The Drop in Centre
Backwoods Boy replied to Mikiesboy's topic in Mikiesboy's Drop in Centre's Topics
The "wow" was for ... well ... WOW! A word I had seen in writing but never heard spoken, and had envisioned an almost inverse definition for because I would have associated it with things like "vitality". I doubt that I would ever use it unless I was desperate to finish off a rhyming couplet. And I LOVE alliteration. Yeah! All those nice sibilant "s" sounds make a sex scene sing with sybaritic satisfaction. -
That was a rather ... ummm ... exciting mating scene. You do very well with the erotic descriptions. 🍆 I'm enjoying the continuing and increasing theme of inclusiveness and compassion, even in the face of internal resistance. The complaints of the councilman sound so familiar.

Only temporarily, but I think it aggravated later behavior. 😈 -

Good morning, and thanks much for those. Now I can justify all the swearing I do. Too bad I can't share them with my mother. The designated punishment for cursing was having one's mouth washed out with soap, a regular event in my childhood, even when the only words in my swearing vocabulary were "jobbie, wee-wee, toilet!" I think you can guess the first given the more-common second one. I'll pass those links on to a few fellow foul-mouths. -

Likewise, and likewise. What would I do without the Urban Dictionary? -

Perhaps both would be improved by the strategic application of a glass of wine ... -

Oh, my! The opportunity here for inappropriate comments are endless. But I'll refrain... -
Different. An interesting transition in twelve lines. Not what one expects, to be sure.

Nicely done! (he says through his tears).

There's another perspective on this. Perhaps you were doing your co-workers a favor. I'm going into old-fart mode now, so bear with me. Remember when you commented that the members of the household weren't interested in your home cooking? I didn't comment at the time, but my thought was that they were probably too used to eating worthless crap like Crispy Cremes to appreciate what you produced. Eh? -

Glad to hear I'm not alone in that regard. -

I bet it feels weird. Were it I, my self-preservation warning system would be screaming, "Run! Run! Run!". However, as the least likely person here to start an "Ann Landers" column (how outdated is that?), I would only observe that your parenthetical comment is likely your own advice to yourself. -
I always get emotional when I read this story, and I don't understand why. I think it is largely your writing skill; the detail puts me so much into the picture that the story becomes more real than reality. One thing I noted here: With as many characters as you present, writing in first person simply would not work. I've noticed that with each character addition, it becomes more difficult, and not in a linear fashion either. I think it's more exponential.

Aha! The penalty for the raise and bonus rears its ugly head. -

Good one. My first thought, and repartee for the day, is that a return to Calvin Coolidge would be refreshing.
