So, last night B and I are deep into our newest television fling, Rescue Me…
Love these boys.
…and the firemen are sitting around having an old-fashioned “We are men! Measure my penis!” shoot-the-shit kinda conversation, when one of them says this:
“That’s the thing with older vs. younger women. Older women are more skilled, but they’ve done it so many times, it’s mechanical for them. Younger women may come up short in the talent department, but they’re so eager to please.”
*contemplative pause*
Another fireman responds:
“If only there was a way to combine the two, to find a happy medium.”
First fireman:
“Oh, there is… 26, my friends. 26? Is the sweet spot.”
At which point I looked over to B, and yell
“HEYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”
because whoa!, I am 26, so that’s pretty awesome, right? Lucky man!
And my darling dear, he eyes me carefully, and he says…
“So, how many months you got left?”
P.S. Obviously this is a rather ridiculous notion. I just thought it was awesome because they said 26 and hey, it’s kind of an obscure age. We don’t get much else.
Also, excuse to post a picture of hot firemen? Yes and also please.
Yes, this is an ad. Mama is poor, yo:

I’m ignoring my 26th birthday. If I pretend it didn’t happen, that means it didn’t, right? That’s how math works I think. This aaaalmost makes me ok with it, but I’m not having sex anyway, so eh.
That show is me and my hubby addiction too. And I remember that episode like it was yesterday.
Ah, the sweet spot. Wait, what?
I’m turning 28 this year. I’ve peaked!
Sounds like my best is about to come…5 years from now!
LMAO I’m only 23, so I guess I still suck huh?
I am such an old broad.
Hey wtf I typed livitluvit.co on accident and google came up…
Then some youtube video shows up about a message to LiLu from “Wabert.” Who the hell is that guy, it was hilarious. Wabert!
I am the wet spot. Coo coo ka choo.
I’m 22, I’ve four years of being eager left and then I’m over Fireman Hill, apparently!
I heard somewhere that men reach their sexual peak at 18! And women usually around 30. I’d much rather be a woman and peak at 30 than be a man and peak when I’m still a child.
I still have 2 yrs till I reach the “sweet spot.” Does that mean I suck? I think the sweet spot should be from 24 to 26. Your experience enough with the alcohol so you don’t go overboard, but you’re not an old lady yet. =p
C and I just started watching rescue me on netflix on sunday. i’m in love with this show, even though the ladies are bitches and the guys well are hysterically vulgar. and franco….mmmmmmmm
Every age in the 20s needs something – now you’ve got the sweet spot. Live it up! (At least for the next few months…)
When I first glanced at the title of this post I thought it read: “I am the WET spot”.
I love Rescue Me.
Not in a gay way.
Actually…that’s not true.
I’m going to leave now.
Damnit. It’s the 1 month anniversary of my 27th birthday today. I’m screwed!
Ugh, I’m going to be 27 in 3 months. Not looking forward to that.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE that show….I heard that the series is going to end in 2011 (around Sept.11) and that makes me super sad.
Obviously, I’m way past my prime. But in my defense, I don’t think I’ve had enough sex for a 37 year old. So, I may still be sweet.
this show is amazing. The BF got me into it two season ago – hilarious writing
mmhmm. all good.
26 was my most favorite year ever. Now that I’m 38 (gah), my spot is all sour. Oh well, the multiple orgasms make up for it, I suppose.
i shall join you in your 26 year old HEYOOO! i know, like with our 27th birthdays coming up, what is there to look forward to? no more exciting age milestones left.
26 may be the sweet spot for dudes, but as an.. ahem.. OLDER LADY who will be turning 30 in a few short months? dude. 26 is when i STARTED having awesome sex. they are not kidding about women’s sexual peak being in their late 20s, is what i’m saying.
Now, I feel like I just wasted my “sweet spot” year.
Can I go back to being 26?
So, that’s what I can look forward to when I turn 26? Cause I’m definitely not looking forward to still being a ‘student’ at 26!
And I’m intrigued exactly which firemen you think you are hot in that photo? It’s definitely not all of them, my dear.
