Best. Experiment. Ever.

Box Oil: totally random and weird thought:
Box Oil: strap-on physics: how does the physics of a woman's thrust differ vis a vis the difference between a man and a woman's center of gravity?
Box Oil: (no, I have NO idea where that came from)

Bug: Hmm.. I'm not so sure I think the difference is center of gravity as much as .. where the strap-on "hits" on the woman.. they sort of *have* to sit up a bit higher than an actual dick sits.. because the cock really starts way below the parts we see.

Box Oil: yeah! the points on the body are in different spots.
Box Oil: I really think this needs to be verified scientifically
Box Oil: :p

Bug: ROFL.. ok. ;x

Box Oil: think I should apply for some funding?

Bug: Yet a woman's center of gravity is *way* below a guy's center of gravity.

Box Oil: yeah, way way below.

Bug: Sure. Go for it. I wanna read *that* grant proposal.

Box Oil: best. experiment. ever.

Bug: LOL!
Bug: May I Please post this on AskBug, and if I do, how do you want to be identified?

Box Oil: hahaha, I suppose you can. Identify me as Box Oil.

Bug: Ok. Box Oil it shall be. ;x
Bug: I mean really.. that's just a *classic* AskBug sort of bizarre question. ;x

Box Oil: oh yeah... it's totally weird.
Box Oil: only a special blend of nerd and perv can ask that question. :x

Bug: hehehehehe. :)
Bug: I guess we should all be glad you're here to fill that role? ;x

Box Oil: hahahaha

Don't Throw Out The Box!

Christine: And the other day....when we were looking at my battery stats...one of the things was "cycles" and mine was so much higher than yours....is that how many times my battery has been left to die and then recharged? That is scary because I really think (thought!) I never need to recharge because it's always plugged in. (And yet it's not now either!)

Bug: Yes, that's exactly what it is.. but your machine is much older than mine is too.

Christine: right ... I've had it since the beginning of June.

Bug: Why the heck isn't it plugged in? ;)

Christine: Plugger (sorry, PA) is over there and I'm over here ;)

Bug: well.. move it. Use the extension plug that came with the MacBook Pro to give you more distance.

Christine: extension plug? er..maybe it's in the box? LOL ::ducks:: be nice

Bug: Yes.. you know how the white power brick has a removable plug on it? (the part that plugs into the outlet).. there is, in the box, a replacement cord with plug on it that gives you about twice the distance from the outlet.. the cord is attached to a replacement plug for the power brick.

Christine: haha..going to look.. crazy.

Christine: There are two things about this that irritate the hell out of me...

Christine: 1. I'm a smart girl. I should have been able to figure out what that was when I put it in my magical box of extra things (cables, pluggers, etc)

Christine: 2. when in Detroit, I saw some guy using a computer that looked just like mine and I was jealous over the length of his cord....I remember thinking, "I’ll have to look for one just like that!"

Christine: I have been pissy since JUNE about the short length of the cord! (I know that's three things.)

Bug: LOL, I really thought it *was* pretty obvious what it was. ;)

Christine: man. LOL

Christine: well...I was probably all excited...and just did the basic thing..and tossed everything into the box I never look into ;)

Christine: I'm a smart girl, dammit! LOL

Bug: Now, how is that the computer's fault? ;)

Christine: I'm also now a very happy girl :D

Bug: hehe.. is it plugged in? ;)

Christine: I can move alllll over my space now :)

Christine: Yes :D

Christine: LOL..thank you (again!)

Bug: The short one is fine if you never move it or have plenty of room on your powerstrip.. but I find the longer one MUCH nicer.

Christine: yesssssss

Christine: I'm just irritated with myself....how many times did I try to go an extra two inches to have the magnetic plugger thing pop right out? TOO MANY, that's how many! ROFL

Bug: well.. the MagSafe connector is, I think, *brilliant*.. no more pulling the computer off a desk by yanking on the cord, etc.

Christine: oh yes...we had someone trip at the office (another issue altogether) on a power cord and it ended up screwing up the clippy part

Bug: the clippy part? Care to define the "clippy part"?

Christine: the part on the computer the the pluggy part goes into, of course :)

Bug: the power port?

Christine: yes :)

Bug: Gotcha. :)

A Rubbery Question...

