UPDATE: CAG BOOBS: Not Quite Nekkid But Pretty Sweeeet - Poker Anyone? NSFW

[quote name='Backlash'][quote name='rapsodist'][quote name='Backlash']Doh. Doesn't she know that apostrophes make words possessive, not plural?

Nice pic anyway though :)[/quote]

An apostrophe can be used to indicate pluralization in the case of abbreviations and acronyms such as CAG. However, it's not a practice that everyone agrees upon, especially in modern usage of English. Because pluralization of abbreviations and acronyms are commonly accepted without apostrophes (in order to streamline the language and prevent confusion), most people are simply taught that apostrophes should never used for pluralization when that is not the entire truth.[/quote]

I remember it officially not being correct, even for the use of acronyms and letters and numbers. However, it probably became acceptable just because so many people did it - I hate that. It seems that if enough people make the same grammar mistake it becomes a part of the language :(

Be sure to check it out, this fine group will be able to answer all of your apostrophe questions.


I heard of this group from the following story:

[quote name='rapsodist']Personally, I'm all for eradicating apostrophes in pluralization to streamline this convoluted language of ours. But I should note that, as a writer who studied the language, usage of an apostrophe to pluralize letters appears to date back some hundreds of years in old Britain, so it may not be entirely a recent "stupid American" mistake (though we'd be responsible for many other blights).

Now with that said, thanks for the fun conversation, Backlash, but it feels very strange discussing semantics in a thread all about boobies. :lol:[/quote]

But.. but... semantics are more fun than boob teases! Besides, we've seen this web-begging gimmick a million times already. Apostrophe use, now that's important stuff.

Thing is, simply to be legible, you need the apostrophe to pluralize letters. I think that Purdue link earlier was pretty good.

Example: In the word, Mississippi, there are three i's, two p's, and four s's.

Regardless of capitalization, you need the apostrophe otherwise you get a misinterpretation of the word "is", as well as confusing words "ps" and "ss." There are other examples as well such as "As", "Os", "Es", etc.

For the same reason, any capitalized acronyms don't need the apostrophe. CAGs, ICBMs, H*Rs, STDs, etc. No confusion there, since the capitalization denotes a clear plurality.

If there are an arguable function for it, I can stand by the rule.
 
Congratulations to "sblymnlcrymnl" as that is my controller of choice. I love the hard-rubber feeling :oops:

Anyway I want to thank all the CAGs or CAG's - do we have a consensus on the apostrophe yet? Some of you have been very kind to donate and some of you just ask for more revealing pictures. In either case I appreciate the love.

By the way I think bald guys are sexy, CheapyD is a cutie. :twisted:

Wow!!! I "love" the topic of this thread!!

Welcome to CAG SmileTopless and congratulations on your site!! I definitely hope you reach your goal.

It's funny because it's ... you know, maybe it's alright if I don't use the obligatory Simpsons quote this time.
 
[quote name='NormanB258']You guys know that all the girls in your neighborhood have boobs too, right?

Honest.[/quote]

Sadly, like so many other threads, someone feels the need to step in and piss all over a a good thing - or in this case things. You will not rain on my parade Cheap Ass Boobs Forever!
 
Wow! You donated 20.00? I gave 5, and thought of giving more but I am waiting on CheapyD's decision on the "Jug Drive"
 
Hell no I am saving money to buy my GF a bood job first. Plus unless I get to cop a feel of my purchase than screw that, I was just noting what her total donations were to date.

I think it's about a 4500.00 procedure...so 20.00 is 0.004%+ So how much 'feel' would you be entitled to?

I fear such selfishness will drive her away from this forum and return this into a cheap ass sausage fest. ](*,)

Not exactly my point. Like or not she made that page and those pictures for a purpose. I don't know anything about making a homepage but I am assuming it would be very dificult to create and maintain. If she doesn't make any money, she will stop investing her time in it. Speaking of which, doesn't it cost a lot of money to get a host for your homepage?

I guess I am overly excited about this. She brought together my two biggest loves, boobs, and games.

Futhermore she's just nice. She answers my emails and emailed me a personalized picture after I sent her a donation. I hope she gets bigger yams, and I hope she stays around this forum.
 
I knew it would happen, just didn't know it would happen so soon. Our DocBledsoe is all grown up now, and is in love. God, to think just the other day he was just a boy. *gets misty eyed* Go to her son, go to her and never let her go.

I want this kind of support when I open my wang enhancement thread next month (just 10 bucks for the sweedish pump :cool: )

PS if she's in need of a bra she can use my hands...

...until the restraining order takes effect.... :shock:
 
Enough of the PG rated shots. Let's see some titties, and where in gods name is her head in all of these pictures?!!
 
[quote name='chickenhawk']Eh...not all that exciting. No offense, but she looks like she's got nothing more than more shapely man boobs.[/quote]
yeah she looks deformed
 
Im confused. I read negative replies here but in the other thread it was proved that CAGs prefer Asian women.

Seems like alot want to have their cake and eat it to...
 
