunteer for security. So I suppose this would be a chicks-only party? Or is there a single token guy?

Because I know that things can get really wild when a guy shows up at a girl PJ party... like a pizza delivery guy or something.

I saw a documentary about that once....I think it was a documentary. I mean...it was on one of the higher channels.

[DiskoVilante]

Maybe you want to think this over. Security dudes mostly get to stand in the hall listening to laughter and merryment from behind a closed and locked door for hours and hours on end.

[DiskoVilante]

Wait wait wait!

I want to be a pillow!!!

[a.real.girl]

So, this forum seems pretty friendly, but it's in my nature to ask... are newbies welcome too?

This sounds so very fun, but I'm kind of new, so I don't want to crash.

[supercorgi]

:D So, this forum seems pretty friendly, but it's in my nature to ask... are newbies welcome too?

If you're female and a skeptic then you're not crashing. It's only those nasty boys with their cooties that try to crash. :D

It's only those nasty boys with their cooties that try to crash. :DSome of us boys have crashing down to a fine art. Prepare to be "secured". ;)

[a.real.girl]

OK, I'm female, a skeptic, and ready to be "secured."

Now I just need PJs, and I think maybe chocolate. (Can I bring cheesecake cupcakes instead? I don't really like chocolate...)

[articulett]

And just how many skepchicks will grope said "imposters"?

Since no one else is volunteering, I guess I can do the dirtywork...

[SkepticScott]

Since no one else is volunteering, I guess I can do the dirtywork...This is going to be fun. I've only been by one skepchick at a TAM before (MoeFaux, of course). I hope no one has cold hands. ;)

Hey, where is MoeFaux? Anyone heard from her?

[SkepticScott]

TJ, AFAIK she recently moved to LA. I don't know when she last posted here. :(

[TJ]

I'm very sad; I was looking forward to seeing her again.

Just don't wear them to the lectures. That would be ... distracting, I think.

Just don't wear them to the lectures. That would be ... distracting, I think.

No, wear them.
It'll be a good test of your discipline. :p

[Antiquehunter]

I need a Skepchick volunteer.

Long story short, at the Poker Tournament this year, the Riviera is unable to help us out in our usual $10 a person collection for the JRef. Something about gaming regulations.

We need an enthusiastic, persuasive skepchick to attend the poker tournament (as a non-player) to collect the recommended $10 donation to the JRef from each player. They need to be stealthy, as we don't want to interrupt the play of the hands, but also wish to ensure we collect something for the JRef as part of the event.

Your time commitment would be 1730 on Thursday the 18th, for about 30 minutes max.

Volunteers?

-AH.

[Beanbag]

Pity I'm not going, 'cause I have a real money-making idea: SkepChicks Gone Wild, a video documentary of the TAM 5 PJ party, available on DVD. Say, $19.95 per copy, proceeds evenly divided between JREF and SkepChick.org. You know how well the calendars do -- just think what a video would pull in $$$-wise. To make sure the released version is acceptable to all parties involved, I would nominate Rebecca to have the final yea/nay say on editing choices.

But, alas, I won't be there, so I can't volunteer my services (and equipment) as the official PJ Party Videographer. Pity, 'cause I got some really nice equipment.

Please put me in backup position - I would love to do, but am not sure how this all works. The last time I was in vegas and was hanging around the craps table, I asked an innocent question - the guy threw craps (as I asked about) and did not pay me a compliment. I was right (statistically speaking). ;)

I have an idea - :eye-poppi
(1) I could wear a t-shirt with a prompt emblazoned across my guns - then I wouldn't have to say anything, that might get me in trouble.
(2) I could give out pre-printed thank you cards, promising something skeptical and that way know who gave & who didn't (as long as they displayed the card, and then I wouldn't bother those who did, and could bring pressure on those who didn't - I CAN give looks!

What do you think? I would of course, supply the guns.

People are just signing themselves up for security duty as if it's some kind of open hiring season or something. Not a single one of you have officially applied to me for these positions. What nerve!

Okay, you're all hired.

You may a good point. Not one of the applicants have mentioned their price for example. You can't expect to be PJ-party security for free.


(And in case you weren't quite clear on the concept, that means you have to pay to be security, not get paid).

[SkepticScott]

(And in case you weren't quite clear on the concept, that means you have to pay to be security, not get paid).I pay the skepchicks in chocolate. This year there will be more skepchicks at the party (mmmmm, yes :D), so I'll have to bring more chocolate.

The best present ever! And to think, all I asked for was all 3 seasons of Arrested Development.

If you are enthusiastically menacing, this will be purrrrrrrfect.

Yes - 1730h = 5:30pm in Anglais.

Thanks for volunteering!

Okay, people...

This party looks to be rocking and rolling! My roommate can't make it to TAM. :(

However, this means that the room is larger for you skepchicks! The party will be in my room. I'll be at the registration desk all of Thursday. So, make sure to stop by and introduce yourself and let me know you'll be at the party. I'll let you know where my room is (I have no idea right now). I'll have my iPod and speakers all set up for some background music.

