29. I lost my best friend to a speedo in the war
:cry: did he get a chance, no! heh. Guys I am totally fine, my fear of speedos is like my fear of baloney, more of a dislike than an actual fear.

39. I'm a woman, and Speedos scare me, too, JK.
I had a date to go boating with a guy once, and he dropped trou and bared his speedo adorned ass. His, um, rudder was already activated. Kind of made me gag. (Oh, and there was that thing about the pimples on his thighs, too.) Ever since, I have had a speedo aversion.

42. Thank you
at least I got some bigender support here. Its really like boxers or briefs really, I like to wear boxers because they feel like shorts, same reason why I like trunks better. They are terrifying looking.

50. We are smart arent we
I think about it this way, when I am in my trunks I feel like I am wearing shorts in the water which is nice, may slow me down but it feels good, same with boxers, the other two feel weird. Glad you got enough sense on this, some of the gals I know are scared of speedos too.

66. I would advise against boxers, since, unlike briefs,
boxers generally do not prevent the sagging of testicles in the twilight of ones life, unless you wear a very tight pair (which defeats the purpose of wearing boxers)

Oh no, say it ain't so, is meme a username for a real jerk-off of a person who is a Bush supporter?

If it's the same person, I know where she is : (and she's a moderator)

http://www.baja.net/


I hope this is not the same person, but if it is, that's where you can drop her a line.

I have some good stories about meme.:nuke:

By the way, this site is on http://www,baja.net/ shit list. Ha Ha Ha

63. Eat them up, Yum!
You know, I almost chose that word, but then what would those forces out in GD have to start flamewars with if "abortion" were banned from DU?

BTW, I am actively staying out of that thread. I am getting so weary of male posters telling me that I am "framing the debate incorrectly" (as in a thread in GD/Campaign 2004) and that we need to move away from "radical" pro-choice positions (as the thread in GD currently states).

Nobody but the bikini boys and girls listen to me when I post in those threads anyway. I can post statistics, facts and figures, not to mention my personal experiences as a clinic escort, until my fingers are numb from typing and yet they still insist I have no clue. That and apparently my facts somehow personally attack them (I'm still trying to figure out how I accomplish that). So tonight, I rest. :-)