HELL YEAH 26! Booyah. I got another 4 months left in me.
It’s true. 26 doesn’t get much appreciation.
I’m about to turn 27, so I’m hoping I’ll get more appreciation for THAT number..and not just the appreciation for being one year closer to thirty…
Eh, I don’t think it’s so obscure a notion. There is somethign special about the mid-to-late twenties fo sho.
Personally. I’ll take the guy in the middle with the ‘stache. HOT.
I’d be lucky if I were even getting any at this point. I am a beached whale and sex is the last thing on my mind. Poor Wade. I’ll have to make it up to him after Nugget is born and I’m healed up. Maybe I’ll ask the doc for an extra stitch.
Haha! I know, inappropriate!
@Kellie, -I did that. While getting stitched
hahaha.
thanks for sharing. now i know i gots one more month of being in the sweet spot.
Man: Now that you’ve turned 40, maybe I’ll trade you in on two 20s.
Woman: You’re not wired for 220.
I’ll go now.
Wait, Rescue Me still comes on? I really do need to watch TV more often.
This had me wonder where the sweet spot for guys is and then I remembered that sexual peak at 18 and that it’s pretty much downhill from here.
Fuck.
One of my favorite shows ever. So many crazy yet brilliant scenarios come out of that “hot firefighter talk.”
this reminds me a conversation I had recently with my husband where he pointed out that I’m 3 years away from my “expiration date” (I’m 27.)
Mmmm, Hell-o there gorgeous firemen!
Oh fuck I missed my prime! Moving on the mechanical 28 here soon!
Actually, women apparently hit their sexual peak at 38.
So B really has it coming to him in 12 years.
Which is going to suck for you cuz we men hit our peak at 18, apparently.
Damnit, I should have enjoyed 2007 more!
I’m SO Glad you love this show. It’s been one of my favorites for years, much to the surprise of many of my friends. But seriously, hot firemen + intriguing plot + a bit of comedy + a whole lot of NYC? What’s NOT to love? I’m so ready for the next season to start (next week? I can’t remember.)
Also, I call dibs on Franco. I’m 26 so clearly we’d be a perfect match for the next few months
And I may or may not look at each firehouse I pass and wonder if there’s a Franco look alike working there…
Oh I don’t know… 26? The sweet spot? Let’s see, for me, that was, awe shit, that was 7 years ago, and since then I’ve learned many many many good things in the nooky department. And I’m still very eager to please.
It’s the hubs who puts it on auto drive…
Maybe it’s not the woman at all, but actually the men. They are nice to look at as long as we don’t let them open their faces…. Whoops. I mean, um…I did not just say that.
25….26….yeah, it’s pretty freaking sweet. Talking with my 21 year old….”friend”… and he agrees.
Just sayin’
I’m not going to lie, my big two-six looming in front of me (just over a month) was freaking me out a bit. I’m leaving the mid-twenties and roaring into late-twenties. Then come the early thirties! Then the forty-somethings! Aaaahhhhhhhh!
Of course, I also realize even worrying about this is insane. All the Botox in the world won’t change my birth certificate.
Mid-to-late-twenties FTW!
I suppose I’ve got a bit more time to learn!
Rescu Me is so my new fave show. And I fully plan on getting married to Franco.
So I have about 6 months left until I reach my sexual peak?!
This must be why Rescue Me is basically the only show on the air that I do not watch.
oh, the boys are so funny. here’s a hint, guys: if it’s mechanical, it’s because she’s sick of you. i’m well past 26, but i am nowhere near my peak. i just care enough about impressing him that i’m more than eager to show him everything i’ve got. and he notices.
The sweet spot is totally 18. When a girl’s 18 then you can do whatever you want to her and not get arrested.
In every state.
I’ve never heard of this show but hot firemen? I’m in!
Mmm, thank you for brightening my Tuesday with those photos. Zummy.
HA! I’ve heard this show rocks… need to start watching it!
I’m only 26 for a few more months! I need to embrace this!
I’ve only got 3 months left to be the sweet spot!! That’s it, I’m having sex tonight.
