V&F! You...you can be so polite! I'm...shocked!

I do agree with the visitor message notification bit. It took mr dave 3 months 2 weeks and 3 days to reply to my visitor message that I sent. I was testing how often he checks his visitor messages, since he is notoriously tardy. A little notification at the top might help the boy.

Hot pink would definitely NOT be a wise choice for the MB skin. I did a little research and found out that the color would be neither healthy nor safe!

It turns out that people who view hot pink for an average of 30 minutes per day after several weeks have around a 23% reduction in their IQs (using the standard IQ test). Luckily the effect was reversible, but still, who wants to be dummed down? Even worse, the hot pink viewers were 10% more likely to experience irritability and commit a violent crime than viewers shown other colors. I might even suspect that you yourself, right-track, may have unfortunately painted several walls in your home a scalding hot pink color, not knowing of its detrimental effect!

As for the social impact of hot pink, I'd say the demeaning aspect toward women is fairly well balanced by the uplifting benefit of hot pink representing gay pride. So, the negatives and positives even out.

Here, you can test this phenomenon yourself. Do the positives of the gay pride triangle and the negatives of a tight hot pink shirt and shades cancel each other out in this picture?



Yes. Yes I think they do. All I see is a pleasant, smiling young woman with perky nipples. I'm hardly aware of the color she is wearing at all!

I do think she is wearing a bra, though. BONDAGE!!!
