If that's where you read it, then it was probably accompanied by a doctored graphic of Calvin pissing on [your chosen symbol to denigrate here].

My avatar, of course, is an unauthorized homage to Hobbes and to Maxwell audio products. Like Calvin's activities on the back of pickup trucks across America, this image is not licensed by Bill Watterson either. However, it is an indicia of taste and of good breeding, like nice shoes.

No. It was a Sunday strip that involved Calvin and Hobbes walking through a forest in the autumn.

I may be misremembering what nasty thing he had to say about people, though. It may have been "I hate people."

I find that getting older helps in the "lasting longer" department.

So what if it isn't necessarily pretty.

It's not all about the $$ per se, but a man who wears nice shoes (and has them polished and doesn't walk the heels off and doesn't have tattered laces) will typically have come to a realization that money spent properly isn't stupid. I'm still not being clear - just think about yourself. If I saw you in a bar with your Guccis, I wouldn't necessarily say anything, but I would give you the time of day waay before I would waste my time talking to a guy who wore some ratty old adidas.
In other words - if you want to get lucky don't buy shoes at Payless (or at whatever chain of discount shoe stores happens to be in your area).

No doubt. But if you're going to look at it that way, lacrosse players will probably check you with their stick, soccer players will spend their time using nothing but their feet and basketball players will waste your time dribbling before dunking it into the hole. Maybe they should stick to swimmers who are all about the breast stroke and lapping.

I think you need to insert "with NFH, [name of other poster with money obsession], [name of another person with money obession], [name of still another person with money obsession], [repeat as necessary] or [name of a person with money obsession]" between "get lucky" and "don't buy."

Maybe this is your perfect escape from the law, Mr. Happy.

I'm just saying - this is how the girls talk (the ones I know anyway). If you don't think a girl notices when a guy has walked the heels off his shoes, or walked the hem off his pants, think again.
I didn't think I'd ever say this, but you should go back to just quoting other people's work.

You are a cheeky punster, but in my experience you are quite right about swimmers.

I could have married a lax player, but he had an unbelievably hairy back and I didn't want to do that to my future sons. (It's a foul truth I speak.)

Dissent. No offence. Except for the looking physically good part.

Oddly enough, almost all the male swimmers I knew were either gay or socially stunted. Very few were people I'd want to hang out with outside of practice and meets. I stopped swimming competitively in college. At my school swimming was the true social geek sport.

Butterfly a speciality.

Santa in a Speedo
 
Anyone in Boston this weekend? Any of the FB Boys care to run?

http://santaspeedorun.com/Pictures/p...%20Bound-2.jpg

Saturday, December 13 the 4th Annual Santa Speedo run on Newbury St. Interview here.

Proof that very few men should wear Speedos. Heck, even the swimmers aren't wearing them anymore.

Can the name of this thread be changed to "Fashion Board Needing a Tittle"? That's how I keep reading it and then I have to do a double-take and it's annoying me.

I simply cannot keep up with you East Coasties and your euphemisms for sex acts.
