I need translation! Lesbos talking about naughtiness and I need to know what :p
Is it not self-evident? Lady flirts with another lady, other lady perceives it as a general/friendly compliment, first lady is frustrated because she's trying to get laid, not just delivering a compliment.

No, it is not. You already know I'm somewhat dense. I would've preferred direct translation so I could try to translate such speak in future :)

Won an eBay auction on Sunday, the seller printed the label on Monday, and fuck-all since then :mad: I'll give them until Sunday before I send a message asking if they plan to actually ship it at some point.

First world problem.

Third world they ship immediately but you get a brick and when you complain, seller is nowhere to be found!

I know she will turn me down so I present her to @Red Squirrel

Look at the upside:

She's your perfect match, loves the offgrids and she can smack you hard any time you think of doing something stupid (like your unnecessary expenses).

And

DeRe Ar nO BaReZ in Scotland!

Go get her, champ!

P.S. just don't ever call potato scones potatao cakes in front of her or you will be sorry. That's considered a national warcrime there.

It's like we were made for each other! I can just picture both of us walking in the forest with flowing red hair.

In stark contrast, a very similar item I won an auction for just over 4 hours ago has already actually been shipped (it's a lot that includes the same item I already bid on and have been waiting to actually ship).

That's what happened to me two weeks ago.
I ordered a couple items from a seller in NC. The tracking update sat in the same place for 9 days.
I wrote to the seller, what's going on? No movement since I paid. I said to just return my money.
I guess he actually brought the item down to the post office and it got to me (cross country) in about 4 days.

He's a shit seller that I won't buy from again. When I was selling on eBay years back, when someone paid, I got the item
sent out that day or the next day. I have 100% selling feedback and this jamoke was at 97%, which I thought should be good enough.
I read later his eBay reviews and yelp reviews too, and his shipping practices were crap.

OMG, the suspense is killing me.

And, yes, I know, you have no intention of telling what this object is.

Fine. Keep your secrets. That's fine. It doesn't bother me in the least.

No, really. Not at all.

I'm just fine. All fine . . .

OMG, "jamoke." I can't remember the last time I heard that.

Grams was 100% Eye-talian. For whatever reason though, I don't think I ever picked up any of the slang. Italian is a very rich language for slang.

Yeah, this is why I don't sell on ebay often, because I'm not good at shipping in a timely fashion. When I do, I already have everything ready to go so I just need to put the invoice in and go drop it off.

It's not of general interest, but it's an octave pedal for guitar, a TC Electronic Sub N Up :p
The second one is that same pedal plus a couple other pedals I don't already own and a DI box.

Say what? That sounds a lot like cheating my friend.

I'm just jealous since the only instrument I can actually squeeze any sound out of is a sax - which vaguely sounds like something dying.

Oh and recorder . . . shhhhhh!

I mean, I could also play bass, but I don't have enough hands to play a bass and a guitar at the same time... yet.

Next time try blowing with your mouth.
haha, fu too (kidding)

Woodwinds, which, at least technically is how saxophone is classified, are not fun instruments to play since you have to press your teeth against your lower lip in order to put the correct pressure on the reed. But of course there are also the double-reed woodwinds like oboe. They probably require a lot less pressure though.

@nakedfrog - that is quite sartorial ensemble you've got there. I almost missed the furry boots. I like the pointy ears (big *trek fan).

Who's the anime character on your . . . bustier?

edit - oh, and who don't like a bit o' the chainmail?