Aginor: hmm
Aginor: you who are slightly kinky
Aginor: got any ideas of what's good to write on rubber with?
Aginor: ;)
Aginor: preferably non-permanent to make it even worse
Bug: Hmm, if you need it to show up underwater.. maybe one of those metallic paint markers. Oh, wait. Non-perm. Does it need to stay on in the water at all?
Aginor: nope
Aginor: it's just for me to write on my rubber suit with
Bug: I'd use a post-it note and a regular pen. ;)
Aginor: so that the guy repairing it will know where to start looking
Aginor: hmm good diea
Aginor: idea even
Bug: Or some kind of tape (paper first-aid/bandage tape comes to mind).. that isn't terribly sticky/won't leave residue, again, with a normal pen/marker)
Aginor: yup
Aginor: no problems there
Aginor: thanks :)
Aginor: you rock my small self-centered universe **
Bug: You're welcome, though my kinks didn't really come into play there, just practicality. ;x
Bug: (can I post this on Askbug? It's a funny question)
Aginor: sure
Aginor: but please make a note that my rubber suit is actually a dry suit for scuba diving.
Aginor: and then you don't need to rename me ;)
Aginor: I'm not too open about my fetishes ,)

Hippychick...

Inz: how do I go about finding some weed-smoking openminded hippie girl I can keep as a piece of furniture?
Inz: was that degrading?
Inz: it's imperative that she rolls, too
Inz: ...by that, I do not mean that she should be obese

bug: Inz.. put an ad on Craigslist? ;x

Inz: craigs list?
bug: www.craigslist.org
bug: and.. it would only be degrading if you said "chickie". ;x

bug: the personal ads on Craigslist can be.. amusing.

Inz: "want to buy: hippie girl who rolls joints and massages shoulders"
bug: why does she have to roll?
Inz: 'cause I'm useless
Spider: because he doesn't?
bug: Get a pipe, much easier all around.

Inz: "want to buy: hippie girl who rolls joints or who comes bundled with pipe and massages shoulders"
Spider: Shouldermassaging pipes?
bug: LOL, perfect. :)
Ahnion: ...and doesn't sit in the window, chattering endlessly? ;)
Inz: I don't mind if it's stuff I'd be interested to hear
bug: Oh, does she have to provide the weed too.. or can you do that part of it?
Inz: no, I can get the weed

Inz: Craig's list wasn't that good for Ireland I don't think
bug: Awwww, I'm sorry Inz. ;D
corixid: Hi ho folks :-)
bug: Inz.. meet corix.. another American to rant about. ;)

Inz: hi corix
Inz: are you a hippie girl that rolls?
Inz: if so you are welcome to come visit
corixid: Not a girl, but I do roll

Comment, after reading original post, from Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2:

Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: and all hippie girls are, by definition, either gay... or chickies.
bug: Yes but if you don't immediately call them chickies.. it's not degrading. ;D
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2:: and half the gay ones are just chickies feeling experimental.

Gotta love the Phillies

InAPsychoCircus: is it bad when your baseball team wins four in a row & they still aint .500?
Bug : ::ponder deeply:: YES. ;x

Nothing sexier than flannel..

Pajama Shopper: do you have any "cute" flannel pajamas? like with cows or other animals on them?
Bug: No?
Bug: I got one of my sisters a penguin flannel nightshirt though, a couple of Xmas ago.
Pajama Shopper: oh really? where did you buy it?
Bug: A small shop out at the local farmer's market.. not much help. Why do you ask?
Pajama Shopper: i was going to get Esmerelda some cute flannel pajamas. no idea where to buy them.
Bug: Um.. check Target actually.. but also The Company Store has cute ones.
Pajama Shopper: Ooooo, i like their penguin pajamas!
Pajama Shopper: the snowmen are a bit too seasonal i think.
Bug: Yeah.. aren't they cute?
Bug: (now.. why are you getting her *flannel* instead of something pretty and feminine?)
Pajama Shopper: she is always cold and wants warm ones.
Bug: Hmm, ok. (silk is actually one of the warmer fabrics known). ::hunts for something warm and feminine::
Pajama Shopper: and, yes, we've both been into a Victora's Secret store.
Pajama Shopper: they have some interesting flannel stuff, too.
Bug: well.. I think that stuff is kind of.. male fantasy kind of feminine.. not just.. nice stuff.
Pajama Shopper: to be honest, i really can't stand the stuff like they show on tv.
Pajama Shopper: too gaudy
Bug: What kinds of things *do* you find attractive?
Pajama Shopper: it should be practical, i think. yes? but it depends on the situation.
Pajama Shopper: this is stuff she's going to wear all the time so i think it should be something nice.
Bug: does she prefer pjs to nightgowns?
Pajama Shopper: she wears all sorts of stuff...mostly layers of items. but i did ask her if she wants some warm pajamas and she got excited. recently she's worn stuff like a cami and some pants.
Pajama Shopper: i was thinking stuff like this item at Victoria's Secret, 191-725.
Pajama Shopper: they come in fun patterns.
Bug: well.. their front page says.. FLANNEL PAJAMA SALE.. so perfect time to get some.
Pajama Shopper: yeah, normally 49.50 on sale for 35!
Bug: Oh, they do have some *very* cute patterns.. what kinds of colors look nice on her?
Pajama Shopper: i remember my sister bought some that were a light blue with fluffy couds. she's not answering her phone, though.
Pajama Shopper: er clouds
Bug: www.garnethill.com has the fluffy cloud ones I think. Hmm, no, just the fluffy cloud sheets.
Pajama Shopper: she likes browns and blues...but i think she'd look nice in reds.
Pajama Shopper: definitely violet dog.
Bug: the dog one is really cute, that was one of the first I noticed.
Pajama Shopper: we both love doggies.

