At the risk of being pedantic, Kanye, if you were 'illin' in early 80's hip hop speak you'd actually be alright, good, even.
Tchoh, you're the kind of idiot who'd spell zylophone wrong and then carry on as if nothing had happened.

I don't catch colds. Does anyone else not catch colds? I'm expecting to die of a common cold one day when I actually do catch one.

I don't catch cold either. I put it down to regularly taking cod liver oil for the past 16 years. Changed my life that stuff has.
 
Posted by mart (Member # 32) on :
 
I very rarely catch one, but when I do, I don't die. So, really, I'll probably live for ever.

mcdirts,

Thanks for your note, sorry for not getting back to you sooner. This blasted illness is draining my will and ability to communicate. Anyway, I wanted to thank you for you recent comments on my recent post on a recent thread re: illness ("Argh! I've got a cold."). Specifically, you identified that I'd misused the phrase illin'. I thought it only polite to expand on this. Louise (who sends her love and thanks you for helping her with her CV) and I often use the phrase illin' in this incorrect way when communicating health complications to each other. For us, the mis-appropriation is humorous. Looking back at my previous post, I can see how readers who aren't as intimately involved in our relationship as we are might think that I've accidentally mis-used the phrase. I just wanted to clear this up, and to assure you and other readers that any garbled golden-age hip hop vernacular on my part was entire deliberate, albeit, poorly contextualised. I thank you for taking the time to communicate your concerns to me, and I will double my efforts to prevent these anomalies from slipping through in the future. Thanks.

Thanks again.

Steve

More news as we get it.

There was a good update from CiH's sister a few days back when she mentioned that she had just finished kneading her breasts or somesuch. I was going to write something along the lines of 'Need any help with that' and then I thought it was a teensy-weensy bit creepy, especially as I don't really know her that well. So instead I've posted about it on here, which still feels a bit wrong, but not quite as bad. Even so, I should probably delete this rather than hit add reply. I'll take a couple of minutes to mull it over.

Back to topic, I had a little cold last week. Just a sore throat for one night and one day, then it kind of petered out, left me with an occasional cough and a slightly snottier than usual nose.

Overall I'm pretty happy with the way it played out.


Anyway, going back off topic for a moment, what's the deal with the different usernames. I'm assuming you're using different computers?

So like,
Kanye West = Home desktop PC
Jimmy Bignuts = Laptop
McDirts = Work PC

For some reason I always assumed that Benway was the younger brother. It's interesting now to think of him as an older sibling. How his younger brother probably looks up to him, and looks to Benway to show him how to live. How Benway is probably fiercely protective of him, offer him advice whenever he needs it and probably goes through life with a constant awareness that he needs to set an admirable example for his younger sibling.

Yes, it makes perfect sense that he would be able to swap between his home desktop PC and his work PC.

yes, it's like that, only, I don't really have anything to do with him, we don't really get on, and when we are forced into the same place we tend to try and ignore each other. Communication is usually just a series of sarcastic, cutting remarks, as is the way with my family. I don't really know anything about him, other than that he now goes by his middle name, he likes photography and porn stars, and went through many of the same emotional disturbances as I did due to the same high levels of drug taking during the 16 - 25 years.

But all that's probably tempered with the tremendous sense of respect and admiration that he has for you, and the profound level of caring that you have for him, right? And even when you're not talking to each other you're still both aware of an unbreakable bond forged by shared experiences like the time he saw a dead fox in the woods and some bigger boys were ridiculing him for it and you came and made them fuck off, and maybe you had a go at him for being weak but only because you knew it would be bad for him to keep showing his sensitivity? That kind of thing?

