might work better if: (I have a theory...
I've realised that my sarcasm and cynicism here might have been due to the fact that I am luckily a single woman.
And although I have no objection whatsoever (in fact I welcome >>>topics and conversations and webchat about babies and boyfriends and feelings and emotions and health and beauty & music and jokes and everything else important to a woman,
I have found it upsetting and troublesome to attempt to comprehend having a modess posting naked pix of her partner on one thread and allowing him to post pix of her tits and new expensive hairdo on another. I find the entire Mike n' Laura Show superfluous and I'm being as polite and and tactful as possible.

Pipe down Linda! The whole reason I come here is the hope of getting a peek at Lauras big boobies.
-
I'll be honest, i enjoy seeing the pics they post and of others on here for that matter...
Try this Linda as it is a little something i've try to teach my soon to be 12 year old daughter...if you are around a situation you do not like, you are uncomfortable with, makes you irratated, gets you mad, makes you sad...WALK AWAY...STEP AWAY...life is rough at times as it is, and there is no need to purposely put yourself in that type of situation. So far i think it's workin' for her.
Hope i helped.

Better yet, get more obsessed with them than you already are and click on their profile, click last posts, jot down where they have posted and tell yourself "HELL NO, I AINT GOIN' THERE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike and Laura are good people. They don't bother anyone yet many like to take jabs at them. What they do (Mike most of the time) in terms of funny pics and so forth is done out of sheer humour. Harmless fun. If you don't like it....don't respond to the thread and move on. Simple as that. Some people take this internet message board way to seriously. That's the problem.

Linda,
I'm going to try to give you a bit of my perspective on the situation because I think i understand why you find much of it offensive (Heaven help me I'm beginning to understand you) ;)
When I first saw the Mike n' Laura show as you call it many years ago. I thought it was one of the most vulgar displays of narcissistic exhibitionism and sexist machismo I'd ever witnessed (surpassed only in recent months by Ol_Rooster). ie: Look at me, I'm cool now, I've lost weight, moved out of my Mom's basement, and I have a pretty girlfriend. or "Look at me, aren't I sexy as I pose half nude on this waterbed." "Do I make you horny?" etc., etc., That was the initial impression I was left with. My eyes rolled so far back in my head, I'm surprised I could pull them forward to see straight.
I chose to simply ignore them and their posts.
After a while though. They started to grow on me. As I got to know them a little better, I realized they weren't the insecure attention whores I thought they were. They have alot of confidence in themselves. ;) It helps to understand the bodybuilder mentality though. Once I understood that, it went a long way towards understanding the seemingly narcissistic and superficial values seemingly displayed by most bodybuilders
You see bodybuilders are like artists. Whether they be painters, sculpters, gardeners, musicians etc. most artists who have a website, place their works online for all to admire. Gardeners take pics of their prize winning roses or orchids and put them online for all to admire. The difference though is that while the painter's works on a canvas, the bodybuilder's body is his/her canvas. The only way to display the results of their hard work and effort is to display themselves. So when mikey displays pics of Laura, it's not so much a "Look at my hot girlfriend, drool and masturb8." It's the equivalent of Mrs. Picasso saying "Look at this wonderful abstract painting my husband painted."
It's a tremendous amount of hard work & discipline to rescult the human body. It's not like a clump of clay that you can mold at whim, so when you are able to effect the kind of changes in your canvas, that you seek, it's a tremendous accomplishment that they want to share with the world in order to both receive recognition for their hard work, as well as to provide continued inspiration to others who themselves are on the same journey. If you have followed the transformation of pudgey chubby Mikey to trophy winning fit Mikey, you'd see what I'm talking about.
When viewed from that perspective it's much easier to understand, and infact you might find yourself looking forward to more progress reports.
That said Mikey still needs to retire that bathtub shot. {lol}
As for your getting ticked that mikey occasionally log's into Laura's mod account, ...well, you gotta point there. I don't think he should be doing that. Mods have been demodded for giving out their passwords to others or allowing others to abuse someone else's mod priviledges, so I think Mikey should be mindful of that. I've never seen Tasha log in to Bob's account in order to mess with someone's post, or any significant others of mods doing this. I don't think Mikey should be doing this either.
Also too, understand that where the other is concerned, both of them are blind to a fault. The other can do no wrong in their eyes. They are good people, ...just give them enough time to grow on you.
Hope that Helps

