Happy Birthday, Pete! To paraphrase H., marking your 82nd year (or really, any year past 75, IMHO) is a damn fine example of achievement!

Mike's story is amazing, I need to go read V.'s story...but right now, a lovely Hannah fortified with lager and chased with two shots of vodka would be lovely, please.
I managed to avoid the news all day (and I'm really a news freak, so this is a difficult thing), then came home, gave into my baser instincts, and opened Google News. First thing my eyes were drawn to was a pic--I believe by Reuters--of a (insert multiple swear words here) giving the "Sieg Heil" salute to the new President as he and the new FLOTUS walked down the parade route.
To say that my blood is boiling...both of my grandfathers fought in WWII, my maternal grandfather joined up with the RCAF in 1939, was shot down over Germany and taken as a POW sometime shortly thereafter, and escaped--unsuccessfully--from POW camps three times.
The first time he attempted escape, my grandfather almost made it to Allied lines before being recaptured. The second, he was shot in the lower left leg by the fucking Nazis before being dragged back to another POW camp. The third time, he and several others--British and Canadian--were again almost successful in reaching safety, right up until the fucking Nazis decided to fucking open fire on them, killing all but my grandfather--whether he was left alive as a warning to others, I don't know--shooting him instead multiple times in the lower back before dragging him back to yet another POW camp.
He survived, probably because he was released in 1942 to the Red Cross as some sort of "goodwill" gesture, but was left a permanent paraplegic. He also suffered from the what we now know as PTSD but what until the early 1990's was brushed off as "shell shock", and a few years before I was born, he killed himself. Fucking Nazis finally did get him, in the end.
My paternal grandfather, although he was never a POW, and was able to function well enough in society after the War, self-medicated with alcohol to keep his PTSD at bay, and he took his own life when I was very, very young. So yes, I have a wee bit of a thing about those who would mindlessly raise their arms in a Nazi salute. Son of a fucking bitch.
Okay, sorry for the rant. Maybe chase those chasers with a few Black Russians.
I'll be at the Women's March in Seattle...I don't have a Pink Pussy hat, but the ball cap I'll be wearing is grey heather, embroidered in pink with the Glock logo and customized with my nickname in the same pink, a gift from Glock GmBH about a year back. I figure, if they're going to grab my pussy, fair warning.
Really, really would like to open carry my AR-15, which was a birthday gift from my s/o and is a custom job (see pic below), tomorrow, but as a) I'm not a fan of open carry, period, and definitely not a fan of long gun open carry and b) I don't want to distract from the message of the march, I've decided to take a pass.

Three part question:
What gets you wet?
How wet do you get?
Can you feel yourself getting wet?
1) Certain well-written literary porn; the idea that some of the literary porn that I write makes other people wet (or hard, whatever); and, to paraphrase H., a certain MAN.
2) Varies according to circumstance.
3) Yes.

I've never been in here before. Is there alcohol? One of my daft NY resolutions was to give up alcohol this year, but I can have a virtual drink, right?
There's alcohol, in the BYOB sense of the term. *patting bar stool next to me* May as well line up the plurality of Jennifers...

BTW, we will be open tomorrow. However, patrons are asked to wear mourning black in recognition of the day's 'big' event. (sigh)
Ah, I've been working enough to block Friday's oncoming events in the U.S. almost completely out of my mind. Will probably need a few stiff drinks IRL after coming home from work tomorrow to face whatever the newly inaugurated President has posted on Twitter and/or what EO's issued by his predecessor(s) he has already eradicated.

Name one time someone meant something to you.
SereneProdigy, although I do not presume to know him aside from what he has posted previously in other threads, is IMHO quite astute in his assessment of your situation. I am sure that he has had someone--a "real" someone, someone offline, not an online "friend"--mean something to him, to paraphrase your statement. To dismiss his opinion and advice, which you actively solicited, out of hand because he is male and/or because it is does not match whatever opinion/advice it is you were hoping to receive, is rather foolish in and of itself.
As to your situation, "Lexi" and your relationship with/to her may well have seemed real to you, but from what I've read, your relationship with her was solely through Lush; you never spoke on the phone with her, never spent physical time with her, never did any of the things that would, in the definition of most, fall under the umbrella of "dating" each other. I can count on one hand the number of people on Lush with whom I have forged true relationships with--all platonic--and in each case, at the very least, we talk (as in, by phone) or text or whatever on a regular, frequent basis outside of Lush.
It is an unfortunate truth, but you "met" someone here, you idealized her, and you ascribed feelings to her that she clearly did not feel and clearly did not reciprocate. SP's advice to "move...on" is sage, and you would do well to heed that advice.