I mean, it may seem like you're alienated from each other, but presumably there'll be a big family event like Christmas or a wedding where all the shit comes out and it looks like the old wounds will never heal, until all the crap has been thrown and you realise that all that's left is a filial love and respect that was always there, even though you couldn't see it under all the garbage? Yeah?

chris brown, eh? I always knew it. I said to them, when he was picking up his Grammy. I said, look into his eyes. Tell me there isn't some tragedy behind that glass. Tell me that his girl, whoever she may be, isn't going to feel pain at his hand. And they wouldn't listen. They said I was a fool, that I was crazy, and that I should shut the hell up and sit the hell down. That I was just jealous, hating on a brother because it was his turn in the spotlight, and that mine was gone. I tried to warn them. Well. Now riri is all messed up. That beautiful face, all punched out of line. Probably never look the same again. She's lying in a hospital bed, hurting real bad, and I saw it coming, and I told them. It's that darkness, that family pain that I could see behind his eyes. You can't hide that family pain. It gets passed on, father to son, mother to daughter, and lays there. It lays there like a cat, waiting. Very very still. You may not even see it unless you look for it. But I saw it, and I warned them. And I tell them now, that it's all on them. It's all on them, because I told them to watch out for this boy, and they wouldn't listen. If I wasn't so sad for the girl, I'd be saying 'I told you so' right about now. A sad, sad story.

Posted by Jimmy Big Nuts (Member # 895) on :
 
that's exactly how it went. Exactly.
 
Posted by Thorn Davis (Member # 65) on :
 
Hey man! I went to the Doctor today too! We can be the doctor gang! I'll work out a special handshake.

Last time I went to the doctor's was about 13 years ago, so I couldn't really remember what to expect. Plus the thing I was going in for was the fact that I, like, throw up every morning and have done for the last few months. At first I joked nthat it was sympathetic morning sickness, and then I started to think that maybe if you keep throwing up every morning, and you're not pregnant - and can't be because you're a dude - then maybe that was a sign that something had gone badly wrong. And then my hearing went in my left ear, and then my left eye swelled up and stuck shut and it sort of seemed a bit like my body was shutting down and I wondered how long I could blithely continue my policy of never going to the doctor. Apparently the eye and ear thing are symptoms of my cold, and the puking thing is stress-related. I thought it couldn't be as, while I was kind of wigging out towards the end of last year, I feel a bit more settled in now. He said, yeah that's how it works, though, that I was gutfucked when I was stress and because there's always acid in the stomach, it's not getting a chance to heal so take these and you'll "miraculously feel better. Your whole quality of life will improve". Those were his exact words and that's really what you want to hear when you go to the doctor's, especially as I was worried that I had stomach cancer, or a brain parasite, or both.

Sorry about the AIDS Benway - but you can console yourself with the knowledge that things worked out well for me.

Posted by Jimmy Big Nuts (Member # 895) on :
 
but yeah the AIDS diagnosis is pretty devastating for all of us. The thing that many people don't realise, it's not just me who suffers, but all of my family and loved ones. It's a tough time for us all, and we have to support each other more than ever. In many ways, it's going to bring us all closer to together, and we'll find ourselves saying the things that otherwise we may have never said. Luckily, there are many charities and groups out there who can help us to deal with the situation, and shoulder some of the burden. While it's obviously a frightening time, I'm trying to stay positive, and be thankful for the things I do have.

I'm just going to take one day at a time, take things easy, and keep smiling. After all, if you can't laugh about it, you may as well be dead already. And the funny thing is, since my diagnosis this morning, I feel more alive than ever [Smile]

I got my AIDS from a bad blood transfusion in the 80s, after I had an accident on the Back the Future Ride at Universal Studios. It's been dormant for while, and has only gone full blown in the last couple of months. Some of you may want to get yourselves checked out. Ringo especially.

I wasn't accusing you of gloating, Ringo. I just saw the headlines and thought "Oh. Loads of people are going to laugh about that and say she deserves it". She's probably quite aware of it, too. I dunno. It was like it was all this big fun joke, where she got famous and rich for being a fucking idiot, and everyone else ridiculed her, and got to feel superior and everyone got what they wanted from the whole thing and then she got cancer and it was like "hurm, it doesn't seem that funny anymore, now she's stopped putting wine bottles up her clunge and is standing on morning TV crying, holding clumps of her own hair and worrying about who's going to look after her children". And it seemed like there were some people who couldn't deal with the change in tone, and carried on mocking her as if she'd gotten the name of a town wrong, or something else stupid, but it didn't quite work because it'd all gone dark. I suppose, in a way it's her fault the joke's ruined, the selfish bitch.

