  1. The funny/sad thing (depending on your point of view) about this thread is, potentially 85% of the dz.com community is male, so that's around 19,800 men. And let's say half of them actively post - around 9,900. Now considering how many guys subscribe to this forum (potentially or in reality), and how often they post - or beg for women to post - boobs, you'd think they would be willing to reciprocate. Hell, you'd think they'd be gunning to post just to be able to at some point use the "I showed you mine, let's see yours" argument. Got stones?
  2. Funny how it's the ones who don't post that are requesting others to bear more.
  3. Do you have presonal firewall software or a popup stopping program installed? If so, either of these applications could be causing these messages to appear. There's a chance you have a stealthy IE plugin installed (happens more and more lately). If this is the case you might consider downloading and running Lavasoft AdAware www.lavasoftusa.com. One word of caution, if you have Kazaa installed and you choose to run the Lavasoft software, don't delete the Cydoor registry keys or Kazaa will cease to function. Hope this helps.
  4. The last time I quit I started running like a madman every day. The cravings went away after a few weeks, and while I was running I kept telling myself, "This is only so difficult because you smoke you moron." Sounds stupid, but it helped. I was able to stay away from cigarettes for over a year, but then again, my job had me working from 8 am until anywhere between midnight and 3 am and I was going to the gym and running at 6:30 am. I didn't go to bars, and my smoking friends moved away, so it was pretty easy to resist temptation the few times I was around smokers. As soon as I moved to Chicago and started hanging out with smokers again, I started right back up. Good luck.
  5. Yep, one more, and an Israeli to boot.
  6. I don't think her issue was with who posted, it's the content. Of the countless booby-posts on TalkBack I think it's about time there was a thread of the real skydiving guys the sky chicks can enjoy.
  7. LOL, beauty! I constantly stifle myself when someone uses the word ironic to describe an odd coincidence. However, the amount of effort necessary to explain the correct use of the word isn't warranted in most cases.
  8. Amen. Be honest, don't skirt the issue. And considering this is a VERY public forum, how about considering who you're (indirectly) bashing - Jews - when you're laying down your little boy's lament.
  9. I can't agree more. Catharsis or no, other than showing how men, and especially young men, can indeed fit the very unbecoming stereotype out there for being ignorant (see #4 and #5) and self-serving (#'s 1-10), I don't see the point. If you don't like her, break up with her. Otherwise you're not doing either one of you a favor, and you're just making yourself look bad.
  10. Lots of talking...but it sounds like these ladies are determined!
  11. Let's change the thread to "show me yours and I'll show you mine." Anyone?
  12. nar·cis·sism A psychological condition characterized by self-preoccupation, lack of empathy, and unconscious deficits in self-esteem. Nah...I'm a teddy bear with plenty of self-esteem. Curious there aren't more hairy guys posting after the great compliments flying around here. Maybe the theme should be expanded to include more than just chests?
  13. Yeah, there are a few of us left that won't shave. Hey Brian, Princess talked me into posting this one, and no, I wasn't about to flex for the camera.
  14. You probably will get a flood of replies to this question. I broke myself of that habit by clicking my heels together. That sensation should help you figure out where your feet are and adjust accordingly.
