I felt a complete t*t
By SammoR
02 November 2007

This is a bit of whimsy, not to be taken seriously at all. (And before anyone asks this is FICTION!!!)

I wrote to enter in a flash competition - so to speak! - but although I was just within the word limit I decided not to submit it.

Posted it here 'cos it's been ages since I've submitted anything.

Comments welcome. Incidentally, I've made most of the rest of my portfolio 'visible' again, after a resounding run of bad luck in recent competitions.

Enjoy...?


I’m a boob man. A few years ago, I decided I had to change. Sometimes I’d be looking and the woman would glare back. I knew if I went on I’d get a stiletto heel in the head, or a kicking from a boyfriend.

 

So I decided I’d always look away whenever I saw a great pair of jugs. It worked a treat, although I walked into a few lampposts at the beginning.

 

Then one day, I’m on the train, sitting on one of the facing seats. This curvy woman is sitting opposite me, with a plunging neckline.

 

I try to look away – my eyes meet those of a really camp bloke, stood by the door. I quickly look away – no, must look away from the norks – and I’m looking at the back of a studenty bloke’s porn magazine.  I look away – I’m looking there again!

 

Just a few minutes left till my stop. I’ll shut my eyes…

 

And mumble ‘I won’t look, I won’t look..’

 

Then sweaty hands grab my shoulders. I open my eyes. The woman’s come over, hoiked her huge melons out of her top, and held them in my face.

 

‘God-bothering freak!’ she shouts. ‘See a bit of flesh and think it makes you dirty… Shutting your eyes and praying. Most natural things on earth – you sucked on a pair when you were little – not since, I bet!’

 

Everyone laughs. Boy, am I embarrassed! Just in time, we get to my stop. I mumble my apologies and leave.

 

I take the bus for weeks. Bummer – my worst humiliation came when I was looking away, not staring. Since then, though, I’ve been cured. Now I don’t look, don’t look away - I’m completely unfazed. The memory of those huge bazoomers will keep me going for a lifetime….

Nice bit of business, Sammo. Good to see you back. 
 
The trick of the tail or even the tale- is to salivate whilest looking. That way there can be no misunderstanding. 
 
Lovely piece 
 
Slan!

An amusing story. I would have liked to have pictured the man - age etc. Was he a vicar? That would have been funny.
I didn't give much detail...

...because i was trying to keep the word total down. 
 
From his rather infantile turn of phrase we can surmise that he is in his late twenties. 
 
Don't think he's a vicar. Lady probably thought he was a 'God botherer' because of his desperate looking away, eye-shutting and the mumbling, which she took to be some prayer to be saved from temptation.

I suppose he's lucky he's a "boob man" - things could've gone badly wrong if his preference was for thighs or bottoms. 
 
Loved this, brightened up my Monday!

So he's a Boob man, I wonder if he has trouble buying shirts? Perhaps he gets them altered. 
I was intrigued more by the woman's response, what on earth was her problem? 
Strange tale, oddly enjoyable
