what's the deal with David Bowie?

wrong forum, that's the deal!

Anxiety said:

let me rephrase the question....what is it about David Bowie, that you invoke his name often..

is it his taste in clothing?

his lean frame (did you see the man who fell to earth)?

his hair styling?

his nickname the White Duke?

BlackAdder7 said:

the whole package, i suppose.

i love the fact that when anyone sees an alien or a freakish club kid on television, they will usually say "ewww, that looks like david bowie!"

i want people to make those comments about me someday.

Anxiety said:

you want people to say "that guy who played the man getting off the bus in that movie looks like an alien"?
or..gee Anxiety looks like david bowie?

BlackAdder7 said:

it's like this. i ate too many garbanzo beans last night. now, you might think this fact has nothing to do with our current discussion, and you would be right. but i know one thing: david bowie is one hell of a performer. his stage presence and magnetism is so strong that i believe it's what earned him the "alien" persona reputation...though what's even more admirable is how, in his dotage, he's found a way to hang on to his legend and sort of chuckle off the glam/new wave/sci fi pretentions of his past personas, while at the same time owning those personas and taking great pride in his past. i love that he presents himself these days as "the guy next door" who just so happens to be a rock legend, former glam drag queen, former druggie trainwreck, and former "voice of the coffee generation" in the 80s, and still has a reputation for being elegant, avant garde and refreshingly self-effacing. that's a very complex list of stuff for a person to have accomplished, not to mention his songwriting has been nothing short of brilliant and he's a fine musician. and that voice. oof. the voice.

but yeah, i should have used one can of garbanzo beans instead of two.

If a guy were to have nice, tanned, clean feet, with neat, regularly cut toe nails, and his flip-flops were either new or kept in clean, pristine condition, would you still have a problem with a guy in flip-flops?

Who would you rather have sex with, me or Kirstie Alley?

NoodleSoup said:

is bowie implied in this question, kind of like the royal "we" or the understood "you"?

Anxiety said:

Just answer the damn question.

You like to torment me, don't you? It's subtle, but doesn't go unnoticed. What are you afraid of? You already said my hairline suits my head shape. There's room for affection between us if you'll let it happen.

NoodleSoup said:

well, i think a good bag of fertilizer suits my tomato plants but it doesn't mean i want to cuddle with it!

Anxiety said:

Who/what would you rather cuddle, me or a bag of fertilizer?

How does it feel to be the object of affection for so many straight guys?

NDRU said:

it makes me feel like a boob.

a pert, perfectly formed, jiggly boob.

or two.

NoodleSoup said:

does this question include kirstie alley as an implied option?

You suck.

um....have you ever felt a jiggly boob (female of course) in the course of foreplay...or have you only had male partners? :blush:

Anxiety said:

those feel great! Why the ?

NoodleSoup said:

i can take that several ways.



no, really. i can.

BlackAdder7 said:

i have known the jiggly boobs. they felt like big rubbery chalkboard erasers to me, like i could clap them together to form a cloud of dust. which is not to say the jiggly boobs were malformed - i was just not partial to them.

Anxiety said:

You make it so hard to love you.

NoodleSoup said:

you should have said "difficult" because here you present another opportunity for a cheap double entendre. maybe i'm your entendre monkey and you want to see me dance tonight. is that it?

Anxiety said:

this is why you're one of the funniest orgers

Anxiety said:

that's not even a doube entendre. that's a Thai come on!

NDRU said:

what does that mean. do i have to go find a bedsheet and cut a hole in it now?

hey did you listen to my mix, yet?

Anxiety said:

:ba-dum-tish:

You're on to me!

But seriously, it is hard.

BlackAdder7 said:

no, seriously, can you see why i'm non plussed by hetero dotage? it's like, "well, if i can't have jiggly boobs, anx is lookin' pretty juicy." WTF?
