Depends on the woman, but am always of the opinion that more natural is best. A little bit here and there, sure, but I'm not fond of heavily made up. My wife, for instance, might put a bit of lipstick and blush on when we go out but otherwise doesn't wear makeup at all. Obviously, some women benefit more from makeup than others, so I'm not hard against it, only of the opinion that less is more in a lot of cases.


I'd mostly second that. For the most part, perceive makeup as a great tool to cover up a few minor flaws/blemishes or to accentuate some of your features, and don't assume that guys find apparent makeup attractive in and of itself (because most don't). I do appreciate a bolder 'pornstarish' look every once in a while because it allows me to perceive a girl under a new exciting light and it fits nicely into some sexual scenarios, but even then discerning moderation is always advised. These are both perfectly fine for that more audacious look:

I practically never ever watch TV series, but my girlfriend recently borrowed the first few seasons of this from one of her friends and has been rewatching it with me (on the basis that I enjoyed The Lord of the Rings and would therefore potentially enjoy this fantasy setting). I guess it's been our it's-raining-outside-and-we-might-as-well-cuddle-while-watching-this activity in the past few months.

We just finished Season 2 last week. My review: interesting characters/plotlines... but daaaamn does it take a whole fucking lot of time before any interesting events unfold (which is the main reason why I usually avoid these TV shows). I actually much preferred the first season, though I suspect that this is partly because I'm already growing a bit weary of it all. Yes, even with all those fabulous medieval titties. On a favorable note (and despite the massive eye-rolling reaction of my girlfriend), this series prompted me to download a hot porn-scene featuring Peta Jensen as the Queen of Dragons. I'm not sure how many more seasons I'll manage to watch, but I guess this TV show already had a few positive repercussions in my life, haha.

Seriously though, the bluish-guy featured in DamonX's post just appeared at the very end of Season 2. Will I really have to go through all of seasons 3-4-5-6 before finally witnessing whatever will happen with him?

Fuck.


I had to briefly resurrect this thread because this is quite astounding: I've managed to watch all 7 seasons of this series! My girlfriend and I had a Game of Thrones marathon during the last Christmas break where we practically watched the last 3 seasons back-to-back. And yes, this is most definitely the greatest commitment that I've ever had toward a TV series in my entire life.

I enjoyed pretty much every bit of it and loved nearly all of the characters, [s]even[/s] particularly those that we all love to hate. My only major complaint about that whole show was this guy, the archetypal loser named Stannis Baratheon:





In retrospect (and if you refer to my first intervention into this thread), the reason why I disliked Season 2 so much was predominantly because of that character. I mean, is it just me or did that guy simply fill the role of the disposable villain which just about any idiot could foresee the downfall of from his very first few appearances? I genuinely never perceived him as a threat at all, especially when compared to such great villains as Cersei, Joffrey or Ramsey Bolton. Plus 90% of his screen-time pictured him in the comfort of his own castle, a thousand miles away from all those other characters that we cared about. He was essentially just there to repeatedly get his ass kicked and hardly ever achieved any significant exploit.

Well, he managed to assassinate his own brother with the help of that redheaded [s]bitch[/s] witch, but even then, he wasn't even present and nobody gave much of a fuck about his brother anyway. He also helped at Castle Black at one point, but that was very late into the series and already waaay beyond the point of possible redemption. His death and the fall of his army was particularly lame. Anyway, I personally think that he was poorly handled by the producers and considering that he was a huge part of the focus in Season 2, this is by far the season that I appreciated the least.

I was pretty much hearing that sound whenever his face appeared on the screen:

Is it just me or is this season seeming very rushed. The first 6 seasons were so meticulous and methodical. This one seems like they are just trying to go through the paces just to get a a pay off.

Still the best show on TV, but I'm getting the feeling that they are trying to tie this up before the actors' contracts come up for renegotiation.


