Blue Bunny brand Premium All Natural Vanilla Ice Cream - the most intense vanilla ice cream I've ever had - it also has pieces of crushed vanilla beans in it. I always hated vanilla ice cream until I had this one.

A Florida state law states: "If an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle."
In Florida, there is also a state law stating: "You may not kiss your wife’s breasts." Sorry, ladies.

I don't have any medical evidence, but a theory I heard from one of my older relatives (long ago) was that they suspected hangovers were the result of a dehydrated brain (on account of the alcohol) and I was always encouraged to fight a hangover by downing a couple aspirin and drinking LOTS of water to re-hydrate it. I don't get that drunk very often (not in several years as a matter of fact), but it did seem to work quite well when I did have one.
As a side note, for me at least, Chianti used to give me really nasty hangovers without getting that drunk - 'experts', with some dispute, claim the sulfites, tannins, histamines or tyramines cause headaches from red wines and especially Chianti! 'Well' and other cheap liquors also give me problems.
Best bet is to stick to top shelf liquors and use in moderation to avoid hangovers entirely. Cheers!

They are all ideas I'll give a try. I've tried emailing them to myself, PM'ing them to myself on Lush. Today I submitted a story and clicked 'Cancel' when it asked me if I wanted to clean Word format and it gave me my best results to date but I still had to fiddle with it a bit. For me, using Notepad seems to eliminate the great majority of the desired Word formatting and doesn't allow formatting of individual passages (like an italicized introductory paragraph - if I try to italicize just one paragraph, the entire document changes. I may try copy/paste to Open Office, MS Works or Word Pad. Thanks to everyone who suggested solutions. Mark.

I've been using the "Word" app in Office XP and whenever I post a story it prompts me with 'Clear Word Format?' and assuming it is a necessary step, I click yes. I haven't tried no, yet. Invariably I end up needing to do some editing of paragraph breaks. Is there a tutorial on how to create a story on my PC without having to do so much work on the story on the website? Is there a formatting trick I can use with Word to make it easier to submit stories? Is there another word processing app that would work better? I have been using word to do technical writing in my IRL career so I am very comfortable with it and hate having to learn new things (unless I have to). I've also got Open Office, Microsoft Works and Adobe PDF creator I can work with. Anybody got any tips for me? I simply want to be able to write a story, copy and paste it into the submit page and wait for the comments and votes to roll in with minimum hassle. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Congratulations to all three winners! Great job everybody. I didn't read all the stories in the competition, but among those I read, my favorite ended up in the top 3. As soon as I post this, I'm going to add the other 2 top stories to my reading queue. Maybe I'll learn what it takes to succeed in a future competition LOL. Again to cocokisses, one winged angel and naughtyannie, my heartiest congratulations!

I cropped out part of my face on my avatar pic hoping I eliminated just enough face to prevent image search apps from finding my photo elsewhere. So far it's worked! My image gallery pics are un-changed.

Broad, sweeping generalizations like that do no good. How the hell are we supposed to know why she's pissed at you? There are 2 sides to every story, right? Maybe her nap was just too long???

At 20 (guys especially) I don't think ANYONE is good at having relationships. It's like anything else, there are skills and lessons that need to be learned in order to be prepared to enter into a serious, successful relationship. I think the best advice I could give is for you to wait before entering into a serious relationship until you've learned some of those skills and lessons (and no, I'm not just talking about sex - communication skills, diplomacy skills, etc.). Most of the lessons and skills can be learned by dating. By dating you will also learn more about what kind of person you want to be with and what kind of people want to be with you, at that point you can look for your soul-mate and hopefully it will be a long term, successful relationship. In the meantime, you can have a lot of fun getting to that point by doing more casual dating.

Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd, although the album is kind of short so you have to click 'repeat' on the CD.

I grew up in a town that was a lumbering capital at the end of the 19th century, they called us 'Lumberjacks' but we didn't have a mascot at games, it was just a team name.

I gotta go with Somewhere In Time as well. It was filmed (for the most part) on Mackinac Island Michigan, a tiny island in the straits between the upper and lower peninsulas. I was in a band playing on the island during 7 days of shooting and although I never met any of the stars, the crew and a few extras packed the bar we were working at every night. Didn't know a thing about the movie until it came out and right off the bat I recognized the Grand Hotel. The Island is one of my favorite places in the world. Very cool.

