You know that Suave soap? Named after me because I know how to clean a dirty girl.

Well, if you go back to the beginning, you'll see almost everyone posted their picture

That was kind of the original point of the thread. We had a different "welcome" thread, but this spun off from an Answerman column where people were posting their pictures because Zac posted one of himself.

So, way to go Pleinair, and welcome to the forums.

I like how myspace can act like an economical pic hosting site.

Don't take this wrong way, but your picture startled me. Ya see, when you said "I'm so pretty" I assumed you were a girl and so your picture caught me off guard and made me knock over things while running for my life. I do dig your hair arrangement now that I'm all settled, though.

You know what they say about assumptions. They make an "ass" out of "u" and "mptions".... that's not right.

sorry about that...wait, that's not right either. I'm quite happy about that. Twisted Evil

Whoa now. What exactly is wrong with people who don't wear underwear? You got a beef with the commando lifestyle?

I have a beef with it (going commando) when some overweight NASCAR dude bends over in front of me in line at the grocery store, revealing his hairy crevice to assault my visual sensory system. Watch this video and pay special attention to 1:02, 1:03, 1:42, 3:16, and 3:49. If you don't understand where I'm coming from after that, then... well, there's really nothing more to say... Razz

Alright, I feel ya. I'm still going to live my life freeballing, but, then again, I'm not an overweight NASCAR dude. I do wonder where those Walmarts are because the ones in my area are fairly normal. I also usually go early on Sunday mornings since most people are in church and it's less crowded. And the sun is out keeping most of the weird people at bay.

Heh heh, I chose that video because it simply captured 'the worst of it.' But seriously, not wearing underwear is bad for everyone around. I remember during my 2nd year of college, I was taking Acting 1, which is the class many people take to get out of Communications 1. This one girl, who was a nice girl, but overweight and not physically attractive, was selected to do an exercise that involved her to be squatted on the ground. Well, she wasn't wearing underwear, and the situation for the entire class of 30+ students got extremely awkward. Some turned their heads while trying to look non-suspicious, others tried to hide their laughter (poorly), and the rest (including me and the professor) gritted their teeth and tried to ignore the obvious, hoping that nobody made any remarks.

I am also reminded of certain Paris Hilton photos where she wasn't wearing any skimpies while getting out of her limo. Those two reasons alone are why I am a huge advocate of all people wearing underwear at all times. The only exceptions should be 1: you're in a porno, or 2: someone got a video of you 'doin' the bad.' No other exceptions should exist.

Well I think The King of Harts should be your third exception because:
1- I'm not overweight
2- I don't wear dresses. I wear pants or shorts and my shirts are fairly long so they still cover my booty even when I bend over.

I think you've just had a few bad experiences and they've scared you for life, but there is also plenty of good that comes from not wearing underwear.
