  • Moricute

    I took a watermelon half out and put it on the table next to my keyboard.  I had to wait for the dishwasher to finish to get utensils, so I went online.  I wound up reaching for the mouse, around the great green marbled expanse.

  • Still Questionable

    You are a Slutcom 1, also known as the normal level of slutcom. This category is characterized by occasional hook-ups. These hook-ups are with people that could be potential relationship material, though that's not always 100 percent. They also tend to be not overly physical; sex is rare for a slutcom 1 - and generally, isn't much of a concern.

  • Dating at Home Depot

    "Men and women are meeting at Home Depot or other home improvement centers and ultimately marrying." - Debbie Mandell

    I know we say that you should strive to look your best, but I've never been one able to resist being lazy now and then.  Trips to stores like these always seemed the perfect excuse for letting go a little.

  • Strength and honor

    Is this accurate?

    You are strong in character, emotions, ethics and physically. People who know you believe you are reliable and steady. You say what you mean and you will follow through with it because you weighed the positives and negatives of the commitment before you even said yes. Life may though difficulties your way but you are able to cope with them because of your strength.
