Question

Anybody know what "no te puedo escribir soy estandar" means? I know part of it means "I cannot write to you I am to ??" I'm assuming it's get hitched or something like that, just wanted to know for sure. Thanks!

"no te puedo escribir soy estandar"
{estándar or estandarte}

Translation:
"I cannot write you ~ I am standard"

WTF??? Are you corresponding with a robot or what?

BTW- a genuine question can NEVER be stupid.

THANKS, that explains alot.

No no, she's actually pretty hot, kinda like a fembot in Austin Powers!
She's a standard member in a dating site so I guess she can't respond without having to pay more. that would explain why she put her hotmail account in the subject line.

I don't care if she is a robot, as long as she doesn't rust or hide machine guns in her bra! Hey, I guess I should do a thorough inspection...just to be safe that is... [img]smile.gif[/img]

If it smells like fish, make it dish.

Just don't eat anything that smells like metal.

John, Que te pasa???

If I even remotely smell something "fishy", Im getting the (expletive omitted) out real quick!

I enjoy fresh crisp salads, not those with dirty and rotten veggies. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

We seriously need to talk to him about his choice in "entrees".

I don't 'eat' anything if I need a clothes pin for my nose!

Even though the scent of a woman's beautiful pink treasure is intoxicatingly and wonderfully divine to me, it also resembles the aroma of a delicious heavenly fish- to me.

So...
...the old saying holds its marbles:

"If it smells like fish, make it a dish.
If it smells like cologne, leave it alone
."

'Dunno what you two fella's have been "cunnilinging" lately, 'cuz my nose knows best.
