If an over sexed munchin is anything like an unspayed chihuahua, you'd better run!

oh you know I love you more than my luggage - it was a compliment - havent you ever heard those stories about those horny munchkins on the Wizard of Oz set? you kind of remind me of a pretty version of one of those - and you sing MUCH better!

>>"SIX-TWO, sweetie - I only seem tall to you because you're an oversexed munchkin in pearls...(I just made myself laugh out loud at that)..."<<

Redhot just made me pee in my pants with that post! LMFPRAO!!!

well I do my best, possums! I'm a little horse at the moment - been singing on and off all day and belting kinda wears me out - working on some new stuff I have to learn for a class - now I'm about to copy two monologues from a movie we rented last night - I need some good contemporary stuff and I find movies are great suppliers of brief contemp monologues.

A "little horse?" That's not what the report from the steamroom said!

Namo, you caught it before i did... i have a feeling that i'm going home to find a pony in the kitchen...

A pony in the kitchen and a horse in the bedroom, that's how to keep a man happy.

Hung like a horse will keep all size queens happy.
Ha ha!

Sigh. The fun comes from alluding to it.

Sigh. What are you Bruce Vilanch.
He is the man of the one liners.

WTF. HFS.

Actually, I'd like to think of myself (and Mr. Vilanch) not so much as one-liner types but rather more like raconteurs (look it up).

"Hung like a horse will keep all size queens happy. Ha ha!" -Corine2

Would you be the same Corine who accused *me* of posting in poor taste most of the time? Yowzah. In my book, that statement alone win you the BWW Crassness Award. And that's sayin' something.

And that's where I think the lack of art comes in. The ART is in being tacky, without being crass.

And a real writer recognizes that.

What do YOU think?

[Corine2]

Posted: 5/7/05 at 8:40am

I am sorry if I offended anyone.
I thought it was funny.
But here we are with double standards.
If a woman says "Hung like a horse", it is crass.
If a man says it. It's funny.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

While I think that that comment would come across as crass coming from almost anyone, I don't think it's so much a double standard as it is knowing what works coming from whom. For instance...I may make middle-aged woman jokes because that's what I am. But if the same comment is penned by a 25 year old man, I'm probably going to find it offensive...because it is not his comment to make. My in-laws are Jewish and use phrases and jokes that I will never utter because I am not Jewish and they don't come across the same coming from me. At the risk of beating a dead horse, one more example... Corine, you have been known to make "short" jokes at your own expense, which I have generally found to be cute and endearing. Were I, being quite tall, to make the same comments, they would, most likely, be perceived as patronizing or insulting.

I cringe hearing guy talk coming from women, woman-talk coming from guys, gay venacular coming from straights, ghetto-talk out of white suburban mouths... It's all about knowing the context. Can some people cross the boundaries and make it work? Absolutely. (For a fine example, see RobbieJ in Basketcase...tonight, The Duplex, 7 pm...) But you have to be VERY skilled with words, and most of us just aren't.

And thus ends Iflit's Saturday morning muse. Hope I didn't kill the thread.

Well said, Flit - so I'll help to make sure the thread doesn't die.

I am not ready for gray hair yet and I keep my hairdresser very busy ensuring there is none to be seen. However, on some people, particularly men, it looks wonderful. A few lines also quite distinguished on most people. It's all in the way you carry it.

But Marquise, it's so boring when the mini-dramas go away...
