Might be worth seeing if you can find a site on Chinese mythology, can't remember if they had phoenixes as well as dragons but there might be some ideas there

pretty is such a mediocre word, like nice (I always hated it when a girl said I was nice)
why settle for pretty or nice when you can be you smiley - smiley

Are you saying I'm not pretty or nice smiley - wah
sorry that was my inner girl smiley - winkeyesmiley - laugh

I know exactly what you mean...I've never been the kind of person to do things by halves...as a result people either love me, hate me or fear me smiley - winkeyesmiley - rofl

Even my mother thinks you have a lovely smile smiley - smiley
Pretty or nice are things you call people when you don't have a strong opinion and are being polite

Or sometimes all of them at once smiley - winkeye

I suppose it depends on how you say it...I say "pretty" a bit...but it tends to be more of a "mmmm....preeeeetttty...." smiley - bigeyessmiley - laugh

I suppose pretty is more of a compliment than nice
If a girl says to you you're nice you know the next line is going to be but I think of you more as a friend
Not quite as devastating now but 20 years ago smiley - wah
Just goes to prove the shallowness of your average male adolescent I suppose (well this 1 anyway)
