There is some supposed benefits for posture in sitting on one of those, although I think that if you're caught on a weird angle you'll be unnecessarily straining muscles to keep balanced. I just have an ergonomic office chair, nothing special and nothing new. Of course, one could take a page from Canon where they've eliminated office chairs. Yeah, that's right, Canon employees stand, and apparently it makes them more active and sociable than when they spend the day crammed into a chair. -Monokuro

So surprised nobody made a joke about hurricanes and them being one . I'll take the Canadian route and say I'm a Chinook wind warm, wet, and will melt your heart Someone had to make a joke about wind power equating to sexual endowment -Monokuro

LOL "retreat" or "retract" how about both! And what is this thing you can see in my eyes? A crazed lust for violence and pain? Mistress Ree, both those terms mean the same thing, so yes, both is the perfect answer. I can't really see anything in a person's eyes, but SW can judge someone's temperament, personality, and even sexuality with fairly good accuracy. It is pretty damn freaky. Anyways, the first day you appeared on the website he looked over my shoulder and said, "You know, I can judge that her personality is light and she is playful, but she also has a stern side to her but only in serious situations. She's also straight, and you don't have a shot." That last comment was like "Gee, thanks, man." -Monokuro I'll try to get him to explain it better.

Mark my words Mustang, that condescending tone is going to get you in a great deal of trouble one of these days! Perhaps from "Poor" Jessy Kang the "Confused Poster" herself!!! LOL Mustang, best advice, play dead, Mistress Ree is laying down the law. LOL The two verbs you should be considering are either "retreat" or "retract" in terms of your comments and yourself. How do I know, you can see it (I can't but others can, wtf?) in her eyes...

Its early here, and I don't know why but my mind has been dwelling on that analogy all night. I think it could be applied to trust, like if somebody abuses the trust between you then it never quite goes back to normal. That analogy could've been, vaguely, applied to the "cheating on your mistress" thread. Now I want to go bug people and get them to tell me their odd analogies. If memory serves, Todd the Barista at Starbucks compared love to an espresso machine... I must get it down on paper. -Monokuro

Anime! Or should I say Ahn-ime! *books it out of the room* I recommend Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei if you like really strange and funny anime. It blends different animation styles, some flashbacks, with inner thoughts, and goes off on tangents all over the place. His life sucks. The main character is a total pessimist, he's a school teacher who is always dressed in traditional Japanese garb instead of pants or a shirt and talks about how his students will fail. And in one of the first episodes he tries to hang himself which is how he meets one of his students. Here is the -Monokuro Oh, I'd also recommend Code Geass if you need to fill an action quotient of anime.

Weird analogies? Why yes, Mistress Kang, I do have one. Last year I was explained that in South Korea, if you are referred to as a fish farm manager, then that makes you a player. Something something about attracting fish (women) with bait (kindness) and that it made you a bad person if you attracted fish. I quickly derailed that analogy by summing it up as a womanizer, then made it veer towards euphemisms. She hung up pretty damn quickly lol. Actually, the analogy of the elastic band has just reaffirmed my destiny to be a podcaster. Bad thoughts go away. -Monokuro

Mistress Kang, didn't Sanrio make it that way out of a marketing thing? Or was it a nod to feminism... I don't know, I had an ex who was an aficionado on the topic. I've always found Hello Kitty strange (her bedspread and wallpapered room did not help), but I do acknowledge that it does have tactical applications. -Monokuro

If it isn't spockme then I'm guessing Dannyboy. I like however, that everyone has painted spockme as the most daring and devoted, which is a good thing, until you factor in the possible (probable) beating by 7 Mistresses. Then it fades from daring and devoted to that whole "curiosity killed the cat" thing. Best of luck.

