Howdy all! I'll have the best vodka you have please Rumple. Been reading through some Comp entries, some great stories by some of the regulars. My own attempt won't make the deadline but maybe I'll find time to finish it at some point. There should be a badge for unfinished stories.
All this NASCAR an f'ball chatter; don't you folks realize its hockey season?
Nope, hadn't noticed any hockey going on. The Ashes start on Thursday though (I think I wrote an explanation of that somewhere... although I may have got sidetracked during the explanation).
Well, looks like I missed the compeTITion (hmm, perhaps I should make random and slightly immature capitalisation my quirk? Or I suppose I could use this emoji
) Haven't even read anything in ages - apologies to all. I'll try to get to them one day... Anyway, hope you've all been well! Oh, and I might get in the mood for the cricket, with a beer please Bill.

EDIT: Where is Phil's blog? Unless it's called www.nope.no.website I can't find it.
Umm, I just meant the bit where I can post my thoughts (when I have any) on my homepage here. It's really not very exciting
And it would probably appear in your newsfeed if I wasn't so hopeless at sending friend requests...

I realize the hubbub is slowly passing, but l liked both Mike and VG, so I will raise a glass (of coffee) to their leaving. Actually, my first reaction was that we lost the best piece of flash on Lush - VG's The Plumber. Is is cold of me to think of the story before the person?
Should I admit that my first thought was that the number of comments on my stories have gone down? Cold and self-centred.
But I will miss Mike and VG's thoughtful comments which they shared freely with relative newcomers like me. And miss their stories, and their posts around this place. So I'll raise a glass with you.Oops, the glass is empty. Bill! Beer, please.

I said topology, 'cause I had to look it up!
In mathematics, topology (from the Greek τόπος, place, and λόγος, study) is concerned with the properties of space that are preserved under continuous deformations, such as stretching, crumpling and bending, but not tearing or gluing.
Can you imagine keeping that in mind while trying to maintain an erection?
Umm, maybe I could. Although admittedly, the topology in https://www.lushstories.com/stories/straight-sex/the-snuggle-hitch.aspx was mainly as a metaphor. And because the photo prompt for the competition just screamed 'pure maths PhD student' to me (although apparently not to others... go figure).

My current story already has a map in it! Topology!

Greetings all. It's been a while between drinks for me in this fine establishment. Yep, long enough to forget what the place is like and start thinking it's a fine establishment. Fine people though...
The small number of entries in the comp is making me feel guilty about my total lack of progress of that front. So I think everyone should get writing. Do as I say, not as I do - I plan to be drinking beer!

Greetings all. Good to read some happy news from Gill and Tonya (well, happy for your son, not so happy for the truck... but objects can be replaced).
Anyway, I see that this thread is within a few hundred views of the million mark, so perhaps we should start the drinking and carousing now. Okay, well, a little more drinking and carousing than usual?
And Bill, I think it's time to break out the good glassware. Oh, this is the good stuff? Still... maybe if there's enough carousing, then no one will care.
I'll start with a beer, thanks!

Hmm, I've been thinking about a swimming pool filled with cum. As an aside, that's a sentence I didn't think I'd ever use.
Anyway, consider a small above-ground swimming pool, say a round one with a 4m (~12ft) diameter and 1.2m(~4') deep. This has a volume of just over 15 000 litres (no idea what that is in silly non-SI units). According to wikipedia, the volume ejaculated by a guy varies from 0.1ml to 10ml. So, filling that pool would take about 1.5 million very large loads, hopefully all from carefully tested guys. Now, obviously, some guys could repeat, but that would greatly reduce their chances of managing 10mls.
Now suppose that we can fit 20 guys around the pool at a time, and they take a minute to, umm, add to the pool contents (you may need some assistants to get them prepared, and then hope they don't have an issue with being shoulder-to-shoulder with other guys). Then, to fill the pool would take around 52 days. So the contents would be a little less than fresh...
Or, as others said a little more succinctly than I did... Yuck!

