To break the funny ice, here's an actual picture of me trying to bring in all my goodies from a Target run:
UO: Given the day, I'm sure it's been said before, but I didn't see Star Wars IV, V, and VI until DH and I were prepping for Episode VII (still haven't seen all of I, II, and III) and I didn't exactly like it. Like they were alright? Maybe if I grew up with them I would have enjoyed them more. But as they are, I could have done without them in my life, and I usually love nerdy things.

Speaking of tattoos, I had an ex that had his ex's name tattooed. Right above his pelvic region, which can only be seen if he has no pants/underwear on and so I had to look at that every time we had sex and I was on top (it was mostly hidden from my view if he was on top). The best part....he got the tattoo after knowing her for only about 2 weeks.
Also, the same ex didn't like BJs. So score for not having to give them for 4 1/2 years! lol

@LoveInDC Thank you I too hate Star Wars. I also hate when I tell people I hate Star Wars and they get personally offended. They're movies, dude. We all like different movies. Get over it.
@lulu1180 I don't mind giving BJs, but that reminds me I had an ex who couldn't get off without wearing a condom, which I thought was really weird (but not a problem because I didn't want to get KU with his kid lol).
@LoveinDC@vflux33 - I'm a mild Star Wars fanatic (I read Star Wars novels instead of chick lit and have a select few graphic novels), and I'm def not offended if people don't like it. If it's not your thing, it's not your thing. Which leads me to my UO of the day....
UO: I hate football. More specifically, I hate football culture. I went to an SEC college. Everyone I know is obsessed with SEC football. If you don't like football where I live, people look at you like you just spit on an American flag. Here's the context: I never quite fit in at my college. While everyone else was having fun with groups of friends tailgating, I was wandering around aimlessly in the sun by myself because I didn't really have a group of friends. I feel like half of the people I know are unreasonably obsessed with a game (omg it's just a game!) and the other half of the people I know PRETEND to be obsessed with a game just to be like everyone else (honestly, not EVERYONE can like football). On my first date with DH he told me he didn't like football and I thought, "Finally! Someone who doesn't care if people know he doesn't like football!" I've actually had people tell me that me saying I don't like football makes people uncomfortable. What???? I don't like iced tea either but why should that make anyone uncomfortable?
I don't think anyone who supports building a wall between the US and Mexico should be able to celebrate Cinco De Mayo. Or eat tacos. Or drink margaritas.
I'll echo @vflux33 that summers in PNW are weird. We don't have AC and it gets miserable if the weather is hot. But I love summer, which seems to be a UO...
I have a tattoo on my ankle that I want removed or covered. It was a spur of the moment $30 tattoo and a place I didn't know by an artist I didn't know. It came out horrible and I hate it.
@sunniegrly - so I don't hate football, but I definitely hate the SEC-culture. I went to a Big12 school that became an SEC school the year after I graduated. I went to a few games here and there after the switch and I cannot stand the the SEC hoopla. I do not understand the dressing up! Guys wearing khakis and douchey shirts and girls wearing full makeup with their hair done and cute, color-coordinated dresses? It's an outdoor event, I just want to wear jeans or athletic shorts and a t-shirt! Thankfully the SEC will never be able to completely overpower our midwestern sensibilities here, but I still cannot stand it.
Maybe it's an UO, but I'd take east coast brusqueness over southern charm any day.

@sunniegrly I haaaaate football. But I really hate all sports and the fan cultures surrounding them. When I first met DH I thought he didn't like sports, but it turns out he just liked me a lot and wanted to do what I wanted to do back then. Fast forward and he watches football, soccer, golf, basketball and hockey, and he signs up for the sports channels that show the international games so there is literally never a moment without sports. Terrible. I got so mad about it 5 years ago that I started keeping track of how many hours we spent watching sports and he had to agree to spend an equal amount of time watching Grey's Anatomy. We watch less sports now.
ALSO re: Star Wars, my husband is covered in Star Wars tattoos, and I strongly suspect the primary reason he wanted to date me originally is because my parents worked on the movies.
@vflux33 Couldn't get off without a condom?? Interesting. Did he ever say why that was?
@LoveInDC Fun! Please share your ex related UOs or stories. I want to hear the good ones!
I hate Star Wars. Hate.
I totally love giving blowjobs. (I mean, just to DH, to be clear.)
UO: I secretly hate any other forms of foreplay (except giving a good beej- as I said) and only entertain them because DH likes it. Kissing? Meh. Receiving oral? Snore. I've just never liked it.
@kbamomma33 I like giving DH bjs as well just because he enjoys them so much. Also, how can you not love receiving oral???? I wish DH would give it more often!!!