The change of pacing didn't bother me personally, but my own theory is that the series finally managed to cover the 5 books which G.R.R. Martin has released so far and the producers are trying to conclude the show as soon as possible not to diverge too much from the canonical denouement (which has yet to be revealed in the novels). There are supposedly 2 books still to be released, and considering that G.R.R. Martin publishes a book once every 5-7 years, at this point it's completely unrealistic to expect that the series and novels will both end at the exact same time.

In the early seasons, the producers were approaching things very slowly hoping that all of the books could be released before the later seasons. Now that they're realizing the unlikelihood of it, they prefer to opt for a quick ending (and probably leave a few things open to speculation at the end of Season 8) rather than to impose their own hypothetical vision of how the tale should end. That's how I see it anyway, and it would actually make perfect sense.

Oh, and I obviously saw Bad Religion live plenty of times too (ie. my favorite band ever). I attended pretty much every of their shows in Montreal in the last 20 years:


Popular artists that just about anybody would recognize? Admittedly not a whole lot, I can't say that I get that big of a thrill from those gigantic arena shows where the stage is a few hundred yards away from you. I mean, you end up paying $150+ for watching the artist on an enormous screen and the music is often relatively shitty (in terms of audible quality). I usually find that sum of money to be a much better investment when I buy a whole bunch of DVD shows that I can watch over and over again at home. That said, I did occasionally succumb to paying the full price for a ticket just to see a few musical legends, such as Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Mark Knopfler, Peter Gabriel.

Aside from that, I generally have just as much fun watching local/unpopular bands at different small venues in my city. There's a bar downtown that I love to go to where great musicians play covers from 60-70s rock bands (eg. Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Cream, etc.). I can often sit right next to the guitarist and get transfixed by his skills before having a friendly conversation with him (during his breaks, obviously). How fucking cool is that? Then there are a few venues where mostly Black/Latin people are playing international music (which is more to my girlfriend's tastes). And there's also a great punk bar/venue which I used to go to regularly in my 20s. I discovered this German psychobilly band there (Mad Sin); great band and thoroughly entertaining live performance, although I think that there was less than 30 people in the audience, haha:

Snow is only one part. Skiing in the Netherlands is either an indoor or a foreign thing (the highest point here is only 322.4m and it's only in a small part of this small country where there's any elevation at all). And building proper artificial skiing slopes is not very cost effective either.


Hah, mountains are so prominent here in Quebec that I didn't even consider that as a factor; I guess we just take them for granted over here. Even the name of my city (ie. Montreal) is based on a large mountain right at the center of it called Mount-Royal. Fun bit of trivia, the man who designed the Mount-Royal Park is the same who designed Central Park in New York City (ie. Frederick Law Olmsted).

There's also been a cross at the top of that mountain ever since the foundation of Montreal in 1642 (not the same cross all that time however):





The argument still stands though, different Olympic skiers going down a mountain at a suitable location will all experience the exact same descent, while waves are much more unpredictable and surfers will inevitably have to resort to chance to hopefully catch a great wave and demonstrate their skills. That's unless a big artificial pool was built, which as I expressed before really wouldn't be cost-effective and would defeat the whole charm of the sport by substituting wild waves with artificial (and extremely predictable) ones.
I can and I did.

I first achieved it all by myself, but nowadays it's something that I mostly perform with my girlfriend on an occasional basis. I can only achieve it in this position, and yes, I obligatory have to put my feet on the wall and push my hips with my legs. It actually helps a lot if my girlfriend is assisting me by pushing her weight on my hips; without her help I can only suck the tip of my glans (which is maddening more than anything).

It might sound extremely hilarious because it's quite a rare practice, but the reality is... having your own cock in your mouth is so fucking inexplicably exciting. Most people experienced with unconventional sexual practices will tell you how so goddamn fun that 'I can't fucking believe that I'm doing this!' feeling can be during kinky sex. It's true for depraved anal sex, it's true for BDSM, it's true for public sex, it's true for cheating, and in my own case it also happens to be pretty fucking true for autofellatio. And yeah, cumming in my own mouth and spitting on my girlfriend afterward just adds to that whole 'forbidden' sensation.

