To the cute Newfie I brought home from the bar the other night – sorry for acting cold afterwards. I hadn’t done anything like that in a while and wasn’t sure how to approach it. We had good conversations that night and you actually seemed like a really chill, nice guy. Just wanted to apologize for not being the most hospitable lay and thank you (and your very kind friend) for being cool. Hope all is well! —Another Irish Jew

these are just so cute.
To you, my irish jewish friend: a) im a nova scotian, not a newfie b) you could have offered me a glass of water when you got up to get yourself one because, after a night of drinking my face off, it would be a safe bet that i could use a glass of water too, c) thanks for begrudgingly giving me some of your water d) otherwise it was fun, e) happy hannukah and merry christmas
Lord Dundering Jesus, OP the very least you could’ve done was make the poor Irish Jew a corned beef sammich after all he did eat pork all night so he obviously doesn’t take his Judaism seriously.
Seriously OP you didn’t offer the man a glass of water? That was rude
Oh my gosh, all such good points! At least you got an apple..
Turns out I wasn’t really ready for that and I took it out on you like an immature-grumpy-drunk-girl, which you obviously didn’t deserve. Anyway, just trying to own up to it. Sorry again, I truly feel bad.
Happy holidays.
^^appropriate screen name, crock… My bad
call me an old fashioned free-love hippy, but reading so many posts about spontaneous sexual encounters fraught with angst….doesn’t anyone just have a good time romping in bed anymore? breaking a boxspring? applause from neighbours?
^was trying to avoid angst. Otherwise would have said “call me progressive but he could have gotten out of bed to get his own water, or at least offered me an orgasm before expecting me to nurse the hangover he willingly gave himself”
*not sure why I felt so bad??
Ok ok ok i think i have a solution – next time i come over i will get you an orgasm sandwich and a glass of water and we can call it even. Why cant we all get along?
these aren’t sounding so cute anymore.
Whatscreenname I was joking.Forgive me if I insulted you in anyway.
If anyone is a free love hippie, Molly, I got you beat. hahahaha.
pbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbt klyde. just because you still LOOK like you did 30 years ago. I used to have hair too, man. but inside this pneumatic, limping dowager still beats the ‘eart of the long haired fiery red head who stopped traffic. I can still stop traffic but nowadays its because of my cane! I shakes it at them.
I shakes my finger at them, lol.
if you shake that finger more than 3 times klyde, you’re playin’ with it. just sayin.
Too funny, I’m an old man….I forgot what it’s like to play with it, lol