Leather Pants Revisited...

From an IM today on Yahoo.. totally out of the blue. My very first *entirely* random AskBug question! Woohoo! ;D

12:40 random unknown IMer
I have a question
2:51 Bug
who are you?
2:53 Bug
Um..  let me put this another way.. where'd you get my name, to add me to your list? Like.. how do I know you, or whatever?
2:53 random unknown IMer
oh --- your web page --- ask bug
2:54 Bug
ah.. okie.. AskBug.
2:54 random unknown IMer
yes.. I did a google this am on leather pants for guys
2:55 Bug
LOL, oh, okie. I need to scoot for a bit.. I'll be back in about an hour.
2:55 random unknown IMer
ok.... My question is if I should wear them to my x-mas party
2:56 Bug
Well.. that depends on the theme of the party.. and the style of the leather pants. And.. your overall physique to some extent.
2:56 random unknown IMer
I am thin 30 X 30
The party is ""cool / casual"
they are banana republic leather jeans
4:10 Bug
Ok.. that sounds reasonable.. I was sort of envisioning something like.. oh.. I don't know.. "backless" leather pants or something.  Wear them with a nice sweater or somewhat dressy shirt and you should be good to go.
4:11 random unknown IMer
ok cool
4:12 Bug
May I post this on AskBug? And if so, how would you like to be listed? (I mean.. if someone doesn't want their screen name used, I completely understand, and will change it to suit them)
4:13 random unknown IMer
you may post but PLEASE change my screen name.
4:14 Bug
Sure.. to anything in particular? If not.. I'll use "random unknown IMer"
4:14 random unknown IMer
 "random unknown IMer"  is fine
4:14 Bug
Cool, thanks! And enjoy the Christmas party!
4:16 random unknown IMer
I will let you know what I decide. I had planned to do the sweater thing. I have no idea why I am nearous about the pants.  I guess I am worried that I am going to walk into the room and everyone will be staring at me.
4:18 Bug
No.. on slim guys they can look *really* nice.

(As far as the sweater thing goes.. if you have something fairly soft and luxurious.. that would be best with the rather.. luxurious feel of the leather pants)
4:19 random unknown IMer
good point.
Can I ask you another question?
4:20 Bug
Sure.
4:20 random unknown IMer
Are you srt8?  You have good fashion sense
4:20 Bug
LOL, I am.
4:20 random unknown IMer
wow. good for you!

bug: yes.. date to date, not exactly 182.5 days. ;)
BillyBob: ok good.
BillyBob: i also have a hallmark e-card going on that day as well as a paper card going to her house.