Evening all.
I had a very good weekend, topped off with a top 10 finish in the comp. And then today was a bit Mondayish. But now it's time to celebrate! I'm going to resist the urge to dance on the bar... well, try to, anyway.
Congratulations to the other regulars (and barkeeper!) who did so well. And commiserations to those who missed out this time, because a particular set of judges on a particular day thought their stories were not quite as good, or not quite 'bookish' enough. Still a bunch of amazing stories produced by the regulars (and irregulars) from this place.
Hopefully there's someone around who will join me in a drink - I don't care if it's early morning where you are!
And then I suppose I should try to bring my thoughts to boobies.
Ah, the sacrifices I make for a good cause...

Special congrats to Denim Daisy for writing her first ever story and begrudging congrats to Phil who (I am ashamed to admit) I doubted very much.
I find your lack of faith... disturbing.
Hmm, that's the closest to a Darth Vader smiley I can find. I might have to ask Gav why that is...Mind you, I had very little faith in myself last week when I had a vague idea that had been stewing for a while and maybe a few hundred words. Anyway, well done to you, Hannah, for battling through illness to continue to 'gently encourage' us all. Get well soon!

I actually got kinda nervous that so few people had entered last week but there've been so many last minute entries. I just want to say, if you've less than ten votes, TELL US HERE so we can get you enough.
By my count, there's currently 44 stories and my effort is 11th from the top. So a quarter of the entries have come through in under 48 hours (and I think at least half in the last week)... seriously, what's with this leaving things to the last minute people? Oh, um, never mind
Anyway, I might put in an order for coffee now, and then I can try to catch up on some of the stories that are lacking votes (my story is safely into double figures, so should at least be through for consideration even if some of the reprobates in this establishment do finally get kicked off... err, I mean - thanks for the votes and comments everyone - you're all great!

My original post said I thought he'd crossed a line by deleting any of them. While it doesn't specify internet/social media posts of any type, I believe the existing law covers it. I don't think he should be allowed to delete anything at all. You and nymphwriter brought up the cofveve tweet so I commented on it.
Ah, yes, you did indeed say that. I wasn't really meaning to be critical of your post - I was more thinking of the media that didn't seem to kick up much of a fuss about him deleting other tweets. But yes, the law would seem to cover all his tweets, so either the law should be modified a little. Or, perhaps he could think for a moment before each tweet - "is this something I might want to delete later?" And then maybe spend less time shooting his mouth off and more time, I don't know, running the country or something like that?

Wow, the mods are quick, and the bartender almost as quick. Swung by to see if my story was up, and it's already been pimped.
Anyway, thanks Bill for those kind words. Not sure about the chances of it making onto favourite lists, but my chances of being killed by Hannah have been dramatically reduced. And now I have a few days to catch up on a whole lotta competition entries. If only my boss didn't expect me to actually do some work occasionally (damn inconsiderate, really).
I'd better grab a coffee.
Oh, and my comp entry is at https://www.lushstories.com/stories/straight-sex/balls-head.aspx . And the place is real, but most of the rest is entirely fictional. Balls Head is really rather busy most of the time, so I'm not sure it's ideal for certain kinds of outdoor recreational pursuits... not that I'd know anything about that.

Phil, it's just a name I by no means have a corner on the occupation. In fact, if I were able to stop you from flirting with the lovely kiwi, I think she would have my balls for earrings. If they went with her outfit that is.
Wait a minute - occupation? You do this as a job? Damn, I must have studied the wrong thing at university.
And I'm not sure exactly where the First Lady of NZ will be sourcing her earrings... especially if I make any more comments about sheep... but ewe know that I won't do that.

For the purpose of this thread, Does it really matter if he's deleted tweets prior to these? As for "covfefe", why would anyone complain about that being deleted? The tweets he deleted were a record of his political support for someone. Cofveve was not.
Yeah, but who gets to decide which tweets are worth keeping and which are not? And if we draw the line at "actually making sense", then how much of Trump's correspondence would be worth keeping at all??