My girlfriend is also extremely open to these sexual idiosyncrasies, which is always great (she ain't my girlfriend for nothing, haha). I'd actually argue that observing me sucking my cock is often even more exciting for her than it is for me. Needless to say, autofellatio fits remarkably well into those playful dominatrix scenarios where my girlfriend is significantly more commanding than her usual self. She even fucked my ass with a strap-on while I had my dick in my mouth on a few occasions. Fun memories, haha.
To put it simply... damn would I love to produce my own bukkake/gangbang scenes.

I absolutely love the bukkake genre, but the bitter reality is that considering that it isn't all that mainstream, those scenes are relatively rare to find and generally produced by subpar studios (which inevitably leads to subpar setting/filming, subpar porn-actresses, and often repulsive male-performers).

I have nearly 200 bukkake/gangbang scenes stored on my computer (I just checked), and not a single one of them would earn the 'perfect' designation coming from me (although one or two of them would come pretty damn close). Either the girl is gorgeous and receives dozens of cumshots on her tits, but then the males are all a bunch of hairy fatties wearing masks (not to be recognized); or everything is just fine but the actress is extremely meh-looking, really doesn't seem into it and just stands motionless like a statue; or everything is perfect but then the girl only receives cumshots on her face (which I happen to hate and don't even bother storing on my hard-drive). It gets downright frustrating, I usually have to rely on my own imagination to compensate and to render the scenes absolutely perfect in my mind, haha.

So yeah, I'd tremendously love to produce high-quality bukkake scenes according to my own personal standards. Those would essentially be:

- Stunning female actress
- Fit, young and overall pleasant-looking males
- The more [s]guys[/s] cum the better (and I really mean it)
- Lots of dirty fucking and double-penetration before the bukkake officially starts
- Uninterrupted fucking when the bukkake actually does start
- Cumshots hitting just about every part of the girl's body (face is actually optional)
- Pussy/ass creampies are also highly welcome
- Generally just freely offer your goddamn cum to the girl in a spontaneous and uncontrived way
- Extremely slutty and assertive attitude coming from the actress (dirty talk and messy cumplay are always great)
- Nice sophisticated setting (although I'm not all that difficult concerning the exact location)
- Excellent lighting and great camera angles
- English or French language

That about covers it... and you wouldn't believe how so fucking hard writing this down just made me, haha.

How skiing then?


Artificial snow is actually ridiculously easy to create. I'm not that aware about the popularity of skiing in the Netherlands, but here in Quebec we have numerous mountains which are highly popular ski resorts. The skiing conditions are hardly ever dependent on the weather or natural snowfalls, ski resorts simply compensate with artificial snow whenever needed.

A properly 'regulated' surfing environment would quite literally require that a huge pool generating artificial waves be built just to accommodate that one sport: not all that cost-effective when compared to the countless winter sports that simply require inexpensive artificial snow. And I'd actually argue that this artificial surfing environment would practically strip the sport of its whole essence anyway: taming the wild waves and all that.


Oh no, I totally missed the highlights of this ferocious skirmish and literally just walked into the battle as the hostilities are slowly subsiding. Who the fuck am I going to swing those nunchakus at now that the fighting is over? Damon? Felix? Anyone? That will teach me to fly over to some exotic destination right during an intense period of rut...

*dejectedly removes his Karate Kid bandana and sighs over the sound of debris still haphazardly falling from the ceiling*

Seriously, a few statements almost triggered me to write yet another of my long usual essays but I'll just let it all slide for now, especially since this whole thread wasn't even about fighting to start with and I'm rather late to the party. It's quite likely that I'll create a thread about martial arts in the near future however, that might prove to be a whole lot of fun.

Concerning the validity of some martial arts though, and since this is a thread about Olympic Games, quite a few of them weren't even intended for realistic street fights to begin with. A lot were purposely created as watered-down sports (like judo or boxing), a lot were intended as cultural/artistic visual wonders similar to dancing (like the hundred different styles of wushu), a lot were simply established for physical conditioning or various health benefits (like cardio-kickboxing or Tai Chi).

