Hmmm... I had a friend who was also GAY GAY GAY, but he would occasionally encourage straight women's crushes on him. Weird.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What's the best way to get temporary tattoo off one's skin? Should I try to dig out the rubbing alcohol?
It's lasted pretty well for a week, really, but it's to the stage where it looks grotty enough to come off. The one that I put just below the hollow under my throat got sweat off in a day, but this one on the back of my forearm is just hanging in there.

Theo, I think that tattoo is telling you that it needs to be permanent.
Love the COMMics! Especially the shrift/Fay one. Hee.

In this case, there was no encouragement, only the most staggering case of obliviousness that I'd been witness to at the tender age of nineteen.
In hindsight, I probably wouldn't have been so surprised by her inability to acknowledge reality if only I'd spent more time working for corporate America first.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Theo, I'd try witch hazel first just because it's not quite so harsh.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Theo, try something oil-based, like lotion. Or, failing that, just use olive/cooking oil.
Seriously.

I'll be the lone voice bought by the chemical-industrial complex and say that acetone will take that bugger right off!

The construction "_______ goodness" has become common enough that googling someone with Goodness for a last name is challenging. And how can an actor (who is listed in IMBD, IBDB, and ITDB) only have one very bad photo of himself on the web? I can find him on a beefcake greeting card in the drugstore but I can't find a decent headshot?

Ann, that's a ferret.
A straight woman having a crush on a gay man isn't inherently full of wrongness. As long as the straight woman realizes that nothing is likely to come of it. The Next Best Thing notwithstanding.
