Levis Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 ^ Yes < I don't throw out old nail polish bottles that are over and done with because I like the colours v Do you like to think? do you think you overthink? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 ^ Hmmm, I may have to think about that one. Actually I do like to think and no, I've never been guilty of overthinking. I'm rather decisive. < I think, therefore I am. v Do you understand existentialism? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 ^ Yes. It´s very French and very "Mai 68", we were soaked into that in high school. Not that I fully agree though... And you? V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 ^ Yes... I just learnt about it last week. < And I don't have to learn it again for quite some time methinks v what do you like to learn about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 ^ music > thats why I love hanging around here. Learn something new about all kinds of bands and their songs v Do you like learning new things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 ^ I do. > And I don't. Depends on if the "things" are good or bad... V Don't you hate learning bad things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 ^ Depends on what you mean by "bad" > I don't mind learning anything. I don't fear anyone other than my parents. Besides, most bad things have something good, too. v Do you ever see the silver lining on the darkest of clouds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 ^ Ever? Yes. > Sometimes, though, I can't, no matter how much I want to. V What's a bad situation that you've been able to put a positive twist on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 ^ All of my possessions being burned in that fire where I used to live. > Had I not moved I wouldn't be here and I have been buying cd's that I would have never even taken a second look at V Same question as Shawna...

Uncle Joe Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 ^ I didn't know the lyrics to a particular song (bad) and I ended up here at SF. < SF, easily the most positive thing that's ever happened to me on a computer. V Same question for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 ^ hmmmm... well, I don't know if it's a "bad" situation... > My boyfriend is going to San Diego this weekend to visit his family, and since I can't go with him, I'm thinking he's probably going to be telling everyone about me. V Once a person hits my age (ancient) I wonder if the term "boyfriend" is a little... weird. Do you have a term that would seem a little more grown-up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 ^ I think boyfriend is fine. Most of the other terms seem forced. "My guy" for example, sounds possessive while "my girl" doesn't. Or is that just me? < Please, just don't call him your "partner". v Maybe you have some better ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 ^ No. "Boyfriend" sounds fine. Why old people can´t have a boyfriend? Everybody does, it has nothing to do with age. I´m the oldest woman around here and I would have a boyfriend if I wasn´t maried... Do you think love and age have something to do? V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 ^ Perhaps. I think that older people think of "boyfriend" as being adolescent. < The guy/girl I'm seeing? Is he your boyfriend? Man friend? When my father-in-law was dating (in his 60's) he called her his lady friend. v I'm even more convinced that "boyfriend" is most acceptible. You?

_Laurie_ Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ Sure, boyfriend should be fine < A guy I work with, who is also in his 60's, also says lady friend... V I don't think man friend sounds good at all though, don't you agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ I agree. > I agree with all of your comments. And besides, when you think about it, men are just older boys, only physically more mature. V Who do you think is more competitive with each other, in general: men or women? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ Men, cause they´ve been competitive for 10.000 years now. That´s mucho training... Women have just begun to behave like competitive men in the last 50 years but first thing we care about is peace and food for our children. Do you agree?

Rayzor Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ Nope > Have you ever seen a cat-fight? Women are competitive, but they are usually just more "subtle" than guys about how they compete with each other V agree?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ No. This applies for another specie than humans. I was referring to men and women, not cats or wolves or insects. Do you agree? V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) ^ Nope > Cat-fight is two women fighting. I wasn't referring to animals. But I still say women compete and have been for a long time. Even the June Cleaver's of the world were in competition with the neighbor over who had the best kids and the neatest house. Women also compete when it comes to husbands: why do you think they all like doctors?

SoulGirl Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ nope, but i am thinking that with all the 'agree?/disagree?' questions it's becoming a little bit like the true or false thread! < my gran's in her 80s and she always jokes about her 'gentleman friends'. i think boyfriend is fine, although i can see why you might feel weird about it. there just doesn't seem to be a better alternative. maybe we should make up a new term? like adult-male-companion! or grown-up boyfriend? or you could just go cork and call him your fella! v can you think of a new term?

Rayzor Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ No I can't > Unless they don't mind using "good-time pal". I think boyfriend works fine at any age. Although lady friend sounds so classy the other way around. V Anyone know why my back is itchy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ No and we don't care. We aint gonna scratch your back even if you are Slim Harpo. < For the record since I didn't get to add my two cents on this: Women are the most competitve creatures on earth...with each other. So let it be written, so let it..... v Are you googling Slim Harpo yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 ^ No > But now that you mention it... V Do you Google everything you don't know anything about when you see it on the boards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