Most of these styles don't even deny that reality in the slightest (although plenty of idiotic instructors will still attempt to convince you that their flimsy martial art is the greatest thing in the whole fucking universe). The founder of judo (Jigoro Kano) intentionally took the most brutal techniques out of jiu-jitsu to create the 'spiritual sport' which judo is renowned as today (while funnily enough, Brazilian jiu-jitsu is based on judo and essentially reinstated all those forgotten techniques). Even Muay Thai is an entertaining sport which emerged out of the much more undisciplined Muay Boran.

So yeah, all martial arts weren't created equally in terms of real-fighting applicability, but that certainly doesn't strip the majority of these sports from their validity as an extremely demanding or highly entertaining physical activity. While we're at it, well over 90% of sports are utterly useless in terms of real-life applicability. As an obvious example, when's the last time that a situation required of you to run for 2 hours straight?

While I'd be the first to agree with DamonX that taekwondo really doesn't offer the best bang for your buck regarding fighting skills, it's still a sport that I'm personally quite impressed by. Case in point:


To hayley above...

Not sure if you were aware of it, but Singer is in fact a manufacturer of sewing machines which was founded in 1851. The furniture shown in your picture is actually an antique sewing machine transformed into a vanity.

My father has a small collection of these antique Singer machines: two furniture ones (as shown below) and a small portable one. The furniture ones can actually completely conceal the sewing machine and turn into a very nice antique wooden desk. Believe it or not, but he found all of them in the garbage; people were just getting rid of them. My sister and I often laugh at him because he can be such a thrifty fool and constantly checks what people are throwing away while walking on the street. However, he definitely shut us up when he brought pictures of his sewing machines to an antiquarian and was told that each one of them was easily worth $300, haha.


I love fucking on a sofa personally (often much more so than on a bed), so I'd definitely go with the living-room.

I actually remember creating a thread comparing beds to sofas a few years ago. A sofa simply allows for a greater variety of athletic positions, plus I can put some dirty porn on my TV if I'm fucking my girlfriend in my own living-room: how so obscenely fun it can be to emulate (or surpass) what the actors on the screen are performing.

I also have a headlight lamp in my living-room and I live on a street-corner. On quite a few occasions my girlfriend and I fucked in front of said lamp so that our shadows would be perfectly projected on my blinds. Why not, some softcore exhibitionism can be pretty fucking exciting once in a while, haha.



Green tea or coffee.

I try to rely primarily on green tea for a moderate caffeine fix, but a bad night of sleep inevitably makes me revert to my old coffee-habit for a few days.

I probably only drank 2-3 energy drinks in my entire life, back when I was working on a night shift.
I doubt this will ever be adopted as an official Olympic sport, but an event I'd absolutely looove to watch is some kind of crazy obstacle course where just about every factor which contributes to a peak physical condition would be tested to the fucking max: overall strength, explosive power, muscular endurance, stamina, speed, agility, flexibility, balance, coordination, precision, etc.

I mean, marathoners and skaters are in outstanding physical condition for sure, but their feats are usually only focused around a few limited physical aspects or a few limited body parts. And yeah, you could argue that some full-body sports like hockey or tennis already assess a good portion of all that to a fairly accurate degree, but to me there's also a rather big 'chance' element in all those sports where you're playing against an opponent. Anyway, I'd personally love to see one such event where it would just be a bunch of athletes competing against the clock and essentially putting a definite number on their overall physical condition.

I actually did quite a few physical jobs in my mid-20s which would come pretty damn close to what I have in mind. The harshest job of that kind (and also the funnest since I'm an occasional masochist) was working in a tire warehouse: emptying a 53' trailer containing nearly 2,000 tires at full speed before the other scheduled one arrives, piling up a bunch of Hummer H2 wheels (which weight around 70lbs each), climbing a 16' rack with a 25lbs tire wrapped around my torso because the goddamn ladder doesn't fit into the alley, throwing hundreds of tires into a truck that's 30' away because you can't lose any time walking (there's actually a clever technique for that), running to the nearest drugstore during my lunchtime to buy an analgesic cream because my wrist hurts like fucking crazy. Oh, and you're not doing it all for a very short session at a time, you actually have to be in good enough physical condition to perform that job for up to 50 hours a week without losing any steam.

