Private Parts

A Conversation in Waco with Amy while watching football.

Amy: "Did you see that? That Ref just totally Picked his Privates."

Me: "We normally just call it scratching..."

Amy: "Wait, maybe he'll do it again, it's not scratching, he is picking at them." She held up her hand and starting re-enacting. I just shook my head with an, "oh no she didn't" look.

Unfortunately, due to the way God designed men's bodies, sometimes it is hard to scratch where it itches, and when it itches, it is not something that can be ignored. Once I tried to ignore it and I had to focus really hard and the left side of my face started to go numb from the concentration.

So ladies, whether we are scratching or picking, know that it is NECESSARY and sometimes we don't even realize that we are doing it.

oh, eddie. this is so true! except i didn't know it was the itching and scratching so much as it was the need to re-adjust everything so often.

what if women walked around plumping up and re-arranging our bras? hmmmm???

Jessica, I knew I could trust you to go there

Ok guys here is a fact, girls are very observant, and when there is motion or action in our field of vision we look at where the action or motion is.

I distinctly remember a guy at kamp who seemed to have some sort of "issue" with himself and it caused him to "do his thing" every 5 seconds, it happened so often the girls had to figure out a call sign for it, which of course was the sound of us clearing our throat. So whenever I would hear my friend clear her throat and he was in the room I knew what had just occured.

oh, my. boys. and they itching, and scratching, and rearranging, and general touching. in public.

in public!

and when the hand goes down in that general direction, WE ALL KNOW ABOUT IT. YOU CAN'T DO IT IN SECRET.

my suggestion: wear boxers. loose-fitting boxers. and thoroughly douse yourself in powder. and spray yourself with deet. and smear on the cortizone.

then you might have a TINY idea of what us girls have to go through everyday, with the putting on of the makeup and the fixing of the hair.

DEET - ahahahaha, just in case an army of insects decides to set up camp in their shorts?

11:20 AM  
jes said...

yes. and to ward away any insects that may be prone to biting, which generally causes itching, which results in scratching, which results in THE POINT OF EDDO'S POST TODAY.

My old Boss had that issue. Imagine a man working with 7 women, we all were about to die. Piece of advice to you men. Please do not do it while conversing with the opposite sex. You might get sued!

Deet! hahaha! That's hilarious.. and it's true, you go for the gold and our eyes are going to naturally follow until they are tragically deceived, and robbed of our innocence when we find out what is REALLY happening.

Bad? Really? Hmmm I thought I was just being informative. You asked for Cliff Notes, consider that lesson #1.

And hello, your comment was, well, personal.

Jes - Plumping up? I'm afraid to admit I don't know this phrase. Was that incorporated in your "Yvette" imiation the other night? In which case I know what it means.

talking about reajusting...

one time at camp - we put ice hot in people underpants.

12:46 PM  
jes said...

yes, JCol, you can imagine the "Yvette" and you will know what this means.

Yes, but why do guys in Miami do it every min.? Nowhere else do you see this like you do in this city!

jes said...

maybe because they are so sweaty, and the sweat is trickling down, and they are mistaking it for a bug crawling around down there.

so, whomp! they reach down to take care of it, and readjust for good measure, just to make sure no more bugs make their way in there.

just an idea.

Jes, that is exactly it, I ALWAYS think there is a bug in my pants! Sometimes they make me dance like I have ants in my pants and I end up doing the boogey dance...

I added a picture to my blog jacket and so I need to see if it shows up!

jes said...

that picture? that picture is of me and eddo, and i am pointing at the construction worker who is grabbing himself, and i'm laughing, and eddo is laughing too.

just in case anyone was wondering.

LOL, Msthang said our eyes are robbed of their innocence! lol Well I understand that guys have to do it sometimes but I must agree with the ladies- I don't find it appropriate for guys to just grab it and "adjust it" right in front of you....while your having a conversation! Ugh. LOL

And women NEVER adjust their bra's in public ...

maybe we adjust a falling strap to push it back under our shirts, but we don't grab our breasts and start rearranging.

or, at least I don't.