Thanks jag! Just one thing...when in love...you back the other up. Has nothing to do with being blind and Mike and I have discussed his logging on under me. He does not mess with anyone else's post, just Linda, and only when she is out of control and bashing me (while I am not online). Everyone has a problem with Linda, it is not just Mike. She has already been banned from this board at least once (and has been accused of being a male gimmick).

I hereby promise...no more logging in as Laura

Judi,
You're awful polite. :)
I skip the show but do believe Mike and Laura are nice people. Can't for the life of me figure out why they need so much attention but that doesn't make them bad people, just repetitve.
That being said, the Women's area has been kind of dumbed down in an attempt to impose some semblance of politeness. It's not a free speech issue, more that a certain amount of censorship prevents any meaningful, open discussion. So.... trying to have the women's area be a safe haven for those with fragile egos has resulted in lame crap like "best tampon?". I'd bet most of the women here are smart enough to pick out tampons without on-line assistance.
There are a gajillion forums here so in reality it's not that big of a deal. Just kind of a waste that a women's area is generally devoid of any serious conversation/topics or even women's felings on social, sexual, etc... matters. It's pretty dissappointing.
And Judee, :)
Everyone working on their body isn't putting up pics at a alarming rate. Most of us appreciate how much work it takes to make lifestyle and physical changes through diet and exercise.

kaje, Mike and I are nice people, and not in "need" of attention. We are enjoying ourselves here on the boards. And anyone who diets and works hard for their physique will show it off. An alarming rate would be us posting a picture at every pound gained or lost, we don't do that.

Can you honestly name any couple that has posted more pics? :) Besides... what's the value of showing off? My response to Judi was not to start a conflict, merely to agree that the perception is likely shared by more people than she realizes. GetBig already has a "pictures of members" section.... does this really need to be a "Pics and stories and daily updates about Mike and Laura as they face life's challenges with dedication, desire and devotion" section?
The new haircut thread really was the last straw for me, LOL! All things being equal, there's really no harm in being so proud of yourself. Just don't take offense when others can't figure out why. :). You knew that was coming, LOL!
I actually don't really read the show threads anymore so post as many pics as possible.
That tampon thread has changed people's lives! >:(
I have no reason to doubt you, LOL! I'm gonna go read that thread right now... that way if the topic ever comes up I'll look smart.

I hated playtex, find it an inferior product which, as xxxlinda said, lengthens rather than thickens so is pretty much useless. I thought of taking to the streets to protest their awful product but frankly, in the grand scheme of things, seemed a little petty next to something like global warming.
So STella, I took your advice months ago, to try ob again... and it wasn't an easy transition ;), but finally got the hang of it, and am much happier as a result. Am saving time and money too. So, yes, I think this was a great thread. And thanks for tip STella!!! :-*

Mike posted my change in "hair color" because there were some here (Stella & Rip) that requested to see it. And just like it was told to Linda...If you don't like the topics here...there are other boards to go to. No one is forcing anyone to view these topics or post in these topics. It's a girls discussion board and anything regarding or pertaining to women is welcome to be posted here...whether it be hair color or tampons. :)

I'm gonna read the tampon thread after Family Guy!!!

XXXLinda has a valid point - when I first read you and Mike's threads about each other I was turned off....now it's a different story...To suggest XXXLinda is a man etc...you are just mad and reacted with anger....

