So let’s take a hypothetical situation and see how you all feel about it via a poll, shall we? π
Say a top and a brat make a wager over whether the brat can complete a certain task by a certain time. It’s not the top’s idea to time it — she’s the one who expresses doubt that the brat will be able to do (for example) three different chores in half an hour. It’s the brat who insists she can, and says she’ll time it to prove it. The top agrees, but warns there will be a penalty for every minute over the half hour. She knows the brat usually underestimates the time it takes her to complete things. You’d think the brat, who has known herself faaaar longer than the top has known her, would realize this. But the brat (like many brats) is an eternal optimist.
Sure enough, the chores take 34 minutes to complete. Which actually impresses the top, but is nonetheless 4 minutes over. The penalty which the top imposes involves a smack with a hairbrush on the count of 4: (one)*swat* (two)*swat* (three)*swat* (four)*swat*….you get the idea.Β And then a extra hard swat whenever the number FOUR is mentioned. And this is the song which will be used to count out those smacks:
That seems pretty straightforward, no?
Reactions, anyone? π
She teases ME about having spanking on the brain all the time and she comes up with this while watching kids’ videos!? Hmmm. *lol*
Hey, I resemble that remark! (As do all of y’all, so I’m in good company! π )
LOL That’s funny! Maybe you can write a story based on this. I think someone misses having a real fleshy human bottom to spank. Heheheheh.
Oh, I miss a LOT of things, SP….you’ve no idea! π A story, huh? Now there’s a thought….*bg*
I like the idea of a story
btw my username has changed some but I’m still cutey
Not only are you Cutey, but you’re Cutey with a shiny new picture! π Very sweet.
Well, I suppose if the hypothetical Top in question is have trouble counting all the way up to four, then it’s a good thing there’s helpful videos that can assist with that. *grins*
*having trouble
I saw it just as I hit the button and tried to stop it, but it went through anyway. Ah well, I suppose it’s good that I saw it so quickly instead of not noticing for days.
OMG cras! You are so risking a spanking saying that!
You do realize that’s more encouragement than discouragement with this crowd, don’t you, Becka? π
Sweetness? Do you really think you should be commenting on the hypothetical top’s math when you are still working on your English? *raised brow* π
The reason for the grammatical error was that I typed something else and decided to change it and simply missed that one alteration. (Yes, I was going to say something else, edited, and the above comment is what I decided to go with. I probably am a bit insane.) And I did catch it pretty quickly, just not soon enough to stop the comment from posting. Shame there’s not an edit button, because I could have had it fixed within a minute if there was. (But I can also think of numerous ways to abuse the ability to edit, which means all the other brats can as well, so it’s probably best it’s not there.)
I’d blame the late hour and tiredness for part of my editing error, but then you’d just tell me to go to bed. π
No explanation is necessary, Cras. I was just teasing you, since you saw fit to needle me. For future reference, I’m quite happy to edit any typos upon request.
And yes, if you’re tired and it’s past your bedtime, I would tell you to go to bed. π
Well, in all fairness, I did vote in the poll for “Is great! Creative and funny. The top’s a genius. :)” because I did think it was a good and sort of fun idea. But yeah, I did feel that some needling was in order. After all, I wouldn’t be a brat if I didn’t do a little bratting on rare occasion. I’ll keep the editing thing in mind for the future though because that’s good to know.
And, of course, as I have no bedtime, I think I’m safe in regards the idea of going to bed being suggested to me at the moment. π
That’s a shame, Cras. All brats could use a bedtime. Send me your gf’s email address and I’ll be sure to suggest it. π
That’s a hell of a sweet voice she’s got on her. Sing like that and I don’t much care what you do π
I know, isn’t it yummy?! *resisting un-toppy urge to squeal :D* I love that husky quality it has. And I actually find this vid sexier than her original rendition (which also might explain why I’m still single!). π
Being a top means you can squeal whenever you want to, dammit! π
ROTFLMAO! Good point! π
“resisting un-toppy urge to squeal ”
more evidence of the inner brat
yep yep
Cutey? Be sure to tell your Top that you need a little attention. Focused on your backside. For a good long time. *smack!* π
That’ll teach her not to make wagers unless she’s 100% certain she’s going to win!
Just out of interest, if the brat had managed to complete the task, would there have been some sort of forfeit for the Top? It would only be fair.
