The only time I really use a "term" for attractive men is when
they've got long hair--that's the type of guy that attracts me
automatically.....
I call 'em "long-haired lovelies"...
And....
"scoping" means looking
"scamming" means trying to get their attention....etc

(any idea why most "terms of affinity" of this nature, for either sex,
are often food-related? Maybe it links up with the doritos-lust
connection somehow....only time and research will tell! ;)
If I'm trying to get his attention?
I'm scooping.

480.16 | Hey! Let's go to a club and get depressed! | MILKWY::JLUDGATE | purple horseshoes | Mon Oct 29 1990 10:07 | 30 |
| friend of mine explains 'scamming' as scanning and meeting
(as opposed to just scanning/looking)
i've never really liked the term, guess other definitions of
scamming stick in my mind.
i use the term scanning myself...scoping...if i see somebody, and
want to point her out to my friends, i will use myself as a reference,
and use the clock for direction (2:00 from me....black dress).
but i try not to go out with the intent of meeting people. a song
by the smiths turned me off of that....it was too close to reality.
There's a club if you'd like to go,
You could meet somebody
Who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave all alone
And you go home
And you cry
And you want to die.
When you say it's gonna happen now
Well, when exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone.
(and i smile as the crowd joyously dances to the happy
music the song is set to.....)

480.20 | Mommy's a BAAAAD influence! | KAHALA::CAMPBELL_K | Looks like someday is here! | Mon Oct 29 1990 14:58 | 11 |
| Was at Dunkin Donuts parking lot, forgot my 7 yr old was in the car
and remarked to myself "ooooh--look at that hunk in the black car"
Then heard a "Where? What's a hunk?" Try explaining THAT to a
7 year old boy.
Did something similar with my 5 yr old in the car, taking a turn,
saw the most adorable black leather jacketed/bluejeaned backside
ever! Remarked "Wow! THAT sure looks good in black" All I heard
the rest of the way home was a series of "Whats? and Wheres?"

I'm sure I've ruined my daughter irretrievably -- we point out
good-looking guys to each other.

480.22 | it's fun | GLITER::STHILAIRE | Food, Shelter & Diamonds | Mon Oct 29 1990 17:20 | 13 |
| re .21, :-) Melissa and I have been pointing out goodlooking guys to
each other for years. I'm afraid we sometimes cruelly point out guys
we find unappealing, too. We nudge each other and say, "There's your
boyfriend!" "Oh, yeah? Well *there's* yours!" (Then, we saw a movie
where two girlfriends said the same thing to each other and we thought
it was hilarious. I forget what the movie was, but it had Victoria
Jackson in it.)
When we point out goodlooking guys, we usually just say something like
"Did you see the one with earring/long hair/whatever?" "Yeah, not
bad, huh."

480.24 | Cruisin' the Tube | YUPPY::DAVIESA | Full-time Amazon | Tue Oct 30 1990 03:50 | 16 |

For "window shopping" - "tube spotting".
Arises from the fact that here in London the most delicious guys and
gals all seem to be found on the Underground. There is the added
tantalisation that they may be getting off at the next stop, so you
can justify staring ....;-)
Tube spotting calls for a completely different technique from cruisin'
pretty people on InterCity trains, however....it's an Art Form.
Just LOVE eye-contact in the rush-hour!

should have seen the guy *I* saw this morning! It's unfair that someone
can look so surreally beautiful at 7.45am...8-*)

Just as long as you're not so distracted that you forget to "mind
the gap", as one friend of mine did. :-)

| >But then I suppose that's not true for all lines, huh, 'gail?
Nope. Actually, not all stations have gaps - I can only think of about
6 off the cuff. One of them however is Bank, which I have to go to
quite often, and boy is that recorded message IRRITATING!
>For the record, the distracting Underground riders are most definitely
>*not* restricted to members of the male gender. Yowza!
I sort of hoped that by being non-gender specific about the Tube
beauties I'd managed to convey that. I certainly Tube-cruise/stare at *all*
of them! ;-)
What I want to know is.....how come they all look so healthy when they
appear to *live* underground?

Well, in four days of Tube-riding, *I* only heard the recorded message
once. I think it was at Paddington.

Well since I'm married I don't go 'scoping' or anything
but like I tell my friends "I'm married, not blind"
For good looking guys it's
Humina humina
Long haired lustie
Studmuffin

OOF! suffices..... =)