I like Laura and Mike. They are great posters. :)

You're still clearly not getting it Laura!
Ever met one of those new parents who bring their kid over to your house, and they decide to change the baby's diaper's without laying out the proper protection? Then baby has diarhhea, or if a baby boy, turns into a human fountain, and the parent says "Oh look, jr. has his first bout of diarhhea! How adorable! What a special moment! Someone get the camera." ::) Then to top it off, they ask jr to pee all over the carpet again 'cause they missed it the first time. Ya reeal special all over your white carpets NOT! >:(
YOU are like that parent Laura!
Just because YOU are in love with Mikey, doesn't mean the rest of us are too.
Has nothing to do with being blind
When it comes to Mikey you're blinder than Stevie Wonder & Ray Charles put together! {LOL}
We've all been there, ...making excuses, and dismissing things in our loved ones that we'd object to from others. Not all of us jump right in, condone it, or worse, actively encourage it simply because we love them, and therefore feel the need to "back them up" tho (thankfully). Seriously Laura, would you support Mikey if he decided to get drunk and go on a joyride (to be supportive and back him up?) ::)
and Mike and I have discussed his logging on under me. He does not mess with anyone else's post, just Linda, and only when she is out of control and bashing me (while I am not online).
You say that as if it's OK! It's not! He shouldn't be messing with anyone's posts PERIOD! ...and especially not Linda's given the history between them. He's not a mod. If he has a problem with something Linda has written about you, he should be addressing Linda in PM and/or reporting it to a mod or directly to Ron. He should be following the same advice you so freely give to others. The SO of a mod shouldn't be given a free pass. Tough break for him being the SO of a mod, ...it's like being the preacher's kid. If he can't hold himself to a higher standard, perhaps he can at least hold himself to the board standards so as not to compromise you. The more your bias shows itself, the more it compromises the level of respect you enjoy as a mod whether people state it or not. Doing his best not to compromise you is what I would consider "backing up someone you love" Wouldn't you agree?
He is not a mod of this woman's board. And quite frankly IMO, the last thing YOU should be doing as a MOD of the woman's board is actively discouraging a woman from posting here, or the passive condoning of such by other men on the woman's board
Everyone has a problem with Linda, it is not just Mike. She has already been banned from this board at least once (and has been accused of being a male gimmick).
That's irrelevant. The entire world could hate her, ...it doesn't give Mikey the right to log on as a mod and mess with her post. There have been those who have done far worse than Linda and have not been banned, so her being previously banned from this board is completely irrelevant as far as I'm concerned. Given my recent knowledge and experience with the whimsical way in which bans are handed out in this place, ...it means even less as far as I'm concerned. I am well aware she has been accused of being a male gimmick, and I freely admit to having that same impression for quite some time after she first came here. It's all irrelevant. It still doesn't excuse mikey's behaviour or your negligence concerning your mod access.
I'm not going to go into this any further. It's plain for those who have eyes and want to see. Those who are blind or choose to remain blind, will continue to do so, so I'm not going to ruin a perfectly good manicure over this.
ps: Don't take this post to mean I don't like you two, I do.
I'm just a little more objective where you guys are concerned

After that "just repetitive" comment, I'm about ready to hand you my politeness trophy! You've earned it!

Ahhh, ...this is where ignorance rears it's head.
It's not your fault tho, ...you're just biologically & anatomically challenged.
The choice of a proper tampon is of utmost importance, and performance wise OB blows tampax out of the water!
Everyone working on their body isn't putting up pics at a alarming rate.
Shush, I was trying to put a polite spin on their "repetitiveness". Didn't you see the strategically placed winky?

Hi Deedee! Welcome Back!
OB's are the best aren't they? I discovered those when I was 14. My best friend turned me on to them one day after gym class when the I got a surprise and the darned vending machine in the locker room was empty. Thank Goodness gym class was just before lunch period because it took me close to 20 minutes just to insert the darn thing. Now I can do it in my sleep. Before that I was using Playtex which were a small step up from the one we all start out with. How on earth Tampax can survive as a company is beyond me. I find them to be the absolute worst tampon on the market. I guess having first mover advantage went a long way, ...that and getting the contracts to supply school vending machines. I guess they keep their market simply because of habit. I'm glad my best friend encouraged me to try them back then. I haven't looked back since. My only complaint with them tho is a while back they relabeled all their absorbency rates without letting us know, so all of a sudden the SUPER absorbency ended up being only equivalent to the previous REGULAR absorbency.
-
"Just repetitive?" "Just repetitive?" ...and you call ME polite?! ;D
After that "just repetitive" comment, I'm about ready to hand you my politeness trophy! You've earned it!
Been attempting to improve my diplomacy.
I do find the baby analogy fitting. We all love it when people bring new baby pics to work daily and insist on telling the age in months until the brat is 5.
That being said... Laura's denial is kind of endearing. Especially considering no one has really disagreed with the assessment besides them. :)
I actually considered not posting on Linda's thread. Not simply because agreeing with her is distasteful but also due to the fact that discussions like this give the couple even more attention. Some people suck up attention more effectively than OB tampons do their job. See! I do understand!! :)

