Litiquette3

I actually still weird out at some of the fetishes ...

It's normalised my kinks a little though ...and padded out my flirting

 

[Paul_Chance]

I'm comfortable with my own kinks (but, I was before I ever came here). There are still things that weird me out here on Lit, but it is pretty easy to just move quietly around those threads, don't make eye contact, and don't draw attention, LOL.

There are things I still don't understand that are sometimes illuminated by Lit, but, sometimes, someone will open up and explain things and I'll broaden my horizons a little bit at a time.

Eggs frighten me. They are little tiny dinosaur embryo's - and we freaking fry them and eat them! What the hell? (Try not to think of eggs, try not to think of eggs. Go to your happy place.)

If it's something I like, it's totally sexy. If it's something I dislike... freaks!

So yesterday was a much lighter tone, which was nice to see. Although, I did really enjoy Dutch's question from the other day.

I assume Lit has broadened most people's horizons. How comfortable are you with your new found kinks and deviant behaviour? Is it surprising? Do some of them still weird you out? Or have you accepted your behaviour, you sick fuckers?

Overall I'm kind of vanilla but over the years I've learned to love a little bit of kink. I don't know if I've ever actually discovered anything new here. But nothing really phases me for the most part.

Your welcome.

Someone posted something in the GB that brought me back to my high school and middle/high school days. It got me to being all nostalgic and shit.

Back in those days, you would give a girl your class ring or letter jacket to basically take a piss over the other person so people would know they are taken. It was the engagement ring of high school.

My question is this...

Well, there are a few.

1. Did you ever receive anything like that?
2. Is this just an American thing?
3. How do you feel about things like that now? At Lit? In your every day life? Is it possessive or endearing?

Back in my day it meant "going together ". I had the Letterman jacket and high school rings. I think it might be a North American thing.

I find it endearing. I've always liked showing that I'm taken. Or maybe I just like showing

I did have my high school boyfriend's class ring and his varsity jacket- it was a pretty big deal.

These days I would say I'm significantly less overt, but still like being possessive/claimed. In subtle ways, though, instead of an enormous jacket and ring.

 

[Lord Pmann]

I wasn't a jock in high school. So I didn't have a letter jacket. And I certainly wasn't giving my class ring to any girl. I didn't like anyone enough at that point to do that when I had a class ring. I did think it was kind of cute though.

There is something nice about the possessive nature, so long as it's not batshit crazy.

Thandi's post made me laugh about "going together". That terminology is sorely missed as an old, crusty adult. There was also "going steady". I suppose that means making it Facebook official these days.

Did it suddenly turn into 1950? That Ricky Nelson was gorgeous though, and Id wear anything he asked me to.

In high school (late 80s/early 90s) no one would give anyone their rings or letterman jackets. They're expensive yo! And anyway, I had my own letterman jacket I earned for my years on varsity, thankyouverymuch.

I am not one for possessiveness, generally. On Lit, it most noticably manifests as that pissing all over someones thread - marking territory by posting things that show you clearly have a connection with the thread owner. Inside jokes, or posting that you've seen a preview of pictures she hasn't posted yet, or that you talked to her offline, etc. And I can't stand that shit. People who use me/my thread to boost their own egos and show off a connection someone else doesn't have with me is tacky. And the fastest way to get me to drop you.

 

[Lord Pmann]

Yes. A simpler time, where the guys would take girls out for a soda and finger them in the back of their parents' 1957 Chevy.

I like simple. And that sounds like a perfect date, if you ask me. Just sayin'.

How do you feel about Toyota Corollas? Lol

I did the whole letterman jacket, class ring thing - and then broke up with her on prom night for which she returned the ring and jacket. The jacket she threw on the parking lot and stomped on, the ring she quite accurately bounced off my head. We then followed it up with a brawl in the parking lot between me, the guy she had been seeing and her cousin. To top the night off I spent it in the county jail. Ah, the joys of growing up in small town America! (Hahaha - actually, it was a hell of a night, I enjoyed it, with the exception of the sleeping on the concrete floor of the jail.) Alcohol may have been involved. To paraphrase Little_Sister in another thread "Stay Classy Nebraska".

Happy VD Fuckers.

I'll be back next week with questions, but I wanted to let my servants know that you are not forgotten!

Best wishes on your yearly mandated sex night.

 

[Paul_Chance]

Happy VD Pmann. May your incurables be cured.

1 No, because:
2 It is an American thing.
3 My feelings about it haven't changed, I still get a goofy smile on my face if I read about it in a book or see it in a film.

At Lit: I find little declarations in peoples sig-lines or title endearing. Mind I said "little declarations".

In every day life: the same. A friend showing off the (cheap) necklace she got from her husband on a day out paints that same goofy smile on my face. It is just sweet.

I wasn't a jock in high school. So I didn't have a letter jacket. And I certainly wasn't giving my class ring to any girl. I didn't like anyone enough at that point to do that when I had a class ring. I did think it was kind of cute though.

Oh yes, "going together" wasn't half as serious as "going steady"! If in my time a couple of youngsters was going steady they would buy friendship's rings for each other. Little silver rings ...

 

[RubenesqueAphrodite]

I did not date in middle, high school nor college. I had *maybe* one or two boyfriends that weren't really *boyfriends*...

I envied the girls who got the Letterman jackets and rings, though. Of course the same group of kids seemed to change girl/boyfriends every couple of weeks. So, while the idea is nice, to me anyway, it seemed more like a "young couple swap meet" and the meaning behind the exchanges was lost on me.

The few couples that did stay together long enough to make it mean something, I respected and thought very highly of them.

*strolls in with robe half open*

What's shakin' amigos? Your king has been dick deep in spreadsheets this last week. You'd think a king would have someone to do that shit for him.

Anyway, I have been introduced to something called the vanity search. Meaning, you run a search on your name to see what people have posted about you. Someone mentioned that I was mentioned in the NAL thread (it was a compliment on my delightful narcissism) and told me to do a vanity search. I had never heard of that.

Am I the last one on earth to think of that? I mean, I'm pretty vain. How did I miss this?

If you have, were you ever upset with the findings?

 

[SmileyGirl]

WTF is a vanity search ?

I can't believe you never did a vanity sweep! My dear king, our great leader, our famous half open robe wearer, you do know we praise you on every thread we visit, don't you?

I had heard about it, and I did a few searches years ago, because I was curious where my name (RL one of course) would shine up.

Here I haven't done it. I am perfectly satisfied if a "yes" appears under my posts in the "have you stalked" thread.

 

[Lord Pmann]

Where you search your own name.

I typed in Bradley Coop... I mean, pmann into the search function in the thread and I saw all mentions of me. Most people either want to go clothes or sex toy shopping with me or they find my narcissism delightful. I haven't yet searched my name on the forum yet.

I honestly never thought to do that. Again, that is odd, as I'm rather vain.

I have done it on google. But I meant on Lit. I mean, you search my real name on Google and you find all my movies and charity work and talents and the like. But I just meant on Lit.