Actually I think you'll find that Kinga was the one who put the wine bottle up her vagina. Jade was the one who got her kebab out in a game of strip something or other. An expression that shocked the nation although it was later discovered that she was referring to the fold of fat on her midrift.

That's terrible, I'm sorry to hear that. Was it sudden?

No, he'd be battling the AIDS for years. We thought he was doing well but last month he really started to go downhill. It's awful, when you try to be there for someone and you can see them just gradually falling apart. I mean, how do you even comfort someone when you both know they'll be dead within weeks?

Ringo you gormless idiot, that would work with any terminal disease apart from AIDS. Surely the last thing you want to bring up in the opening stages of a seduction is dying slowly and horribly from a sexually transmitted disease.

Well, I'd have thought that in this day and age people are pretty clued up on the AIDS thing, and a modern girl would just be impressed that you're comfortable talking about such a sensitive issue.

Obviously if she recoiled in horror, you'd have to quickly reassure her that he got the AIDS from a botched blood transfusion.

Also, with some non-contagious illnesses, you can claim that it's you who's suffering from them. You wouldn't even have to be subtle about it "Come on, I'll be dead in a month. Just put it in your mouth. Oh don't be a selfish c*nt. I'm dying and you're worried about what your husband will think. Yeah, that's it. Open wide. It's the least you can do."

That's not too bad. I remember I was dating this girl right after my divorce...a skiiny, aging punk girl. After a hanful of dates we got to talking about this very subject, so I asked her how many partners she had had. She thought about it for an uncomfortably long amount of time and finally looked me in the eyes and said I don't know...maybe 60 or 70. I nearly feel off my chair. I mean, wtf? She was in her early 30's at the time...so assuming she became active at the age of 16, that's roughly 3.5 different men per year. At what point does the word whore enter into things?
 
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
 
It depends really on what you count as a partner though doesn't it. There have been loads and loads of girls I've messed around with, to one degree or another, but haven't actually had penetrative sex with. So for me the figure could be in the 20s, or a lot higher. Depending.
 
Posted by Thorn Davis (Member # 65) on :
 
When they do it for money, I think.

I dunno. I'd cheerfully have slept with 70 women if the opportunities had arisen. I just never really got into trying to get laid. I'd always just wait for sex to land on me, without me having to put much effort in, which maybe happens more often for girls than for guys.

I'm counting only penetrative sex, here. You've got to have a system, or it just descends into chaos.

Vaginal or anal, I reckon. I'd say 'vaginal only', but if you banged a chick in the ass without ever going for the crotch then fair play - that almost deserves some kind of bonus score. Blow jobs don't count, everyone knows that. You have to have been allowed access to the most closely guarded orifices. That's what it's all about.

Does dinner and a movie count as taking money for it?

I wondered the same thing...if she was just counting guys she messed around with or encounters that involved actual penetration. She was talking penetration. I never bothered to ask what the number would be if we were just talking about messing around.

No, unless she would exchange sex for dinner and a movie, with literally anyone. In which case the number would probably be higher than 70.
 
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
 
By a quick count, for me it's 12 that I can remember. Probably more. But it was pretty surprising to think about how many girls I've had very in-depth experiences with, without actually, y'know, fulfilling the criteria.

It does mean I've technically had more cars than women. Not in a sxual way, of course, that would be wrong.

I met a few of these guys...after we had stopped dating. I suspect she would have done it with literally anyone. She wasn't a big fan of film though, which is what probably kept her number down.

