I propose an all-new adult section on PF. Only those who can prove they know how to tie their shoelaces are granted access.

I wear slippers and sandals most of the time even when I go to work, so no shoelaces. Only once in a blue moon particularly when my boss is around will I put on a pair of sport shoes I buy somewhere at only around $4.5. Look I am a hypocrite. :DD

I found a Windsor knot a better test any way.

Explain please, I can't read your mind. :nb)
 
A Windsor knot is a devilish knot to tie only experts use it.

After many travels to Japan and Korea, where people commonly take off and put on their shoes several times each day -- often with a line (queue) of people standing behind, waiting -- I've switched to loafers. I haven't tied shoelaces in years.

A Windsor knot I can do in my sleep. But on shoes ?! :eek:

This is one of the reasons I'm glad that I'm not a man :) But I like wearing scarves. And there are days when I'd like to wear a headscarf because I like them when they are colourful and stylishly tied. But I guess that would cause very serious problems in my community...:nb)

Where do you buy shoes for $4.5?

I thought I did not have much of a life, but I don't have a site on shoelace knots.

Head scarf's are way out of fashion in the UK, you could wear a fedora that would make you look very mysterious.

Here is a thought, the saying a mans home is his castle is no longer true, due to equality and mans inability to get a word in edge ways, it should be a woman's home is her castle.
 
Indeed that should be the case! And while a man is the head of the household, a woman is the neck that turns the head as she wishes :p

Can't be. Studies of our migration over the globe show that women are far more migrating than men. Would be rather inconvenient with a whole castle in their backpacks.

As long as the woman does the dishes the washing the vacuuming and the decorating she can turn my head any time:biggrin:

I wondered where all the women have gone.
 
Funny. As I've thought about castles ... Our continent is the only one where you can find castles and palaces every few kilometres from Scotland to Sicily from Portugal to Austria. Never viewed it this way.

Chrome just disappeared from my task bar. Still installed, but the icon is just not there anymore.

You do seem to have a thing for Manga. I am not much into fashion myself.
I'm not into fashion either.

SW, now you have admitted something! HOW do YOU know what nicknames people use on porn sites? :D :DD :wink:
Hahahahaha! I swear this line would have never occurred to me. :oldlaugh:
Sophia said:
To be honest, my first thought was about PedoBear :D You're right, we could be sisters :)
Oh include me in: "I'm a lady... Now we are brother ladies!"

I think if you can click "Pin to taskbar" somewhere in the start screen.

It would be something like saying there are regions of space-time with no space.
Oh I swear I've been to such places ...
