A quick definition of verge:

A verge is a special area around the king's court where the king's rules were enforced. It was named after the staff that the marshal carried. The lord steward and marshal of the king's household had special powers within this area, which was also known as the Court of Verge. The neighborhood of Whitehall in London, where government offices are located, is also sometimes called the verge. Additionally, a verge can refer to an uncertain amount of land or a stick used in a ceremony to admit someone as a tenant to an estate.

A more thorough explanation:

Verge is a historical term that has several meanings:

  1. The area within 12 miles of the place where the king held his court and within which the king's peace was enforced. This area was commonly referred to as being in the verge. The verge got its name from the staff (called a “verge”) that the marshal bore.
  2. The compass of the royal court, within which the lord steward and marshal of the king's household had special jurisdiction. This was also known as the Court of Verge.
  3. The neighborhood of Whitehall, the section of London in which British government offices have traditionally been located.
  4. An uncertain quantity of land from 15 to 30 acres.
  5. A stick or rod by which a person, after holding the stick and swearing fealty, is admitted as a tenant to a copyhold estate. This is also spelled virge.

For example, if someone committed a crime within the verge, they would be subject to the king's justice. The verge was also where the king's court had special authority. In addition, the neighborhood of Whitehall is sometimes referred to as the verge because it is where many government offices are located. Finally, a virge was a symbol of fealty and was used to admit someone as a tenant to an estate.

Feeling like sad drinking tonight, wife accidentally tossed out my truck keys and those are expensive as fuck to replace. The crappiest part is that the key chain had the "remove before flight" tab from my first aircraft's rocket pods overseas from 6 years ago. Then find out people fucked around and back dated reports at work making me look like a shit bag so I am working later tonight and missing range time which is my weekly relax/me time. Add in my sleep meds stopped working, so I am thinking vodka (so I stay skinny and hot) and pizza by the fireplace kind of friday.

That’ll do it
Question, how many of u would sleep on first date
babycat
14:57
honestly my answer is it depends
babycat
14:57
there has to be a very specific vibe to make me want to do that. not like a regular date
babycat
14:59
and sometimes you want to and you still don’t do ir
babycat
14:59
it
babycat
15:00
but I don’t use dating apps so all my first dates are with people I’ve already met in some context, which it sounds like is your situation too
Dkk
15:00
I could never imagine myself doing that on a first date.
Dkk
15:01
@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: hope things get better
babycat
15:01
@Dkk: what if it’s someone you’ve known for a long time but never dated?
Dkk
15:03
Maybe but things would have to go like perfectly. I could not imagine them going perfectly.
15:04
Sleeping on the first date just isn't my style, idk. I take things painfully slowly and much prefer to befriend and really get to know a girl first before doing any of that
Ok another question, what do u tell the ppl u sleeping with already that ur going on dates
Dkk
15:05
The bigger issue is if I sleep with them will I have the emotional connection to finish cus it is harder for me to finish if I do not know the person.
