(a semi-truck screeches to a halt at a red light a few feet from where I'm walking)
Truck driver: *whistle* Hey mommieeeeee! *sucking noise*
Me: (glance toward the driver, glare, turn away)
TD: Awwww Mommie, you don't gotta be like that...
Me: (sharp turn around, hands on hips) I'm curious, does that ever work?
TD: What?
Me: Honestly, I really want to know, does it ever work?... the whistling, the yelling, SUCKING your teeth...
TD: ...wha d'ya mean?
Me: (voice raising)...of the THOUSANDS of women you randomly insult and degrade everyday, has a single one of them EVER asked for your phone number,
or asked you out, or begged you to fuck them right there on the sidewalk!!??
TD: No...
Me: So why...
TD: ...but a chick in Jersey flashed me her tits once.
Me: (genuinely surprised, long pause)
No shit?
TD: (smiles) Yep. (light turns green, he pulls away)
Me: (shrugs) humph.

The other night I got: Ay, mami- Can I smell your panties?
To be honest, it just made me giggle.
Posted by: zeebah at April 2, 2003 03:28 PMI find it interesting that these guys seem to routinely employ maternal epithets ('mama', 'mommy') when composing their catcalls.
Isn't that a sentiment best reserved for the analyst's couch?
And what if the guy standing next to them said "Yeah, I'd like to fuck your mother too!"
I had a Latino friend of mine once explain the "mommy" phenomonon as originally being a term of appreciation and reverence, as in Mother of Life, Mother Earth, Mother of Our (collective) Children, etc. With all due respect to my pal, I think he may have been full of shit.
I mean, I don't think that guy was thinking "mother earth" when he asked to sniff Zeebah's panties. And if he was then like...eeew.
Posted by: Kd at April 2, 2003 06:48 PMHe asked to sniff your panties... ahh how classy.
I can see it now: 'Used Panty' by Calvin Klein - the epicurean's choice.
Posted by: Siggy at April 3, 2003 02:11 AMWell, it's not by Calvin, but yes, Virginia (or did I mean vagina?) it already exists.
Posted by: Kd at April 3, 2003 10:28 AMWow... oh mah gawd... You've got to be kidding me. Next to the people selling Brass Balls, this has to be one of the most ridiculous internet business ventures ever. Actually I take that back, there is much worse out there, I can only imagine.
I really love this part:
"Many men risk disease by purchasing worn panties on the Net. Why would anyone pay $25 for a stranger's dirty underwear?
It's wonderful that the plights of the used panty trader has finally been recognized. We *cough* err... THEY have been taking these daring risks to obtain quality panty aroma for far too long!
