McLovin, need some clarification
Oct 15, 2018, 1:37 PM

Just re-read your HWYW post. I've read it 5 times now, making sure I understood what you were saying. Each time it reads as if both men and women were playing bunco together. Not women only getting together and getting drunk off wine while using a dice game as an excuse, while the men hung out at another house getting hammered and playing poker or watching football, but actually men and women playing bunco together.
Before I go any further, can you comfirm that I'm interpreting this correctly?

more than an excuse for otherwise prim and proper neighborhood women to get smashed once a month.
I've just never known it to be a coed event.

afternoon yesterday. Guy in front of me at the ramp yesterday had a bright red ~ 20' Crownline with captains choice exhaust, and a checkered flag ribbon accent the entire way down the side of the boat. You could just tell he knew he had himself a proper speed boat. I never once saw him trim the outdrive down, but that roaring exhaust and small rooster tail was mean AF.

calling out someone for doing something I don't like and them calling them a ##### is a my schtick.
I don't even like wine all that much, but thought the wine tour was pretty cool for being free. Plus I got to drink a fair bit of wine for free. Now, I don't know about you, but free alcohol is a good thing. In fact, it's down right anti-American to not like free booze.
I'm not going to sit around here and have you bad mouth the US of A. Come on........

New Hampshire. I noticed two things immediately: He liked to talk about how much money he had, and how cold and miserable it was there. It seemed like some sort of weird prison thing. Do 20 years living in the cold and snow, then when you're old, be comfortable down south for whatever time you have left.

I mean, I think I'm only probably a decade or so ahead of you, but in the aughts, that would be like saying all the guys and girls got together for a pampered chef party or something. Dudes just don't play bunco, or at least they didn't.

So there was a football game on the tv during the event. I cooked beer can chicken.
I agree, seems to be a very woman-like event. But guys talk football, hunting, home repair and women talk a lot.
