Buffy ,'Dirty Girls'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Um. Is this gal in a wedding dress in her pictures? [link] It sure looks like it. Nothing against divorced folk. But it's an interesting choice for pictures on a dating site, no?
Yes. I looked at the full shot and it is most definitely a wedding gown, w/ train. Bold choice. She should really put up some candids instead of her posed wedding photos. Wierd. And since her profile doesn't specify divorced/widowed/open marriage that would send up a million red flags for me.
But lo, i am picky.
oh no. I had lots of red flags on that one. Is it normal to have that many solo shots of the bride? Maybe she modeled for a bridal magazine. Not going to ask to find out. Too. Many. Red. Flags!
On looking again, she says that she's looking for "anybody" for "friends" so maybe she doesn't realize it's a dating site? Maybe she's just looking for gaming buddies?

I'm trying to parse that theme. Was she marrying in the midst of glorious revolution?
bt for the win!
Good luck with finding someone, omnis.
Great painting, Aims. And the room... big! (Or is the dog small?)
As for commas, I don't care: even though I learned to leave the comma outside of the quotation marks, as long as there is uniformity in the usage of it I'm a happy girl.
Started looking for a part time job (because I need to save money somehow to visit all of you!), and I just sent my resume to something I'd really like to do, so ~ma would be very appreciated.
Or is the dog small?
The dog is small. Like his brain.
Well, at least he's pretty.
I'm with Hec and omnis on the comma, sorry.
Definitely a wedding dress. Definitely a bizarre choice for a pic on a personals site. BTW, I don't think of OKCupid as exclusively a hookup site. I think it can be used for meeting friends, even if hookups are the main thing most people seem to be looking for.
Got MASSIVE headache from drinking OJ (first time ever for that) and had no choice but to go to bed early. Woke up at 3am. Couldn't get back to sleep. Gronk.
"Our forefathers fought a war so that we could put the comma inside the quotation marks. Don't let their sacrifices be in vain!"
Actually, I think it makes more sense outside, as does other punctuation that is not part of what you're quoting, but I had a boss once who sent the above to everyone in the office, and I sort of loved him for it.
