Posted this in the other question but...
Quick question as I don't know if i'm being out of order or not.

Say your missus was wanting to go to her work Christmas party wearing the kind of dress that you need to use boob tape in order to stay decent. It was a dress you'd helped her choose because you were going to go out together in a few months time on a special night out. You weren't going to be going to the work do and it was going to be earlier than your night out. She looks absolutely storming hot in it.

I can be a bit jealous, so I was wondering if you guys would be ok with that or not?
( Kroney, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 17:33, Reply)

Hmm...
I'm getting picked up in half an hour.
So...
I could sit in a empty room with you, or I could blow the fuck out of homeless people on Fallout...

Bye!

*waves*

EDIT: Kroney, I'm sure it'll be fine. If you've got a good relationship, then there's nothing to worry about. If you haven't, then it'll give you a reason to move on.
( Cawl, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 17:34, Reply)

hmmm
Why should you have a problem with her wearing it if you helped her choose it?

And if she looks hot in it, you can be all smug in the knowledge that she's yours.
(happylittletulip helpless and delicious, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 17:36, Reply)

I agree with tulip,
If you can trust her, then I don't think you need worry.

(I'm assuming her colleagues are safe company, at any rate)

Obviously I can understand why you might be a little put out that you don't get to spend the evening ogling her in said top...but then you are the only one that gets to see her naked.
(LongJohnBaldry, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 17:38, Reply)

I helped her choose it because
I was under the impression that it was for our night out, that's all.

If I'm being out of order, fair enough.

@supreme crow: some of her work colleagues fancy her, we think, but I certainly don't suspect her of anything. There's no chance of that, at all.
( Kroney, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 17:39, Reply)

Ah, sorry, I may have had the wrong end of the stick
I thought the issue was more to do with attracting unwanted male attention.

I don't know...I wouldn't have said you were being out of order, but then it's probably not something to get too worked up about. It's not as if she's doing it to spite you; I presume she just likes the dress.

(Though if it's really that nice then I wouldn't have thought a work do was that much of a special occasion, but there we go...)
(LongJohnBaldry, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 17:43, Reply)

Well
I'm not comfortable with a load of guys ogling her when I'm not about, but I fully recognise that that's my issue to deal with, not hers.

Meh. I'm just being a bit jealous I guess.

Thanks, everyone :)
( Kroney, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 17:45, Reply)

will she still wear it on your night out?
if so, she's getting her money's worth!
(happylittletulip helpless and delicious, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 17:46, Reply)

Haha
That's what she said, HLT :)

I kind of knew I was being a bit out of order, but it's nice to get some unbiased input every now and again.

Gutted.
I just wrote a response to that stella woman telling her why people were trolling her post.
But she deleted it :(

People like that give me the angries.

I had a day teaching a bunch of shit bags.

What news for here?

( Mrs Entity is in hiding., Thu 6 Nov 2008, 18:00, Reply)

I explored!
After my nice lunch I had a wander about & saw some architecture and stuff, then I saw the statue/fountain of the little boy peeing which still makes me giggle!

Now I have a 1/2 litre of Stella and am waiting about 3/4 of an hour before I face passport control and all that jazz.

I'll get back home at about 11:30 which isn't too bad as my local is open till 2 so I can still have a little boogie before bed! :-D

Wish I had a local open till 2..
..drinking's more fun if you start late and go on late.

Think I might get out to the pub now.. hmmm.. I've got my last 8 quid to spend until Monday. It had better get me more than two pints.

I could go back to my old regular pub and enjoy the £1.50 any pint Thursday evening knees-up (freehouse going back generations of family ownership in a no-horse town in the depths of the Midlands) but I fell out with the regulars for being anti-BNP and "posh". They're a bunch of cuntbags.. I really shouldn't go back.

@mrs bin
It was the last answer posted on last weeks QOTW then she posted it again this afternoon. She was entering her baby in a baby of the year contest. She said that some of the other children on there weren't as cute as hers. When some people said it had no relevance to the question and started making bad taste jokes she got defensive and complained about trolls.
If you post anything on a public forum you leave it open to criticism.
I don't agree with such contests. That is just my opinion though, I don't think I'm better than her...Each to her own and all that. I just think she came across as being a hypocrite, that's all.
( wanderlust, Thu 6 Nov 2008, 19:21, Reply)

I went out for pound a pint
yesterday. And then to a pub that is open till 3. I regretted that a little this morning...

Yeah, I saw that post as well - fortunately my steam driven work internet wouldn't let me see any of the pics.

I'm sure the child is 'lovely' - but why post something begging for random strangers to vote for it?

In other news, we're getting very excited for the upcoming visit of a certain lady B3tan 'pantrepreneur' tomorrow. Yay!

Hello everyone.
My twopenneth.


I think the post about the baby competition was funny and sweet. It's not like she was going to win a load of money. Your all far too cynical.


Edit - and Kroney. If you've got a hot girlfriend and she mad about you then for God's sake let her wear what she wants. Then walk around with a smug grin on your face because she's all yours.

Edit 2 - Puts feminist hat on. It's not about ownership, it's about self-esteem.

I do know somebody who got kicked out of Uni for failing her second year exams due to it though.
