hootie mcboobs

i ended up in a conversation yesterday with SheBroughtMeCookies about the necessity of bras that make one a little more... boobalicious. neither of us wear the darn things to actually enhance our assets, but rather to over our.. um.. overzealous headlights, shall we say? i never thought much about my nipples for the first several years they sprouted off my ribcage - i mean come on, everyone knew i had them, what was the big deal? - until i started working in a bar in college.

one night, this guy came into the bar and ordered a pitcher of beer. as i was pouring it, he stared at me. as he paid, he kept staring at me. as i got him cups, he kept staring at me. finally, he goes, "can i ask you a sort of personal question?"

note: it's probably always better to say "no" at this point. and yet i never do.


me: um, ok.

dude: are both your nipples pierced?

me: WHAT!? no!!? ......uh, why?

dude: well, i'd heard that when girls get their nipples pierced, sometimes it makes their nipples hard, like, for life, and i figured that's what happened to you.

me: OH MY GOD, I NEED NEW BRAS.

  11. Just a side note on the 'enhancement' bras. When we (guys) get you out of it and there isn't half what it looked like, we are going to be disappointed. If we knew from the get go we wern't finding C's, then it's a lot better mentally. Just thought I'd share that with the ladies.

  12. Eww, not sure I like the extra effort to leave a comment. Because of spammers, lazy bloggers like myself can't comment as easily.

    Anyways, I wasted all my energy typing the above, so now that'll have to do.

    lol, no just kidding. But as a older and wiser girl, I beg you to listen (well read actually) this advice. And pretty much follow your instincts....when a guy asks a question like "can I ask you any kinda question"....proceed with care.

  13. Yeah, complain about your headlights. Big deal. Pop a woody during your confirmation, then come complain to me about your nipples.

  14. ROFLMAO! Yes you might indeed need some new bras!

    That last line was too funny.

  15. Well, after you stole my assistants by allowing them to oggle your boobies, I think new bras are a must...

  16. Alice, you're a HOOT! Or a hootie. I would agree about never answering a guy's question when it begins with "can I ask you a personal question?" The last time I answered that was when a guy who "winked" at me on the dating website wanted me to send him my hip measurements because he doesn't like girls with big hips. I'm sure I've mentioned him before. Ass.

  21. Have you ever had a short in the electrical wiring, where only one headlight was "on" and the other wasn't?

  23. walter - HA! i saw that on postsecret the other day :-) and yes, they TOTALLY go on one at a time sometimes!

    everyone - yes, i know, NEVER say yes when people ask questions like that! ...but i get so curious about what they were going to ask, i always relent and let them just to satisfy my own curiousity :-)

  25. Hey dont feel bad girlie, as an Asian girl, i have femme-bot type nipples and i hated hated wearing any sort of slinky top until i saw that one episode of sex and the city when samantha had those fake nipples that she stuck on herself since nipples were "in". That and my boyfriend (ex boyfriend now)always assured me it was a cool thing and when i think about it, i remember seeing mannequins in store windows wearing shirts with enhanced nipples. Sometimes, bras dont do it for a gal like me...i can never go bra-less in the summer! Kisses from Paris (well i am actually back in NJ now!)
