YSaC, Vol. 1087: You know those secrets that you keep? KEEP THEM.

2011 September 27

Me and my lover bought a new bed and no longer have use for this bed. We been together for about 3 months now and its getting pretty serious. We needed to upgrade into a king size bed. This is a great deal for only 40 bucks. the only problem it has is that we have done some sexual stuff in the bed and there is some “other stains” we tryed bleaching it. they wont come out but fourty bucks is good deal.

hes 19 , white about 148lbs
me 61 white about 280lbs.

this might help so you know how we sleep

if up still avail

Why in the name of Serta PerfectSleeper (which is my new drag name) would I need to know ANY of that information? How does being white affect how you sleep? What have you been doing that bleach won’t take care of? AND WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME ALL OF THIS?

Unfortunately, we already know that the brain bleach won’t work on this. Thanks so much, Kate.

    I’m 24, white and about 200 lbs, also I’m totally grossed out by mock-quoted descriptions of stains resulting from bodily fluids.

    This might help so you know how I decide what to buy on craigslist.

    Me thinks that “61 white about 280lbs” is just bragging to anyone who will listen that s/he snagged a “19 white about 148lbs” boyfriend.

      Neither partner in this coupling has the right to brag about anything – except for the ability to write puke-worthy posts. Seems to me these are the people who compete in “Worst _ in America” type competitions. It makes me think of a competitor who can’t carry a tune in a bucket and has to write the lyrics on his/her arm, but somehow thinks he/she has a serious chance at a major record deal and a 40-city tour schedule.

      Now that I’m done overthinking this post, I’m gonna go huddle in the corner with a glass of cognac and one of my three cats, whichever one’s most in the mood for endless pet-ums.

      I didn’t even think about the 61-year-old being a guy! o_O I just thought, “now what 19-year-old boy in his right mind would have a ‘getting serious’ affair with a woman old enough to be his grandmother?!?!?!”

      But, as two guys, it makes a TINY bit more sense. No offense intended to anyone. I just can’t fathom a Mrs. Robinson thing actually occurring if the woman is 40 years his senior. But, I guess stranger things have happened.

      Don’t know why I’m even bothering to find logic in a ysac posting…

      And furthermore, ew about the whole “other stains” thing!

      Well, you know there’s that formula for figuring out the acceptable age range for a partner:
      x = (-b±sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
      where a is the age difference between the two people, b is the difference between their two heights, and c is the difference between their two weights.

    Wait, your relationship is “getting pretty serious” so you need to upgrade to a king size bed?

      Well, if they’re getting real violent and doing like sexual gymnastics, a king sized bed maybe the only bed big enough to contain their, “love”, if you know what I mean. It kind of breaks the mood when one of you ends up in the floor. Not that I know from personal experience. Of course not.

      I mean, rug burns are bad, but they ain’t got nothing on the marks left when you hit a hardwood floor doing eighty. Cause, you know, splinters.

      It upsets me to posit it, but I believe Sparky is implying the impressiveness of his ‘man-parts’ by telling us:

      me 61 white about 280lbs.

      ETA: Huh. I just googled conversion for those weights (we work in kilos, where 240 is a BIG number) and Sparky isn’t the heifer I’d assumed he was. Unless he’s like 4-foot tall. ‘Course, a 61-year old with no concept of TMI scoring a 19-year old for extended periods of time (presumably without stupefying and/or restraining said 19-year-old) is still indicative of, shall we say, impressive qualities?