Sandy, I can assure you that she WAS 100% certain she could do it in half an hour, otherwise she wouldn’t have offered to time it to prove it to me! *vbg* As I said in the post, brats tend to be wonderfully optimistic that way. π And just think, she was doing this with the knowledge she’d have to pay a forfeit. So she was rushing like heck. Can you imagine how long it would’ve taken normally?? *snort*
If she had completed it within the time she said she was capable of, her reward would’ve been my admiration and the fact that I gave her such helpful motivation. But no thanks were necessary. Just knowing I contributed to getting her chores done is enough for me. *gratified nod*
(Oh, btw, she said it quite ouchy by the end of the video. *bg*)
I think you’re exactly right, Sandy. There SHOULD have been a forfeit for the top. Who waited until the brat bet she could do the chores in half an hour and THEN blindsided her by declaring there would be a forfeit if she failed. The brat, of course, thought the forfeit would involve baking cookies for the top or something like that, not getting smacked for several stingy minutes to a song from *shudder* Sesame Street.
So really, the problem was that the brat was a poor negotiator. That will not happen again. Thank you, Sandy, for your contribution to Brats’ Rights! π
I must say on behalf of bottoms everywhere, That was SO NOT NICE!
Sooo… what you’re saying is that the poor brat rushed around and did her chores like a good girl …in record time I might add… and then you STILL did….did… THAT… to her.
I feel perfectly justified in voting that your ‘a meanie’….cute, maybe…but definitely a meanie!
Hi Micah, welcome to the blog! I’m sure Fizzy will be gratified to see another brat standing (“standing”…heheh π ) with her in solidarity over this issue, but I think I was VERY nice! I helped her get her chores done, and added to her motivation. Without my assistance, who knows how long it would’ve taken her? Besides, didn’t you read her post? She’s learned a thing or two about negotiation…..for next time. *eg*
To be honest, I’ve been a closet Alyx fan for quite some time. I have drooled over your character ‘Cassandra’ from the Cassandra/Nicky series to the point that I worried about getting electocuted by my computer.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my lily white butt for your stories.
You ROCK, boss lady!
heehee I agree wholeheartedly with both your posts, micah! so happy you delurked! π
boss lady is a good name for Alyx
Aw, that’s very sweet, thank you. π (I especially enjoyed the “boss lady” appellation! *LOL*)
Cassie is a big favorite among the brats. Probably because they all know she wouldn’t leave their butts unmarked for very long! π Really glad you like my stories, and appreciate that you took the time to let me know.
May I second Micah’s comments? π
BTW Alyx… that song is an earworm! I can’t stop singing it in my head… the past TWO DAYS!
Heheh….could be worse songs! Like Micah said below — Barney! *shudder*
Unfortunately, I’m having the same problem, Becka. I was at work today working on my computer when I realized I was humming. It took a moment to realize what the song was and had to laugh at myself. Since then, I’ve found myself humming again, whistling, even murmuring the words… Argh… It could be worse – it could have been the BARNEY theme song…. Oh I SO don’t want that one to start in my head…
I fricking love Feist!! She can smack me anytime she wants.
Way late to the poll but I’m voting creative. And bonus points for great musical taste. π
*LOL* Thanks, DisneyDyke! I still do enjoy that song. π And yes, there is something appealing about the thought of being over her lap, isn’t there? *g*
Tell you what? Let’s just tell her that. Hey, Feist, wanna redo the song? We’ve got an idea for the video!! lol.
You are truly awesome! You should win some kind of prize or be given a crown (or do you already have one?) You’re creativity in your blog. you’re stories, your kinlets, your message board is truly outstanding! I’ve never laughed so hard for so long! I know I’ll be humming that song tomorrow. For the sake of self preservation, I’m not going to show my gf this post. She’s a big fan of yours, but I don;t think she has seen this,because it hasn’t happened to me.:D
Hey Monica, thank you for the very kind words! π I like that song too, and that singer is pretty hot as well. *g* I think you should definitely show your gf this post! I’m sure the two of you could make beautiful music together….heheheheh. π
Lol. You sure ain’t picky when it comes down to songs, Alyx! All she does is count to four. π
If I was an evil top, we’d listen to “smack that”. π
Hmm….going to have to find out what song that is. Sounds promising! *g*
Don’t give her any ideas! (sighing) Poor Fizzy…
Oh ops… π³ But it’s a catchy tune… smack that all on the floor, smack that til you get sore, smack that give me some more, smack that ooooh! π