Regardless of the criteria, I would never be able to include one of the most uncategorisable relationships I've ever had, which was with a girl called Heather at uni. For three years we hung out, skipped lectures to go on drinking benders, went to gigs, exchanged course notes and all the rest of it but never explicitly broached the subject of becoming an item until right at the end of the final year where things culminated in each of us drunkenly confessing that we'd had the hots for the other since day fricken one, but other boyfriends and girlfriends had gotten in the way and then a crazy, heart pounding snog and a promise to work it out in the next few days. I remember running home and writing a note to all my housemates and putting them under people's doors saying "I snogged Heather!!!" The next few days came, and we were sat in a rock club, and I was dead excited (and drunk, obv) at finally being able to sort things out and she said "So what do you think then? What should we do?" and I sat down my drink, thinking 'OK! This is it! This thing that's caused me tears and heartache and yearning for three years is all going to come to a happy ending! I can't believe it!'. So she's sitting there waiting for my verdict and I open my mouth and say "I think we should just stay friends". Her face dropped, mouth open, eyes down, and I just carried on speaking, but with a kind of out-of-body moment where I was simultaneously saying "I can't see this working" and the real me was yelling 'WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SAYING!!!'. Then I finished my drink and went home in a daze. I never really worked out why I did that, except that she always had this entourage of guys trying to get into her knickers and I didn't really want to demean myself by becoming one of them. That's the best explanation I can think of, but mainly I reckon it's Sam Beckett's fault.
 
Posted by ralph (Member # 773) on :
 
Wow Thorn. I was sure that story was going to have a happy ending. [Frown]

But you did remind me of a story of my own...one that took place way back in the early 80's. I had a huge crush on this girl Lisa during my senior year of High School. I never acted on it, as Lisa (as well as all girls during that awkward period of my life) was out of my league.
I figured I'd never see her again after high school, but fate decided otherwise. About four years later, she took a temp job at the company I was working for. All the pain and longing came flooding back and, being four years older and slightly more confident, I asked her out. To my amazement she accepted, and we began seeing eavh other after work a few times a week. After about a month of this, I got a phone call at work. From her future husband. Who told me that if I didn't stop seeing her he'd kill me. Seems she had been having some relationship woes and essentially used me as a (very willing) pawn in her little game of revenge against her boyfriend. So I did what any decent man would do -- after work one night I pounded down a few six packs, drove over to his house, and beat the **** out of him for threatening my life. The judge let me go with a warning, as up to that point in my life I had no other incidents of violence of that nature. [Embarrassed]

Well, it has a happy ending insofar as I fell in love with someone else and got married. I can't see how a relationship with Heather could have ended in anything other than bitter shame and disaster. It's mainly notable for being a moment where I acted completely against my conscious will, and have never really understood how it happened. It was like some part of me that I've never heard from before or since, woke up and took over to stop me from doing something that would cause me misery in the long run.

Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
 
I think I've told this on here before, but it's worth retelling

I was 16, in sixth form, and was yet to know the intimate touch of a woman. There was this girl in my form who I thought was painfully hot, and totally out of my league. Hung out with all the cool guys, who doted after her despite the fact she never seemed interested in any of them. Anyway, it was mentioned to me that she had mentioned me to someone, despite the fact we'd hardly ever even spoken to each other. So in a moment of uncharacteristic boldness, I asked her out. Even more shockingly, she agreed.

The next few weeks we spent loads of time together, going to the movies, hanging out with each others' friends, all that jazz. And in school I even enjoyed a patch of minor celebrity among the cool kids.

As I say, at the time I was yet experience my first taste of sex, but I decided that now was the time. I decided to make everything perfect - I made sure my parents would be out, cranked up the heating, set out candles, some soft music. She came over and we spent some time generally making out. I knew it was now or never, so I went for gold and started to unbutton her jeans. She didn't resist. I tentatively slid my hand down into her pants and started to explore. She laid back and stretched out her arms above her, obviously enjoying the moment. After a few minutes of this, I was gaining in confidence, and she was really getting into it. Then I felt something, quite faint at first, but that painfully familiar feeling in my loins. I was about to come. Right there, laying on my bed, my hand in the pants of the hottest girl I had ever met, still wearing my jeans, and I was about to blow it. I tensed up for a moment, tried all I could to stop it, but it was too late, and moments later it was done.

I panicked. In the space of a few short minutes my dream come true had turned into a nightmare. A hot chick expecting me to climb aboard, and there I am with my underpants full of rapidly cooling jizz. She noticed I had frozen.

What's wrong? she asked

I needed to think fast, but in my haste I simply made the situation worse.