I thought Faust's advice was kind of cool.
I think this borders more on Greek Mythology. The Pool of water has been updated to a computer monitor.
I wonder what a digital flower would look like?

Well it obviously comes down to one's opinion and taste. You both talk about Mike and I and the need for attention and yet Judi spent 80% of her posting time to soliciting her businesses and drkaje your posts are 90% indifferent or argumentative to what ever the thread pertains to or to those posting. Only difference is that I personally don't care, they are entitled, and if I don't want to deal with such postings I don't read them ... I don't bash them.

And now instead of merely deny, DENY, DENY!, ...it's now lash out at all detractors?
Come on Laura, open your eyes, ...or do we have to keep them pried open with toothpicks. {LOL}
btw - I beg to differ with you on your numbers.
pssst: That's what online businesses do online, ...they solicit business. ;)
ps: speaking of which, I think I should attend to it, ...Lord knows I've goofed off enough in the past 2 months,
...but despite that, the checks still keep comin. Funny how that residual income works huh? {Sigh} Yes, ...it's nice. :)

I solved the problem by ignoring most, if not all, threads you two start.
The point is that in some twisted way Linda is right, otherwise someone else would have disagreed with her. I digress, basically the forum has gotten a little silly so I rarely post of even look anymore. Like you are always in a hurry to say: "there are other forums on GetBig". I really can't appreciate the reasaon you'd take a simple observtion so personally and regret giving you two even more attention by responding honestly to Linda's post.
90%.... well I'd say more 80ish. Argumentative.... I'd say challenging. Sometimes cutting through the BS requires asking uncomfortable questions and we still haven't gotten a reasonable answer as to why you two need soooo much attention. We probably will never get an answer but it's 94% certain I'm not the only one here that has ever wondered. But it's 100% certain the observation is true, otherwise you woldn't react in this manner.
P.S. 94% was an arbitrary number, I haven't done a poll. :)
For example... why were my earlier posts deleted? Was there any profanity, direct insults, threats, or attempts at selling playtex products?

Don't know. I didn't touch them.

And now instead of merely deny, DENY, DENY!, ...it's now lash out at all detractors?
Come on Laura, open your eyes, ...or do we have to keep them pried open with toothpicks. {LOL}
btw - I beg to differ with you on your numbers.
pssst: That's what online businesses do online, ...they solicit business. ;)
ps: speaking of which, I think I should attend to it, ...Lord knows I've goofed off enough in the past 2 months,
...but despite that, the checks still keep comin. Funny how that residual income works huh? {Sigh} Yes, ...it's nice. :)
I have an idea.....
Maybe you and Laura should settle this grudge in a good old fashion mud wrestling match. Ripitupbabe can be the special guest referee and LH and I will sit and observe :) :) :) ;D

They could have deleted themselves.
There was one of Mike's saying "I need attention" and a reply saying "was that so hard?" with a smiley face.

hahaha I'm game! :D
And in the end I have to bath you all and get you cleaned up ;D

I didn't delete that (the one i posted saying "i need attention")
my stuff get's deleted all the time..............who cares?
(grow up people)............it's the womans board they run it how they feel it should be run

Been attempting to improve my diplomacy.
I do find the baby analogy fitting. We all love it when people bring new baby pics to work daily and insist on telling the age in months until the brat is 5.
That being said... Laura's denial is kind of endearing. Especially considering no one has really disagreed with the assessment besides them. :)
I actually considered not posting on Linda's thread. Not simply because agreeing with her is distasteful but also due to the fact that discussions like this give the couple even more attention. Some people suck up attention more effectively than OB tampons do their job. See! I do understand!! :)
Incorrectly placed quotation marks fixed.
I get enough grief for my own posts on here, ...I'm not taking any for yours jake. :-*

