Well, he was the sexiest pink-wearing man I've ever seen!

For some reason, I find "distinctive assets" hysterical.
I say we give one to Raul. I nominate Em to do the deed. Afterall, she's so close!

Oh, but they are distinctive. I just didn't realize there was an award for that in this particular branch of showbiz.
I vote for giving him that shirt in a small size.
Oh GOD.
OH MY GOD.
"Distinctive assets." Somehow this brings me back to my accidental comment that Raul's removal of clothing was "nothing major."
HOW could you have said that??! Blasphemy!
I seem to vaguely remember that. In what context was it?
Distinctive assets. Yes indeedy.
*snorfle* <-------That word is SO funny.
I meant that the scene was short - and it wasn't at all like "OOH NAKED MAN!" It was very dramatic, intense, and tasteful. I meant that the *scene* was nothing major; the actual... view was QUITE major indeed. Hello, shock value?
Wait, he was NAKED??? *keels over*
I thought you just meant he took his shirt off or something. What show is this?
Nothing major, indeed.
The Normal Heart.
Totally.
Completely.
Unclothed.
Duh! Of COURSE only real men wear pink...
EVERYONE who's anyone knows that.

And thus ends Emcee's facade of maturity.
Priest, only if everyone who's anyone doesn't live in Bushville.
I just stated that it occurred. I have refrained from direct commentation.
.....
Shoot me.

*picks jaw off of floor*
ahem. Well. Yes.
This play is no longer running, correct? Too bad. :-P
I could never EVER do a nude scene, even if my life depended on it. You have to be so self-confident. Not me. Never. nu-uh.
"Priest, only if everyone who's anyone doesn't live in Bushville."
Sweetie, I live right in the middle of Bushville and I wear pink all the time. Well, not all the time, but enough.
Yeah, the play died a horrible, saddening death. Don't even get me going.
Raul can afford to be confident. ahem.
In all seriousness, it was so intense. Very, very uncomfortable.

Bushville is in the State of Mind.
And don't call me sweetie, thanks.
Awwww.
I can't call you sweetie?
I think I need to read this play. It sounds fascinating.
How do you do a scene like that, then go out the stagedoor and look people in the eye and sign things and take pictures?
ha. Well, I sure as hell felt awkward talking to him after that. But really, compared to the other shocking moments in the play, seeing him without clothes was really the least of concern. It was THE most impactful night of theatre I've ever experienced.

Mmm, no. If I want condescention. I'll go poke my head into the Adults thread.
I'd love to read this play, but have no way of obtaining it other than amazon.com, meaning that the parents would see things about it. I also have six dollars to my name.
I thought you'd read it, nia! Library?
It's not in the library? Maybe my school's theatre department has it. mmmm, I doubt it. I know! I can get them to order it!
...You know things aren't going so well when you start talking to yourself on a public message board.

Elphie, things can't be going well if you're talking on a message board at all.
Emcee, I've said I haven't read it every time you've brought it up, which is at least three times a week.
I thought you diiiiid.
*shakes head at Elphie* It's okay.
I'm just stressed out about school. And it hasn't even started yet!
