I love that Daria one.![]()
I got bored one day and started making memes to pass the time.

I don't know where you're from, but there are places in the American South where men and women call each other pet names when they're just transacting business at a grocery store or a bank. It's simply customary.
Tell us who it is, and we will tell you who he’s e-banging.
I do that on the boards quite often.
I never think of it as "claiming" someone though, just a turn of phrase.
Is that how folks here see that?
Santa’s horde of elves are checking his list for that kinda info. They just have to know all the gossip.![]()
I don’t like to be called pet names unless I’m your pet. Or, unless I know you well enough that it’s a joke. Some rando calling me sweetie would put me off.
Luckily, no one calls me names to my face except MissHnD, and meh.
It’s not really about the pet name itself but the “my” part before it. The “taking ownership” of them or “claiming” them feeling just makes me uncomfortable. I’m totally good with calling my cashier sweetheart if they deserve it, but I’m not going around calling them MY sweetheart. That would have a completely different connotation.
I don’t
I say similar things and it’s just meant to be endearing, I can’t imagine that anyone would assume I’m laying claim or marking my territory...I’ve been said “there’s my girl/guy” and just meant it as a silly flirt and nothing more

At least I’m honest and upfront.![]()
Some toss around pet names and compliments like candy and mean none of it other than casual affection. I don’t have a problem with that.
Some have meaningful connections with multiples. I’m ok with that too.
Some treat women as interchangeable.. THAT makes me uncomfortable. Everyone is worth being recognized as a unique person with their own value.
But it is grimly amusing when a guy posts "Princess?" and six different women appear to answer, "Yes, ***?"Some toss around pet names and compliments like candy and mean none of it other than casual affection. I don’t have a problem with that.

If a guy openly claims multiple other people in threads here (saying things like “my dear,” or “my sweet girl” commonly) does that make others as uncomfortable as it does me? Maybe it’s just another one of those things I don’t understand.
I treat objects like women.
You don’t fuck them either?
Yeah, fresh out of fucks, bitch.
Doesn’t make me too uncomfortable... It just puts them in that leg humper category to which a large number of the guys here seem to belong.
I find it odd that any girl would take compliments from those types seriously. Any girl who posts her pic is hot and beautiful and perfect, as they’re pressing their penises against the computer screen. I realize there are fans of every type here. And I don’t think that’s a bad thing, necessarily. But there is a lack of sincerity in such a compliment. Am Pics is filled with these types.
Sometimes I see the delusion spring further and the girls think these guys are really interested in their thoughts and musings. There was one such delusional poster who was sure that the guys in her Am Pic thread were there to read and hear about her thoughts.And if she removed her pics, they would surely still come around to read her writings.
I get why people flirt here and that’s cool. But telling everyone who posts their tits that she’s perfect just seems lame.
Never thought of myself as a "leg humper," but I do identify as a dog sometimes, so I suppose it fits.
I agree with you that everyone posting in AmPics is brave, if a little needful of attention and positive feedback [which is one reason I have a thread there], but it seems shabby to shame the people who offer that attention and feedback.
As for a woman posting her thoughts and thoughts alone, it would really depend on the writing.
That’s one of the reasons I stopped posting my face and body in AMPics. Same old song and dance from the same old tired crew. Thread after thread.
Plus, a stalker who made me button it all down.
I just don’t take anyone seriously anymore that won’t be a part of my life outside of lit. And if you’re not part of my life, keep your pet names.
One funny thing. A woman awhile back wrote a Dear Lit that she signed “insert atypical pet name here”
I was like, wow, he calls her that, too? Then a few of my friends were like, no, he calls me that! No... me!
Turns out, he called most of us that.
Sad that she thought it was just for her. Sad that we all did.
Now I can laugh, but at the time it pissed me the fuck off.
