So...Mr. Fussypants might be avoiding me sulking. But then again, I would too if I was in his (meticulously) shined shoes ( Read more... )

You talking about the "teach a man to fish" thing? Or was eating fish supposed to be a euphemism?

Yeah, that sounds about right! Proverbs were never my thing. Innuendos are far better!

Eating fish would be a pretty bad euphemism! What would it stand for? ...Well it could stand for THAT, but there's much better lines to use.

Do you wa~nt it to be an euphemism? I'm sure I could accommodate!

Innuendos are quite nice, though I've never really had the knack for them. Subtlety isn't exactly something that runs in my family.

Well there's always better lines to use, naturally, but why pass up a classic? As long as one doesn't try to pass it off as something more sophisticated as it really is, I can't see the problem.

That would depend. Do you have a penis?

Subtlety is fun, but its wasted on some people. Being blunt gets things going faster then any fluttering of the eyelashes. What if she was just getting dust outta her eye? Okay sure I'd still flirt with her, but I'd be starting from scratch.

Heh, nothing's more sophisticated then your good ol' drinking song!

I have a penis if you have boobs.

Yes, there's something to be said for clubbing her over the head and dragging her home by her hair. And that was only slightly sarcastic, in case you were wondering. Too much time is wasted trying to figure out what the hell someone means. Much better to come right out and say it.

And yet, a drinking song is nothing without the drinking. An activity which is sadly lacking in this place.

I do have boobs. Two very large ones. Your penis offends them.

You've got a point there. You know what's even harder? Figuring out how someone wants to be treated. Maybe one person would rather have the blunt awful truth while another wants the honeyed lies. How are you suppose to know? Or do you just club everyone over the head so you don't have decided. I guess it creates less double standards that way.

I heard from a little birdy that the docs who run this place keep some of their "special mixes" locked in their studies. Crystal decanters don't look very pretty when locked in drawers after all!

My penis would like to know what it did to offend your stuck up boobs.
