It's an old Prussian name, but I can see how it could be misinterpreted in English :-).

Vacuuming the bottom of our para style pool. It's a peculiarly satisfying job.

Giving away some goldfish from my pond today, and seeing the excited face of the recipient :-)

 

He had a pond waiting for some, and I was happy to oblige.

Several years ago I took a young lady I was looking after on a long international flight. Her ancestry is Scottish and she is as blond and blue-eyed as it comes. As a vegetarian, I am familiar with airline special meal services. I’m sure many experienced travellers take advantage of these as you get served first and don‘t have to wait impatiently for your food while the staff slowly thread their way up the aisles handing out meals. 

 

I didn’t want my young charge to have to go through this while I enjoyed my food but she most definitely is not vegetarian so I ordered Halal for her so we could eat together. What made me smile was the undisguised surprise of the hostess when she brought the meals and saw my friend with her very Scottish features and no sign of a headscarf. She actually asked twice to make sure the meal was going to the right person.

Brings new meaning to the term "incel"



Heh heh, "pen testing".

Though this could equally have been at home in a thread "what's something small that leave you complete bewildered". I mean, why!?

It's OK, the "hardened steel shackle" is actually made of Chinesium so you can snip it open with some nail clippers.

I had no idea 'teledildonics' was a word.
That word makes me smile.

Probably not as much as teledildonic devices are intended to make you smile tho.

Of course. Just not on your own machine.
Who do you know that would enjoy having some more interesting ads appearing?
