Simple question,what is something that you do in your regular life that,to you,seems perfectly fine but to others it seems strange or unusual? Now,depending on how comfortable you are with yourself only reveal what your comfortable with. I'm not asking you to tell us the "most" private of things just a certain thing. Something that I take part in that some find "odd" is that I am a Naturist. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif That's right,I support being comfortable with one's own body and am not the least uncomfortable when visiting a naturist resort. Either with myself or others present. It's a very great feeling of freedom and all there are treated equally,with no hang-ups to even think about. No hank-panky allowed! Otherwise,I certainly would not take part. (Then I really would be embarrased! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif) Okay,that's mine,what's yours? I double dare ya~all! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif It's been the B! Catch ya on the flipside of Sundown! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/cool.gif (Hey! No peeking! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/eek.gif_)

I am gay. :)) And very happy with it. I have someone I love with all my heart.

Six year relationship with The Spook. It's like dating a member of the mafia. They may look normal, they may sound normal, but they do strange things for a living and travel in odd circles late at night

Next boyfriend's gonna be a Dentist. And my apologies to Forest Lawn, my mother's been rolling in her grave for six years now.

In 1980, approx. , I voted for a Democrat Congressman who was about to get or was already booted out because of the AbScam scandal (you US history buffs might remember that) but it was too late to remove his name from the ballot. I had gone to grammar school with his son and it seemed like a nice gesture to vote for the scoundrel. It was and will probably remain the only Democrat Party member I have ever voted for.
I am comfortable with it and as you can see I can admit it in public. Thanks for letting me share and please keep coming back. It works if you work it.

In a word . . . yes.

Well, wait a minute . . . are you on call at any point? Is your job your life? Do you own a pager? Have you ever been shot at or chased by nefarious types. How do you feel about large dogs? Have you ever foregone a night of incredible sex to run a skip trace?

HI FOLKS! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif I'm back after 5 days away for Mem. Day Wknd. Boy,did I need those days off to rest! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/cool.gif 1st I want to say I'm sorry for being so nit-picky over on the main threads in the last couple of weeks,I was quite tired and had been really working too much. Good $ but not at a good price to my well being. Anyhow,great responses so far! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif One other thing I'll freely admit to is,that I can watch PBS kids' shows and not feel strange about it. Yes,that includes Barney & The T.Tubbies. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif I don't know why but it feels no different than watching the kid shows I watched growing up. Just one more thing that I feel makes me markedly and wonderfully different! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif It's been the B! Keep the replies coming and Peace It Up! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/cool.gif

DMD3! Watch,"I Love The 70s" on VH1 and tune into either the '74 show or '75. It's a car. A very bad car. Hear them talk about it and you'll know what I mean. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

They were the bomb . . . literally. Had a nasty tendancy to explode if they got hit from behind. The placement and construction of the gas tank was not the best.

Re: What's so unusual about that????!!!
 
trying to find an old thread I found his one
I am now trying hard to think of something unusual in my life fo add to the list.
How about you?
not heard much from violet blue horse for a while How is the Spook???

Borderstone 05-17-2010 06:55 PM

Re: What's so unusual about that????!!!
 
Wow! :eek: I wondered who pulled up this golden oldie of a thread!

Hard to fathom it's been 7 years ago this month!

I mentioned being a naturist and by coincidence...I spent a three day weekend at my local "resort" on the first weekend of spring in March.

Soooooo relaxing. :) I almost forgot there was a world out there.

Thanks for bringing it back up John ;)

Re: What's so unusual about that????!!!
 
I guess one might count the way I do dishes & put up laundry. I like to sort my dishes first & put the silverware in the bottom of the dish pan with the glasses & cups. Then I like to wash the flat things like plates & saucers & lids. After that I do up the pots, pans, and skillets. As for laundry, I sort each persons stuff out & then do the toels & dishcloths & washcloths first. Then everyone else can put away their own clothes. My mum thinks that it's a time wasting way of doing what I do, but it's what's easier for me.

Re: What's so unusual about that????!!!
 
Something else I do that tends to frustrate people whenever I go out with others is that if I'm going to do any shopping while I'm out, I try to do all of my shopping first & then I worry about where I'm going to eat lunch & then I head for home. i also drive folks at home up the wall with the way that I run the kitchen.

Yes, one thing I seem to have a liking for that other people don't is listening to the remakes of songsvs. the originals recordings. When it comes to songs that have been recorded again, most people tend to prefer either listening to the original version, or the remade version, but not both.

There are a lot of Gord songs that were re-recorded and I'm glad, yet I enjoy listening to both versions (The Pony Man, Wherefore And Why, and The Circle Is Small are examples).

I tell you Deal,you never know what "chestnut"

One thing's for sure,I'm still a naturist but not going to the resorts as ioften these days. (Unfortunatley.)
