NFT: "Too beautiful to play volleyball"

DanMetroMan : 7/29/2014 12:06 pm
A teenage volleyball player from Kazakhstan is coming under fire, but it's not because of her skills. It's because of her looks.

Critics say Sabina Altynbekova, 17, is so beautiful that it's a distraction to the sport. Even the athlete's own coach says his team is increasingly about one player, at least as far as the fans are concerned.

"It is impossible to work like this," Nurlan Sadikov, coach of the nation's under-19 team, told Tengrin News in a quote translated by the Daily Mail. "The crowd behaves like there is only one player at the championship."

Most of us are well over 18. Sleeping with someone under that age is at minimum creepy and possibly illegal, depending on where you are. Not quite the same as drinking before 21.

I've always wondered about old guys with young girlfriends. Sure the sex is probably great, but what do you do when you actually have to have a conversation with her?

Just make sure you have a three way every time. This way when the sex is done the two girls can have a conversation and you can roll over and go to sleep.

Hey, at least we don't live in Spain.

Changes agreed in principle in 2009 and expected to come into force this month also raise marriageable age from 14 to 16

I'm not blasting Beez?

His Molly Pan post wasn't even creepy- everyone's interpretation of it was what was creepy.

That's what made it funny, IMO. I imagine that's why the subject of the thread also thought it was funny.




And not that I put much thought into the prior thread...  
Dunedin81 : 7/30/2014 2:14 pm : link
but Beez is a big boy. There are some posters here that have a tenuous grip on sanity or just simply aren't that bright and piling on them has shades of gym class dodgeball. He's not in that category.
I actually thought it was funny, in a bizarre way.

My great-great grandfather married my great-great grandmother when he was 35 and she was 15.

Oh, and they were first cousins. Hey, look, it was totally normal in 1870s Georgia! STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT!


At last! An explanation that makes sense.

Geneology sometimes tells you more than you'd like to know about your family history. A lot more.

How awesome would it be for Greg to find out that one of his ancestors either attended or somehow was involved with VA Tech?

The realization that he's from Hokie trash stock would definitely be something I want to witness.

Oddly enough, works in 2014 Georgia as well...(both of them)

Reminds me of a conversation I had with my doorman when I lived in the city, he was furious with George Bush because he had heard there were Russian tanks in Georgia....yes, that Georgia..

He has the first cousin marriage thing in his past, so there may be a link to VT....

Dropping that nuclear bomb on North Carolina was worse. Tell these guys the Civil War is over.
at least there was only that one  
Greg from LI : 7/31/2014 10:43 am : link
Once I found that one, I was petrified that I'd find a whole bunch of them.

You can simply say that you come from a very close knit family.