CuriousHeteroMaleFriend: i had a great askbug question the other night but i forget it now
bug: awww.. ::smack::
CuriousHeteroMaleFriend: gimme a few minutes i'm almost done with a 40, i'll be in the same state of mind

CuriousHeteroMaleFriend: yes t-girls
bug:Nah. And I seem to remember Dan Savage covering this a while ago. Lemme see if I can find it. ::hunt hunt hunt::
bug: Ah.. here it is, Savage Love Even Dan Savage doesn't think you're gay. ;D

2(x)ist or something

Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: Here's what I want to know: How does one pronounce the undies brand "2(x)ist"?
bug: to exist
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: Is that it? That's what I thought but when I was talking about it with a couple coworkers a while ago (they had a catalog), they looked at me like I was a two-headed alien dog when I said it "to exist".
bug: Well.. they're wrong so far as I know.
bug: how the hell did they think it was pronounced?
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: The one girl said she was pretty sure it was "toox ist" and the guy said he just points at signs in stores. ;x
bug: wtf is "toox ist".. she's out of her mind.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: (apparently under the idea that the pictures in clothing stores are meant to be pictorial menus)
bug: Call them and see how they answer the phone: 212.741.7731
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: I already suggested that to the labbies
bug: Let me guess.. they won't? :x
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: They're embarrassed
bug: they should be, they're being idiots. ;x
bug: I called.. "Thank you for calling To Exist..." :x
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: lol
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: My guys are in the act of dialing the phone right now.. I have it on speaker and there's a crowd around us now
bug: ROFL, you're.. weird. ;x
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: Yeah, they're feeling stupid now
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: "OHMIGOSH it *is* 'To Exist'!" ::smack forehead::
bug: I mean.. just.. wtf.. it's painfully obvious what it says.
bug: Do they have this trouble with custom license plates too? :x
bug: (like the one I saw that said "KIDYWGN")
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: lolol that takes me back to SLC, one of my coworkers there had the tag "RNUAQT" and another wanted to know wtf "are nwokt" meant
bug: LOL oh dear. :x
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: Took about 10 times explaining to her that if she just read. each. letter. aloud. it'd make sense.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: "R... N... U... A... Cut? Huh?" ::smack::
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: "Cutty?" etc.
bug: Q Q Q Q T T T T. :x
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: RNUADUMBASS
bug: evidently so. :x

Boobs as.. a shelf?

Gwynne: well, this one is just a kinda silly question actually...
bug: well.. not as silly as one I keep meaning to put up on AskBug.. (let me find it).. Joe: ever wonder why they don't make more auto air fresheners that smell like deli meats?
Gwynne: well, here's mine (and you may post it on AskBug)... do genetic girls use their breasts as assists for carrying awkward or heavy items?
bug: well, I think it depends on the size to some extent.. I used to be *really* flat chested when I was skinny.. and now.. I'm not at all flat. :x :x.. and.. they both.. get in the way of carrying heavy things (since you can't hold stuff as close to your chest as you might want to).. and sometimes you can prop things there.
Gwynne: my real breasts aren't developed yet (though it's starting)... these forms are midrange B cups and probably sturdier than the real ones will be.
bug: well.. breasts are just sort of.. specialized fat tissue.. so.. if you've got flesh on your hips or stomach.. it's not so different.
Gwynne: Oh, I've got flesh on my stomach, OI do I have flesh on my stomach... >.<

And on the same topic, from A random male friend: my sister calls hers "the shelf".

And then I got chatting with my pal Godot..:
Godot: genetic girls?
bug: as opposed to transsexual girls?
bug: not born female.
Godot: Ahhh
Godot: why would people born with boobs be more or less inclined to use them
Godot: as functional appendages than those who bought them as aftermarket add-ons?
bug: well.. because.. aftermarket ones.. tend to not stay put.. and might shift and let things slip if you used them to help support something else..?
Godot: I dunno... the aftermarket ones I've seen (the bolt on versions as opposed to the strap on versions) don't seem to move at all.
bug: well.. true.

Women.. your thoughts on this?

Car Air Fresheners

Joe:ever wonder why they don't make more auto air fresheners that smell like deli meats?
bug: No, but it would have to be better than that noxious fake pine shit.
Joe: i like the fake new car smell myself
bug: Me too.
Joe: which nissans don't really have

Meanwhile.. I sent that question to my pal Parity Error.. who immediately came back with:

Parity Error: http://www.mcphee.com/items/11065.html and http://www.mcphee.com/items/11076.html

bug: thank you for those links.. I think I must post this all to AskBug.
Parity Error: :)
Parity Error: I remember they were on a top 10 car things to get guys list

