Day 6 - 3 Things I Only See On BB.com and Nowhere Else In The World
1. The word swole. I’ve written about this word before and thought by now I’d hear it being said by people outside of the internet world. I’ve seen people comment on other people’s profile page saying they look swole. The person who’s profile it was on looked pretty awesome (male, mind you), so one would be able to realize that swole was a compliment. Unlike in the world outside of BB.com where it could be used as an insult. "Ooh. Your face is swole. Did you get stung by a bee?" or "Uh, how do I put this? Your butt is swole. Let’s go to the gym for date night!"
2. NO HOMO. I’ve seen this term also used by people who were commenting on other people’s profiles. Now, let’s analyze this. Typically it’s a man on man term where a male wants to pay a compliment to another male, and will say "No homo. You are looking swole. Keep up the good work." He wants to make clear that he isn’t a homosexual and isn’t paying the compliment as a pick up line and does NOT want naked penis pics sent to him. OR now that I think of it, it could mean he wants to make clear that he isn’t a homo sapien. Hmmm. Points to ponder.
3. Pictures of women posing with spoons. I’ve seen this on a few different pictures in the Photo Gallery and on a couple of profiles. Is the spoon a symbol of something? Is it a fetish thing where men get off on seeing women posing with a spoon? I saw a comment on one photo where the girl was holding a spoon by her face and a guy said "I prefer a fork." What is UP with this? Can someone clue me in? Thanks.
Here’s a sort of scavenger hunt: Find a woman who has a picture of herself posing with a spoon and ask her why she’s posing with it. And then come back here and post the answer in the comment section.

Im curious about the spoon.
October 25, 2008 at 5:30 am
wow you look swole! Yes-Hetero…do you come with a plate?
(lol…swole in a good way btw)
October 25, 2008 at 5:33 am
And the dish ran away with the spoon…….
October 25, 2008 at 5:41 am
Priceless…
Personally I’m a spatula kinda guy…LOL! Wisks would be really wild! And no comment on licking "beaters"….
One of the funniest things I’ve read in a Forum reply was one woman commenting on another’s women’s physique and, in a admitted nod to the infamous disclaimer you cite in #2, said: "(no lesbo)"….LOLOL!
October 25, 2008 at 5:45 am
I don’t think half the spooners would know why either, but yes I am curious.
October 25, 2008 at 5:48 am
Ah, the wonderful microcosm we live in here…..
October 25, 2008 at 5:51 am
So how would you interpret it if I took a profile shot with a spork then, eh? What if I had two sporks!? Oh, the possibilities….
October 25, 2008 at 5:58 am
I can’t even interpret a spoon, let alone a spork. That’s just too confusing for me
October 25, 2008 at 6:02 am
As soon as the sporks come out, might as well throw the car keys in the fishbowl…..
October 25, 2008 at 6:40 am
I must live under a rock, I have never seen or herd these terms, please enlighten me. Maybe I am too old and should not know.
October 25, 2008 at 6:42 am
I think I know what it is actually! Couple of months ago I was reading a thread in the forums and a girl had replied. A guy questioned as to whether the pic in the avi was in fact a pic of her — or if it was a guy posing as a girl. Logic being he used a pic he found on the internet. Therefore to prove that in fact that actually was a picture of the person in question. He asked her to pose with a spoon and take a pic - logic being the person wouldn’t be able to find such a unique pic on the internet - sorry about the long winded response - I think this is what the spoon signifies - a method of proof for the authenticity of the picture.
BTW Good morning Shannon!

Personally, I am waiting for the spork to make a comeback. I would never tell a woman she looks swole. The cold eye stare would shrink me to the size of a spoon. I have seen some photos of women with a spoon and most of the time I sense an honest moment from the picture. This is compared to someone who changes their profile pic 20 times while I am online for 10 minutes.

LMFAO….get your spoon out for your ext progress pics. Because NO ONE will believe they are you. Don’t be surfing on hotbodies.com for your next progress pic.
October 25, 2008 at 8:24 am
That "spoon" is a new one for me. Girl, where do you come up with this stuff?
October 25, 2008 at 3:25 pm

I don’t even know what to say. In looking for that I saw things… things I won’t be able to talk about for a long time.

She oughta have some pudding on those spoons. Something’s not right about licking an unused spoon.
WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THESE SPOON PICS????!!!!!
October 25, 2008 at 3:45 pm
What the hell??
October 25, 2008 at 6:13 pm
Do these spoons use batteries?
October 25, 2008 at 6:15 pm
Does anybody use plastic ones? Cheap bitches.
October 25, 2008 at 6:59 pm
No batteries and no plastic. Just basic metal spoons. Young people these days.
October 26, 2008 at 7:29 am
Hey Shannon,
You sure that profile pic is you?? I think you need to take a pic with a spoon to prove its you — lol
October 26, 2008 at 10:20 am
X2. Update pic of Shannon with spoon.
October 26, 2008 at 2:27 pm
I think you have that spoon in your right hand, but you were too shy to show it…. It will look nice with your Steeler Posing Suit.
October 27, 2008 at 9:25 pm
Pudding or PB! At least make it interesting!
October 28, 2008 at 12:26 am
"There is no spoon…"
or, if you’re a little too old for that comment
"These are not the spoons you are looking for…"
