For the record: my manmeat is not that sweaty (i wear boxers).

At the risk of losing my status as a macho, sweaty, hunk o' manmeat, I'd like to point out that traditionally, or at least as long as I've been around, the TITTWIS threads have hardly been cesspools of simmering testosterone garnished with piles of dirty gym socks, unwashed dishes, sports magazines and posters of ladies in varying states of dishabille. That said, if the ladies feel that they should have a gynocentric place to chat and hang their lingerie up to dry, I don't think anyone could really object but I fear it would make an ideal target for a certain breed of troll.

I was thinking along those lines myself - and not even about certain breeds of trolls, but more certain breeds of ilx regular posters.

Like when I show up drunk and post that y'all should 'quitcher bitchin and rustle me up some grub' (in French, naturally)?

M. White (Miguelito), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 15:01 (seventeen years ago) link

You forgot the crotch grab.

But yeah, no, not exactly what I mean. I dunno, some things sound like such good ideas at times, and then in the cold, harsh light of day, they just... don't.

Forgive me for not knowing the mechanics of this message board community well, but -- why? Why would there be this huge controversy over something that's as simple as that which you proposed? Does this have any relation to the seeming existence of "golden children" on this forum? You know -- offend the wrong people for whatever stupid reason(s) they propose and instantly encounter hurricane-strength wrath? I say just go with your idea and "fuck the hataz", as the young people of today would put it.

hi everyone,

sam and luna, best wishes to deal with icky family situations. luna, i think you did well to not hit a certain someone upside the head with a frying pan (like people do in cartoons, but never seem to do in real life).

m.white, i was giving you as an example of the kind of guy that could wear a seersucker suit and get away with it. do you have any?

sarah, glad to hear the band is going well, i really hope i can hear you guys sometime when i visit chicago.

yay for huck finally quitting your job!

not sure if i have an opinion about the girl-slanted board alternative. i spend more time on another site at the moment that's mostly girls, and it's generally more polite and stuff, but there can be some really nasty and mean stuff. but you don't get the random noize dudes, either, so that makes things less annoying if you're trying to be even a little serious...

hope everyone is having an ok monday

colette (a2lette), Monday, 7 August 2006 09:41 (seventeen years ago) link

Thank you, Colette, I am having a tolerable Monday. I hope yours is as well. I do, in fact, have a seersucker suit which I tend to wear with white bucks, a Panama hat, and a bow-tie. Whether I 'get away with it' is an enitrely different matter altogether.

M. White (Miguelito), Monday, 7 August 2006 12:52 (seventeen years ago) link

hey colette! haven't seen you around much - how are you?

My mom called me Saturday afternoon. Didn't apologize exactly, but said she missed me, missed Spencer, and just felt terrible about the whole thing. We talked about it a little, but she still doesn't want to hear that Eric isn't the devil here, but I think I got her to admit to as much as I can for now. I took her shopping yesterday, like I do most weekends, and we chatted idly about everything BUT what happened last week, but you know, I think that's okay for now.

The best news she had was that Bryan is leaving for Thailand on Wednesday.

luna (luna.c), Monday, 7 August 2006 19:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm glad you and your mother have been able to make inroads on some kind of reconciliation, luna. I don't know about you, but I personally feel rotten if my mother and I have just had a dust-up, which has happened on occasion because of our dual obstinancies.

How have the rest of you been doing? It feels freeing posting here again under a new username, but awkward because it means I could not make a successful disconnect from ILX. *shrug* It shouldn't matter, really. And it doesn't, not now. I'm perfectly happy just having fun around here the way I should've since the beginning.

And when are we all going to converge for a TITTWIS FAP? Or is that completely off the schedule?

Phoenix Dancing (krushsister), Thursday, 10 August 2006 05:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Phoenix, are we allowed to know who you are/were? Sorry to pry!

Earwig oh! (Mark C), Thursday, 10 August 2006 09:06 (seventeen years ago) link

I would say it's quite guessable :)

Archel (Archel), Thursday, 10 August 2006 09:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes but I always get guesses wrong, then I look foolish. Archie, maybe you can AIM me?

Earwig oh! (Mark C), Thursday, 10 August 2006 10:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Is it not Dee?

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 10 August 2006 10:37 (seventeen years ago) link

Apropos of nothing:

M. White (Miguelito), Thursday, 10 August 2006 14:49 (seventeen years ago) link

I am way too predictable.

Anyway, enough about me -- how about you guys? What's going on with you?

M. White, that video was hilarious. Taking into consideration its entertainment factor, necessary for our gray Thursdays, it was apropos of EVERYTHING.

Hey Dee! (This is Sam. I locked myself out of ILx this week and had to start over.)

My mother's back in the hospital. They let her out last Sat. and then Mon. she had to go back. For one day we thought she had lung cancer until they said "just kidding! that wasn't a tumor." Gee, thanks. They still can't figure out what's wrong with her lungs though.

My mom is on all manner of medicines for all kind of ails. But it's become obvious to us that there is a problem with how she uses her pain medication (OxyC0tin for one).After consulting with other family members, yesterday I called her doctor.

I shared our concerns with her and gave her some examples of the misuse. She said she would "confront" her about it and get the pain mgmt. specialist to look her over and consult.

I tremble. My mom's going to think either my aunt or me started this and then we will be sent to Siberia. Oh well, it needed to be done.

I'm so sorry to hear this, Sam. How much pain is she in?

M. White (Miguelito), Friday, 11 August 2006 13:12 (seventeen years ago) link

who knows. I think once you become physically addicted to stuff like that it's hard to separate the original pain from the withdrawl pain. I don't know. Right now she's in a lot of pain b/c she's all wired up and getting prodded and scanned.

It just felt weird doing that.

Handmaiden of Hip Hop (Molly Jones), Friday, 11 August 2006 13:40 (seventeen years ago) link

Pain management is hard, especially when one's dealing with stuff as addictive as Oxy. It also has a non-negligeable effect of one's system that aggravate underlying ills. My sympathies go out to you and your family.