I don't think we can do it, I said

I don't have a condom

That's ok, I'm on the pill, we don't need to use one this time


Curses. My one trump card had been rendered useless. Accursed female liberation. So I needed to think of a reason why I couldn't have sex. And the first thing I thought of was AIDS.

Well, you see, this guy I know. He died of AIDS. It was a long time ago and I'm ok about it, but when you've seen someone go through that, it makes you think. I don't want to take any risks. I'm not saying you've got AIDS or anything, I just would rather not risk it..

Suffice to say, she left fairly shortly afterwards. The next day I got a call from her while I was at work. She said she didn't see it working between us, thought it was best if we didn't see each other again.

So yeah, I blew my shot at this hot chick by implying that I thought she might have AIDS. And, I guess, to a lesser extend my messing myself in the pants...

Yeah, I regret not getting together with her 18 months earlier, when a boozy, chaotic relationship with someone totally unreliable would have fitted my lifestyle extremely well. By the time it all came out, though, we were weeks away from graduating and about to go our separate ways. I spent the next 10 months miserable, stuck at my parents, posting off jornalism applications to That London and it would have been impossible to sustain a relationship in those circumstances. The alternative would have been even worse. Get a flat in a city somewhere just as our relationship was taking its first, faltering steps and hope against all the evidence that we spent our time looking for work rather than getting wasted and listening to Fear Factory.

Of course, 18 months earlier and I'd have missed out on some other relationships, and plenty of nights of simmering dramatic sexual tension with Heather. The more I think about it, the more it seems like it was the first sensible decision I ever made, regarding women.

Needs more context, though, doesn't it. If that's how she came to sleep with 60 guys - 3/4 a year, then, yeah, it's not like she's going liek the clappers, but you're talking about a 30-year old who has never had a long term relationship, which is a bit off-putting. On the flip side, if she's married and has racked up 59 other guys on the side then that is an extravagant tally, and would make you question the quality of someone's character. Similarly, if she's had a few long term relationships, and the rest of her partners have been crammed into the gaps then it does seem a bit more promicsuous. I suppose you;d have to ask women: do you really bump into a man every three months who's definitely worth sleeping with?

For the record '60 or 70' sexual partners is the number used in the play Blackbird to suggest that a woman who was abused as a child has been psychologically damaged by her experiences.

That, in and of itself, is a good enough reason to not have a ralph. He's superfluous. At the very least.

This ralph/BM stuff is unspeakably tedious. I suggest we just ignore the pair of them when they start, in the manner of toddler training.

Thus: I don't think three partners a year is a lot. She may have had a few LTRs thrown in there two, which would skew the average to four or five, but I still think that's OK. I bet ralph wouldn't have batted an eye if it was a bloke with a similar tally.

I have never come in my pants.

Actually, the more I think about it, the more I'm not even sure I've met 70 people over the past ten years that I'd even want to sit and have a drink with, let alone have sex with.
 
Posted by herbs (Member # 101) on :
 
Ah, but some people you have sex with you wouldn't want to talk to.
 
Posted by froopyscot (Member # 178) on :
 
Are we now tallying the number of people we've slept with without talking to? [Eek!]
 
Posted by ralph (Member # 773) on :
 
two.
 
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
 
You'd certainly have to have pretty low standards to be able to achieve such a tally. Especially if, as I think we must assume, she lived in the same general area as Ralph. Which means she must have slept with virtually every man in the town.

If I may be Devil's Advocate just this once in my life, there's something slightly disingenuous about this because it assumes an absolute equality of opportunity when it comes to sex, which doesn't seem to acknowledge the most common dynamic in places where people gather to cop off. The vast majority of the time the form is that men make the approach, and the women choose whether or not to reject them. To say there's no difference between a guy sleeping with a bunch of chicks and a chick sleeping with a bunch of guys is to pretend that this common dynamic simply isn't there.

Generally, if you want to pull a girl, you have to impress her to some degree, whether in looks, humour, charm, whatever. If a girl wants to pull a guy she probably just has to ask.
 
Posted by ralph (Member # 773) on :
 
In the general area, yeah. What's your point?

This talk of numbers and such reminds me of former NBA great Wilt the stilt Chamberlin. He claims to have slept with over 20,000 different women during his lifetime.
 
