Correct? Yes

Safe? hardly ever...


The answer's obvious:  it's the timing and delivery of said answer that is crucial.  Say it too fast, and she'll know you're just trying to placate her; but say it too slow or hesitate and she'll think you're lying.  And for God's sake don't actually look at her and actually assess the situation!
I suppose saying "I like a woman with a big butt" is not advisable either?

Evasion can sometimes work - 'It looks very sexy/shapely/pert/positive adjective of your choice'. The danger is that she might ask you to elaborate or explain Ouch and that probably means a couple of nights kipping on the sofa.

No, although in my case it's the truth (up to a point; Jo Brand's certainly got plenty of cushioning but you can have too much of a good thing).
 
I think Spinal Tap summed it up rather nicely. Queen too.

Does my butt look big in this?

Boys, boys............ ALWAYS give a  truthful answer, if she asks the dreaded question (which if she has any sense she wont, cos boys are rubbish with this stuff)

A wife walked into the bedroom after having a bath and looked at herself in the mirror.  After a huge sigh she said to her husband "I look fat, old and my breasts are sagging, pay me a compliment please".  He replied after some thought and said "your eyesight is excellent love".Wink

Now my old wireless dongle on my desktop may well work though, as that is a Netgear wireless adapter (bought at the same time as the router).  If I plug that in via USB, will it override the internal wireless adapter or will I have to manually switch it off?
yes.


LOL brilliant answer, and the guy just walks of and says "Ok, I'll do that". Ever considered working at BCC, Dean?

How many times can you answer an 'will a or be happen?' with yes, before people get irritated? I'd love to try...

Will we see a bigger butt this year (and, come to that, can they be described properly as butts?).
 
1.5 million litres of cider would be about 1 weekend's worth for a Somerset village - provided it was a very small village, of course. Where's me copy of the Wurzels Greatest Hits?

^ if while growing up you had to endure long tedious hours of listening to Shag Connor & the Carrot Crunchers ('Gloucester's answer to Adge Culter & the Wurzels' - though I always hoped that Adge Culter & the Wurzels was a rhetorical question that required no answer) then you wouldn't joke so lightly Ouch

Incidentally - I'm now discovering the joys of pottering in the garden. Am I officially now middle aged, and if so, should I buy crimplene slacks?

In Beige?

With an elasticated waistband?
