Manners people. Manners.
Maybe it's just me, but I think it's just a little out of line when a man (and total stranger) sends you an IM and asks how big your cock is.
I mean REALLY now. Where does this guy come off?
Like I'm gonna say anything other than HUGE.
Though clearly not as big as his balls.
The inquiry was even made AFTER I told him I wasn't gay - a fact that remains true regardless of my recent choice for a Halloween costume. Funny thing is, despite the audacity of his advance, I wasn't pissed. I wasn't even shocked. Surprised and mildly offended at best. This is what IP blocking is for afterall. But what gives me pause is the breakdown of social and behavioral boundaries that comes from human interaction in a digital environment which is defined by it's lack thereof.
It makes me kinda nervous. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I still like the idea of a dinner and a movie before anyone inquries about the size of my junk.

I have a t-shirt that says,"Think 'The Grand Canyon'".
Not really, but they do have those iron-on letters.

and brent, i'm happy to be your guide for all things female, but i guarantee i'm probably just as confused as you.

You have to be a geek (or at least know html) to enjoy this, but I really do have a t-shirt that says in the appropritate area:
<tits>
</tits>
Note to self, have boxers made for TMJ which has on the front:
<15inches>
</15inches>
Also, send a blow up doll along with said boxers, since they will scare off all but the most insane of size queens.

i was just thinking the other day about when i first met you in person at your b-day party and how, despite the fact that i was lugging three huge trays of intoxicated jello goodness up a tall flight of stairs, the first thing that popped into my head was "CHECK OUT THE UNIT ON THAT GUY!"

Okay, I'm a little confused. Are you saying that that guy has really huge balls or that you have an incredibly small penis? Dude, you left yourself open on that one, man.

Maybe he just really wanted to know.
So how big is it?

like i said. this is the internet. the answer is ALWAYS huge.

Jooooy - it's 15 inches. Jeesh. Didn't you read my post? Or haven't you noticed the way Jimbo has that strange, slightly unsteady walk of his? You probably thought he was just tipsy all the time or something - but it's not that. He's just encumbered. Poor man.

kris, if no one else will give you props, I loved your t-shirt post. good stuff, that. :}
And I think the word you were searching for was "blessed" not "encumbered". ;)

You want dinner and a movie?
*sheesh*

DUH! Silly me! Sorry Kris, you are right...I thought he was tipsy...all the jell-o shot posts ya know..., bad Joy for not reading properly. 15 inches. Wow, the internet does interesting things to people who spend too much time here, poor, blessed Jimbo! I hope it isn't too hard of a burden for you to carry! LOL! I mean really think of all the women who could have happiness at their fingertips because of you...well in their hands anyway since 'fingertips' would be a bit tough to manage. Wow Jimbo, I hope you are up to the task!
Maybe The Jumbo Jimbo would be more appropriate! Or maybe The Supersized Jimbo...nah, I like the sound of Mighty. It makes one think that the job will get done no matter what!