Mistress Ree, I'm amazed that you think I'm spot on, also a little flustered since alluring females don't really you know, take my word for it until it is too late. I thought I could pull this point further, but apparently I can't. Also, I definitely accept that quest, and I will work hard on creating that buzzword for "long term relationship with a loyal sub". -Monokuro

Bill, nice. I think Festivus at the Fortress would be interesting. Airing of grievances turning into a humiliation fiesta. The feats of strength would be interesting with punishments for each loss. Although I won't dare hypothesize what would occur with the aluminum pole. :shock: -Monokuro

Disclaimer: Someone is going to jump down my throat for this, and to Mister Winerack, I don't mean this in a cynical or offensive way. Mistress Kang, feel free to trounce me. A dominant-submissive relationship, at least in my lens, isn't confined by the same constraints and limits of monogamous relationships. First off, you're talking about a relationship where there is more power and control entitled to one party over another, which doesn't constitute a full-fledged ideal monogamous relationship. (If you've stumbled into a state of confusion, don't feel bad, I am there myself. Skip the third paragraph, transitive theory may mess you up ) As both parties are not equal, it actually becomes understandable, and even justifiable that through restrictive elements in a relationship dissidence would occur. This dissidence happens to take the form of "cheating" in the eyes of certain users. Using a monogamy perspective, or closed relationship, for a submissive to seek out another dominant to be considered cheating then by that same logic if the dominant interacts with another submissive that would technically make them the adulterer. Mistress Ree talked of a sub, theoretically, tasting the "forbidden fruit" which would effectively elevate the dominant-submissive relationship to a level near a truly monogamous relationship, which would then constitute cheating by varying definition. A provider-client relationship doesn't hold the definition of cheating very well as often each interaction is on the basis of a business transaction. By this type of definition for infidelity, have you ever received an emotional call from Verizon sobbing into the phone "I saw you on the corner of 5th and Main with that AT&T hussy! How could you do that to me?" It doesn't work, intimate relationships are different than business relationships. We don't treat our clients strangely and they certainly don't apologize to us when they get another contractor to make sure someone doesn't jack their gear. If this is considered cheating for a client to seek out another provider perhaps for a new try or even just a change of pace, its business, it happens. Those are my thoughts on the matter. -Monokuro

As Mistress Ree referenced to, that is what the safe word is for. That or you can session with Mistress Ree since she'd have already seen this post of your's. You'll be fine, I can tell that this one is a kind hearted one (Haven't met you yet, Mistress Ree, but I can tell) much like all the Fortress ladies and will definitely understand and gently push your boundaries. Best of luck.

Mistress Ahn! I found more great hats, although I must warn you, they are quite gothic lolita (well in this case it is gurokawa). HANGRY&ANGRY, I actually have one of the dolls sitting on my dresser and strangely I don't get nightmares anymore. Jester-ish hat Toque with buttons, a bit of chain, and cat ears Mutant Snowman Hat/Scarf with claws Since I cannot read Japanese, I don't know about international ordering. If you find the English version, you clearly have a skill set that I don't. I've seen h.naoto attire on sale here, in Canada, but I don't know about direct shipping. -Monokuro

Mistress Kang, Congratulations to you and the other goddesses on overclocking the poor sub's biological processor, you know he would have gotten a mental BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) if you had continued past an hour. Sensory overload from 5x the beauty, the pain, and the strike impacts. I'm making an educated guess in theorizing that his just-passed cold, his recent rheumatism (very unsure term), that recovery was probably incomplete. Still you may have stumbled upon the healthy limit, which means you should totally push it. It just isn't a party until its a Nine-Some or an enneagonal (another very unsure term) bullying circle. -Monokuro

Mistress Ahn! More internet searching for the lovely gaming mistress! Hats, oh hats, Hats in the Belfry is a good site to look but they focus on real normal hats or costume hats. These made me nod in approval of the varying levels of awesome: http://www.hatsinthebelfry.com/product/lobster-hat-21145.html http://www.hatsinthebelfry.com/product/cotton-ivy-cap-goorin-sophomore-103-4329.html http://www.hatsinthebelfry.com/product/braided-contour-cloche-belfry-deebo.html http://www.hatsinthebelfry.com/product/ball-cap-bailey-come-get-it-98008.html Here's some cute plush hats with bunnies and stuff. http://www.cute-plush.com/piratebunnyhat.htm http://www.cute-plush.com/bluepandahat.htm JBOX.com has Totoro and Domo-kun hats! http://www.jbox.com/PRODUCT/HAT-TOT2BLUE http://www.jbox.com/PRODUCT/HAT-DOMOH4 I'll see what else I can dredge up from the internet.... -Monokuro

