I can’t hear that term without thinking of the movie CLUE.I used “in flagrante” last night as well. Maybe the fever set in earlier than I realized.

Never seen it. Would you recommend that I do?I can’t hear that term without thinking of the movie CLUE.
And that’s always a good thing.
Definitely.Never seen it. Would you recommend that I do?

See, you can't even spell them right. You are so corrupted Em![]()
I didn't know that. I have seen them spelled like that before, but I thought those were some colloquialisms of the proper formal terms.Actually, Emily's "metre" is the standard spelling in most of the non-US English-speaking world.
"Kilogramme" is the original UK spelling (following the French) and still recognised, though since the early 20th century it's less common than "kilogram". These days it feels a bit old-fashioned but it's not wrong.

Will try to find it one one of my services.Definitely.
Tim Curry steals the film and is AMAZING in it. It’s possibly his finest performance, also the dialogue and word-play are an absolute treat, so much so I have nicked one bit for HOT AND FUZZY part 5 which will be visible in about 10 weeks time.
It’s a must for wordsmiths.
Yeah. What @Bramblethorn said. I was pushing it a bit with kilogramme, but no one outside of the US uses meter as a UOM. I went through the pain when doing a semester in the UK.Actually, Emily's "metre" is the standard spelling in most of the non-US English-speaking world. (For units, that is; a "meter" is something that measures gas, electricity, or parking time.)

It’s fun being an American studying in Europe.I didn't know that. I have seen them spelled like that before, but I thought those were some colloquialisms of the proper formal terms.
Sorry @EmilyMillerSub Those glasses of yours seem to be doing wonders![]()
I’ve used cunt a few times. Mostly as I had used pussy then vagina then pussy then vagina around thirty times. I’m not so fond of some of the other synonyms.Pudendum deserves more outings. And I'm rather fond of cunt - although I suspect that it is best coming from the mouths of upper-class British women. Americans tend not to use it at all well.
So self-referential.
Sounded better in Latin.…saw and conquered?
But it's even better when you reorder it to vidi, vici, veni.Sounded better in Latin.
I used “cunt” a couple of times in stories. Mostly as I felt I’d said pussy eight times and vagina six. I don’t like slit or snatch much.Street slang words like cunt, sissy, or nympho seem strange to me. I may have used "cunt" in one of my stories but it would have to be used in a woman being in the throes of tremendous sexual arousal.
What about gash or cleft or lips.I used “cunt” a couple of times in stories. Mostly as I felt I’d said pussy eight times and vagina six. I don’t like slit or snatch much.
But it always felt wrong. Have weeded most of them out, but noticed one the other day and didn’t have the energy to do an edited version just for that.
It would be nice if post publication editing was easier.

Gash and cleft all seem rather knife related. As if I need a suture.What about gash or cleft or lips.
NEVER beef curtains.
I'm excited and honored to meet you Em. Not only the subject of this thread, but to talk to another person that loves sex, and has the ability to write erotically. Exciting other people turns me on greatly. Slit or snatch I've not seen for some times - I agree with you on not caring for those terms. This is my first visit to the author's thread, and I'm glad to spend some time on this. Thanks for starting it, and sharing yourself on this site. I think your an extremely sexy girl for these reasons. Our mind's are our greatest sex organ in my opinion.I used “cunt” a couple of times in stories.