Now to find a guy…
Lucky for me I`m going to be 26 for the next couple of years. Perhaps in three years I will be 27.
Damn. Too bad I didn’t know this when I was 26, I could’ve had many more dates
How did all my internet friends get so much younger than me?
Assholes.
Haven’t seen the show, but now I totally want to. My poor boyfriend…he met me at 25 and now I’m 29. At least he got me during my “sweet spot” age
http://www.firednfabulous.com/
I might have to start watching that show… I do love firefighters…
If 26 is the sweet spot, then I am already over the hill. 29 is seeming so old to me!
I love Rescue Me. Seriously, I pretty much watch it because of the hotties and because I feel like I’ve gotten inside the heads of boys. I didn’t realize a new season has begun! I must watch this online at once.
If you are the sweet spot for hot firemen then I believe B needs to give you a kitchen pass for that… I mean seriously – how many months DO you have left?
haha thats pretty awesome.
never seen the show, but i would be hype too if someone made reference to 33 being the seasoned and percolating age of ‘doing it’.
pretty sure that made absolutely no sense
i so would have been saying heyooooo to that one. woo 26. i mean it’s awesome. and next season they’ll be saying 27 so it’s all good.
men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well.. i’ll be 26 next month- maybe this is something that should make me less sad about leaving 25 behind!!
I think I’m with my girl Alice…30 is pretty effin sweet. Young enough to still be girlish, but “experienced” enough to get away with vague cougar-ism. NIIIIIICE.
Haha! That is awesome. I’m 26 myself & you’re right, we get nothing! Well, except for, “SHIT, I’M REALLY CLOSE TO 30!”.
Oh to be 26 again…. *sigh* Sadly, I will be 36 this year. Feh.
I absolutely love Rescue Me. Have you made it to the episode with the spank bank. Seriously, you will die laughing.
Us 26 year olds gotta hold onto something
That is a fav for me – I have been watching it since the first episode. I just read Dennis Leary’s new book in fact ( good read). I enjoy the site & am a new fan.Please stop by my site & join it if you enjoy it. Thanks
Mr Monkey
I have never seen that show but I do have to say I have some seriously great sex and it has all happened in my forties! Something about being older and freer. Although, I had young children in my twenties and just finished raising them so maybe that is it! (LOL)
So, all you 20 somethings that are commenting, bet your parents are having better sex than you right now!!!!
In the next post- hot SHIRTLESS firemen.
never got into that show not sure why.
also I vocalized that heyoooooo and it is like 6:3o am and I’m pretty sure my neighbors hate me
well more now.
Lol, hilarious! I love relating to random stuff in movies or on TV!!
And that whole 26 Theory is bollox!! It’s Aaaalllll about older women! Go Cougars, rrrrrrrrrarrrrr!
(I’m bigging cougars up for self-preservation in case I’m sad and lonely at 4o-plus and need a toyboy =D …now that’s what I call forward planning, lol!)
THIS IS AWESOME. I am also 26. heyooooo.
PS thanks for the insight on my blog re: terrible vs good service at establishments owned by the same peeps!! interesting stuff….
Shit. I am not 26. Maybe I could be called the “Sweet, but left out in the sun just a little bit too long, but still ok to eat” spot?? Just an idea.
If only I had known when I was 26 men were probably leering at me, desperate for my attention. Instead I was stuck with a deadbeat a-hole who left me for a small Asian boy. Long story.
HANG ON A MINUTE!!!! Or as Martin Luther would say “Ein minuten bitte!!” (Eddie Izzard ladies and gentlemen.)
That means I’m WAY past the sweet spot. BUT! I have a contrary theory. Maybe the older women *AHEM* me *AHEM* actually expect a guy to know what he’s doing. And we are less inclined to fake it. So they guy actually has to perform. Hmmmmmm….. Could be???
BWAH HA HA HA HA!!!!!
Past the sweet spot and loving it.
I’m 26 as well and we really don’t get anything. All the fun shit is over and all we have to look forward to is….30. Woo to the mf’in hoo on that one. So yay! 26!