Mistress, To answer your question, no. I am not superstitious, I do believe that most things are coincidental or karma. On a semi-related note, I know someone who, for three consecutive years has always had some bad event happen to him on the 29th of October around noon. Every year. I think he needs superstitions (or to spend that day in the Fortress) to cure him of his curse. What, in your expert opinion, do you think? Are you superstitious? -Monokuro

CAS, Some people may have stricter moral codes or predispositions about marital aids or what defines an affair. Being honest is a good way. A better way though, is to be honest and prove your love by being around beautiful women yet only looking in your SO's eyes with the fiery passion that you married spawned your love for them. The world is not black and white, it isn't really shades of grey or colours of the rainbow. You cannot define it as right or wrong since those are heavily influenced by the beholder. Make a list or a gradient and plot out the reasons and consequences of actions, it may help you visualize what to do and how to make the best decision. Just don't make your simple pros and cons into a confusingly infuriating grid like one person I know, it really doesn't have to be that complicated. Your feelings, their reactions, your actions, your consequences. Positive and negative. Hope I helped, Monokuro

Halloween! I love it so far! Its been awesome! I've scared people in a haunted house, I've partied, and now we're going out to look for unguarded treats before going to more parties! I hope the Mistress have been having a pleasurable night as well -Designated Co-Pilot, Monokuro ps: the ones who have been partaking in the fermented beverages are in charge of getting the candy.

If someone's in the Vector Avtech WX8 they'd only see the Veyron's front for a second before they're just lights on the horizon. Vector's newest supercar has a purported 2000 (or more) horsepower engine capable of cranking out top speeds around 275 miles per hour. No wonder it has HUD interface options, military grade parts, and audio alarms and visual indicators for incoming objects or technical problems. With an insane engine in the back I can't help but offer, ear plugs anyone? I don't think it will get street legal for a while. Another car to watch out for is the 2011 Lexus LFA -Monokuro

Dannyboy, Isn't learning fun? I remember when I totally surprised/shocked a female Korean peer at university by referring to her as "Seonbae" which is kind of like using "senpai" to describe someone with more experience or authority. And she gave me quite a few suspicious looks from that. Anyways, it is always good to know a few words in other languages. Back to the foot-fetish titled song, the lyrics are very compatible with mZ's posts concerning vampires, domination, and writhing bodies with blood. -Monokuro

Well Dannyboy, I love parody songs as well. Parody titles though, well, "Wank It" by Michael Jackson, and Rascal Flatts' unfortunate song name of "Bob that Head" (IT IS A REAL SONG TOO!) As for songs that I listen to quite a bit, Japanese rock duo Ali Project already has an S&M entitled song called "Hizamazuite Ashi wo Oname" which translates somehow to "Kneel Down and Lick My Feet". There's also Bob River's "Walking 'Round in Women's Underwear" for the Christmas jingle or crossdressing needs. Also, the song "Vanilla" by Gackt is so awesome, and the live concert performance demonstrates why I love it. -Monokuro

Maybe he was a fan of James Kang the college baseball star from the Californian Lutheran University. I wouldn't call this one in yet, There's approximately 24000 people in the United States with the surname of Kang (thank you WolframAlpha), and it could be likely that he is in fact J. Kang and number 12 on whatever team. There's nearly a 6% fraction of all people with the surname Kang not being Asian. (How insane is WolframAlpha?) -Just a thought, monokuro

The jackasses and I have a great day of fun planned, since its a Saturday we don't all have work which is good because normally the planets must align for us to meet for coffee. Scary movies during the day when there is a statistically lower chance of zombie, werewolf, and vampire attacks. And then mid-afternoon to early evening we'll go and help out with a charity haunted house. At 8 in the evening or so, we'll have the 5th Annual Rapid-Unguarded-Candy-Reclamation-Raid where we cruise the neighborhood (this year it will be the neighborhood of my cousin) and capture any bowl of Halloween candy left outside by lazy homeowners :twisted:. Then its off to go clubbing.
