Can you say....

Hey a bag of popcorn works as well as a patato....


Desease and deformity somehow come to mind now, as though a potato wasn't deformity enough....thanks!

I have to stay on topic so as not to be banned so....there is nothing whatsoever the matter with men over 40, nor under 40. Delicious creatures...yanno...like lobster. Will wait for A.S.is or someone else equally qualified to come up with why in one of their one liner sorta ways.

Lonestar, if you want to believe that it's okay for old men to date women young enough to be their daughters...by all means...go ahead. Who the hell is stopping you! When you have daughters one day...and see dirty old men making passes at them....regardless if their educated or not on how to handle them...believe me, you won't feel the same way and won't believe it's such an acceptable behavior. I'm not going to get into this with you because you have a long way to go before you understand my point.

Besides Lonestar and/or mylifeasme, I'm not fighting anymore. It's like beating a dead horse. I'm trying to lighten things up by joking around and you two are set on bashing me because I expressed my disdain with dirty old men! That's kind of hypocritical. Sorry, but I refuse to believe that people such as yourselves who claim or portray to be sooooooo intelligent and enlightened...would approve of this type of lurid behavior.
Not buying it. You're just in a fighting mood. Not going to work with me.

I just thought I would come in here and bring this thread back to some semblance of order.

Yes, I am going to bring it back to the heights of oratory and rhetorical discourse at which it began by making this one powerful and incontrovertible statement,

"The OP is a poopy head."

Apparently, no one, since I just went out with someone who is 29 two weeks ago.

You don't have a point.

Women over fourty are like a fine aged bottle of wine...you never know what you'll get....some will be musky, heavenly bodied, with beautiful colouring....some will be vinegar, having gone bitter with ageing.

Younger women are like spring wines...some have that freshness, soft, light, and sweet...some bland, lacking in full-bodied substance.

That being said...if drunk enough, then you can drink almost any woman into being beautiful.

You mean you have a MASTERS degree and all you've got is $100?


...I assumed that was all YOU could afford to lose.

Nice try though.



I have more posts here...but not all with the the same person . For some reason you seem to be obsessed with me love.


And I have another $100 that says you have used more words in yours posts directed towards me, and have referenced me more often in other posts (I, not at all. But you think I am obsessed with you?)

The words is "amused". I know they sound alike, but really, they aren't related.


Now...getting back to the OT...You are the poster child of "What's wrong with men" Self-absorbed, arrogant and control-freakish type men like you that lack so much self -esteem, that they constantly feel the need PROVE themselves to others and CANNOT let someone else have the last word...especially...God forbid...a woman. You just can't do it can you? Poor, poor you. Even your username speaks volumes "mylifeasme". me, me, me...all about you isn't it?


If it helps you to feel better about yourself to believe all that, then feel free. Trust me, I understand you FAR better than you purport to understand me.

BTW - this lame attempt at what you'd call "reverse psychology" only serves to further embarrass you. As previous stated, you are swimming at the deep end dear...and clearly drowning.

So...why do YOU need to have the last word, Madame Kettle? Uncontrollable urges? Your lizard brain run amuck? I mean, you have repeatedly said you are going to cease and deist, but yet you have not.

Did you Google "Pavlovian" yet? It my help you understand why you are doing what you are doing...and why I consider it so amusing...

....I say...

1) You don't possess that much self control. You will be back.

BTW, its spelled P-A-V-L-O-V-I-A-N. Just doing my part to help.

2) I am not "bashing you" because off your disdain. That was off in the distance - I pointed out how asinine your claimed behavior was, and then I was done with it.

No, what I am doing now is amusing myself with you as a foil. It isn't "bashing"...you will noticed I haven't actually criticized you. I am just responding to your insistence on putting your ignorance and insecurities on display by giving you further opportunities to do so.


You're just in a fighting mood. Not going to work with me.


You have no idea how funny this is. I've seen dogs that were more difficult to train...

