hey lucy, what is your take on this? would you say this is an accurate description of what women want in a man?

'Toxic masculinity'? Dude, now America's universities are turning men into women | Fox News

The poll results were not all that surprising. Ladies want a man who loves God and loves his family. They also want a man who, in no particular order:
1. Has a job;
2. Drives a pickup truck;
3. Uses the bathroom standing up;
4. Eats meat;
5. And is willing to carry them out of a burning building.

He sometimes refers to the cloud that surrounds him with pride as the dust of ancient civilizations.[SUP][3][/SUP] He cannot seem to rid himself of the dust for more than the briefest of periods — indeed, in spite of his best efforts, it appears that he cannot stay clean. He is referred to in an early strip as the only person who can get dirty while walking in a snowstorm.[SUP][4][/SUP] Nevertheless, on rare occasions he has very briefly appeared clean, and hence unrecognizable. Once this was in order to impress Violet, of whom he was a bit fond. On another occasion (September 6, 1954), he managed to keep one side of his body clean and presented this clean side to Patty, causing her to believe that he was completely clean.

One notable exception is an earlier strip where he gets caught in a brief but heavy rainfall, and while trying to seek shelter, the storm ends, revealing him to be clean. He responds with disdain, stating that "in one minute the rain has washed away what took me all day to accomplish".

Speaking of football and retirement. How about them Broncos, eh?:grouphug:

 

[jpcavin]

Lucy just wanted to get Charlie Brown's attention. Charlie Brown just wanted to kick the football and be famous. Who knows how things may have turned out had Lucy just let him kick the football? Who knows how things may have turned out had Charlie Brown paid attention to Lucy and not worry about being famous? In the end, neither got what they wanted.

Here's to you, Charlie Brown. Enjoy your fame. Lucy out!

The End. Go home folks. Nothing left to see here.

All I know is that this is Lucy's thread and she owns the football.....something Charlie Burrrrro_wn seems to forget once in a while..

I don't get it..Maybe if you just refer to one another with respect and not try to be cute with slang, slander or sexual innuendos, that harmony will once again prevail...Just saying

That is all....Thanks for letting me visit for a while, cya's

Ok Jason, no need to give you a nickname that may last you the rest of your life. There is a simple solution to fixing your broke azz. The best way to fatten your wallet is to borrow money from a pessimist, he won't expect it back. That's it. Short and simple. Nothing but the best for you.

 

[jpcavin]

I wonder if this means I should be called BFBG (Big Fat Bald Guy) or BAB (Broke Azz Bastard) or perhaps just shorten my name to Wallet...

Jason the beggar, the beggar-nator, beggar-ino, beggar-ita, beg-beg-beg-beg-beggar-ann, beg-her. But I prefer to call you TBC(The Big Cheese)

[burrocrat]

I've been thinking. If he REALLY likes her, wouldn't he want to call her something more endearing and near his heart?
How about one of these: Chippy-lita, Chippy Maria, Chiquita, Burr-lita

Anyway, you get the idea. Let me know if you need more ideas.

thanks, but naah. i think i'll stick with lil miss sugar pants, why fix somethin not broken? as george jefferson used to say "ain't nuthin wrong with that".

hey lucy...

if a boy likes a girl, when is the best time for him to tell her that his pet nickname for her is 'little miss sugar pants'?

Why is time relevant? Does he need to ask his parents for permission?

Brings me to another morsel of wisdom.....Intention

Be what you are not what you want. Let your energy manifest itself through the process of giving, of allowing, of offering and of serving. Neither asking "what's in it for me" nor expecting anything back.

“Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth ‘you owe me.’”

The Power of Intention

Must remember to NOT check this thread at work...

Yes, this isn't a place to stash Buro's porn, maybe he should buy another hard drive since his PC is full.

In regards to the very nice article about "The silent treatment" I think the best way to punish your significant other is to take them to bed. Afterwards you can ask me for anything and I will be too tired to care...
