ORIGINAL: Twoshoes <snipped part about Snape - get it? Snip-Snape...... oh, never mind> I want to be domly-like but funny. Can you please provide a TV-version role-model of a dom who is: not handsome, somewhat charming and quite funny. How 'bout Phil Silvers - as the lead in "You'll Never Get Rich." (TV - 1955-59) The name of the show is the start of a song title, which in full, is: "You'll Never Get Rich In The Army." SIDEBAR: Lance was taught the words to this song early in his life, because his Dad served in both WWII and the Korean "Conflict." Sgt. Bilko (Silvers' character) always got his men to do what he told them to. From Wikipedia - about the plot of the show: The sergeant's attitude toward his men has been described thus: "They were his men and if anyone was going to take them, it was going to be him and only him." Sounds pretty damn Domly to me. The "take them" refers to scams, so I caution you thusly: Careful, Sgt.Bilko has some characteristics you do NOT want to emulate. However, that's what role models are for. YOU must pick-n-choose, not make a carbon-copy!!! The "military model" worked/works well for the "Old Guard" Leathermen.... supposedly that was the "blossoming" of the modern era - WWII got 'em together and "Once they've seen Gay Paree, they'll never go back to the farm." You might check-out other military comedies for ideas. Over-blown comedy - NO, but something with a drier sense of humor. When I teach BDSM-101, I start with a definition. "There's many ways, using many words, but I especially like the defition of BDSM as serious fun." Yep. We'd best be serious about the weird-ass WIITWD, but if nobody is having fun, why bother?
