BigDuluth:...and then finally we can completely achieve the ultimate goal of breeding a generation of sexually frustrated violent people, unsure how or where to stick it or lick it.
billytea: It's true! There'll be an entire generation who keep trying to put it in when they should be shaking it all about. Oh, the humanity!

billytea , on a roll in Bitches : Kangaroos TiVo their young! In times of drought, they can hold onto a fertilised egg and pause its development until times are better. They lack the rewind function, though.
