1. I have this theory
that it isn't just multiple & frequent postings in "GD:Alito". I am convinced that exclamation marks and all caps suck the bandwidth from the site. It's the gravity of the exclamation marks combined with the width and height and frequency of the caps' use that mean we cannot see our posts or do advanced searches.

Of course, you're free to tell me I'm full of horseshit if you'd like.

;-)

I have an insight, based on your link, as to the source of your malaise.

7. No horseshit; I think you've got a very good point!
I think people keep reloading the page; hoping it was a big data CRC error that caused all those capital letters and continual strings of ! signs...

As for insight, I've been racking my brains. But I can't quite fathom out your riddle, if it is a riddle, regarding your insight into my malaise... :)

I also love it when people speak in riddles as it forces me to think... most people usually tell me "Don't speak in riddles". And how I went from one tangent to the opposite spectrum of that tangent AS a tangent is something I won't fathom until my 6th glass of drambuie... :D

8. Drambuie is like a wonderful, tasty cough syrup!
Yum...

I DID feel compelled to click on your link. So what I saw was an unhappy man finally feeling a surge of pleasure at the non-chafing nature of boxers. That must have broken you out of a painful, restricting and distractive mode. Silk boxers are even better. If that's what you've acquired, it's no wonder you are beside yourself with happiness.

This is what happened to me when I got a down comforter for Xmas! And I'll tell you riddles all you like! :bounce:

11. Oh my bent stars!
I just love riddles!

I saw some silk boxers at Target... pity thay had none with smilie faces and/or giraffes on them... but one did have euphemisms written all over it... :rofl: Another was black with big red and pink hearts... that one must cater to the egocentric men...

13. If you get SILK ones, you won't mind if they have the Power Puff
Girls on them. That is a promise.

Or "Hello Kitty", for that matter. :D

14. ...
Well, the boxers do chafe a teensy bit... still, nothing's pefect... :D

As for the PowerPuff Girls, I love them! :loveya: Well, I don't love them in THAT way because, quite frankly, 6 year old girls with no hands do not turn me on at all... Age them by 22 or so years so and then add on some hands, and then I'd be more interested... :7

BTW: My candle can stay lit for several hours and not go out. :rofl:

23. O, Hellishness!
What fool possibly gave up that sense of humor? And to not get your references as well? WHAT have you been dealing with?

I feel like I'm Daffy Duck, as I think we all identify with one WB character or another. I couldn't be Bugs Bunny. He wins all the time. I make my living in trying. :)

25. Only people who straightened me out, and for all the wrong reasons...
But I'll spare the nuances of that pun for later... :D

Still, I am a teensy bit awkward, so I inherently know they just couldn't deal with me. And I'm appreciative of the previous ex, who was honest and upfront - and whose reasons, most of which, go right back to the Aspie thing. I know he has issues too, but he will find his way - even if it is back to his ex, a woman. I knew deep down he truly loved her. And that's what matters most in a relationship.

26. Well, we could make one up:
:beer:

:D

I saw one earlier that looked like that one, but was a scotch-color liquid... couldn't find it though. :(

I'm assuming you couldn't possibly drink 6 drambuies... Drinking 6 kindred spirits sounds like more than ANYONE could handle! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

3. Posts like "What are you eating tonight"
Because eating is a political act.

6. tomatillo?
Not many people probably consider the appointment of secretary of agriculture to be as critical as the nomination of a supreme court justice.