o/~ Sweet dreams are made of this.. o/~

"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: LOL, uhm, how many companies do you have to sell?
bug: None, why ever do you ask? :)
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: Because I was helping you sell them last night.
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: I can't even begin to explain the details, or even the generalities, of this, but the last two nights I've had dreams of you.... you had a bunch of companies you were looking to sell, and somehow I was involved with this. To add to the reality, last night's had Ashton Kutcher in it as a friend who was waiting outside the office while I went in to talk to the people who wanted to buy one of the companies. Somehow I ended up without any clothing on.
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: I'm done now
bug: Ok.. that's very interesting. ;D
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: I wasn't gonna say anything because it really makes a lot more sense in the dreams than I can possibly describe, but since you were stupid enough to IM me
bug: Oh, I know.. dreams are just odd no matter what.
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: What gets me is, this was like 2 nights in a row, or for all I know, maybe 2 parts, both last night. I do know one was a continuation though
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: And I didn't even drink or anything.
bug: Anyhow, may I post it? And if so, how would you like to be identified?
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: Sure And, uhm, Guy #3?
bug: How about.. Well-adjusted homosexual friend #3?
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: LOL, OK
bug: (or whatever the opposite is of how I've got those other guys identified?)
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: Right
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: You might want to put the "well" in parentheses, though ;D
bug: LOL, fair enough.
"Well" Adjusted Homo Male Friend #3: That should give them a better hint :x

Sometimes I get answers to questions I haven't been asked

bug: a weird out of context chunk of an interview with Michael Stipe (NOT SAFE FOR WORK).. the *not* bold is Michael:
Yes. Since you’re the one of us that actually flew on the Concorde, have you ever joined the Supersonic Mile High Club?
No, in fact I’ve never even joined the Mile High Club. But I have noticed in planes, and especially on long plane flights, there’s something about the amount of air in a plane, and tell me if you’ve noticed the same thing...
You get a hard on.
No, your genitals just get heavier and bigger.

Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: O.o
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: I can say with complete conviction that I have never experienced this phenomenon.
bug: No one I've asked has.
bug: It just.. cracked me up.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: I do, however, sometimes get absolutely unbelievable hardons if I'm really tired but forced to stay awake because of circumstances (like I'm driving, or in a class, or similar).
bug: How odd. I wonder why.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: That's one of the reasons I always hated going through training on new jobs... if I started to feel tired, I'd almost always end up with a hardon and the have the trouble of not wanting to stand up if I needed to use the restroom or whatever. ;x
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: (I will never live this down if you post it and anyone connects it to me) ;D
bug: LOL, no, cause it's not a question.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: That's true. So I'm safe ;x
bug: Oh yeah.. it's not going anywhere.
bug: Well, maybe to Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2 if you don't mind, just for the humour.
bug: (no, I haven't yet.. I really am asking ahead of time)
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: Nah, that's okay... it'll keep me funny in his eyes ;D
bug: leaves me hanging, damn him:
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1 is often funny!
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: The 'truck hard-on' is a well recognized phenomenon.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: I need to log off and back on... BRB

Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: Oh good, because I've had that too... when I drove to Seattle solo in September, I was engorged from Boise all the way to Pendleton :x
bug: what on *earth* causes that?
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: NO idea. It's very disconcerting sometimes though.. I don't know if the motion/vibration has something to do with it, but at times I get so sensitive it's almost unreal.

bug: truck hard-on?
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: Yeah... riding in a truck (or a tour bus) for long periods of time produces hard-ons.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: Well known...
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: and they are a particularly irritating form of spontaneous wood
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: because unlike other random wood...
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: this tend to leave behind blue balls

Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: I take it then you've never had a truck wetness episode?
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: ::flee::
bug: I really do wish I could figure out some way to post this, with suitable name changes to protect the perma-erect.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: focl
bug: No.. I mean.. sometimes the vibrations from a car seat or whatever can be mildly.. interesting.. but not.. like that.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: "interesting"
bug: well.. it's kind of one step below arousing.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: I can just picture it... "Drive over those railroads several dozen more times, dear"
bug: but I think for women in general there are far fewer things that produce physical arousal without other stuff going on, y'know?
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: Yup, I'd bet that's true

bug: ha:
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: change the names and leave intact...
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: "Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1"
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: and
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: #2
bug: (that's on how to post the comments)
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: lol

bug: which one are you.. #1 or #2.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #2: LOL! I leave that choice to Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1.
Well Adjusted Hetero Male Friend #1: Well then, of course I'm #1

Installation fun

Mancow: I have a question for your site.
bug: LOL, ok?
Mancow: Why is it...that even if you pick the "Complete" option for the installation of Microsoft Office, it *still* asks for a CD if you attempt to use such things as the supposed built-in conversion filters?
bug: Because it is a Microsoft product?
Mancow: your wisdom truly knows no bounds...