Ok, so you're saying that for any woman who asks for or enjoys ejaculate on her face must have had some sort of trauma in her life. It's not possible for a woman to just enjoy doing something different? To maybe find it to be really hot just because they're sexually adventurous and confident in themselves?
Comparing this to abortion is apples and oranges. But to use your analogy... We could argue about whether or not it's right to have an abortion. What we couldn't do is assign some emotion or moral term to define their actions. Like degradation, disrespect, humiliation, shame. All of those terms define how she should/would/could feel, those aren't part of debate.
The original question is whether or not it's a "turn on". To you it's not a turn on, fair enough. No one can say if an action on their part is degrading. I could say whenever you fart or slap a woman's ass during sex or cum in her mouth or bite/nibble on her nipple, it's degrading. But i have no right to do so, I can't have an opinion about your agreed upon actions. I can disagree that I wouldn't do it, but not that you shouldn't.
edit... to quote a female Lush friend... "he's saying it's degrading, it's only degrading if the woman involved is degraded. it's not in itself degrading"
You're still twisting my words around. You're being disingenuous and I don't really understand why. but from here on out I'm simply going to ignore you and your rants. You've lied about what I've said, attributed things to me I never said, You are simply not worth discussing any issue with, let alone this one. For anyone with critical thinking skills, simply read my very first post. All the arguing here has been due to lafayettemister's inability to understand what I wrote and then go off on his little tantrum. please, grow up.
I wrote:
"Even if the woman wants it, I think it's not only disrespectful but downright degrading to come on a woman's face. I would question the psychological reasons for a woman who claims to like or want it or for a guy who likes to do it. Boobs, 'Pearl Necklace', lower back following doggie-style or lower belly following 'guy on top' are OK with me if the girl wants it and indicates so before it happens."
This was my opinion and I intended to leave it as such until lafayettemister started twisting my word and 'assuming' he knew what I meant and 'insinuating' that I was not free to have my own opinion and perhaps insisting that I adopt HIS opinion. I did clarify my statement a bit when he erroneously thought that I meant it was that it was somehow degrading or disrespectful to me. Other than that, I can't understand how he dare argue with me because my opinion differs from his. What gives you the right to tell me whether my opinion is valid or not. I never judged your opinon. You obviously don't know how to enjoy a civil debate nor how to be honest when doing so. Good bye.

First off, you never used the term "cum facial". But that's what it's called. That's the terminology for the act in question.(That's slang terminology for an act that I feel is disrespectful and degrading to women. Try to find it at Dictionary.com, it's not there!)
You never used the specific word "abuse", but have several times mentioned "something" from a woman's past. You're referencing abuse even if you don't use the word. (No I'm not. That's an example of you attributing words to me that I did not use. There are thousands of possibilities that might result in a woman wanting a man to ejaculate on her face that wouldn't be considered abuse - traumatic events, neglect/abandonment are just two general categories you would find causation that wouldn't be considered abuse. Of course, abuse could also be a causation, but not exclusively)
I guess our difference is that I don't think that either of us, men, can have an opinion on what is degrading to women. Only a woman can decide that for herself. (Do you have an opinion on abortion rights? Do you have an opinion about wage equality for women? Do you have an opinion on any other women's issues? I have opinions on all those, so your statement that men can't have opinions regarding women is ludicrous, including whether or not I opine that an act is degrading or disrespectful.) Some people think swallowing cum is degrading to women. Some think stripping is degrading to women. Only a woman herself can say what is degrading to her.(True only a woman can choose her own opinion. That does not mean I am not entitled to my own opinion just because I carry no Y chromosome. That's all I'm saying. My disagreement with your opinion is that you can tell someone how to feel. (There you go again putting words into my mouth. When or where did I ever tell someone how to feel? I expressed my opinion, that is all I did.

You didn't post your opinion. You posted that it's degrading to women. (THAT'S MY OPINION)You aren't a woman so you can't opine about whether something is degrading or disrestpectful to all women.
Valid opinion... GC doesn't think it's a turn on to cum on a woman's face. Not something he would ever enjoy as he'd feel he's disrespecting her to do so.
Invalid opinion... Cum facials(NEVER USED THIS PHRASE) are a degrading act and women that enjoy them must have had some form of abuse(NEVER USED THIS WORD) in their past. Any woman that likes cum facials is agreeing to being degraded(POOR RE-PHRASING OF A STATEMENT AND I DISAGREE WITH YOUR INTERPRETATION).
edit.. we could do a poll, but it wouldn't prove anything. You're opinion is that it's degrading, like it's a fact. If even one woman disagrees then your fact is disputed. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but not entitled to telling someone else how to feel.
Do you always twist peoples words? You seem to have trouble understanding exactly what I wrote and contrary to what you think, I did post my opinion, stated in plain English and quite concisely.
Did I tell you what to think or do? NO. Did I EVER tell anyone what they should think or do? NO. What exactly about my post has your panties in such a bunch? You seem to lack so reading skills - where or when did I use the word 'Abuse'? - I've read every post I've made on this thread and have never used that word.
Arguing a position by misrepresenting the point made or actual language used will not help you win the debate. You replies to my OPINION (did I ever state it was anything other than MY opinion? Again, NO.) are totally invalid and for someone who claimed on his post on page 6 of this thread to have never experienced the activity anyhow, Why the Hell are you arguing with me about MY OPINION in the first place? CAREFULLY read my posts and you'll see everything I expressed was simply MY OPINION. You're entitled to your own opinion, too but you are not entitled to misrepresent MINE.
In the future please refrain from quoting me unless you use my actual words.

edit... it's a degrading act in your opinion. but not everyone shares your opinion, wouldn't you agree?
Maybe we should take a poll? I have a feeling my opinion is among the majority, whether the poll is taken on Lush or an even wider sample of the population.

Find yourself a wingman who is a little more socially at ease to get you started until you build a little confidence. I had a similar situation following a divorce some 20 years ago. I got over it quite quickly.
