king sized bed? !!

i'm all arms and legs, i need the room. plus it's fun to have all that room for, well, y'know.

All the same, boys love hearing that kind of thing

Sure, but it's getting the sassy ones within earshot that's the problem. Also, yeah, to nix the manchild fodder I might have to move on from "boys'.

Kevin, next you put the boxspring on a bedframe. THEN you celebrate.

But you like "toots", Kelsey?

I *wish* I had a king size. Maddie and I both sprawl too much for a queen.

I'm a big fan of "lady." Especially when adressing my female friends, because it adds a touch of class to conversation.

Alternately, it adds a touch of Jerry Lewis.

I was searching for the Britney image, but John beat me to it. Has anyone else seen Crossroads and enjoyed it?

Dan, but watch out for "ladyfriend" - gals take offense to that sometimes, especially if you've got something going on with them, especially, like, occasionally!

― Eazy (Eazy), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:52 (twenty years ago)

LADY! FROM THE MOMENT I SAAAAAW YOU...

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:52 (twenty years ago)

Love "toots." Although, if someone I didn't know called me toots, I'd be all, "Who does he think he is?"

I had to watch Crossroads for a job I had at that time. The best thing about it was the DVD extra where they show you how to make the t-shirts the girls were wearing. I'm saying girls here on purpose.

― Sweet Tater (kelstarry), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

I loved Crossroads!

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

(Speaking of which, last night I watched the Sopranos episode from the most recent season where Tony meets his father's mistress, this Kennedy-era bombshell played by Polly Draper - man, was she great.)

xpost- that's a beautiful song, Manda. For my 7th grade chorus-class evening cabaret concert, I sang 'Babe' - maybe I should've tried 'Lady' instead.

― Eazy (Eazy), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

I know a couple of dudes who say "ladyfriend" all the time, and it comes off as totally smarmy.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

The best triple bill would be:
1. Where the Boys Are
2. Satisfaction
3. Crossroads

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:54 (twenty years ago)

It's all about "the ladies".

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:54 (twenty years ago)

I have a friend who says either 'ladyfriend' or 'womanfriend' because he cannot stand 'girlfriend.'

― Sweet Tater (kelstarry), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:54 (twenty years ago)

I need to see Crossroads. Actually, I wonder if Crossroads and 8 Mile might be a good double feature.

Until I posted it, Britney was the spectre haunting this thread.

I really don't like "lady" for some reason.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:55 (twenty years ago)

I love "girlfriend". I'm going to say it even after I'm married.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:55 (twenty years ago)

i use ladies and fellas.

i also use "girl" and "woman" when talking about a girl or woman and for me it's not an age thing it's a maturity thing. i've dated 32 year old girls and 25 year old women. hopefully there's something going on with this 28 year old i've been seeing around. i'm leaning 60/40 towards her being a girl.

― chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:57 (twenty years ago)

Not "lady", "the ladies".

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:57 (twenty years ago)

chick

― Jeff. (Jeff), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:57 (twenty years ago)

worst

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:58 (twenty years ago)

"The ladies" is one of those words that shouldn't be made singular, like "scissors" or "pants".

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:58 (twenty years ago)

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:58 (twenty years ago)

Saffire - now those are ladies!

― Eazy (Eazy), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:59 (twenty years ago)

I use "lady" in more the regal context (Lady XXXX) and saying silly shit like "Hello, lady, nice to see you."

Never ever ever never ever "ladyfriend." I called a girlfriend that once, in her presence, and that was enough!

― Steely Df'nM (OutDatWay), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:59 (twenty years ago)

I am a big fan of "lady" but it DOES make me grab for a full skirt to lift when I'm going up stairs...you know, to keep mud off the hem and show a little ankle at the same time.

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:59 (twenty years ago)

I can never hear "ladyfriend" again without thinking of The Big Lebowski.

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:00 (twenty years ago)

True!

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:01 (twenty years ago)

Mmmmm... ankle.

― Steely Df'nM (OutDatWay), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:03 (twenty years ago)

"Lady. I'm your knight in shining armor. And I love you. You have made me what I am aaaaaand -- I am yours"

"Lady of the morning
Love shines in your eyes
Sparkling, clear, and lovely
You're my lady"

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:03 (twenty years ago)

Sparkling, clear and lovely? Is she a mountain stream? The winner is Kenny Rogers by a mile, for evoking more chivalrous times.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:04 (twenty years ago)

Don't you mean "you're my LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADAAAAAAAAAAY?"

xpost: Oh I thought that was Styx! hahaha

― Steely Df'nM (OutDatWay), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:05 (twenty years ago)

Is there anything worse than "mujer" though? Let's be honest.

It is! I did mean that.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:06 (twenty years ago)

I guess "mujer" isn't so bad, depending on who's saying it.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:07 (twenty years ago)

punta?

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:07 (twenty years ago)

you mean puta?

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:08 (twenty years ago)

yes.

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:09 (twenty years ago)

yeeeah, that's worse. but that's obviously a pejorative term.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:17 (twenty years ago)

i mean, i would rather be called "chick" (as gross as it is) than "whore" anyday.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:17 (twenty years ago)

I don't think "chick" is that bad, really.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:20 (twenty years ago)

(I mean, it depends on the context, obv.)

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:20 (twenty years ago)

Woman just sounds weird, I rarely use it.

Lady, too old fashioned.

I use girl a lot, peppered with some chicks.

Gal reminds me too much of NC.

― Jeff. (Jeff), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:20 (twenty years ago)

You all know I hate the word "buddy" to denote "friend," right? Hate it.

(xp) interesting about the Southernness of "gal," I suppose -- that never really occurred to me since I've reclaimed it

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:21 (twenty years ago)

Doll?

― Eazy (Eazy), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:23 (twenty years ago)

Shiela?

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:25 (twenty years ago)

Bird?

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:27 (twenty years ago)

Hey, what about SOW? That's a good one. How about person. If you're using a pronoun, the person's sex is already clear.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:27 (twenty years ago)

"dudette"

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:28 (twenty years ago)

I would rather be a great person than a great girl/woman/lady/mare.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 18:29 (twenty years ago)
