2. Well now that all depends

on who said it and in what context.

[MrScorpio]

6. Alright

Let's say that there's a safe word, other than no

7. Aha

If "no" isn't the safe word, "no" means yes.

[MrScorpio]

8. "No" should never be a safe word

Because that would take all the fun away

[miss_american_pie]

And why would one want to limit fun?

[MrScorpio]
