14th Century Nuggets of Joy

[Sethomas]

From the book I'm reading:
"He did not have the look of a man who could please his mistress when he held her naked in his arms. For his beard was little more than the kind of fuzz that ladies have in certain places."

"It is easy to judge by the state of hay whether the pitchfork is any good."

"Lady, answer me without any deceit. Is there any hair between your legs?"
- "None at all."
"Indeed I do believe you, for grass does not grow on a well-beaten path."

From the poetry of Jean de Condé, ca. 1360.

I love history.

[Esuohlim]

As of now, so do I.

[Matt Harty]

In English class we read a story from the Decameron (I have no idea how to spell it) about this priest who teaches a young girl how to put the "devil" back into "hell." Once he has had his fun with her he sends her around to other religious types to continue her study of "theology." Eventually she learns from some other neighborhood women that she isn't really pious at all, just a big slut.

Back in high school I had to read the Canterbury Tales (sp?). One of the stories told by the baker was very um...interesting so interesting in fact that we skipped over it in our reading because it was "inapropriate" I read it on my own but I don't really remember much except that I ended with a guy getting his anus burned shut with a fire poker.

[AChimp]

Kitty of Doom, answer me without any deceit. Is there any hair between your legs?

[Kitty of Doom]

Why would you ask a question like that?

[noob3]

[AChimp]

[Cosmo Electrolux]

The Millers Wives Tale..... funnier than hell...

[Hobo Renee]

Yeah, Kitty of doom is thinking of the Miller's wives tale. Good times.

[Kitty of Doom]

Yeah thats what I meant. Bakers Tale...I must have been thinking about food at the time.

AChimp, now I know why you asked me that question, it was in the poem that Sethomas posted...Wow I'm slow today. I guess that's what I get for not sleeping for two days.

There's a local supermarket in my town called the Nugget. It's supposed to be in reference to the goldrush...
