Ok: I hafta counterpoint my sweet lil nephew's thread/Turn Offs} No, not my REAL nephew, but I'd sure be proud if he was!

WHAT is a TURN on for you? It does NOT have to be "sexual"....despite it being ME who started this thread! :) Watch me....I'll go first......
Turn on can mean { something that makes you say awwwwww or something that makes you say oooooh-ahhhhhh:)

TURN ON:
Seeing somebody { strangers in public places} be NICE to others.....a random act of kindness......

define everything..lol

That would be me...almost

What everything or a guy who knows a lot about computers..Lol (I know, I know)

hmm.. Someone who has good hygiene.

I'm a Mitchum man!

lol. my goodness. :D

Guys that are musically inclined and can play instruments! (Drums, guitar, piano, flute, anything!) I think it's great.

I can play Cello, Drums and double-bass.

You do? That's terrific Nigel. I play a little piano, and I'm learning guitar right now.

Piano seems so hard, I don't know how people can play it!

It takes practice. I play mostly by ear. Keyboard is fun too.

Neato Jen, that's how play with drums, by ear..I have to sit down and study a piece of music before I can play it on the cello or double-bass though.

Cologne> Vetiver/Guerlain; Aramis
Shaved head on right guy
Jeanne Moreau
Creme Brulee
Holding hands no matter the place

what.s jeanne moreau?

She is a very famous French Actress

oh. lol. i thought it was something like cremme brulee lol.

Australians..........their accents are mmmmmmmmhh!! and their friendly personalities are even more mmmmmmmmhhhh!

Second are the French accents...along with that passionate language! They bring a real " joie de vivre s'il vous plait !!! mmmmmhhh yes indeed.

I love lookin' at a guy in jeans and no shirt and being barefoot...so sweet.

Then there is the wonderful Pacific Ocean...on a soft summer day with a bit of a breeze and hearing the seabirds songs.....I can be alone on a walk or have a most lovely person alongside me....

Classical music is a total turn on...anyone ever heard "Bolero" it begins real real slllllllllllllllow and then escalates to a dynamic climax in the music, your heart cant help but get excited.

Beautiful works of art, paintings, sculptures and poetry.

Hearing the voice and music of Stevie Ray Vaughn, Santana and the beat of any good drummer. I'm teaching myself drums...got me a set not long ago...I also love the sweet sounds of a violin or a harp....

Wow, this can become a long list..

LOL@ Andrew

Intelligence
Large hands .....you know what they say about men with large hands ...ohh la la ...
Great sense of humor !
Animal lover

Bolero.Oui!; Pachabel's Canon also; Santana , Oui! J'adore et aussi Daft Punk;Voilkin Oui especially Adagios by Bach;paintings by David;L'accent Francais..I am too prejudiced,,,,,,,,,,,,BUT!!LOL

Voilkin?????

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh my my!! Adagios by Back, yes indeed Philippe! I have a few French CD's sent long ago by a friend...I'll have to look at their names and see what YUR thoughts are on them. Pachabels Canon is fantatic...I guess the German is coming out in me.....thats where I lived with all that gorgeous music. I love the paintings by Monet most of all...Oui!!

Monet is overrated.........too commercial but his later work which almost no one knows is, oddly, his best as he was practically completely blind and forced to take a turn towards the highly abstract........

He might be overrated, I dont know,... but My favorite Monet is "The Magpie", the softness is fantastic. I love the way he paints his skies and also the various rivers and waterways.The shadows in the painting called "The Harbour at Argenteuil" are just fantastic along with the clouds in that one. I really like all the "Argenteuil" works of his.I guess I am intrigued with the way he uses soft colours, I especially love his waterlily paintings.But then again, there are many other great artists to love.

Yes, i know this painting.he could "do" snow like no one else.........I say overrated because several other artists of the time were painting better..Chaim Soutine: VanGogh; Matisse; Manet; Derain......etc....none were commercialized as were his..........he had the money to market it and that always is a great advantage.

earthy? like mud?

i also like a nice pair of shades on a girl. can.t go wrong there ;P

I'm guessing probably more like Patchouly or Sage...but being Curt, it may well be mud!!!

lol. i never smelled those things.

Hey.... I only like mud if there is a "cow-pie" mixed in with it... :oP

And yes, patchouli, frankenscence, myrr, sandlewood... you get it. :o)

picnics on a hillside...wine and cheese.....
with a bb gun to shoot at strangers randomly.....





{ kidding about the bb gun}...just hate sounding normal...

The aroma of orange as one peels back the well.............peel.....
The feel of a cool sheet on a humid night

Dang it Terri...and here I thought I found something to bond with you over...I love BB guns...especially when I can shoot them randomly at strangers!!!

Passes bb gun to Jen.....{let's go......}.........

i shot my brother in his "round one" w.a bb gun :) it was a horrible accident.

I'll bet...."accident"

he didn.t shut up. and i pointed it his way to scare him. and i went trigger happy. guns are dangerous things.

The touch of a tender kiss gently placed on the back of my neck.

The taste of champagne over fresh strawberries

After a rainshower, the scent of freshness lingering.

I went and read Dante's comment about peeling oranges..How does peeling fruit turn you on?

The scent of an orange as one peels it is fragrant and sweet! :) I agree!

TURN ON: there is just something appealing about the name DIXIENORMUS

ugh.. nono.

LMFAO! I'm kind of sweet on the whole Madmaven idea too. LOL.

LOL. i heard a rumor that his username lies. lol.

when somone turns on a light.. thats a turn on. :D :D :D

Randy...roll another one....with a sense of humor, and a gallery like his....who cares? :)
Nice stuff in your gallery!!!!!!!! How have I missed all those?