I think we just need ice, cups, napkins, drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic), snacks (cookies, chips). Someone definitely needs to bring a camera.

I was thinking of baking my world-famous chocolate-chip cookies, but that might be a pain to carry onboard in the plane. If not, I'll get something.

Please let me know what you want to contribute to the party. But more importantly, BE THERE and REPRESENT!

G6

[SkepticScott]

Someone definitely needs to bring a camera.That would be me. :D

Please let me know what you want to contribute to the party.That would be "me" again. :D

With a name like "Anagnostopoulos", how do you feel about baklava? (I only use pistachios because I don't like walnuts.)

[a.real.girl]

I'll bring mini-cheesecakes in five fab flavors.

[Electric Monk]

Hey, where is MoeFaux? Anyone heard from her?

She's posted on another board that she'll be at TAM this year, ready to rock.

(Dangit why doesn't anyone ever miss me.... ;) )

[MoeFaux]

I wasn't sure if I'd make it, but under the guise of "work" I'll be attending and having fun. I'll arrive in town on the 18th and will try to cram in as much socializing as possible.

Once again, I'm looking forward to hugs, chocolate, and good Scotch, which I discovered last year. As for contributions, I'll probably be bringing beer. Cheers!

[SkepticScott]

Hi Moefaux! You just made crashing the party 100% more interesting! :bgrin:

[SpeederA]

Would offerings of fermented beverages and royal treatment be considered valid payment for a security job? Or will I have to work as a man slave? :D

WOO HOO!!

Moe Faux! I have a surprise for you! :D

[DiskoVilante]

What exactly goes on in the PJ Party? I'm rather confused...

[Sin City Teacher]

I just got a new wig. Will my goatee give me away?

[a.real.girl]

anyone know what room number this is? we're going to the shows, but want to come by after. Also, I have mini-cheesecakes I could drop off before the shows.

Someone let me know. My cell is 858-336-3462

[Mercutio]

If we can trust the US mail, Moe has one for you, too...

[DiskoVilante]

Yeah, she did have a surprise. My friend got a bit too :hypnotize:faint:

[SkepticScott]

I had fun crashing the party in my PJs. I hope the ladies did too. :D

[articulett]

Those were not your PJ's--and we only let you in because you brought appropriate offerings.

And, plus, you seemed so official being Randi's right hand man and all--we didn't feel it would be right to turn you away--

[ottle]

I had so much fun doing the "NONE SHALL PASS... without an offering" routine :)

Great party, ladies :)

[ponderingturtle]

Let me be the first to say that this would be much better as a picture thread.

[SkepticScott]

Those were not your PJ'sOK, I'll admit that the "I <heart> skepchicks" is not the top I sleep in.
And, plus, you seemed so official being Randi's right hand man and all--we didn't feel it would be right to turn you away--LOL! I knew all that work I did was good for something.

Anyone can post any picture they took of me at the party. If you have any blackmail-quality pictures of me, could I have a couple 8x10 glossies please?

[ottle]

Yeah, where are the PJ party pics? I didn't bring my camera for that one...

[articulett]

Someone got an x-rated picture of Tobias the commie, as I recall--

Is he circumcised or uncircumcised?--the world is waiting with bated breath.

That reminds me, I wonder who the highest government official that is a non-theist is. Lori Lipman Brown says they will release the results in February. I just hope it isn't Dick Cheney--that is a very unimpressive dick and one that should stay hidden.

Weren't you sitting next to me when he dropped trou? I know I got a good look :jaw-dropp (my eyes! my eyes!). How did you miss that?

[articulett]

Oh, I did not miss it, I assure you. I commented that the rug matched the drapes, if you recall. I was just trying to drum up some mystery and intrigue--Who was the woman with the camera that got the extreme close up?...and is it of higher quality than the one on Tobias' cell phone pic.?(you know, --the one where it's wearing a sort of "chef's hat" made of a toilet paper roll...it's kind of hard to understand the picture at first...)

But the real mystery, of course, is who made the prototype mold for the chocolate/macaroon party favors? The guy who brought them was a gem--I hear he has a church on his property and he's going to pose in next years skepdude calender on his motorcycle on his altar. That is simply heathenly. I look forward to it, of course--I hope his flying pig tattoo shows.

[Zygar]

Despite his best efforts, I never let Toby expose himself to me. Perhaps next year. ;)

That would be Grayman, I believe! Whose eyes I did not get to gaze into over dinner, thanks to Southwest Airlines and the FSM's handling of the weather in Texas.

[Mattfn]

There was a decided lack of security this year.....perhaps that accounted for the interlopers.....and possibly some of the behavior! I did not get to know the woman in the burka....my appologies dear.

