“Don’t you feel well officer?”
“I just want to see if they can reverse my vasectomy.”

“Sure do! But it’s not ‘well’ I wanna feel…”

“Not sure yet. See, how well I feel depends on how much I can grab.”

“It’s just that dress is so tight, I figure we’ll need to borrow a scalpel to get it off.”

Reworking some crude oldies:
“Nice gams, what time do they open?”?
“I’m casting a movie, can I get your gams a part.”
‘Course by now y’all know I’m looking at her chestal pyramids…
I used ‘Nice Legs, what time do they open’ as a pick up line once when I was younger (and stupider). After dating her for four months, I vowed never to use that line again.
In case I get shot with those “Bullets” or sunk with her “torpedoes”
She’s definitely loaded for bare.
It was so cold, you could cut glass with those things!
I just wish you hadn’t colored her stockings! The nude look was way sexier.
In regard to the stockings, I like ’em, but I don’t disagree that the “nude” look probably would’ve emphasized her legs more because of the contrast.
I think Diego was probably going for a unified color scheme—plus he may have been inspired to ape Bill Ward’s “fetish” art look from late in Ward’s career.
Who cares what color her stockings are!? It’s not like she going to be wearing them much longer, at least not once DR. PKM starts “the examination”, if you know what I mean !
I’ve made this comment before but here it is again, sort of…
I remember when I was first exposed to the word “Gams”. An episode of I Love Lucy had a guest appearance by Betty Grable. Fred Mertz, at rehearsal pulls up a chair close to the dance floor and explains that, “I’ve gotta get a gander at those gorgeous Grable gams.”
Young as I was at the time, I did recognize that yes, they were a dandy set of pins.
