Litiquette VII

[Sundayschild]

I thought men on Lit had harems and women had stables.

What does it mean if you Uber?

Quickies are always good.

 

[Endless_Night]

Apparently there are rules lol

That…was all kinds of fascinating.

This part made me laugh: "Topics concerning the throwing, hitting, or kicking of a ball does not qualify as conversation."

Oh…..

That makes perfect sense and is probably somewhere in the Official Lit Rules. It is also completely unsurprising that I am the last to know.

Per usual.

 

[Trixxii]

I'm the only one - but
I do pay someone else to do things that I consider guy things
weekly lawn maintenance
snowplowing the driveway
it's not that I won't do them.. it's that I

ok.. if I can pay someone else to do them.. that's how it's going down

oh.. and I do my own taxes
:::wiggly eyebrows:::

I'm the same way.
Although. I can be a moody bitch.
That's when male type grunt work becomes fun for me.
Especially if it involves power tools and/or demolition.

The most fun when it comes to filthy grunt work is when you intentionally get to tear something down in order to complete another project.

It's springtime. Shouldn't we be talking about plowing gardens now? They have great machinery out there these days, so even the ladies can buy a nice rig and plow another woman's flowerbed.

It was snowing here this morning.

LOL I laughed too. That could be super challenging for some.

 

[GiggLeGasm]

I like when "filthy grunt work" means "sex"
this whole lawn care thing..

hold on.. I need to talk with Trekka a minute

 

[Endless_Night]

It's possible we're dating ourselves, Sassy. It's all gaming these days.

I was at one of those fancy dress-for-brunch brunch places. (Back when one was still able to go to brunch. *sighs*) There was an early 30s couple at a table nearby. There was also a certain amount of…bickering going on, and at one point when there happened to be one of those lulls in surrounding conversation, the female participant said, very clearly:

"Why can't we ever go out to eat like normal people and for once - ONCE, ONCE, ONCE - not have to talk about your stupid MTG."

A silence fell upon the room.

Someone coughed uncomfortably.

Conversation renewed in a stilted manner.

The only ones who didn't seem embarrassed were the couple in question.

Seriously, though, that was not the only time I've been privy to couples arguing about one of the party's gaming habits. It's like…a thing. To do. In public.




(For those not in the know, MTG = Magic: The Gathering. )

 

[QuietCanadian]

I want to know more about MTG.

 

[Dribble]

The couple was just having a MTG moment...Marjorie Taylor Greene moment.

haha I was going to have to ask what MTG was. Now don't get me wrong.. I have a Nintendo Switch. But I bought that with needing to kill hours at a time for Chemo. But now, it's fun for trips and my husband takes it when he takes me to appointments and can't go in. So he sits in the car and plays that. I'll always love Zelda and Mario.. well. Technically any of the classics. Pac Man, Donkey Kong, Frogger.. Etc

Yeah more women own Xboxes than men do these days. Also I know plenty of women who really love sports. With the Internet, you can easily find people online of both sexes who are into your hobbies. I don’t know if you can collect a whole harem or stable full of likeminded individuals, but I suppose if you try hard enough you could.

After years of listening to my husband scream at the TV.. I had to at least understand why he was yelling "FLANK EM, FLANK EM"

But I did enjoy College sports. Just not so much of the professional sports. And I stopped watching professional when they started taking a Knee. Do it on your own time. Not during your million dollar paid "Job"

 

[Corbal]

More titties.

GO!

That's obviously my best guess.

 

[hairball18]

More titties.

GO!

That's obviously my best guess.

I like your thinking.

 

[QuietCanadian]

More titties.

GO!

That's obviously my best guess.

Now that I can get behind.

 

[Corbal]

Now that I can get behind.

If you get behind titties, you're technically inside the body.

I wouldn't recommend that because you're really only getting to play with fatty breast tissue.

*shrugs

To each their own.

< I don’t know if you can collect a whole harem or stable full of likeminded individuals, >

*ears perk*

How intriguing.

Mine would be full of Golden Age Detection enthusiasts! A passion for discussing obscure details on the fiction of Chandler, Allingham, Queen, Carr, Bentley, Chesterton, Stout, Christie, Sayers, Maaaaarsh -

*runs out of breath*

Other Prerequisites:

-Ability to propose at least five solutions of egress for any locked-room mystery.
-Have a theory on why the Continental Op never flourished in film.
-Produce an informed opinion on the Sayers/Cournos book duel.
-Discuss the respective merits of Christie vs March.


I could go on.

But I won’t.


*returns the conversation to breasts*

Alright
It’s been a minute since I asked a question around here
Let’s dig deep:

What do we think about hickies?
Giving, receiving?
Got any good hickie stories?

Probably more so as a teen in the backseat of my car on a secluded lover’s lane, with me being the giver.

The best story was an ex coming to visit me and some good hate sex happening and sending her back with a good one on her breast.

I didn’t bruise at all when I was in my teens and twenties. So I never got one that was visible. The only really good one I got was hidden inside my underwear and actually a little uncomfortable for a while. But it was sure some good sex.

Why do I need to be marked like that? Or you? Holding your hand in public isn't enough? Giving you access to my phone isn't enough? Or my computer? Treat someone like territory? A piece of property? Nope...not happening.

Story? Ask my first wife what happens. I walked away for almost 6 months before we were married. She asked if she could give me a hickie. I said no. She said she wouldn't...then tried. Left a small mark. I got dressed and left. I told her it was a trailer park move. She laughed until she figured out I wasn't playing a game.

We talked about it several months later. I told her it wasn't about us...but about rubbing it in another person's face that we both knew liked me. She admitted it. And that she struggled with self confidence. And we moved on.

What do I think when I see them on adults? Same thing...but it is their life...doesn't reflect on me. Kids? Lol...duh...part of the game growing up.

I haven’t had one for a long while, usually a light mark that’s out of sight. Gone in a day.
Giving one- oh man. No clue.
I reserve my sucking and nibbling skills where marks don’t usually show.

I went to HS with a girl that you could put money on, every Monday it looked like a vampire and his four friends feasted on her all weekend. Dark purple ones all over her neck too, the man could suck like a mofo.

What would you recommend? AFAF.

Once in a blue moon they kind of happen when unplanned, no? Not that I have any good stories. I can't remember actually ever having one, though probably when far younger. I'm with SMN, usually the marks (if any) are in less noticeable areas. But there is something about that spot where the neck meets the shoulder. I could see that happening unintentionally.

Do you think they are more frowned upon during covid? "Did you see Jamie's hickie on the Zoom call? Someone's not following stay at home orders."

I don't find them attractive. Especially in visible parts. Adults who walk around with them kind of make me cringe. If for whatever reason you feel the need to mark me. Do it where I can cover it. Then it's between you and me. Not you, me, and the rest of the population that sees me.
Even as a Teen. I was not real fond of them. I wasn't into being "Marked" Now as an adult. There is a little bit of a thrill. But, I think it's the kinky mind frame of being marked. So again. Where it can be hidden.

 

[Endless_Night]

Eh. I am going to side with the Hickies are Icky group.

That's a thing, right?