Mud? Ewwww. How about Chocolate Pudding! :D
A wrestling match with you?! :o
Sha right! ::) I've seen your guns. You'd kick my tush in a heartbeat!
How about I concede the victory in the wrestling match to you now...
...and we skip the match, and just sit back and eat all the chocolate pudding? ;D

oh no, ...it's a beautiful, delicate green earth, known as Mother Nature, ...one whose future is in our hands.
...one we have to protect, nurture, and bring back into balance, the way she was meant to be.
Wanna know how we can do that? :D

You do fit in pretty well. :)
Feeding the, proverbial, monster wasn't the intention. So I do kind of regret pointing out the obvious but if we can't learn from mistakes and grow.. life would be pretty boring. At least I got to learn how great OB are compared to regular tampons so the exchange isn't a total loss. Never know when that kind of knowledge may come in handy.

You've officially ceded the right to call me anal....... ever again. :)
Only an...., oh you know the rest.

Can't we all get along?!?!?!?!..............

You probably crossed the border a while back.

I'll play nice but don't expect me to share any toys. :)

Shhhh... that was supposed to be our little secret.

It was me who deleted the "I need attention" post. I thought at least SOMEONE ;) would see the subtle humor in it. And of course Michael wouldn't be in the least bothered by it since he uses Laura's account to delete other people and mess with their posts, including mine. I took it with humor. Don't have a clue what would have happened to yours.
As far as the rest goes, it's just better not to click on, or read, threads you aren't interested in. I'm sure no one was particularly interested in Juni and my, afternoon horses 'n poetry threads, but they entertained us immensely. :D I understand your posts about the board being dumbed down, but there really aren't many women who frequent Getbig, for obvious reasons, so many of those social issues discussions we tried did end up just being angry venting venues, with women ending up having to defend themselves. That's no fun. I guess Div's "I am God of the white-skinned, fluffy-mounded hareem" didn't help either. ;D He could def have participated in a different, more palatable way.
IN GENERAL TO ALL: I loved posting here last year, but haven't really been back since the early summer. I asked Ron to demod me, in all fairness, but he's slow. :-\ I thought when my account became a little community account it would speed things along, but so far... here I am. :P
In reading over the posts of late, seems some women want a change on the board... feel free to pm STella, and let her know if you'd like to mod on the girl board.

lol!..............i got the humor in it dee
like i said i promise NEVER to "go under" Lauras account again

It's pale, furry women. :)

oh wow, we've got an exciting and funny woman's place again ...Yahoo
fantastic to see Judi and even Deedee too !!
WHOOOOOOOOOPEEEE and hallialujah.
I'm amazed that I brought up a topic which went to 3 pages and 303 views (I went away for a few days...
I was simply upset with the dumbing down of our girly place.
Or more importantly, the absence of the people who matter and make this girly forum what it is. STella has been doing a brilliant job all on her own.
ALL of your opinions are so very valid and prove my concerns. STella, Deedee and Jag and ~flower~ (& Ripitup and Original Sin and MyDavid and Princess L and BuffGodess and all the rest (even Medford and Laura if they are women (joke, ok?)), make this Women's Area what it is.
I just thought it was becoming incredibly lame and somewhat sad here.
And I don't have time (or the inclination) to read very many other boards, I thought this was the one I belonged on and would contribute to.
>>The tampon thread is important to women whereas others are not...
I read everything on the girly board and LL (as a mod), certainly must do too, so that's another prefabricational fib you've made, darlin', you're paid to read this rubbish so we know you do. Or at least you'd better...
why aren't ~flower~ and Judi mods on this girly place?
why has Dina never ever said a word?
I was thinking of starting a thread about masturbation (female only). Bet we could do 10+ pages on that...

There was a previous thread all about "Masturbation & The Single Woman" ...but it got axed very quickly. {lol} :-X
