and to think you wanted to delete it like I did, JA; aren't you glad you let it persist?
- RAPatton
For a non-furry tummy, JA, you're not doing bad at all. #oohJA :D
- Derrick
If others find interest in it, I am fine. Just not a fan of what I see in the mirror most days. Then again...I need to get off my butt to fix that, no? :)
- JA Castillo
experiment: I get on the couch, beckon cat, she looks at me and goes back to licking herself. I start to reach for powerbook, she runs to the couch and immediately jumps between me and screen. I put it back down, she sits by herself and licks herself. I pick up... you see where this is going.
barfed? for what? maybe he likes a nicely waxed guy, D? :)
- Bren, Not Grinchy
*crosses arms* Remind me to keep my really gay comments and posts to myself. Carry on with your pencil thin chicken bone bitch, wannabe model/whore posts. HMMPH. #sensitive
- Derrick
@Tina @Derrick - good thing to know I am not the last man on earth...being less hirsute than others and all that... :P
- JA Castillo
Oh hell no, D! no chicken-bone bitches or wannabe model/whores in my posts! And I am entertained by your really gay comments and posts in the same way that I am entertained by any comments and posts that actually reveal something about who my friends really are. :)
- Bren, Not Grinchy
Well, some of the footballers might qualify as chicken-bone bitches and/or model-whore wannabes... but other than that, and those are a public service.
- Bren, Not Grinchy
Dood...don't censor yourself!! I love you for who and what you are...keep it coming! :D
- JA Castillo
I would like to request more really gay comments please.
- Lo is a Quitter
I don't want to turn FF into a vomitorium. :(
- Derrick
Meh. If someone has that weak of a gag reflex that's their problem.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
*whaps Morgan upside the head* Derrick, you know better than to pay him any 'tention. *wishing you had a web cam so we could see the mister scruffykins*
- Yolanda
*gasp* *looks around for the camera* Uhm, what?
- pea
Well, you not posting gay comments makes me vomit. So you're pretty much screwed on that count. :P
- Lo is a Quitter
*stretches, exposing fuzzy navel* ...Oh! That's where I put my drink! (UPDATE: for the record, a "hairy navel" has vodka in it)
- LogEx

I second Lo's request for more really gay comments... I love me a nice furry tummy, too. :D
- Bette Cooper
Anyone who is "offended" by gay comments should probably not be sub'd to you anyway, D! Let them sort through their issues...keep being you!
- Bren, Not Grinchy
Y'all know I had therapy last night. I'm still dazed. #sensitive
- Derrick
I've always heard it called that, actually... some better than others. :D
- Bette Cooper
Morgan must have been upset at the thought of a closeted gay republican, perhaps? NO WAI was he upset by you, D
- WorldofHiglet
Somewhere Morgan is sitting back in his chair laughing evilly, doing that thing that Mr. Burns does: "Excellent.." You know how much he loves to stir up trouble. :D
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Morgan, why not spend your energy posting constructive comments?
- joey
well joey, that's just a silly question :) what fun would that be for him?
- Bren, Not Grinchy
I think we're all focusing on the wrong thing now. Back to Derrick and his interests. I'm more into that than telling someone his comment was a bit off-putting. Especially when it's been covered already.
- pea
I don't think it's a problem to tell someone that a comment was inappropriate. Homophobia (even in online banter) has serious repercussions; we're fighting a struggle for basic gay rights in Washington state right now and it's an issue that I take very seriously. I'm more into not having to deal with 'ew, gross' comments every time someone posts something remotely homosexual and would like to see a response from the original poster of said comment. But whatever, I'm bowing out of this thread.
- joey
i never knew the furry-belly-loving segment (both gay and hetero) had such representation on FF.
- Joe Silence is not dead
Joey, I certainly agree with your sentiments, whole-heartedly. I just think it'd been covered but that's my general take on conversations. If I see that my sentiments or point have been covered, I tend to focus on other matters. I will admit it was high handed of me to try to refocus the conversation. In fact, after I did it, I thought to myself, "Well who died and made you the comment police?"
- pea
What does it say about me that when I started to read Derrick's original post, I was pretty sure it was a DM?
- s t e v e
Feel free to send me (DM or otherwise) furry tummy pics. Or smooth tummy pics. Average joe types > workout addicts with eight pacs. Sorry, Rahsheen.
- Derrick
Tempting... but I don't want to tease you *inno* :P
- Michael W. May
i'll spare you my own freakshow gut full of ropey purple surgical scars and stretch marks.
- Joe Silence is not dead
*looks again* actually, they're not purple, just slightly darker skin tone and a little puckered and smooth. still not terribly nice to look at, tho.
- Joe Silence is not dead
Direct message, how could I not know that. Well don't I feel quite the fool?
- Noah Belson
does it count if one cannot see where treasure trail ends end rest of fur begins?
- metalerik
I hardly take Morgan's comment as a statement that he hates gays
- Lindsey is Fierce!
Lindsey: are you familiar with the concept of humor? I assumed Morgan was kidding, and I was also kidding. hence the "caps lock" and "do anybody no" treatment.
- Bren, Not Grinchy
DO ANYBODY NO WHY LINDSEY CAN POKE FUN BUT CANT RECOGNIZE WHEN OTHERS ARE POKE FUN?
- Bren, Not Grinchy
@Lindsey: I think Morgan wouldn't have made that "joke" if a woman had posted the same thing Derrick did..."hate" is undoubtedly over the top, but it's not cuddly
- Louis Simoneau
"treasure trail:" :D "my heart is like an olive pit:" :)
- edythe
I'm hetero and I would probably have barfed at the thought of a happy trail and fur. Would I have posted it? Probably not but we are different people.
- Lindsey is Fierce!
still think it's at least insensitive and probably offensive...that said, I think Andrea and edythe are taking the wiser approach to this conversation
- Louis Simoneau
Loving the #bellymeme... wishing I could get my husband's adorable tummy up there for you, Derrick, but then I'd have to #bitchslap you for drooling on it. ;D
- Bette Cooper
Phil is in no mood for me to be posting pictures of his belly, but Shelby has no way to defend herself.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
Phil needs to get with the program and stop acting like a bitch.
- Derrick
Aw he is just having a bad day/week/month with work :( Poor Phil. I have been helping by crushing up xanax and putting it in his coffee.