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
 
None really, just a midly humourous observation which could be misconstrued to infer that I was suggesting that the woman who has had 70 guys was actually Amy. But of course that's ridiculous because Amy is happily married and posessed of a much more robust moral fortitude

14 by the way. I've had 14 cars. But we don't talk about that here.

That's got to take some time. I mean, if you make allowances for activities like sleeping, eating, playing basketball and brushing teeth, and take what's left over, doesn't that make for an average duration of what, 45 seconds per woman? Hardly something you'd think he'd be proud of. Poor Wilt Chamberlain.

It seems quite amazing, when you look at it that way, that most men ever actually get laid. I certainly can't explain most of my sexual encounters.

Just postulating that it might have been involved in the two people you slept with without talking to.

Either that or the subway must have been particularly crowded on those two occasions.

If humour and charm were genuine factors I'd be giving Wilt the Stilt a run for his money.

Wilt's dead now, but I bet he'd still pull better than you...
 
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
 
If he ever suffered from erectile dysfunction, his name would be pretty funny. If you were the lady in that situation, you could construct a pretty cutting remark. Something like "Wilt by name, wilt by nature"
 
Posted by ralph (Member # 773) on :
 
I don't think saying something like that to a 7'1", 300 lb. man is such a good idea.
 
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
 
He beat up women?
 
Posted by ralph (Member # 773) on :
 
I've heard rumors. But be real...if he had 20,000 sexual encounters, odds are that he roughed one or two of them up...
 
Posted by Thorn Davis (Member # 65) on :
 
It doesn't scream "reverence and respect", does it?
 
Posted by ralph (Member # 773) on :
 
If he did it one time out of 20,000 he'd be 99.995% respectful. That's pretty good.
 
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
 
Wouldn't that be awful though. You sleep with 20,000 women and not one of them wants to have a relationship with you.
 
Posted by ralph (Member # 773) on :
 
Maybe they did. Maybe each and every one of them. But he didn't want to be tied down...not ol' Wilt. A one woman man? You shittin' me son? All that ***** out there and I'm gonna sleep with one woman the rest of my life? Fuck that. I'm Wilt fucking Chamberlin. Possibly the greatest professional basketball player of all time.

I'm glad I read this thread in its entirety.

But I can't remember if I'm supposed to be ralph baiting, discussing Ringo's cars, my sexual history or talking about the snot blocking my nostrils and the conjunctivitis I've had for two weeks, keeping eyes a constant gooey mess.
 
Posted by ralph (Member # 773) on :
 
Your sexual history.
 
Posted by Lilo (Member # 8247) on :
 
Two weeks seems a long time to be suffering from conjunctivitis. Not that I would actually know, I've never had it before. For the last thirteen days I've been living with the paranoia of wondering if the person I'm having a conversation with is internally screaming with horror at the eye boogies nestling in my tear ducts.

Eye boogies are horrible, aren't they? I hate having conversations with people that have eye boogies.

Am I the only one who finds Ralph and BM's exchanges funny? I thought that as a forum we all decided they were a bright spot in an otherwise tedious cycle of 'what clothes I am wearing / games I am playing / lunch I am eating' thype threads.
As a forum, I thought we'd had this discussion and decided we were going to encourage more BM / Ralph baiting.
Didn't we. So why aren't we doing it more?
 
Posted by New Way Of Decay (Member # 106) on :
 
I think some of the other forumites feel indifferent to it all. I can see how it would frustrate people. I don't think we have to stop being mean to Ralph, I just think BM and R are not allowed to interact with each other because it goes like this.

'Ralph, you are a despicable, loathsome creature whose fabric of existance is a perpetual symbol of all that is wrong in the world'

'I know you are but what am I? Did you see that Miss? Poor Ralph. [Frown] lol [Roll Eyes] '

I had a dream about McDirts last night. This makes him officially a member of TMO in my mind. I can't really remember the details, but it was down near a canal and both our parnters were they. I was getting the impression that McDirts really didn't like me, but kept cracking jokes to try and lighten the atmosphere, which just made things worse. I think maybe he tried to kill me at one point.