Sorry, didn't mean to leave that lying around.
I found that really funny. You should either be proud, or seriously concerned. Hi, btw.
And Bill. Firstly, could I have a beer, please? And secondly... umm... "stories should be between 2500 and 3000 words."
I've now got that bit handled. Just the implicit rules - "should also be stories rather than random collections of thoughts and scenes" and "should probably be worth reading" to get around. Still, there's nothing like a deadline for a bit or pressure...

One thing I don't understand about this whole 'scandal' is... hasn't he already deleted other tweets? For example, when 'covfefe' happened, everyone was surprised that that tweet stayed up on his account for hours before being deleted. Is the difference that people were too busy making covfefe jokes to care?

I thought Adelaide was the incesty part of Aus, supposedly. At least from jokes I've heard.
Most of the jokes I hear about Adelaide are based on it being either boring, or full of psychopaths who'll kill you and put your body in a barrel (even though Snowtown's actually more than 100km from Adelaide).
I am also going to refrain from making any jokes about New Zealand as that might be a good place to hide too.

I assumed that you meant Tasmania. Some "mainland" Aussies make that joke about Tasmanians, but I would never do such a thing, since the virgin wilderness of western Tasmania is on my list of places where I could hide from Hannah should this story continue to refuse to come together...
A bottle of Cascade or James Boags (Tassie beers) would hit the spot right now... although perhaps I'll just settle for whatever passes for beer here.

In Australia the Roman Catholic Church is still pretty strong, but if they can be overcome in Ireland then there is hope for Australia.
Tony Abbott, ex Australian Prime Minister, taught in a Seminary. He is a 'no' advocate. He was head butted in the street by a 'yes' campaigner last week, so things are getting heated down there. The No Campaign is spending a lot of money on advertising. This for example...
FWIW, the guy who allegedly headbutted Tony Abbott has said that it had nothing to do with the same sex marriage debate. And I quote: "I'm never going to get the opportunity to headbutt that c**t again...so I seized a moment" I can personally think of quite a few reasons to headbutt Abbott... but I wouldn't do it, because it's wrong.
Oh, and it didn't help the 'Yes' cause.

Hannah, I fully intend to enter the competition. I just need to let the "idea" stew a bit in my brain. I've entered the majority of competitions in the past five years, since I joined Lush on June 9th, 2012.
I haven't done so well in these contests. I was happy when the Magical Sex Stories comp was announced on January 19, 2106. I came in sixth place. It was a wonderful birthday present, because that just happened to be my birthday. Every one else in the top ten got an EP or an RR. I didn't. I am the 'Charlie Brown' of contests. If not for bad luck I would have no luck at all.
That is an achievement of note. I've managed three comps in a row with, well, limited success. But it's all about joining in the fun, getting your story read and exercising your muscle (err, the writing muscle, I mean...), isn't it? Not sure if I will get anything finished in time for this comp though. Somehow turning a vague idea into a story that doesn't make me feel ill to read over is not going altogether smoothly.
Anyway, it's bed time here, but maybe just time for one more beer first. Okay, maybe two...

I don't think it's necessarily helpful to talk about this issue in terms of money. Sure it's practical but how can you put a price on this issue ethically? I do think that if we refused to approach things because others were more vital nothing would ever get done.
Course I'm bi so I value these discussions more than most.
My complaint about the money is not that we shouldn't spend money on pushing toward equal treatment of all. It's just that this should have been handled by our politicians doing what they're paid to do - voting in parliament. Just like they do on every other issue (including some that actually do affect heterosexual marriages). Then maybe we could have avoided some of the vitriol (from both sides), and the completely nonsensical arguments (from the 'No' side) and we could have had it done already and could now talk about something else...

I am of the general opinion that referenda on something like this are a bad idea.
I wholeheartedly agree. Well, except for calling it a referendum - a referendum would make a binding change to the constitution. Marriage isn't mention in the constitution, and the upper house voted against paying for a plebiscite run by the electoral commission. Hence, we've got a postal 'survey' which some politicians have admitted that they will ignore.
So the process is a complete crock. But my 'Yes' vote has been signed, sealed and delivered (well, not signed actually, since that would kind of destroy the anonymity of the vote). Hopefully the answer will be resounding enough to make it really difficult for politicians to ignore...
