The Comet

In order to correctly perform the sex move "The Comet", participants have to engage in sex on a balcony above a pool. The male partner has to convince his female partner that it would be really sexy to have gasoline all over her body, and during orgasm, he proceeds to light the gasoline (and subsequentally her body) on fire and push her off the balcony into the pool, making her look like a comet on the way down.

Comet. kom-it Noun.
1. A person that passes through your life repeatedly who is intense and awesome, and when gone you are still in contact with that person in some way but they are not a continuous partner.

I have found there is a hole in the poly lexicon. The term "play partner" doesn't fit non-casual partners. Play sounds trite. Some of these relationships can span years and even decades. Some are very deep, with a combination of intimacy, friendship, admiration, and shared history. Poly circles use the term "play and pause" which also doesn't fit many of my "comets" as I don't pause. Many I stay in touch with daily or weekly.

Some comets come by every 18 months when the schedules line up or, to continue the metaphor, when the stars align. I have even heard some use the term partner-partner. As in, "they are a partner but not like a partner-partner." This is an example of that awkward lack of a term for someone who is somewhere between fully in your life at all times and a casual play play partner, that you like, but don’t have an ongoing connection with.

To comet a person (i.e. do the comet) means to fart in an isolated area but still near enough to people where you can walk amongst them and the tail end (or comet part of your fart) either still resonates or is still strong enough that they smell it, but the fact that it was you remains hidden because you did not pass wind directly in front of them; allowing you to deny it. The fact that it dissipates quickly also allows you to deny it since most farts stay in the area for a time. This technique should only be used someone you don't like.

A small icy body--usually only a few kilometers across--that orbits a star. Most comets orbit the Sun beyond the outermost planets in an enormous cloud known as the Oort cloud.
