That was probably John. He was the meanest Beatle.

That driver just sounds very mean tbh lol Ringo is pretty old now, it was probably just an accident.

Great scene, classic movie. If you're a foodie, it's a must watch. It's also a pretty good rom-com. Erotic and funny. https://www.eater.com/2016/11/4/13513292/tampopo-movie-ramen-review "We’ve already seen him place live prawns in an upturned bowl, suck whipped cream off his lover’s left breast. But shellfish and dairy is just foreplay for ova and the sequence in which the couple passes a raw yolk from his mouth to hers and back again until it — the yolk, them, us — is overcome with excitement and bursts, sending bright yellow strands running down her chin. It’s that weird chiaroscuro combination of explicit and implicit that sears itself into our psyches."

Ah, but it is temptation! Curiosity may have killed the cat...but it had 8 more lives left to indulge and enjoy. Exploring and embracing mystery is one of the joys of life. Yes, and that's part of the intrigue. Even if you know it's a trap, the forbidden fruit is exciting. The trap was placed there to entice...why not indulge and reward the efforts of the trapper? My play-style (as a Switch) is on the bratty side so pushing boundaries is part of the game. Provoking, getting caught, and facing the (fun) consequences is the best part.

Hmm, that scenario is rife with possibilities! As the prosecutor, I would lay out my case with logic and fervor. As the witness, I'd support the prosecution. As the defendant, I'd make a grandstanding emotional appeal to the jury...but somehow, I don't think that would work in this courthouse. And the judge...she's looking at me with a steely gaze (and wearing black nylon and leather). There's also a sly smirk on her face, like she's going to enjoy handing down her verdict. And punishment. Uh-oh. 😳 Would throwing myself on her mercy work? Can I talk my way out of this somehow...?

Easy - within the first minute. It's an open bag (implied), so it's not like you're uncovering a closed box and violating space. An open bag is fair game for an innocent peek over the top. Also, maybe it was left for you to see! A test of your curiosity. Maybe you don't know your not being watched - don't you want to give the domme the satisfaction of observing your reaction? Play along. Don't be boring...give into temptation! And if there are consequences, well, that's when the fun starts. 😁

Looks like the outing was a blast, thanks for sharing. For another suggestion... Do you like hidden places filled with secrets inside? Please Don't Tell

That makes sense. Without meaning to ruin the fantasy here, I think the dommes are just normal people with a very interesting job! 😉 When they go home, they probably want to decompress and nurture other parts of themselves. Some might even want to be dominated in their personal life after expending tons of energy (emotional, physical, mental, social, etc.) on others. Just like a therapist/psychologist needs to unload their burdens to another therapist. It's not easy being 'on' and giving all the time as a performer. Being able to let go and decompress is important for good health. Here are a couple of interesting articles providing some insight: https://therumpus.net/2014/08/07/lessons-i-learned-as-a-dominatrix-10-things-that-dont-exist/ -"Being a pro dom is part theater, part service, part therapy." -"Play is how we learn. One of the many job perks of a dominatrix is the opportunity to embody different archetypes, to be spontaneous, to react to and lead another mind and body in a new direction. A good session is a gorgeous dance, and a good dominatrix can lead with a spirit of fluidity. https://www.vice.com/sv/article/what-do-dominatrixes-do-on-their-days-off-217/ -"Mona writes about motherhood and sex work in the same space, she keeps the two roles very distinct. “Have you ever been to Hawaii?” she asks me. “You get off the plane and the air is different and it helps you get into that vacation mode. The same thing happens at the dungeon. The same thing happens when I pick up my child at school. Each time, I’m stepping into a different world and role.” " -" “You’re taking a lot of people’s energies,” says Mona "

The Pink Plundering Pucker-Pervader?

Yay! Thank you for the gold star. It's fun being a contestant on Wheel of Fortress! Can I buy a vowel, lol? Well, if a moment is stretched too long it might no longer be precious. Scarcity often breeds desire and/or yearning. Or at least nostalgia. Too much of a good thing can lead to failure. Like overloading a recipe with excessive salt or sugar. It's kind of like watching the start of a funny skit on SNL...and they don't know when to end. It goes on and on. Until it's no longer funny. On a similar topic of "precious moments" or encounters, this reminds me of the movie "Before Sunrise". Can you fall in love in less than a day? Stumble upon your 'soulmate' by chance while traveling? And if so, do you risk upending your life to pursue that (potential) love? No spoilers...watch the film. It's a 90's classic.