I might seem like I'm bragging (I'll concede that I totally am), but I've seen plenty of ex-convicts much bigger than I was getting teary-eyed after only a few days working at that place. One of them even completely lost it and yelled that he'd come back with a gun to shoot us all before vehemently slamming the door, haha. And since I'm already bragging, I'd really love to take a few Olympic athletes out of their air-conditioned gyms just to see how they would fare in that kind of relentless regimen/environment. Anyway, I'd simply be thrilled to see that type of multi-faceted activity being featured as an official sport. Call it a very personal fascination, I guess.
I quite enjoyed this 'farewell' scene with Catwoman. Notice how Batman is so goddamn weary and gloomy in that game. The developers really did an amazing job at subtly hinting at that 'one last struggle' theme throughout the game. It managed to fit perfectly with both the narrative of the story and the context of the game (being the definitive last game of this acclaimed series).

But hey, being weary and gloomy has never prevented anybody from sharing a final kiss with the hottest kleptomaniac in town:

Dang and I searched for it and everything sad


No worries, these personality tests always keep emerging on a periodic basis anyway; I've spotted at least five different threads about it since I joined here.

Having one here in The Spa might actually be a great thing, considering that it's much less likely to fade on page 10 of the section within a few days.
Being fully honest, every goddamn time I spotted that on a profile it was also accompanied by plenty of red flags which would have prevented me from ever interacting with that person to begin with. Including but not limited to: massive hints that the person behind the profile was a man, massive hints that the person was only interested in lame cyber-affairs, massive hints that the person was a self-absorbed egomaniac with extremely poor social skills.

So yeah, I don't quite bother if a few people put that on their profile... it just makes it a whole lot easier to identify individuals I'd never gain anything from interacting with.
Let's see...

I've only masturbated 3 times on Lush during a short fling with a girl which lasted less than 2 weeks, and I've been on this website for approximately 1,600 days.

This means that I cum 0.0019 times per day while visiting Lush, or once every year and a half.
This is all seriously so damn fucking hot. And stuff that I could potentially see my girlfriend wearing in the right circumstances:


Fuck yeah! I've finally completed Arkham Knight nearly 3 years after its release!

Really great game all around, Rocksteady Studios essentially improved on pretty much every aspect that made the previous games such fantastic titles. Above everything else, I especially enjoyed how so fucking dark and spooky the whole atmosphere was (the game actually takes place on Halloween's night, just to give you an idea). This is quite literally the very last night of Batman's career (and also the denouement of the entire series), and you really do sense the heavy history that he has with the numerous villains of Gotham. As opposed to the previous games, the main villains aren't all that bothered with threatening the life of innocent citizens: they just want to fucking take Batman down once and for all. The whole city is actually evacuated before the game starts, and Gotham becomes one enormous war-zone where everyone seeks to settle the score with our beloved dark knight. With that setting and the inclusion of a tank-like Batmobile, it goes without saying that this title has a manifest 'militarized' vibe to it, which was a fresh take on the whole series and which I appreciated quite a lot.

'Loathing' really is the central theme this time around: the villains hate Batman for derailing their plans, his allies hate him for being aloof and over-protective, the citizens hate him for not doing enough and actually provoking his enemies. Batman's long career is at this point where all of his inscrutable altruistic deeds only led him to being a weary, bitter and accursed hero, yet despite his numerous detractors, he's still determined to give everything he's got to offer Gotham the justice it deserves for one last fucking night.

Awesome!
DamonX actually posted this exact same test in The Lounge a few weeks ago. Those were my results:

I actually asked this question because I recently inherited a 3D TV; my father bought himself a new 4K TV before Christmas and generously gave me his old one. The funny thing is that I replaced it with my previous TV mostly because it's bigger and has more features, however I can't say that I give much of a flying fuck about the whole 3D aspect. My father also offered to give me nearly a hundred of 3D movies (because he obviously won't be needing them anymore), but I only picked around 25 of them. That's right, aside from not being a particularly huge fan of 3D to begin with, it just so happens that movies that are typically available in 3D tend to be the kind that I appreciate the least (ie. superhero movies or similar crap).

