Girls like sex to be a bit rough. Secretly they are looking for you to take charge and show a bit of aggression. They may never admit it, but they love to relinquish the control to you.   >:D

this is when she says, "no" but means, "yes"!   :D ;D

Not going to lie, there is some truth to that :-X

Q: Did you hear about the race between the lettuce and the tomato?
A: The lettuce was a "head" and the tomato was trying to "ketchup"!

Breaking the ice for a true fact.

Because the tomato has seeds and grows from a flowering plant botanically it is classed as a fruit not a vegetable.

One of the common early uses of Heroin, which was marketed as non-addictive, was to help treat people who were addicted to morphine, even though Heroin ultimately proved to be more addictive.  When morphine was first isolated from opium in 1805, one of its early uses was a “non-addictive” drug to treat people who were addicted to the less addictive opium.

Wow, no wonder Hmong folks who are stricken with body pain would turn to opium ???

Three or four spider species live in most North American homes, and they all tend to be found either tending their webs or hunting in nonhuman-infested areas. During their forays, they usually don’t intentionally crawl into a bed because it offers no prey  (unless it has bed bugs, in which case that person has bigger problems).