Two ways to looks at it from my perspective. The logical and the ethereal (spiritual). If you want to spend as much time as possible "On the last summer picnic you’ll have with a loved one", logically you'd like to make the moment last as long as possible. So the "optimal angle" of the sun is the one which extends every delicious second of time you may have left in the day. Ideally on the Summer Solstice. But life is not always logical. Some things cannot be plotted out on a course. They can't be touched. Feelings, emotions, sensations, memories. So the entire post may have been making a point that there is no "optimal angle of the sun", just like you can't "create a language or code" to capture what happens to you when experiencing synesthesia. It's ethereal, maybe even spiritual. Or I could be completely wrong, lol.

And in fairness, even though Bugs was used to always being in control...Lola Bunny was one of the few who could bring him to his knees:

Nope, it's gone. Website has been deleted. Also see Yelp, which reports it as closed. Last review was in 2024: https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-black-ant-new-york-2?sort_by=date_desc For other possibilities, this site seems like a local bug eating source for info: https://www.brooklynbugs.com

Likewise. Loved the old Bugs Bunny cartoons. Such a wise-ass. Playful and clever. My role model, lol. Here's a bit of a switch (pun intended)....from the Red Riding Hood 'toon. "I'll do it, but I'll probably hate myself in the morning...."

Sounds like Punch booked a humiliation-hazing roleplay session, and now is getting some valuable aftercare from his peers! 😉

I admire your adventurousness! Gotta try things in life and put away fear and judgement (many can't do that). I've eaten some bugs before. Was part of a visit to a zoo/nature exhibit. Ate chocolate covered crickets, and Cajun fried meal-worms. Both good. The worms were spicy and crispy. The crickets tasted like chocolate....with a nice little crunch (Nestle's Cricket Bar?) Hey, bring these to your next party! Yummy variety: https://www.edibleinsects.com/product/cricket-sample-pack-set-of-6-flavors/

Insightful topic! Here's an example that wasn't so subtle, but Elvira brought a clever fun domme vibe to her persona. On regular TV no less! How many young boys would develop a taste for BDSM and not even realize it? She was a Badass: And I certainly think many kids wouldn't' get the "How's your Head" inference:

Mentioned this in the thread about movies - the classic food sploshing scene from 9-1/2 Weeks:

Touché. Spoken like a true expert in observing and evaluating human behavior. Maybe these quizzes and perceived archetypes could be used in roleplay therapy sessions... "So, tell me what do you identify with and why?" "What are you afraid of?" "What would you do if you had to confront your fears.....right NOW?!"

Yes, experience is the best teacher. Deeply personal. Movies, porn, or other media are just fun diversions. But media can provide common touchstones and shared cultural references. Like strong female characters such as Lara Croft, Furiosa (Mad Max), Sarah Connor (Terminator), etc. Or for people who like sploshing or food kink, the classic 9-1/2 Weeks (albeit maledom) has a great scene. Fun stuff. Com'on, there's gotta be a kinky or female-dominant movie that you like!

In my view, no. It's a 70 question quiz which 'calculates' an archetype based on your answers. Then at the end, it provides the results. Ideally, you should not 'identify' with the description like it's a choice. If you were honest in your answers, the archetype should reflect your choices. Of course, you need to determine if you agree with the quiz results at the end. I did. But yes, I do understand the power of suggestion. Like horoscopes, lol. The quiz also asks you beforehand what you THINK your top 2 traits are (out of 20). Is the methodology any good? Well, that's a tough question without having a psychology degree. But it seemed accurate for me. Try it out, and tell us what you think! 😁

Go to the link below, fill out your quiz of choice, and put the results into the About Me section of your profile: https://www.buildyourdynamic.com

This is a good reminder for folks to flesh out their profiles....mine was kinda sparse. Protip: Fill out the BDSM Archetype Quiz and/or the "What Kind of Sub Are You?" Quiz

Yes, the one in the upper-left corner, BDSM Archetype Quiz. Great link! Here's what I got (it seems pretty accurate, I am a Switch who enjoys role playing): The Wildcard archetype -Switch- Brat & Hunter You tame and you provoke. The game is everything. ---- When you lead: The Ringmaster You love a target that runs and fights back. The chase and the correction blur together. When you follow The Hellion You run your mouth and then you run. Getting caught is the goal, but they're going to earn it. --- Your Partner The Shapeshifter Switch Hunter & Brat Tamer You chase and you run. Predator and prey live in the same body. Exploration=High Sensation=High ---------- This was a great quiz, thanks for posting @franknot Might be a good thing for people to enter into their Profiles!

Online sources like Literotica, or books? And no movies at all? Interesting. We're all very influenced by our peers and community. But also our childhoods. Dynamics within your family - older or younger siblings, parents. How you behaved and how (or if) you were disciplined. Then you bring that legacy with you into your community. Then it evolves.
