How To Remove Candle Wax from A Mobile Phone (2 Viewers)

I've never said it was beyond my ability to deal with it, I said it would be uncomfortable for me to have to do so

That's just fine for you, then. But your original statement is one I've heard many times before and basically says, "It's ok to be gay as long as you don't hit on me." You're more than welcome to be uncomfortable being hit on by a gay man, but that has nothing to do with whether gay people are ok. So putting the two thoughts together like that is very misleading.

There was a very similar additude in this country about 40 through 115 years ago. It went something like, "Black people are OK as long as they're taught in different schools, and use different bathrooms, and sit at the back of the bus."

Blimey! what a strange attitude you must be well battered Ken given the amount of people worldwide that hate and knock the US government. Its up to you if you take these things personally as the fall guy for your warmongering dictator - they're not aimed at you.

Colin, perhaps you might have heard of a particular group who has a pretty big grudge against our government. Maybe we were out of line, but the average citizen took it rather personally when airplanes were flown into some of our buildings.

No that's nothing like a fair comparison, the example you've given is racial prejudice and hatred, I don't object to being in the same company as gays, in fact a great many of my customers are gay.
I've no objection as long as I get paid and they don't want to flirt with me

I don't object to being in the same company as gays, ... as long as ... they don't want to flirt with me

If I remember correctly, you're a married man. According to societal standards it would be objectional and immoral for a woman to flirt with you. It might even make you personally uncomfortable to be hit on by another woman. But do you say, "It's ok to be straight as long as you don't flirt with me?"

If I were to make that same statement, there's nothing that wouldn't sit right with you about that?

I'm not married so it would be ok for a woman to flirt with me, that's provided I fancied her and she wasn't gay.

Wow. The last time I visited this thread we were actually talking about wax in the cell phone somewhere around post 10 or 12. It's really mutated into a whole different beast now.

Well we could start talking about candles again

Speaking of mobile phones, here's a little pun I've dreamt up and plan on doing; We have several out of date older cell phones laying around the house. Next time I go fishing with my church buddies, I'm going to take one and pretend someone calls me on it. Then I'll pretend to get really mad at the caller and throw the phone in the water while I mumble and grumble to myself and slowly pretend to be embarrassed ...Then not tell anyone any different for a week or two and see what stories get back around to me through the grapevine
...

Make sure you, at the least, remove the battery and the antennae or there might not be many fish living there when you return for you next trip!

Of course, most cellphone makers these days will buy back your old phone from you since they get gov't tax benefits from being environmentally friendly so you could theoretically earn some cash.

You could, of course, use the cash to buy one of those little candy cellphones the kids love and try it with that.

Edit: Depending on how much beer you and your buddies may have had by that point, who'd be the wiser?

Woah. It's a good thing I got that detail wrong otherwise you might have gotten my point. *Whew* We sure dodged a bullet there...

Bonus points if you kill a fish with it when you throw it in.

This: 'she wasn't gay' kinda don't make sense (to me). This isn't another one of those metro deals is it...(I'm getting a headache )

A co-worker of mine has one of those huge "foot long" analog brick phones. The blasted thing works great too. They heat up so much you could probably cook an egg on it after using for a while!

Why not? It's quite straight foward

 

[KenHigg]

If she were gay, why would she hit on you to begin with? (Wait, this may be a metro deal and I really may not want to know...)

Many years ago a mate of mine lived in a shared house. There were two lessies living in the top flat, he fell madly in love with one of them, despite all his efforts she wasn't interested, after over a year of trying to win her affection he decided to give up and leave the area.
The night before he left he and she came around to my house and asked if they could borrow the spare room.
Go figure

Now that's a big thing to borrow..

Did you ever get it back?

It's kinda like borrowing Porn movies, you never see them again...

 

[Kraj]

So, as a straight man you would not want to be hit on by/have sex with a gay woman?

Probably not

 

[Kraj]

And why is that? It's heterosexual sex. What's the difference?

 

[Rich]

It's heterosexual sex.

How do you know that's what it would be?
