The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Okay, that headline made the eyes bug out.

Almost copied and pasted it, but didn't know if it would be too much or too little misinformation.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

... and to think, I was already giggling at the use of "kerfuffle" in the link itself.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

While we're on the topic of penises, apparently Ricky Martin demurred at Barbara Walters' questioning his sexual orientation, but has shared this information:

“I love giving the golden shower,” he told Blender. “I’ve done it before in the shower. It’s like so sexy, you know, the temperature of your body and the shower water is very different.”

Interesting where different people's boundaries lie, huh?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

why do people want to even tell things like that? to everyone.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now for some reason I'm thinking that the odds of one enjoying golden showers are probably lower if one is colorblind.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

ita, that's so unfair and sneaky of you, just posting it like that. We know not to click on your links, but that wasn't even a link! It's just--Dear God, it's just out there, like... There are no words. Now I have to go fumigate my entire head.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I just got threatened by a...well, I'm not sure who she was. She called me and asked if I could help her with a problem. I explained that if it had to do with our business (she was calling from outside the company) that I couldn't help her, because I was in the IT department.

She complained that everyone else was hanging up on her, and she needed the name and number of our president. I told her I didn't have that information (it seemed less rude than telling her to fuck off and straighten out her expectations -- we're a 40,000 person company -- like she can get through to our president). She then complained and asked for our HR department's number. Which I don't have. I mean, I don't know any departmental phone numbers. I only call people. My assigned HR person, in this situation.

Woman starts ranting about reporting us to the BBB, and that she just couldn't believe I couldn't help her. I asked her where she got my number, and she said she was dialing at random. I told her to try the operator instead, and she asked for my name so she could report me too. So we can add to the number of employees here who hung up on her.

Long story short -- sorry about the pee thing, I have been punished.

Pretty damn good distraction from the question of his sexual orientation, though, huh?

VERY SNEAKY, MR. MARTIN.

Sales people will often pull all sorts of tricks in order to get a line (or a #) to a president, vice-president, etc. I bet that's what it was. Or else she wanted to make a complaint and was not going about it very intelligently.
