Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 However, the point I intend to make is, isn't it incredibly depressing to see someone incredibly attractive (walking down the street for instance) and knowing full well you'll never see them again? It's worse knowing that you're never going to have sex with them. Ever. On the other hand, think of all the mingers you see that you're never going to have sex with either. What are you trying to say!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Friend of mine had his motorbike stolen out of his garage 2 weeks ago, it was recovered by the Police after a couple of days, they told him they'd let him know when it was ready to collect (after finger printing etc.). He gets the call and goes to the station with his documents, he then has to pay £150 to release his own stolen bike. If he hadn't got it then he'd have been charged an additional £10 a day storage. To make things worse the thieves came back on Sunday night and despite him chaining it to an immovable bench in his garage they took it apart and stole it again. He called the police and they were out straight away, the bike was recovered the next day as somebody spotted it dumped in a nearby alley (presumably they saw the Police car driving round). Same as before he waits for the call and then had to pay another £150 to get his bike back. I find this absolutely disgusting personally, he's had to fork out £300 to get his own stolen property back off the police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted November 11, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted November 11, 2010 Benjamin Franklin, Advice to a Young Man on the Choice of a Mistress (1745). June 25, 1745 My dear Friend, I know of no Medicine fit to diminish the violent natural Inclinations you mention; and if I did, I think I should not communicate it to you. Marriage is the proper Remedy. It is the most natural State of Man, and therefore the State in which you are most likely to find solid Happiness. Your Reasons against entering into it at present, appear to me not well-founded. The circumstantial Advantages you have in View by postponing it, are not only uncertain, but they are small in comparison with that of the Thing itself, the being married and settled. It is the Man and Woman united that make the compleat human Being. Separate, she wants his Force of Body and Strength of Reason; he, her Softness, Sensibility and acute Discernment. Together they are more likely to succeed in the World. A single Man has not nearly the Value he would have in that State of Union. He is an incomplete Animal. He resembles the odd Half of a Pair of Scissars. If you get a prudent healthy Wife, your Industry in your Profession, with her good Economy, will be a Fortune sufficient. But if you will not take this Counsel, and persist in thinking a Commerce with the Sex inevitable, then I repeat my former Advice, that in all your Amours you should prefer old Women to young ones. You call this a Paradox, and demand my Reasons. They are these: i. Because as they have more Knowledge of the World and their Minds are better stor'd with Observations, their Conversation is more improving and more lastingly agreable. 2. Because when Women cease to be handsome, they study to be good. To maintain their Influence over Men, they supply the Diminution of Beauty by an Augmentation of Utility. They learn to do a 1000 Services small and great, and are the most tender and useful of all Friends when you are sick. Thus they continue amiable. And hence there is hardly such a thing to be found as an old Woman who is not a good Woman. 3. Because there is no hazard of Children, which irregularly produc'd may be attended with much Inconvenience. 4. Because thro' more Experience, they are more prudent and discreet in conducting an Intrigue to prevent Suspicion. The Commerce with them is therefore safer with regard to your Reputation. And with regard to theirs, if the Affair should happen to be known, considerate People might be rather inclin'd to excuse an old Woman who would kindly take care of a young Man, form his Manners by her good Counsels, and prevent his ruining his Health and Fortune among mercenary Prostitutes. 5. Because in every Animal that walks upright, the Deficiency of the Fluids that fill the Muscles appears first in the highest Part: The Face first grows lank and wrinkled; then the Neck; then the Breast and Arms; the lower Parts continuing to the last as plump as ever: So that covering all above with a Basket, and regarding2 only what is below the Girdle, it is impossible of two Women to know an old from a young one. And as in the dark all Cats are grey, the Pleasure of corporal Enjoyment with an old Woman is at least equal, and frequently superior, every Knack being by Practice capable of Improvement. 6. Because the Sin is less. The debauching a Virgin may be her Ruin, and make her for Life unhappy. 7. Because the Compunction is less. The having made a young Girl miserable may give you frequent bitter Reflections; none of which can attend the making an old Woman happy. 8thly and Lastly They are so grateful!!

JulieB Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Weather is just awful up here today. The wind, more rain...wind...even more rain.. I think we're in for a bad spell of hideous cold as well because the birds are going mad for food & they seem to sense what's coming, I can normally tell. What was lovely today was I had no less than 2 Great Spotted Woodpeckers pecking at the peanut feeder stuck to the kitchen window while I was only about 2 foot away. What a racket they make too...soon as they saw me they flew off but I can hear from the other side of the building when they come back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDon Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Cheer up lads, minger plus 8 pints = someone incredibly attractive. And grateful That's just a myth. Ugly women can get laid just as easily, if not more easily, than good looking women. If anything the ugly bird is doing you a favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
