I've said it before and I'll say it again:

Every woman who wants a sensitive man, deserves one.

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Too late every body knows now.

[pissant]

I like that!

[pissant]

Well, we'll just have to carry on our bebauchery in public then! ;o)

[Tax-chick]

My rule for makeup is, if you can be sure I'm wearing any, it's too much. (Except for dancing, because you have to pile on the makeup or your face looks like a blank oval.)

I never thought of Jackie Chan as metrosexual ... guess I haven't been paying much attention!

[Mr. Jeeves]

On the other hand, if I see a man wearing lipstick I make sure to ask him how 'bout those Giants?

Nah, the "gay community" here doesn't like the Giants because "their fans make homophobic remarks." ;)

The Giants draw a surprisingly normal crowd from all around the Bay Area - the flaky elements in San Francisco tend to look down their noses at professional sports and stay away from SBC Park.

Damn, Am I the only guy who still uses soap on a rope?

I should have known. All the signs were there. You're in prison, aren't you? ;-)

That's why you love me! ;o)

You throw that line around pretty freely, don't you? ;-)

[R. Scott]

This reminds me of many of the commercials on American TV. Ads aimed at men to get us to remove “unsightly, embarrassing” (?) body hair. Skin conditioners and hair dyes. What’s next? Lip stick and foundation?

[JohnnyZ]

Let's put it this way, the very last outtake at the end of Heart of Dragon shows Jackie skipping side to side down the street, hands out.

It's one of the reasons Jackie lost some of his martial arts status to people like Jet Li -- sometimes he abandons masculinity in the interest of humor. Contrast that to Shaolin Wooden Men (1976) or even later movies like Gorgeous (1999) where he plays more digified characters and doesn't let himself become the joke.

[pissant]

You're in prison, aren't you? ;-)

ROFL. Sometimes it feels that way. But on the bright side I'd have lotsa bee-yatches under my command. ;o)

I was SO hurt by your response to that yesterday, I cried myself to sleep! ;o)

[pissant]

don't forget the bra!

[R. Scott]

The Ted Kennedy Bra?

[SilentServiceCPOWife]

I was SO hurt by your response to that yesterday, I cried myself to sleep! ;o)

That's because you love me. ;-)

I've got to drag my butt out of the house to find something to wear to this shindig tonight. I don't want to go the party, it's pouring rain, and I hate shopping.

[pissant]

Happy shopping. Pick me up a six pack, honey! ;o)

[pissant]

the Bro!

[Tax-chick]

Interesting. I do like Jet Li's style, and I especially like Chow Yun-Fat, so mature and dignified.

[Dallas59]

What's Soap? *grunts*

[JohnnyZ]

Yeah, I'm surprised Chow Yun-Fat doesn't get more play. Maybe he just needs better roles than "Replacement Killers" with Mira Sorvino. He was great in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Bald Guy.

You'd probably enjoy an early Chow Yun-Fat that I happen to own, The Postman Fights Back (1981). That movie has Everything -- well, it's a little short on sex, but it's extraordinarily well-rounded on violence.

[Tax-chick]

needs better roles than "Replacement Killers" with Mira Sorvino

I think that goes without saying. I'll look for "The Postman," thanks.