@lulu1180 I'm one of those weirdos that orgasms from penetration. I've literally never had an O from oral in my life. It's ok, and DH likes doing it, so I'll play along. But in my mind I'm like, "I just want to bang! I don't have time for your games!"
Okay, here's my thing about blow jobs. Orgasms feel like orgasms. I don't think an orgasm from DH's mouth feels any better than one from his hand nor one from his dick (nor one from my hand for that matter); the only difference is efficiency. I get off much faster from his mouth than anything else (well, not a vibrator, but...whatever). With that in mind, since he gets off quite easily from sex, I just don't see the point of BJs. Like, if I could get wet and orgasm as easily as he can from sex, I would never need him to go down on me.
Fun aside, one of my girl friends recently told me she can ONLY orgasm if a guy comes inside her (sans condom). Like, what? Like, can't get off from oral sex, solo sex, anything. Just p in v with some s.

ETA: Wow this was way dirtier/TMI than I intended lol Apologies in advance.
Ooo I highly disagree with that. There are so many types of orgasms for me:
Dry hand on the clit, but I'm determined so I just power through like scratching an itch.
Wet and horny external ones that feel like a huge release.
Surprise ones that go from 0 to 100 in seconds.
Holy heck, what is my body doing.
G-spot from the inside out ones.
Waaaay kinky fantasy ones that snap me to reality.
Granted, the type isn't necessarily determined by who is involved or what is done. But I'm more likely to have certain ones when DH is involved and when he does certain things. Having a human tongue lick my clit is not the same feeling/orgasm as when I do something to myself. DH has different orgasms too based on his hand v. my hand v. my mouth v. my vagina v. my ass.
Is that not the same way with everyone?

@vflux33@lulu1180 Ooo can we keep this ex-SO theme going for FFFC? I have some good ones.
YES. I have an unrelated FFFC for tomorrow but in my view if 99% of FFFCs were either poop or sex related, that means it was a good Friday.
@sunniegrly I LOATHE football and MH doesn't like any spectator sports and to me that is the best thing ever if for no other reason than because we have all this time that *would* be going toward watching sports when we can do other things instead. @doxiemoxie212 That's hilarious YH lied about liking sports. He must've been really into you! But I totally disagree about orgasms just being orgasms--when I have one from oral it feels totally different to me than one from penetration. I'm not alone in that, right?
@mschanandlerbong1214 My advice if you really want to go forward getting it removed is go to a plastic surgeon and do NOT go to any places that advertise for removals and don't have a doctor. I did that at first because it was cheaper and they all had outdated lasers (which hurt more by the way) and you'll need more treatments to get something not totally removed (which makes it not cheaper). I recommend the laser called "PicoSure".
@Maggie1202 If you're in North Bay and have a referral for a RE (saw in your Newbie thread post) it is probably the same RE I'm going to! Let's PM
@kbamomma33 I think he was really freaked out about getting someone KU and about STDs and that it got so ingrained in him that he couldn't forget that during sex. It was super weird though.
@vflux33@LoveInDC IDK bruh, like, orgasms just feel good. If it takes longer, sometimes it feels more intense, but not all the time. Feels the same to me. I can also make myself orgasm via exercise (actually the first way I learned how to orgasm, and man did I have some great abs that summer before 7th grade), and that feels the same too! But I can only orgasm via clitoral stimulation. Like, I can orgasm from penetrative sex, but only if DH's pubic bone is rubbing my clit. So. IDK?
ETA: DH would probably like me to point out that he did not lie to me, I just assumed he did not like sports because he did not actively watch sports. You know what they say about assuming.
Question: Do you guys have to fantasize super hard to orgasm, though? Like, whether I'm alone, with DH, hands, mouth, vagina, whatever, I have to run through a fantasy in great detail in my head to get off. Are you guys more in the moment? I get too distracted if I don't focus focus focus. So maybe it's like, a scenario thing?

It depends. If I'm doing something sexy with DH, I can just focus on the idea of that and the stimulation. If I'm on my own, I run through a few scenarios to see what hits me. On the rare occasion I'm with DH and just not getting there because he's not hitting the right spots or I didn't warm up enough, I pull in some fantasy and think of dialog to encourage me along. But I do have to focus. If I break concentration to say something or consciously move, I usually have to start over.

@doxiemoxie212 No, I don't fantasize. I have to be very much in the moment. If you can only orgasm from clitoral stimulation that makes total sense why it feels the same. I have both kinds and they are very different both in sensation as well as my physical reaction.
