“ ...if this is on your profile, we will not contact you”

We do not agree at all. There are lots of reasons to avoid contact, this stupid disclaimer is not one of those reasons for us.

Having the disclaimer is merely being misinformed, or at worst it’s just stupid. If nobody contacted us because we are stupid we’d never meet anyone. A little tolerance is called for in this instance.

could not agree more. While some might think it is petty or a preference with no substance, it is our preference. Any disclaimer written in the profile will NOT stand up in court PLUS, highly doubt anyone on this site would spend the money, time, and overtness of such a ludicrous action. A good lawyer would laugh at you in the office. A bad lawyer would take your money and laugh behind closed doors.

I'm going to bring this one up again because I am seeing it in a lot of profiles.

Please, Please, Please stop putting the Sydney University warning on your profiles. It has no force of law.

The internet is a public place, and any information you put here is public.

Even if it weren't, how are you going to sue someone for using your anonymized information on here. There are no names, no addresses, not really any identifiable information on here.

Please stop.

As a matter of fact, we don't care how hot you are, or how much we have in common, if this is on your profile, we will not contact you...

Couples that you chat up, all seems well, everybody on the same page. Then they are all 100%, by their rules, non negotiable and totally dismissive of you and your spouses rules and ideas.

PP. when you read a profile and they say this is their first time and they are new to the LS. Then you notice they have been a member on SLS since 2011.... come on, UPDATE YOUR PROFILE!!!!

Why does SLS alway remove photos of me wearing a lacy bra when they allow women to show their breast topless...

Dickhead trolls clogging up the fora.

The site rolls out unnecessarily, unwanted, bullshit features....

But won't allow you to block someone without going to their page?

No warnings to suspend trolls?

njny - While we didn't have to wait to get into the grocery store, pretty much nobody was observing social distancing. Since we bring our own bags, we bag things ourself. In a way it can be better because we can sort by perishable and non-perishable and the later can stay in the car for a day or 2 so there is less stuff to wipe down.

BTW - The wiped down fresh cart was nice. We didn't get that where we shop. There was someone wiping things down as you entered the store though.

Next time going thru drive thru make sure you have a couple buttons on your blouse undone and a sexy red or black lacy pushup bra, for sure will not send you away....I love going thru the drive thru in super short tight mini skirt and seatbelt across (inbetween) my DD's....

My PP is non swing related. Peoples driving habits make me insane! People are so rude to one another and/or are clueless and shouldn't be driving. Left lane is for passing, you have turn signals for a reason, speed limits have a purpose, I can go on but everybody gets the picture.

PP: If you must upload a screenshot of a pic instead of just uploading the pic itself, at least have the decency to crop it first. There's nothing sexy about a low battery warning or the signal strength of your wifi.

I avoid the political forums like the plague but I found this to be a generally civil and enlightening conversation. If this were brought up in the political forum, it would have long ago devolved into name calling, baiting and personal insults.

Kudos to all.

PP. rabbit and I have both been fighting off bad colds and losing. We will be spending Thanksgiving coughing, sneezing, aching and being generally miserable but we will at least be together.

Maybe should have posted this is HT BF thread

@njny - I agree. A PP is that this kind of stuff makes it's way into other threads, but I'm not one to always stay on topic either so just as much to blame in this case.

I come here basically for fun and this is not fun. It's why I now avoid the Politics thread. Might I suggest picking this up somewhere in the Politics thread ;-)

"A group of indigenous people who have seen the vast majority of their people killed off and their culture nearly eradicated by white European colonizers don't take kindly to white people moving in on what little turf they still posses and setting up shop for themselves? I'm shocked."

The fallacy with that statement is that you assume that the indigenous people that were here were harmonious. They were not. There was a reason why some Indian tribes teamed up with the US Calvary. They wanted help in defeating the other indigenous people.

"White people on this continent have been giving people of color and other minorities plenty of reasons to hate them for over 400 years. "

Yes, some have, but not all. Lumping all whites into this same bucket is a great way to continue the cycle of hate on both sides.

"Just saying you don't have to go out of what is consider to be the US to experience this."

Of course you don't. White people on this continent have been giving people of color and other minorities plenty of reasons to hate them for over 400 years. Why the hell would I feel the need to travel abroad to find a group of people who have been shit on by whites when there's no shortage of (rightfully) angry and distrusting minority groups right here in my own back yard?