What is wrong with men?
Posted: 2/27/2009 6:05:54 AM
I'm not sure if we're still on topic here, but an easy solution would be to put an age limit on the men who message you. For example, go to your mail settings and select the ages you want/don't want. It should solve your problem.

However, if you just wanted an answer to your question, without a solution to the problem, it's because men over 40, just like any OTHER man, will write someone he's attracted to. It's that simple.

Well, mylifeasme I'm glad you're having such a good time...cause so am I!

And, yes Einstein...I have heard of Pavlov and his experiments with dogs...etc...boring
Actually, most people have. Thank you for that earth-shattering display of knowledge.


It isn't "bashing"...you will noticed I haven't actually criticized you.


So you haven't been bashing me eh? Okayyyy..

Says in your profile that you're separated. Wow...that's a surprise, poor girl probably had to get serious therapy for a while after living with you.

Like I said, if this amuses you, then at least I can find one thing that we have in common.

Alright...I've run out of popcorn now and patience. I don't mind watching a few spats that go a little distance, nor being in any myself from time to time - let's just say that both of you have had the last word. The two of you have overstayed your sparring welcome. Go back to your corners and...well... stay there. Enough already, it's getting way old.

I'm not going to get into this with you because you have a long way to go before you understand my point.

The main things you've proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, is your vitriol, and the miniscule scope of intellect and knowledge your mind possesses, which in turn falsely misguides you into thinking that your extreme prejudices and malicious actions and nature are justifiable.

Which they are not.

Your opinions are fed by your lack of knowledge, your societal, cultural or religious upbringing, and therefore you lack the ability( or choose to override it to justify your malevolence) to look at a topic and discuss it from a purely academic perspective.

Biologically speaking, a female can reproduce offspring as early as age 10. By her twenties, her ability to reproduce is already in decline.
A man's ability to produce sperm can continue into his 70's and even further.

You may be personally appalled and disgusted by the fact that it might, in fact, be biologically driven, and natural for an older man to have sexual urges that include younger women, but you have no basis in actual fact in which to do so.

Nature made that possible, not "dirty old men".

Academically speaking of course...

To add to this, we women notice when men are looking at us. In general, most men are not gawking rudely at us. The only time in recent memory I can recall being disgusted by a man looking at me was when he proceeded to look me up and down. He was my age.

Class-less people come in all ages.

The OP is a poopy head."

What? the squirrel pooped on her head? Sounds messy.

Says in your profile that you're separated. Wow...that's a surprise, poor girl probably had to get serious therapy for a while after living with you.

OK, now,Faith, meaning no disrespect, but that was uncalled for/out of line. "I can see why you are single"( separated,divorced) is an acceptable comment/retort/observation. But to publicly speculate about the ex's need for remedial mental health treatment is a bit much, IMO. Yes, I GET that he's beginning to piss you off, but lets leave people's exes out of it when it has nothing to do with the topic, which happens to be "what is wrong with men" ( or at least that's what it was when we began this exercise in futility!)
My answer would be that from where I sit, there is nothing wrong with men overall,generally speaking. Yes there are individuals and small groups who definitely have one thing or another "wrong" with them. But for the OP to take her personal distaste for being contacted by men over 40, and extrapolate that to a serious flaw shared by all men...well, let's call it an unfair generalization. Whether or not making that generalization constitutes "poopyheadedness" on the OPs' part, I wouldn't dare to speculate. I don't have enough current knowledge of the poopyhead condition, the latest research etc, to make an informed comment. I will have to defer to posters better versed in that subject.

Ya know what?

MANY men are just looking at the pictures. They don't look at the rest of the details. if they have an option to contact, THEY WILL!!! I bet half the time, if they don't have any filters themselves, they don't even know how old most of the women that catch their eye are.

Again I say... Filters, OP. And quitcherbiotchin.

I'm sure many men do that - but this guy looked me right in the eye and then proceeded to move his head up and then down. It wasn't just his eyes doing it.