[quote name='Drico']Enough of the PG rated shots. Let's see some titties, and where in gods name is her head in all of these pictures?!![/quote]

Either she wants to maintain some sense of privacy (which would seem to make sense... I'm sure some less that scrupulous adult site owners just scour the web looking for pictures) or she looks like she was smacked about the face with the back of a shovel.

Either way, it's probably a good idea.
 
1. Why no head shots? Nipples?
- (2) part answer. 1). I am already subject to the
rudeness of chickenhawk, moxio and danny-o. All of
which are completely moral pillars of cuteness and no
doubt have equally attractive boyfriends with tits as
large as I want.
2). I am not giving it all away up front.

2. Was I scared off?
No. I work full time and go to law school - I don't
have much unfiltered internet time dring the day.

My site will get better as the donations come in. Of
the few donations I have received, only one of them
was a cheap ass gamer :( . I would like to thank
DocBledsoe for his donation and the sweet words. I
would also like to thank those of you who have been so
nice to me. But as Doc pointed out this does take a
lot of my time and energy and so far (thanks to my
domain registration fees, hosting fees and finger
paint costs) I am actually further from my goal than
when I started.

I would like some suggestions on what I could do to
raise moeny within the CAG community. While I am
flattered by some of your graphic desires, I would
prefer to keep the suggestions practical.

By the way thanks to jrutz for finding the Outpost.com
deal on GTA. I will be preordering that one myself.

Yes, it's a privacy issue...just like the water mark on my picture. I don't want to end up on some sleazy porn site where I'm not getting compensated. Plus, I don't want my dad, brothers, or basically anyone I've known to see my boobies flopping around on cyberspace.

Yes, because outright attacking other users is really going to have people rally to your cause. Yep.




2. Was I scared off?

Yes, because all aspiring lawyers run to post semi-nude photos of themselves on the internet, and want to make changes to themselves that will sometimes have a negative effect on their effectiveness as a litigator or negotiator.

Why would a CAG pay for pictures of somewhat average looking woman?
There are plenty of pictures around of many, many other women in much much more comprimising positions.
Heck, even on CAG some of the posters have posted pictures of themselves. Even from this small sample, both Minx and AngelicLulu seem to be more attractive than what has been posted of you.

Probably not much. The userbase spans a wide variety of people and beliefs, but the one thing they have in common is that they are cheap.
I don't know about others, but I have much, much better things I could be doing with 20 dollars than donating it to a rather selfish cause...
heck, I'd happly shell out twice as much if there were a reason more than just pure vanity... for instance, to a sufferer of breast cancer.

That's like 5 seconds in photoshop.

Aw thanks... but I'm not taking my top off JSweeney, you charmer. :oops:
And back to the topic, I wouldn't go as far as to say tramp like Moxio, but there are better ways to make money than to show some skin. Some people make comics or create parodies and ask for donotions. Some sell their souls on ebay (seriously it went for 3 dollars). Do something better than just posting semi-naked pictures.
And don't get me started on the boob job thing. You don't want big breasts! I have em and I don't want em. They are a pain in the neck... literally. You know what kind of back problems they cause? And I have no balance whatsoever.
I think you are a pretty person, and law school is very admirable, don't screw it up.
 
Thanks for the analysis JSweeny. If you don't want to
donate then please do not donate. If you think I am
not that great to look at do not look. And if you
think I am selfish and vain - you're right. I think
plastic surgery would be the most obvious sign of
these traits.

I applaud your desires to donate to worthwhile causes
and hope you do. I would never suggest that my "cause"
come before any such charity.

So for the most part I agree with your incredibly
negative tirade. I do not think you speak for all the
users on this forum. CAGs maybe cheap, but much in the
same way breast augmentation is VERY OBVIOUSLY vanity
incarnate, a forum of guys who discuss how to best
spend their extra money on recreation games is in fact
a forum of guys with DISPOSABLE INCOME.

I want to thank the cutie that just sent me 20.00. If
it is ok to mention you here I will edit this post.
Thanks a million and I will send you something to show
my appreciation very soon!
 
I don't think there's anything wrong with what she's doing. There's something she wants (Boob job) and she's using the internet to get it done. No one is forced to look at her naked form, or visit her site, or donate. She asks and either you do or you don't.

We shouldn't judge others just because we don't agree with how they do things. Personally I don't think she should get the boob job but she wants it, and if it'll make her feel better about herself then so be it. At least she has a goal and way to achieve it.

[quote name='"levi333"']Didnt read much of the thread, but im thinking "butter face."[/quote

yeah, unless she proves us WRONG! :?
 
Not to add fuel to the fire, and no offense intended, but I was poking around the site and this caught my eye:

Q: What happens if the site doesn't get to the $4500 mark?

A: Then the site will go under. The site takes a lot of my time and if I don’t make the money, I will have to disappear.
Click to expand...

Does that mean the money disappears too, or if you don't reach your goal will you be refunding the donations?

Reason I ask, is people will donate with the notion in mind that they're going to get something in return, such as viewing your "new and improved" pictures. If you don't reach your goal, what do they get?
