Loved and thought himself beloved,
From a glad kindness cannot take his eyes.

Nancyboy is a crude slang term for a homosexual male.

I'm thinking mr. toasty has issues...

I do not think that the C&F boards are the place for him to deal with them.

Slan,
D.
It can mean homosexual male, but can also simply mean effeminate. Always intended as a term of derision, it's usually used to try and stir up a fight.

It means "currently unemployed" (sound it out).

It means "currently unemployed" (sound it out) sez Brassblower.

Brass,
I managed to figure that bit out by myself it was the overall point that I have a problem with i.e. what is the point of this thread.

If i got it right, "toasty" is trying to communicate to us that he is a rude teenager.

Actually, there was a thread similar to this on one of the forums the other morning early, to which I responded. When I got home that evening the thread had magically disappeared.

It would seem that "toasty" is insisting that we all get started on the topic of nancyboys, which he/she either finds amusing, or repulsive, whatever.

How boring.

I'm off to practice.

Don't get your panties in a bunch, toasty.