LOL.
"My friend appears to be in distress...I'd better exalt myself."
LOL. Having received an FR myself from the referenced member, his standards for choosing a "friend" seem to be fairly lax: if you are female and of fair complexion, you automatically qualify for a friend request. Bonus points and really long private messages are "awarded" for having written something he found to be arousing.

I like adverbs but you have to be careful not to overuse them.
I think if you strip too many out you run the risk of making your story sterile, like a triple distilled shot of literature. The flipside is cramming the piece with so many that it ends up fat and fluffy.
Yah, adverbs and adjectives are a careful balance. My pieces generally start out somewhere around a total word count of around 3,500; I let them sit for a while in my Google Drive, then mercilessly weed whack out everything that isn't absolutely necessary to the piece.
Aspire to write like J.R.R. Tolkien, aspire to weed whack like Hemingway, is what an English Lit professor of mine told me years ago in university. This is probably why many, if not most, of my pieces end up in the Flash Erotica category (less than or equal to 1,000 words) or come (no pun intended) very close to landing in that category, at somewhere around the 1,500 word mark.
Side note: A huge personal pet peeve of mine is the overuse of commas. There's the "regular" comma, the Oxford comma, and aside from those, they shouldn't be in a piece. I've read many otherwise good or great pieces on this site wherein the author confuses a pause in thought with a need for a comma. If in doubt, lose the comma. Semicolons are your friend, not so much commas. Just my thoughts on the subject.

I'll take a Hannah please. I threw a slight tantrum and deactivated my account here for a few days because of behavior of another. I did come to my senses and realize that is their problem not mine. I have enough problems without caring about something that does not matter in the bigger picture.
I think I need to write a new story. I'm still trying to figure out how to include those cocktail umbrellas.
I just have too many unfinished ones hanging around my computer. Maybe a Hannah will motivate me to take one out of the mothballs and figure out an ending.
In the meantime I am feeling generous so drinks are on me.
I type so slowly I missed the aforementioned free drink offer. No sex on the beach but please put my Hannah on MPL's tab.
Thank you!
Gil, I accidentally deleted your PM to me...and I've been working for ten and half days straight (wasn't supposed to work today, but a pregnant colleague called in, there were no qualified float nurses available, so I ended up working). I'm sorry. It wasn't me intentionally ignoring your PM, and feel free to send it again, as you know I'm always one to listen.
Bill, believe me, I know the formula. I just can't for the life of me write even an "about as good as good as can be expected" ending. Doesn't matter whether I'm writing happy in my personal/relationship life (as I am now) or whether I'm writing whilst in the throes of absolute misery in my personal/relationship life, the story always ends up at least a bit dark somewhere. I'm working on a true erotic love story piece right now (tentatively titled "Of Love And Other Losses"), but I have no idea how it's going to work out, going against the grain of the familiar.
Also, a "Sex on the Beach" with whatever you think would be an appropriate chaser (two shots of vodka?), please. No, maybe just send down two of the "Sex on the Beach". Then please take whatever is currently on MPL's tab and put it on mine, please. She's a love to offer, but I pay for my own drinks IRL and like to pay for others' drinks as well. Thank you, dear.

Presuming that by "taken it" you mean "sexually"...no to both options. Terribly sorry to disappoint.

Never mind. I'd forgotten how it ended. Not super dark, exactly, but not cheery

I'm getting quite addicted to these Vodka Hannah drinks, Bill. A double, please.

