It’s a sign of age when wool is more appealing than latex


Someone on twitter told me to check out this site, True Pleasures. It’s probably NSFW, and why would anyone think a homely old geezer like me would want to buy sex toys? But then I discovered that they do have something to appeal even to me: Tentacle Tuesday.

I honestly am not interested in wriggling strangely shaped tentacular objects into various orifices, but I do like the t-shirts. And look! They come in men’s and women’s styles!

Also, socks! You know you’re getting old when you find yourself getting excited about a nice warm pair of socks.

    So, PZ, you know what you’ll be getting for Monkey this year! About a zillion pairs of awesome tentacled socks…

    I was just about deafened just now, as the Horde all yelled simultaneously, all over the globe,

    WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANT!

    Or you live in the land of perpetual winter.

    Hell, sign me up for the old-timer’s newsletter. I’ve been asking for warm socks during various gift giving festivities for years now. I used to make the excuse that it’s because I worked outside in the slush and snow, but it’s really because I’m an old lady at ♥.

    I have those socks – and a cardigan that nearly matches them (although I don’t wear them together, I’m not 6 yrs old). I had no idea they were so kinky.

    I wear wool socks year round. Warm in winter, cool in summer, and I don’t have to pay for them*.

    Now if I could get some wool socks with tentacles . . .

    * I can get wool uniform socks and I get them because I once had an unfortunate episode at a wildfire. I was wearing plastic socks. And standing (without realizing it) on hot coals.

    Just the thing when my girlfriend and I role-play “Naughty Cthulhu Cultist and the randy Deep One.”

    Of course, I’ll need to actually find a girlfriend, first. ;)
