I've really enjoyed Elementary. Miller and Liu's interpretation of the characters provides an enjoyable twist to what would otherwise be Yet Another Police Procedural Drama

Of course comparisons with BBC's Sherlock are going to be made. That show's co-creator Mark Gatiss is a proper Holmes fan* and that is clearly evident in the level of detail and reference; borrowing heavily from the original stories. Great for fans of Holmes but somehow I think it's held back by a need to remain true to the original character. This is where Elementary, for me, allows more people to the party.

Both of them are far more in spirit with Holmes than Guy Ritchie's film version.

the movies, in my opinion, are awful - ok, i need to amend that - the first one was. i didn't watch the second one cause the first one was so bad.

Do you think a safe word isi still necessary in an online D/s relationship?
Safe words are meant for when things go to far or one partner is uncomfortable, can that still happen online?
Share your thoughts please.


simple answer. yes. in ANY type of D/s relationship a safeword is a MUST. NO exceptions. sure, to an extant, it's RP, but we get lost in it, emotions come in and it can be intense - sometimes someone might introduce and element that the other is not comfortable with for whatever reason. there needs to be a way to slow things down or stop them if this happens that still preserves the atmosphere of the scene/relationship/whatever.

one of my early partners when i first joined lush introduced, without talking about it first, breath play int the scene. it's a huge trigger for me and i was not only taken off guard, but genuinely upset. being able to stop cold right there became very important to me.

we have been watching Elementary from day one - Johnny Lee Miller is brilliant as Sherlock - it's a must watch in my book. Also, we've watched Sherlock, the BBC one with B. Cumberbatch which is also amazing - as a treat, we also got the rare treat of seeing the filmed version of Frankenstein with Miller and Cumberbatch playing the lead parts, switching each night - i thought Miller was the better Monster, while Benedict was the better Doctor. smile

Incorrect. Lush is essentially an adult community, with erotic stories as a central core. This isn't a porn tube, designed to get people off.

For fly-by surfers, sure, that might be all they are here for. But for the majority of people who keep coming back, day after day, the central community, it's about the friendships, forum banter, learning how to improve their writing, discussing stories, chatting etc - a broad spectrum of adult entertainment.





It's also a support group for some of us.

As I believe, the women must completely trust the man at first. It's just what they need. Later on, when the girl is more experienced with being dominated and loves it no matter what, she can do it with any guy I suppose.


no - most subs 'might be able to do it with any guy'. that doesn't mean they well. the relationship between a D and their s is a lot more complicated than just random kinky sex. it takes trust, as you said, and getting to know the other person, it takes time, as well. it's not just sex, btw. it's not just something you do to get off on - it's a lot of responsibility on both the D and the s.

Nope. Then again, I'm not really the type to pick up a set of binoculars and start spying on people or hide behind a tree, peeping into a window with my hand up my skirt. It feels a little too pervey - even for me.


*giggle*

btw, no. i don't want people spying on me, and i''m kind of all about the golden rule, you know? do unto others and all that smile
saw an ad on tv the other week for farmers dating farmers...
this is hard. i didn't think i really had a problem, but this is hard...

As I said, this was my last resort. Was on three dating sites. Each had a.90 day guarantee that I would atleast meet someone for sex, or I get 90 days free. Each had to give me the.thre months. And when that expired, they had nothing. Cancelled all three, plus another social site I was on. Is it beyou coming clear now?


brutal honesty. if this is how you presented yourself on those dating sites, i'm not surprised. you seem to have decided to be miserable. all the advice in the world can't change your attitude. if you choose to wallow, than wallow, but don't expect anyone to magically fix your life. only you can do that. i'd actually be sympathetic if anything about you told me you were trying - from reading all the good things people have said her, and your responses, i've come to the conclusion that you enjoy being miserable for the attention it gets you. newsflash: after a while people get tired of hearing you go on and on and ignoring their best intentioned advice. do yourself a favor, at least PRETEND that you're trying and stop being a drama king.
not after you just ruined my all girl orgy plans! next time, call, fool!

You stole what I was going to say... Are you invading my mind? lol


that was me, actually - sorry, but really, it's fun in here! like a crazy sexual circus or something! smile
ps - i think you're a cutie, Chris. i'm married and kind of into girls, so i wouldn't date or fuck you, but that's not cause of your looks. smile
Quote by Dudealicious


How would your wife think of you trolling for compliments on Lush?


why? what's the issue with a little ego build up? he didn't say he's going to jump the bones of anyone who says something nice - he just wants to hear that he's good looking. i know i like it when someone tells me i'm pretty, even if it's not my wife and i don't mind telling others they're good looking - it's perfectly harmless smile
because it feels good seems to be the obvious answer to me. smile

1) isnt that what you do in society when you offend someone?
2) my history dictates where I am in the ”barrel”
3) pretty people includes the witty, charming and socially attractive, not just physically appealing
4) yeah, I get that reactio. A lot


woman are also attracted to attitude. quite honestly, yours isn't helping you. not a criticism, just some friendly advice. you want a girl, you need to make her want you too. smile

Lisa - If you only drink one beer or so a night, there's no need for you to suffer too!

Rach - you first!

I received an invite over the weekend, to a friend's 40th birthday party, held on Feb 16. I think that will be my breaking point, if I make it that far. An open bar, good friends, and fairly close to home.

How on earth do teetotallers manage on such occasions, they don't get invited?

Day 4: Not feeling any different than usual. No headaches which I thought would be in the post, only a horrible feeling of lucidity each evening. The sudden rush of good health hasn't happened.

My liver sent me an email to say hello. I'm sure she thinks she's been transplanted, the poor thing.


traditionally, i tend to get trashed on V-day, feb 14, so you may very well beat me smile
i liked the man chasing the cheetah and the toyota one with the fairy. the Go Daddy one with the model and the nerd kissing was REALLY uncomfortable, tho - it was the sounds... wtf were they thinking? Go Daddy, actually, are usually really in bad taste, imo. silly
i only buy ebooks if i can't get a hard copy of it - i like books and they look pretty on my bookshelf - i just like looking at them when i'm hanging out in our bedroom relaxing. smile
i need a drink. i'm not going to take it, but i need one. thanks for helping me stay honest, Nic (i almost wish you'll break first to give me an excuse to do the same *mumbles under my breath*)

Which one?


all of them, but the Soraya is the best of the best. no woman should be without one. smile
i will be honest, i am having urges still... it's been my way of coping for a while now and everytime i have a bad moment, i think - i could fix that by getting high. i just kind of need to do it without that kind of help for a while.
i'm shy - no, really, it's true - shut up, you - ANYways, i find that it's easier if i listen a little first... like, if a girl/guy i want to talk to is having a conversation and it doesn't seem closed, i'll listen and if it's something i feel comfortable joining in, i will and pretty soon i'm involved - like art, or a good book, or a movie, just anything you're familiar enough with to have an opinion about. smile
me too, Nicola - you're in good company - no drugs or booze for a month for me - it was getting out of hand, we had a looooong conversation and well, synchronicity and all smile
would i prefer one? you make it sound like i go around shopping for virgins at the local grocery store or something. yes, i'll have one of those virgins, please. oh, and i have a coupon. smile

Guys, I know I saw this somewhere on here but can't remember where - how do I indicate the use of italics when submitting my story? Do I need to bracket the word/phrase in some way? Thanks in advance.


when you submit, there is a blue bar across the top of the box in which your story goes - if you haven't already italicized something in your word program, then simply highlight the word to italicize - there's a trio of buttons on the blue bar, B I U - Bold Italics Underline - hit the "I" button and it will italicize your word. hope that helps. smile