And a smack up side the head for the skepdudes who thought they could stay without any bribes or skills to offer....tsk, tsk!

Mattfn :moose:

Speaking for the skepdudes who broke through the security, we have skills. We needed proper inspiration to use them. And none was provided.












I wonder if they will buy that?

I wonder if there is a bomb shelter strong enough to protect me from the flying rocks......

[articulett]

Your loss.

I hope you got one of his party favors. If not, he owes you. And if he's out, just ask him to provide a similar chocolate flavored treat.

[articulett]

He carries around pix on his cell phone, you know...

You may have a hard time escaping. Fortunately it takes some careful study to understand what exactly you are looking at due to perspective, costuming, etc.

Oh it's my fault. I was supposed to do the grope check, but Toby was too eager--and I didn't think it would be polite to grope the person in the Burka, and Scott had chocolate...raspberry chocolate...and Grayman had some very artistic chocolate...and the Friendly Atheist guy pointed out that he WAS chocolate--

And there were the toys...the "perfect man doll"...the life-sized Randi doll (okay it was a little smaller than life size...)

So you see my dilemma. Now that I understand the basic sneakiness of the skepdudes, I promise to do a better job next year. It's really Scott's fault, I think--I just presumed he was there for some official reason, and it didn't feel right to do a grope check on Randi's right hand man--plus his chocolates contained alcohol--and then Toby brought those spermatazoid thingies filled with Baileys cream...

Mistakes were made. What can I say. It won't happen again.

[FriendlyAtheist]

Friendly Atheist guy pointed out that he WAS chocolate

Yes. Yes I am. And the party was a blast :) Thanks for not kicking me out!

[Geek Goddess]

Yes, one of the disappointments (but they are few). But he graciously gave me not only a chocolate-covered treat, but also a pigasus cookie!

[SkeptiKilt]

Inspired by Grayman's Pigasus tat, it struck me the other day that the expression "When monkeys fly out of my butt" has definite tattoo possibilities.

Please don't post a picture.

[articulett]

Now that I've seen Toby's genitals, I think I'm fine with seeing tattoo monkeys fly out of skeptikilt's butt. He wouldn't have to drop trou even--just lift the kilt

--really Greek Goddess...you need to learn to live a little. :) What good is it to be a skeptic if you can't enjoy some good clean irreverent and bawdy fun?

If I promised to? ;)--plus his chocolates contained alcoholNo they didn't!It won't happen again.It had better not!

[LostAngeles]

[SkeptiKhatt]

--and I didn't think it would be polite to grope the person in the Burka,

Just as well. The person in the burka was my boyfriend, VPescado...so I'm a bit particular about who gropes him. (I simply introduced him as "Fatima".) You can thank Oak for the burka, by the way. Hopefully this stunt doesn't get me barred from all subsequent SkepChick parties.

[Geek Goddess]

Please do post a picture.

Let me clarify. I would be glad to see a picture of Skeptikilt's butt, I didn't I didn't want to see the actual exit point ;)

GG, did you hear Grayman's suggestion for me in the next skepdude calendar? A variation on this (http://www.glphoto.com/images/marilyn_monroe%20seven_year_itch_1954.jpg).

I was thinking of three or four small flying monkeys sorta swirling out over the right hip and up the back, with diminishing size to give the impression of distance. Hmmmm. Maybe it needs five or six.

[DiskoVilante]

@Skeptikilt: A variation of that would be excellent.

[TobiasTheViking]

Please do post a picture.
agreed.

[spiteme]

Girl 6 (and anyone else involved) thank you for the great evening.

[TobiasTheViking]

i want the pictures of meeeeee :cry1(post on the inet)

[articulett]

@Skeptikilt: A variation of that would be excellent.

I agree. And GC, if a guy has enough mass in his ass, I don't think the exit point should be visible--especially when said ass is decorated with flying monkeys. It would take a frightening camera angel to achieve such a picture, and although we have an intrepid group here, I'm not sure anyone is that intrepid.

Well, there's Toby...

[TobiasTheViking]

that there is.. now provide pictures or there will be no more grobing.

[HawkeyeMD]

that there is.. now provide pictures or there will be no more grobing.

But will there be mome raths? I'm assuming grobing is the future tense of 'grabe'.

Sorry, dude. I took the picture, but it wasn't my camera. Though I think the guy it belonged to may be suffering from brain meltdown.

...oh, and sorry if I said anything untoward. I didn't realize until after the conference that you were gay.

[TobiasTheViking]

groping then.

I'M NOT GAY

If i had been gay would i have given you the looks i did?

[exarch]

If you'd been straight, would you have given me the looks you did?

Yes, but you are special. ;)

You gave her those looks to try to hide the fact that you are gay.

[TobiasTheViking]

no, i gave her those looks because she has huge... HUGE... tracks of land.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Really? How did I miss meeting her? :mad:

[spiteme]

She was avoiding you.
