what's happening to our borad TMI

i think i might suffer from this condition

You sir are a pox on the earth.

Updaet: I slept 7 consecutive hours last night without interruption. It was glorious.

get him a body pillow or large teddy bear to put between you and him while you sleep

you can name it George, and he can squeeze it

aw he was cuddly when we met him too it is a superior peesonality trait in a big tough guy imo

I agree which is why I <3 him.

tbh I love nothing more than cuddling nonstop all through the night

that's not true i love a lot of things more but I do rly love cuddling all through the night

You should date my boyfriend immed, he can fall asleep in the most torturous position as long as every arm and leg is wrapped around me like a predatory starfish.

lol

ha

what about his penis?

I assumed that thing on the left was the penis

that's what remains of the victim (in orbit)

not the starfish's penis

it is stuck between spoons iirc

he doesn't put it near an orifice?

i had a starfish-like ex who would do that as well -- it was v nice, though occasionally it led to impromptu 3am sex or at least attempted sex

Oh no, genital contact is incidental to starfishing ime.

Does his penis evert?

Slightly awkward at restaurants but that's love for ya, you gotta take people as they are.

this is why i think sex and sleep should be separated by as many hours as possible

i cleaned three booty last night and one of them was REALLY gross but now they are clean

That is three more booty than I have ever cleaned in my life! Good work, booty cleaner!

I love being gently mauled while I'm going to sleep and I like being the inflictor of the starfishing too. I'll handle sleepover duty in shifts w/ Stevie.

My wife will starfish me against a wall in the middle of the night. I'm a really big guy and she's pretty little, but she smooshes me into a really small space, so that we're occupying less than half of a queen-size bed. I've taken to just straight-up pushing her to the other side of the bed to reclaim my space.

xp My heroes!

I had this thread conflated with the booty-eating thread in my mind and misread the subject of "starfishing" quite egregiously for several posts

I just blew my nose so hard that a big spatter of teardrops shot out into my eye and glasses. Never had that happen before.

this time of year I never know if blowing my nose is going to be a normal thing or if being in a super-dry climate part of the time is going to result in a giant blood clot snot cluster flying out

Someone described an area where I farted recently as smelling like a "rotten Jolly Rancher."

#fart

you know the worst way to spend your last night before another 9 weeks of chemo? Eating a poisonous burrito.

stay strong fella

i'm getting i.v. and oral steroids for the first 3 weeks, so maybe.

I shaved my testicles at a partner's request for Valentine's Day. This better be worth the effort and itching.

shoulda waxed

Oooooh. "At a partner's request"!

I'm being allowed go home to work on my knotted lung and razorblade phlegm in a more familiar environment hurrah

albeit with the promise of a camera down my nose in a fortnight. ;*o*;

happy holiday, darragh!

Something weird is going on inside of my nostrils. My nose bleeds every time I blow it and there's always chunky dark green/brown boogers. I feel fine aside from the inside of my nose being tickly/itchy/extra sneezy so I don't think it's a sinus infection. Do you think I need to go to a doctor because I have a weird nostril infection and am going to keel over from meningitis or is it just dry air?

how much blood?

Not even full on nosebleed blood. Just like streaks of blood.

I feel uncomfortable discussing my gross nose on ILX but a google search for "do I have a nostril infection" was not very helpful.

i think it's probably the dry air, i doubt you have an infection. i'll often rub (with clean fingers) a little salve or protective balm or coconut oil or something in my nostrils and it helps prevent shit like that

the dark green thing sounds a little weird but idk

I had a gross almost high-five moment with a friend when we commiserated about the fact that using flonase (nasal steroid) was great for alleviating congestion and greatly diminished sinus infections, but it meant a lot of bloody boogers during the winter season.

Actually it was my hair stylist and we were probably loud enough other people nearby were totally grossed out.

I'll try putting nipple butter* up my nose before bed (the blood and boogers is worse in the morning although it continues throughout the day) and see if that helps.

*I don't really use it anymore and was just wondering what I should do with it and here we have it. Also it smells good so that's a plus.

And thank you for the support. :>)