Wow.....the whole phylosophy of that makes complete sense Rhea......I'm enlightened!

Okay madmaven.....I'm typing and twisting. Thanks for lookin at my stuff! Glad you like it.....=)

TURN ONS: Monday Night Football

ok. u gotta gimme a min on your last statement. cause i don.t get it. gimme a min -ponders- lol

Colorful conversation... and slightly off-colorful, but with impeccable timing.

Any of you ever read the poem on peeling and eating a peach? Well, the same can be applied to an orange. ^_*

Agree with Lady V! Also....get that cliche' visual....feeding grapes to somebody or being fed grapes.....:) Hmmm, Kim Basinger...and that movie where some guy fed her fruit....{91/2 weeks?} now...that was icky...hahahaha

a man's sweat............Oui! I said that!!!

on the rocks or frozen? :)

9.5 weeks... I loved it. Mickey Rourke was in that and the sequel, me thinks. The next one was Carrie Otis... his longtime girlfriend. Not as good though IMO. And did you ever see him in Angel Heart? Ay yay yay.

Anyway... um, erotic flicks as stated above. Also add "Crimes of Passion" to that list with Kathleen Turner and Anthony Hopkins.

Not a turn on:;sharing and being ignored

I had an epiphany today...every 4th of July, my hubby gets lucky...I just realized that its the loud booming sounds of the fireworks...
cannons do it for me too...and like I said the loud boom of an F18 going redeye

Yes I probably DO need therapy...growing up in the military no doubt contributed to my love of the BOOM

I dub thee .. boomboom-astrega

Chases CURT all around room, wearing ELVIRA nails............

Turn on's

men who are not ashamed to buy feminine products for me if needed..:)

Don't know if it is a case of embarrassment ... or more so confusion.

I mean ... really ... with wings ... without wings ... gun turrets ... without gun turrets ... and so on.

Turn on:

Being able to laugh at oneself.

Yea, I'm always doing that. Anyone who's ever actually heard me speak... it's hard to understand me through my constant giggling.

But usually I'm laughing at the little people in my head... great guys...

Anyone ever seen the film Paying It Forward? The kid in that... I just thought he was so sweet... and then he went and got stabbed for being nice to people. But he got a loada candles in the end :P

I LOOOOOOVE puppy dog eyes, they just look so sweet. (When people are doing puppy dog eyes... not the eyes of puppy dogs... I'm not into that sorta thing :P )

Being in love with Wor-Lass?....

Ahhh... you old softie you. ;oP

hahaha/ Gemma....you are a trip!
Turn on: all my buddies on Caedes:)

Really?
Now, Imagine the Staypuff Marshmallow Man, except make him a pasty white flesh color... that me. You still turned on? :oP

turn on...as in.....makes me all warm and fuzzy! { must buy a new razor...:) Yes...I love YOU, Curtie-Bear!

*blush*

guys who know how to dress...it's always nice to see a guy constantly making an effort for you isnt it ladies!

being understand that when im annoyed going ''aww huni,'' isnt going to help, i understand you so when they do vice versa its nice :D

nice top halves...well actually *shuts up*

It's all gooooood.

People who can be childish in a good way.
Being able to play.
I like to listen to the Fray.
Oh yay.

Poem :P

The smell of fresh baked bread

Laughing so hard you have to hold your side

Road trips in the summer with the music blaring

Getting flowers for no special reason at all

oo i'm all for the road trips with the music blaring!!

&& people that aren't afraid to show affection in public and basically, in general lol & they do it in the most obnoxious way that makes u wanna smack um coz they drew too much attention..but ya gotta luv um anyway..i'm wierd..i know =]

'K, come get sum Ria ...

*opens arms ... takes notice that Ria isn't as turned on by his gesture of PDA as previously stated* :o\

:oP

Turn ons? Kindness ... a gentle heart ... a healing word and touch. :o))

hehe ^^^ right there. he's such a turn on with his amazing words it just makes ya wanna..oo..melt. ladies & gents....er..maybe we'll stick with ladies ;) mr. purrrrrmusic ;D lol every gal's dream guy. don't be shy les! *lures les into a crowd of women with cadbury mini eggs* thats it..c'mon now...*starts counting her $$*

LOL.

*steals mini eggs*

Cadburys ROCKS.

People who love Cadburys as much as me, but not enough to steal it from me.

And people who have actually heard of a Cadburys StarBar.

It's like, the least known Cadburys chocolate, but the BEST.

They will know of it now ...

Cadbury's Star Bar.

Got any? :oD

One of my favs ... one of ...

Blueberry Cheesecake Crunch Cookie. :o))

Oh yeah ... it's a turn on.

Whew ... need a cold shower after that.

*goes off to 'cool down' * :oP

Les... you have problems.

The review for that Star Bar... annoyed me. There is enough peanut taste, it is just combined with a sort of peanut butter type filling. It is NOT too sweet, there is enough chocolate for me, otherwise it would overpower the caramel and nuts. It is perfectly balanced in my opinion.

Cranberry juice.

Leonardo DiCrappio's horrible Boston-Irish accent said "hi, and thank you"

Music. as in, something that can be measured on a musical scale, and the main instrument isn't a pile of silicon chips

Hear, hear ... get it? Huh? Huh?

'K ... I'm ... almost done ...

People who find wisdom in these words:

"Work like you don't need money,
Love like you've never been hurt,
And dance like no one's watching."

*busts a move ... sends out some love ... throws bankbook to the back of the drawer* :o)

lol thats something everyone should follow. anyone up for gettin fired? here, here!

People who post on lots of threads at once. They are soooo haaawt!!!
