Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

Does this involve two girls and a cup?

Let's be honest. You wanted to know if the knickers were see through.

You disgust me.

Looks like he tried to post pics from Google mail. Ken's like that, you have to watch him every minute.

I saw the pics in an email from Ken. Just Google "fake see-thru skirts" and you'll find the missing pics.

EDIT: Suzanne beat me to it. Darn kids. Always making us older folks look bad. :rolleyes:

Probably because you have access to your Gmail account and we don't, is my guess. Try logging out of Gmail and then open this page in another browser (so you're not seeing a cached page) and see if you can still see the images. I'll bet not.

I FOUND OUT WHY!!!!!!!!!!!

The "picture"'s URL is:

http s:/ /m ail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=3dbb77ca80&view=att&th=143b033ade1cf6ce&a ttid=0.1.1&disp=emb&zw&atsh=1

URL MUNGED to show.

It would be MORONIC for GOOGLE to allow this, and they would have a publicity nightmare! So WHY can YOU see them? Because they point to YOUR email, and YOU are logged into YOUR EMAIL.

The way it works is the VISITOR clicks on the URL. The VISITORS browser uses the url to do to the main url specified, which here is YOUR PRIVATE EMAIL account, and uses the returned info to display what should be displayed. HERE, that info is:

Gmail by Google

Temporary Error (404)

We're sorry, but your Gmail account is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience and suggest trying again in a few minutes. You can view the Apps Status Dashboard for the current status of the service.

If the issue persists, please visit the Gmail Help Center »

And the routine to display the picture simply doesn't know how to handle it.

Steve

Thanks

My God! It took me awhile to "get" that these were fake see through.

Young kids today, what with their TVs and horseless carriages.

I would have a very ugly wife.

BTW I think the idea of trying to fit social norms, and be modest while displaying something to make you appear essentially NUDE is just DUMB. You have to wonder what is going through those people's minds.

You know those cases where they paint a woman's body such that she is totally nude, but appears to be dressed? I guess they will eventually paint them so they appear nude, though one could argue that they ARE! It makes about as much sense.

It used to be that we'd just exercise for a nice looking, well shaped hiney. Now they just paint them on when their own is not up to quality standard? Go figure. Maybe I should quit climbing for muscle tone and start painting?

Yeah, even if they could REALLY make the lower rear thinner, doing just that likely would look odd at best.

What? Can you get that idea across in English? You can do a lot of sculpting on your figure - you can't narrow the bone structure, but a lot of what is wrong with women's butts have nothing to do with bone structure. It has everything to do with either not knowing how, or being to lazy, to do the work involved.

Well, it was about a guy that wanted to go out with any and every woman on the planet. Only ONE thing mattered! They had to look PRETTY to him. So everyone called him SHALLOW. And his name was hal. SO, shallow hal.

Tony robbins supposedly hypnotized him into considering ANYONE that didn't seem evil to be PRETTY. Since Hal considered thinner people to be prettier, they tended to be thinner.

HEY, she broke a chair in a soda shop(IIRC), and he complained. It's possible! Some chairs are just RICKETY. Some people dive fast and hard enough to make a big splash. The underwear COULD have been a joke. That boat one is hard to understand. I mean she was heavy enough to lift him up, etc...., but too light to sink it?

But that is how hypnosis supposedly can work.

And he met a lot of people that he THOUGHT were beautiful and LIKED him, and his life improved. When his "friend" tricked him into losing the rose colored glasses, and he saw REALITY, he wanted to start seeing the image again instead.

Steve

Thanks

I was speaking IN CONTEXT! If they even made *****JUST***** the lower rear smaller, it would look ODD. The idea is how much weirder would a painted on one be.

Of course, if a woman WORKED at reducing that part the CONVENTIONAL way, OTHER parts would get smaller, the figure would show more, and she would certainly look BETTER.

Well, rapes should go up! :rolleyes:

They should give a warning, that you need to take self defense classes first. And carry a semi - automatic!

They should make a hot woman dress for overweight women?

In context wasn't the problem. Now I understand what you were saying. And you're right -- but (or should I say butt?) that's not something that's going to go through your mind right away when you see something like that at first.

I hope you're a more talented painter than the one who designed the ones above. They look a little saggy and flabby to me, not nice looking. They're certainly not well muscled, rounded ones like you get from running, dancing, playing basketball and doing gymnastics. You know, the ones that are referred to as bubble butt or ghetto bootie.

Just keeping it real is all. :p

Time for me to release my line of young men's underwear that ride high and have back pockets to compensate for the pants they wear on the ground. Maybe save production costs and just have images of pockets.
