ita's "this page" link is what we might call work-unsafe. In case anyone was wondering.
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No way I'm having sex with the scary plastic-headed king, no matter how many orgasms.
No! It's not him. Can't be. It's probably him. It's like therapy, see?

Is this question making sense to anyone else?
It is to me. I always thought multiple orgasms meant one right after the other, without extra stimulation or whatnot in between each one.

"Scrump" is archaic slang for "the sexual act." Ben Franklin referred to prostitutes as "scrumpets."
Mmm... hot buttered prostitutes.

Maybe they're like porn. If you know what I mean.

"Most Orgasms: 134 in one hour for a woman - 16 for a man." Comment fully unnecessary.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
a larger number may be able to experience this with the proper stimulation (such as a vibrator) and frame of mind.
I think I can, I think I can?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Also, -t, the book is as much DFW as it is mathematical history (which is part of what made me love it so much). There's plenty of room for another one that's not Foster Wallace-y! Just look at how many books have been published about zero.
Yeah, but "I decided I didn't need to finish my thesis because DFW wrote the book on infinity" sounds much better than "I got distracted by earning enough to pay my bills and lost all my research during the Great Purge of '98".
Though who knows, maybe reading his will inspire me to start on my own again.

They have cheesy production values and a bad soundtrack?

Also, what's with the "is there really a vaginal orgasm" debate? I've never understood this. It seems like, if you can find one woman to stand up and say, yup, I've had one, the debate's over.