Honestly, I only rewatched Mad Max: Fury Road by myself and Finding Nemo with my girlfriend since I swapped TVs, and I really wouldn't be surprised if those are the only two movies that I'll ever watch in 3D on that television. The other movies that I inherited still kinda suck (eg. Jurassic World) and I definitely won't be buying 3D movies myself either (I rarely see the point of buying movies in the first place, aside from live music performances which I have plenty of).

Now I also bought a computer a short while ago which I plugged directly into my TV (very convenient to watch my porn collection on a 55" screen, mwahaha). And I downloaded a trial version of TriDef 3D, which essentially converts regular video games into 3D. Was it any good? Well yes, I must admit that it was actually pretty fucking impressive. As opposed to 3D movies that generally only split what's on the screen into two or three 3D planes, video games enhanced by TriDef present a real 3D experience where absolutely everything benefits from a depth perspective. Even my girlfriend who usually doesn't give much of a fuck about video games was quite astonished when she witnessed Batman gliding in Arkham Knight with 3D glasses on:





Would I buy the full version of TriDef 3D for $40 and constantly play games in 3D though? Fuck no, for one main reason: 3D crosstalk (also known as ghosting). In simple terms, crosstalk happens whenever what's supposed to be perceived by one eye still finds its way through the opposite lens, which creates this unpleasant visual artifact:





My own 3D TV is actually pretty good at reducing crosstalk, but LED TVs being notorious for not being the most efficient at rapidly switching images, a minimal amount of ghosting is still bound to happen. It's perfectly acceptable when I'm watching movies, however video games often having a lot of tiny details and a lot of text menus, the few games that I've tried on my TV invariably gave me a headache after about 15 minutes. So yeah, until TV manufacturers find a way to perfectly limit 3D crosstalk (which I doubt will ever happen), even breathtaking video games remain a short-lived gimmick which aren't realistically playable in 3D.



Is 3D Entertainment Outdated?

We've all been guilty of it at one point or another: buying a movie ticket for the latest 3D revelation (Avatar being a notable example), putting on those funny glasses, and reveling in childish amazement where having an alien spitting right at us suddenly became the most magnificent thing ever. As most things in life though, the magic hardly ever persists for more than a few sparse reiterations (coating my girlfriend with cum being a noteworthy exception to that rule).

Since the last few years, studios are investing less and less efforts into 3D effects (the majority are now post-processed gimmicks added after production), movie theaters are finding it increasingly difficult to justify the extra-fee of 3D admittances, people in general perceive 3D movies as an unwanted annoyance quite a lot more than the irresistible thrill that it was a decade ago. And whereas 3D TVs were the new big thing of 2010, most manufacturers completely discontinued their production in less than 5 years of unsatisfying demand.

What's your own perspective about 3D entertainment? Is it still something you occasionally get a kick out of?

Do you believe that technological breakthroughs could potentially give it a new breath, or is it already a definitive thing of the past?

Thanks for sharing!
Crazy stage antics...











And synchronized rocking...









True story, when I was in college (aged 18) one of my phys-ed classes was requesting the students to dress a list of their weekly physical activities. I added 'rocking my guitar' on my own list, because I genuinely believed that the energy expenditure was much greater than in many other uninvolving physical activities (I still do, actually). It all eventually converged into a heated argument in my teacher's office where I was vehemently debating that rocking punk rock songs was much more physically demanding than his boring volleyball classes, haha.

Seriously, if equestrianism, shooting and curling are considered Olympic sports themselves, the laughable thing is that including 'instrument playing' or 'stage performance' actually really wouldn't be that big of a stretch. What's honestly more physically challenging (and exceptional) between sliding a stupid stone on a sheet of ice, or playing an insane solo with your fucking teeth?
