I doubt Drew Barrymore or Ellen Page will be there, tho. mo's the pity

only 5 bucks, and there's a live band for half time show and everything.

I only know Roller Derby from TV.
I certainly have no expectation of Drew Barrymore or Ellen Page - I guess they're connected by a movie? Never seen it.
I would expect to see tough young women battling it out. Women who I thought I would become back in the day.

Many of whom would conform to my idea of beauty.
At least from the age at which I started getting crushes on women.
Maybe uber-feminine in looks but certainly butch in action.
Tattoes and wigs.
Sparkly make-up and fuck-you attitudes.
Femmes on wheels who'd elbow you in the guts but turn round and pick up a team-mate.
That most of all - a woman in love who'd even sacrifice a win. So much less disgusting when she wasn't submitting to a man.

No, I'm not a lesbain. I do love the cock. But apart from Amsterdam I've been celibate for 3? 4? years now. And I miss it. The ins and outs.

I'd apologise for hijacking, but this is the thread to do it in.
And after all, you made an interesting post to respond to.

Can an attention whore be a post whore?


If so, I'm in then. . .

Cloud, I think that you would enjoy roller derby immensely! It's so much fun.

You might be put off a bit by the aggressive/confrontational posturing that some of the girls do, but just keep reminding yourself that it's a lot like professional wrestling in that regard--it's all in good fun, and most of the girls are fierce friends backstage.

The Chucotown Chulas beat the Sexatronics! Complete with fights, injuries, a punk band, tattoos, body paint, fishnets, and penalties settled by pillow fights and tugowar. Next match: Las Catrinas v. Las Diablas. Girl Power to the max!

the nav is shit, but you can find the roller girls easy enough.

Hmmmmm. Don't think so, feels stiff rather than bruised, but could be. I'm thinking that's my laundry basket carrying arm and I did do a fuck-load of laundry. But I'm not that out of shape.....

Facebook ads have often used really bizarre images to get your attention, but this is the craziest I've see yet. Screen grab from this morning. WTF?
