HLJ - not to worry. I don't know where you got your information, but I can assure you you everyone here drives/ rides on the correct side of the road. As laid down by God when he endowed England with the title of God's own country.

Anyway, at least we drive on the right side of the road too.

In an only marginally-related anecdote, a gay friend in high school used to insist that we all use the word "forward" when giving directions, because he wouldn't go "straight."

Sigh. When I was in high school we used to say "lemon" for left and "roarer" (another nickname for a 714?) for right.
we were very stupid.

I have successfully upgraded the hard disk in my laptop to 320GB. (Clonezilla did a great job.)

My lezza barmaid friend bought me a t-shirt that said, "Straight but not Narrow"
Unfortunately it was way too large - she said she would have been really embarrassed if it was too tight (having tiny bosoms herself she was unable to estimate well). She remodelled herself as a bisexual by going out with one of the most chauvanistic builders in the pub. I threw it away in my own form of protest. |

Protest? Why? Is she kicked out of the club for liking a bit o' the cock?
Reminds me of one of the gay waiters at the old bar we worked at. When he'd get good and liquored up he'd become obsessed with breasticles and he'd try to pick up women. Loads of fun. Loads of fun.

Ah, protest isn't fair I suppose.
But she was really anti-men before she met him - which I certainly wasn't - and I got my fair share of stick for the respectful men I dated. She had two lovely girlfriends before him, and I was honestly shocked that when she appeared to change sexual preference, she did it for a complete misogynist (I knew him before I knew her). He was a real shit. |

Daughter and I refer to gay men as "happy people." It's sort of a code in case someone overhears us (not very well veiled, but still - hey, she's 12.) We say, "He's a happy guy, isn't he?" or, "How happy is he?" meaning how *blatantly* gay does he behave? Being in cheer, she meets them every now and then. Like the oh, so very happy UCA choreographer. |
