BWAH!

Because books.

The poor Swedes. Somewhere some of their ears are burning.

And they're thinking it feels pretty damn good.

I am crying at my desk now. Especially since there is this stupid jingle on an ad (Roomstore? ) that goes "get your ___ on!" And now I'm hearing it as "get your bork on!" and oh dear oh dear....why ?

Compassionately intolerant

I've heard the reason that homely guys are used in porn is because they use whoever has the ability to get it up on command and fuck all day for the multiple takes, and that's just a limited pool of guys to start with.

Seemore Butts (sp) confirmed this on his 'reality' show. Apparently the male go-now/go-allnighters are few and far between. Huh...so all those guys who have tried to woo me with their prowess in this regard were...you mean they were...lying??

Shocked! I'm shocked I tell you?

Just as shocked as I am that most women don't really want that type anyway, what with the chafing, etc.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

In Charles Stross' Accelerando, society is at a point where the risk of STDs is such that most young people have stopped practicing the kinds of sex where fluids are exchanged. The protagonist, who is old enough to remember missionary-style penetration, is considered extremely kinky because he'd rather just fuck than be tied up and whipped.

I think "pathology" is the wrong term, however -- the definition of kink is going to come from how mainstream society defines "vanilla" somewhat regardless of how specific individual preferences come about.

I'm 1/4 Swedish. My lobes are burning.

And they're thinking it feels pretty damn good.

AIFG!

I saw this posted at a political blog--earlier this week, a group of left-wing bloggers met with a very prominent Dem politician. Can you identify who the pol was by this description of their meal?

Southern-style baked chicken ... spinach with a little ham hock, baked sweet potato fries, yummy cornbread, salad and fruit. And for dessert, we had red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting.

Ann, that's a ferret.

It's like going to Capitol Hill and being shocked by all the old white men in bad suits.

Hey! I resemble that remark! Or at least I would if I wore suits.

They seem so darned wholesome about it. Not nearly repressed enought to build up a serious kink.

I suspect the Swedes are at least as kinky as the next ethnic group. Just more matter of fact about expressing it.

I've heard the reason that homely guys are used in porn is because they use whoever has the ability to get it up on command and fuck all day for the multiple takes, and that's just a limited pool of guys to start with.

But then there's gay porn. Where, if a guy's homely, he'd better have some compensating qualities.

I can think of three possibilities. I'll go with the obvious, Bill Clinton.

Dingdingding! We have a winner! I thought it was the perfect Clinton meal; the writer said that the chicken was baked due to his heart issues.

On the PR Fashion Week images: I'm sad to say I was disappointed by Michael's collection, although a few of the dresses were gorgeous. Uli and Jeffrey also had a couple interesting pieces. Overall, I liked Laura the best, but something other than black and beige might have been nice.
