Huh. So it really is racing porn to me. And everyone thought I was exaggerating at least a little.
I feel pretty confident that no one here thought you were exaggerating it. (esp Trudes)
Harmony: Somebody remembered to pick me up the sweetest unicorn. Guess someone was feeling guilty for standing me up in tenth grade. Brad: What? Had to get her something. She sired me. Peaches: Sire-whipped.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I can't even.
Dylan claims any movie featuring a good-looking actor in period costume is a chick flick, no matter how testosterone-laden the storyline is. The Sharpe movies? Total chick flicks. It took some persuading to get him to see Master & Commander with me because that's such a classic Susan chick flick set-up.
There's a difference between woobifying action heroes and chick flix.

Busted!

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I think, actually, that this is the most insulting part of the "female porn" article:
The result of exposure to this kind of fairy tale is obvious, at least to us. When a single woman leaves a steamy chick flick only to return home alone to her cats and tub of ice cream, a part of her breaks—the heart part. And she feels more alone than ever.
Embrace the stereotype of the lonely single woman with her cats and her Ben & Jerry's!
My heart doesn't break when I come home from a chick flick, because I know how to separate fantasy from reality, and I'm not as simplistic as that article seems to think women are.

Silence means security silence means approval
You people are talking about porn on the same afternoon I invoked Potter Stewart's name in a discussion about web accessibility.
Not perfect synchronicity, as the porn discussion was two hours after the meeting I invoked Judge Stewart's name, but still.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We ask you, ladies, what else arouses a stronger emotion in you than that heart-fluttering chick flick? What else gets you to dream of the perfect man and pray to God that you will get one just like him?
The answer is clear -- I am no lady.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Film of a piker like you stuck on, well, a pike. THAT, my dear man, would even make my loins shudder.

Ah. "A Website of Focus on the Family." It all becomes clear. Meanwhile, you know what arouses an intense emotional reaction in me? Math. Don't tell James Dobson.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The answer is clear -- I am no lady.
So what kind of porn do you like?
What's your porn?
Hmmm, that would make a good game show. Probably already is one on some PKD or Ballardian universe.

I particularly like the part where spy or adventure novels don't set up unrealistic ideas about life.