...I simply don't want say my brother to stumble across my profile and know that I'm heavily into sex. I'm not afraid of his reaction but I simply don't think it's any of his business...
Oddly enough, it was my brother who brought me here. Yes, we're close, but "twenty texts per day" close, not "Lush close".
Anyway, there was some contest going on--I think the Flash Erotica comp, when the category was just being unveiled--and he thought that I might as well put that minor in English Lit to good use. Ended up not placing--I didn't know that X number of votes were required to have a piece considered by the judges, and I submitted it very late in the contest--but I was hooked after it was awarded an RR. I didn't know at the time what an RR was, but I like shiny things, so I stayed.
As far as colleagues/friends/others "finding out" that I write on Lush, it doesn't bother me. Interestingly, the few people IRL whom I've told that I write what is essentially literary porn, haven't believed me. My s/o does, obviously, but that's about it. Apparently since I attend church regularly, volunteer in the community, specifically for the Washington State Patrol and for the King County Department of Health, participate in the One Night Count, and otherwise work to serve others before myself, it's not also possible for me to write porn.

You can find this out on the Authors page if you are curious:

Would be nice to put it on the profile page though.
That's such a neat feature, Liz! Thank you for the link...looking at the numbers individually associated with each story doesn't give nearly the idea of how much people do or do not like your work in general as does looking at the aggregate number of views.

Jen, what's got you thinking about writing a 5k plus story? The one I'm tinkering with now will probably come in a few hundred words under that limit. Just curious.
Mostly that although I have six or seven stories rotting in my Google Drive, I really do have the tendency to let longer stories wander off into the woods to be eaten by bears rather than finishing them. I tend to so harshly weed whack my stories that I'd really like to try my hand at, you know, writing something that has an actual, written backstory (most of my stories have either no backstory on the characters at all, or only have an inferred backstory).
Hell, in probably half or more of my stories, I don't even give the characters names. So writing something longer, with named characters with some kind of backstory, would be a personal challenge that I'd like to meet. A true challenge would be writing a true "love" erotic story, approaching or surpassing 5,000 words, since a) I can't seem to write a story--any kind of story--without putting some kind of dark or otherwise unexpectedly unhappy (for at least one character) twist ending into it and b) it would be something totally different from what I've previously submitted.
I don't know, my most recent submission, "Beribboned And Bowed", started out as a love story, was nearing the 4,000 word mark, when I went, Fuck it, trashed pretty much everything except the basic proposal and Christmas theme, and weed whacked it mercilessly, down to something like 1,200 words, tossing in the (very dark, for the male protagonist) twist ending just for grins. Still, it was accorded an RR.
Maybe I should stick to what I know.

Read the full question as posted by the OP, and my answer is no, I've not performed oral sex with plural partners.
I do certainly love performing fellatio--wrote a whole story about it, it's in my sig line--but I've never had the opportunity or time to perform it on/with plural partners.

i trust people who have their real photos up less than people who don't.
Dammit, H. Now I can't be trusted?
No pics on profiles or no avatar? I don't really look at profiles, but red avatars...really, it only takes 45 seconds to shoot a pic with your phone, or maybe longer to figure out how to use Lush's stock avatars. I only recently added a pic to my own profile, and when I do look at a profile, I tend not to look at the picture galleries unless there's some good reason for me to do so. Or, more awfully, if the only thing on the profile is a pile of dick pics...aargh. Then I have no choice but to get out of that page as quickly as possible.

Thank you Hannah, Mike, Bill and everyone else for your kind comments regarding the RR. It's a silly thing, but it makes me happy.
Now...if I could only carve out the time to write something longer than 5,000 words...I think "Tension" is my longest, I don't think that story even approaches the 5,000 word mark. As to the next contest, I think the "story behind the painting" idea is a good one--all of the paintings have real stories behind them (yes, even Picasso's "Nude Descending A Staircase"), but it would be both challenging and fun to create an entirely new context for a work of art.
Pretty busted tonight after work, it'd be lovely just to have another "Hannah" with lager and perhaps a bourbon chaser, neat?

You have trouble recognizing your own avatar?
I think Meggsy meant that it would be nice if avatars representing a person could somehow be identified--perhaps in the person's profile--as not being that actual person.
Mine is me, I think Meggsy's is hers, there just seems to be an onslaught lately of members claiming their avatar is them...not sure how I feel about this suggestion, though. I understand women, especially, wanting to show themselves as they want to be or how they feel they are, instead of how they actually are. I hope this makes sense.
