in all your Amours you should prefer old Women to young ones.
Because in every Animal that walks upright, the Deficiency of the Fluids that fill the Muscles appears first in the highest Part: The Face first grows lank and wrinkled; then the Neck; then the Breast and Arms; the lower Parts continuing to the last as plump as ever: So that covering all above with a Basket, and regarding only what is below the Girdle, it is impossible of two Women to know an old from a young one. And as in the dark all Cats are grey, the Pleasure of corporal Enjoyment with an old Woman is at least equal, and frequently superior, every Knack being by Practice capable of Improvement.
@tinamarie1974 - Franklin was apparently very popular with the opposite sex and had a notorious reputation. He was a wise ass and the rock star of his day.
Thanks! Still looking…even if you’ve never dressed up with a sig other, have you seen any?
My husband and I dressed up as Dog and Beth (RIP, Beth…) a few years back.
@moonhat I can answer your question with a cool story bro.
I was managing a popular 24hr diner about 30 years ago when Halloween was on a Saturday night. As people came in all dressed up we were taking their pictures with a Polaroid camera. We posted these under the glass at the register…fun times! Lots of funny costumes!
Come to find out Monday morning when one ol’ boy came in looking for his picture he had been stepping out on his woman. He didn’t even remember getting his picture taken; somebody else had spotted it. But we had it, the evidence. lol
I gave him his picture and he gave me a $10 tip. ha ha.
I don’t remember if their outfits matched.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So Bob Ross is probably going to be overdone this year, and I’ve mentioned it in a previous topic already but my wife has decreed that I shall be Bob Ross and she shall be a happy trees painting at a party we are going to this year.

@therealjrn Well, request is in. I keep the digital photos and my better half keeps the old-fashioned paper ones. I browsed through my photo directory a few nights ago and didn’t see what I was looking for. (Surely at least one of those was while we were using digital cameras?!) So the next morning I asked my wife to look for our old costume pictures (as she was leaving the house). I got the “Oh, I’ll get right on that!” look. I may have to ask her really nicely.

Hubby and I were the Wayne and Garth from Wayne’s World. Even though I’ve always wanted to be a blonde I was stuck being Wayne because I’m shorter and as Garth he got to wear the beautiful blonde wig. Costumes were easy as anything to make too. I just had to make sure my black tee shirt was oversized enough to hide my ample errr umm feminine assets.
One year, for a Halloween costume party, SWMBO and I dressed in formal clothes- myself in a violet full-ruffle tuxedo shirt and black dress pants, she in white poet’s shirt [not pirate shirt Ala-Seinfeld ] and black dress slacks, then on my left side, and her right side, we had lacerations, abrasions, embedded glass, and compound fractures.
All of which we fabricated using latex appliances we sourced at Party City, and applied through slits cut in the clothing, and glued on with liquid latex.
[Luckily neither of us had any latex allergies…]
We then used stage make-up to add realism to the wounds.
Our premise was that we were driving on our way to the party, when our car got crushed by getting T-boned against a light pole - causing all of both our injuries to be on the window side of where we were each seated in the car.
There were a couple of cool things about the costumes- for one, when you saw us standing face to face, we either looked completely uninjured [which is not to say normal], and from the other side, we looked like heck.
Also, when we took off the clothes, the latex wounds peeled off our skin, but stayed attached to the clothing, so [if we could still fit into them ] the costumes could be re-worn and the wounds would still look almost completely realistically horrible.

@CaptAmehrican you do know that is sort of presumptive … right???
@chienfou i didn’t mean it in a presumptuous way , i am sorry if offensive. If it doesn’t apply perhaps not a good idea. Or if you dislike coconut.
Salt and pepper is another idea
Coffee and tea
Bert and Ernie

@CaptAmehrican @chienfou
What’s with all these presumptuous choices?
Beige & beiger is the only safe choice.
@CaptAmehrican @therealjrn original reference was to one “having nuts”… (and was actually a joke…)

@tinamarie1974 - He gave several other reasons.
(But imagine the costume possibilities!)
@aetris yeah, I just got stuck reading the “covering all above with a basket”. I mean he was not very attractive. I wonder if he realized…

One year my wife was (visibly) pregnant at Halloween, so she dressed as a nun and I dressed as a devil (complete with horns). Got lots of chuckles.
