Rethinking my idea for a tattoo. I was going to do a Turtle shell on one shoulder & Touche' turtle on the other, but I thought I would look like a damn fool if both arms were cartoonish tattoos. So now, I'm considering having a scary *kitten* turtle breathing flames would be cooler instead. Every time I try to draw something though, it comes out looking like a stupid fat green stick figure guy instead.
These *kitten* crayons must be broken or something. They don't have any *kitten* Crayola magic in them anymore...0 -

Curious, what is the significance of a turtle to you? Favourite animal?

Oh, Yay! Story time with Turtle!
Yes, partly. I've always like turtles. I used to make my parents stop the car so I could save tortoises that were crossing the road. I would take them back to the house & release them on our farm. I used to catch little ones from the pond to keep as pets for the winter then let them go the next spring. Although no one really called me Turtle until I used it online as an anonymous chatroom handle in the late 90's.
My 3 adopted sisters were little when I left for college & the night I drove off they gave me this beanie baby turtle as a going away present while crying their eyes out. They used to fight over who got to play with it because there was only one of them & I have no idea where they got it, but it was one of their favorite toys & they named it Elijah. It used to have a red scarf & sailor hat on it but my own children played with it & they disappeared. Back to the story, I used to carry it in my pocket most the time while walking around campus for most of my first semester because it reminded me to call home.
When chatrooms became a huge thing back then, I used various combinations of words including Turtle as my chat handles. It was too much to type in fast rooms & so most people just started using Turtle. When I discovered there was a local VW scene, I just used Turtle as my handle on the forum & it's been my VW gang name since then. There are people I've known in the VW scene for years that have no idea what my "real" name is. If I'm at a VW gathering, meeting or car show or something & I hear someone holler Turtle, I answer to it as readily as I do my own name. I even introduce myself to new people in that realm as Turtle. I have people that come up to me that I've never met that other guys in my group have sent to me looking for "Turtle". It's a pretty easy identifier for them to grasp when they go looking for a big dude going by the name Turtle. LOL
It's a nickname that I've come to embrace as much as my own and it's mostly due to a silly beanie toy that was a cherished gift. I still have it 21 years later & don't ever plan on getting rid of it.

@FireTurtle75, we have a rescued red-eared slider in our backyard. My husband brought him home from a run (his brothers and sisters had been squished) and me and the kids built him a habitat. He's completely adorable and his name is Leonardo. Because it became clear early on that he's kind of a ninja.3

My neighbor told me, "You should let Mr.SoAndSo mow your yard. You don't need to be on that mower. It's dangerous and you could get hurt."
I told him you don't have to have a dick to operate a lawn mower.9 -

Oh, but I think you do. There's a secret penis-operated steering system that they don't tell us wimmen about.4 -

I had a similar experience with a used car salesman. I was interested in an older Jeep Grand Cherokee and asked him to test drive it. He said "oh you won't like that car". I asked if there was anything mechanically wrong with it and what was the reason I wouldn't like it? He said, "it's a standard transmission". So I said, "Oh, so since I don't have a dick, I don't know how or would not like to drive a stick?" He turned beet red and told me he'd grab the keys for me. I told him never mind, I was going to go elsewhere to buy my vehicle!5 -

How annoying all of the "would you date the person above" "rate the person above" "mfp pickup lines" threads that are on here. It's like a flippin meat market instead of a fitness site.1

Meh. Just stick to the other 12 forums dedicated to fitness threads. Chit chat and fun and games are just that. Boredom breakers. Can't talk about fitness 100% of the time, how boring would that be?2 -

Is all sweat created equal, or is the sweat from some body parts grosser than others?
I wouldn't think of re-wearing, say, a really sweaty workout shirt or pair of socks. But my hand wraps are literally SOAKED with sweat, and I typically hang them to dry and re-wear them 3 or 4 times before washing. Is that gross? Maybe that's gross. But washing my hand wraps is a giant PITA.0 -
