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

Study Reveals Why Monkeys Shout During Sex

Female monkeys may shout during sex to help their male partners climax, research now reveals.

Without these yells, male Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) almost never ejaculated, scientists found.

Female monkeys often utter loud, distinctive calls before, during or after sex. Their exact function, if any, has remained heavily debated.

Is cornbread naturally sweet from the corn, or is a sweetener typically added?

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

Is cornbread naturally sweet from the corn, or is a sweetener typically added?

Depends on the recipe. I've seen everything from no sweetener to cake-sweet (ick). Typically, yankee-assed cornbreads are more heavily sweetened than the southern kind, and any with added savory ingredients (chiles, bacon, cheese...) will have less sugar than they might otherwise.

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

Does anyone know what the contagious time frame is for a cold? Am I right in remembering that it's before symptoms and during the first few days?

Last doctor I asked said that while you can still spray wet stuff, you're of the ick.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Happy Holidays to you, too. Fuckcake.
I want this on a t-shirt.

ND, now I know what to get your for X-mass. It sounds just like you.

I've been reading Will the Vampire People Please Leave the Lobby during hall duty during lunch. Students have remarked, "Cool," adults cross to the other side of the hall, roll eyes and mumble remarks like "crazy Drama teacher." Draconian Dictator Principal asked if I thought it was appropriate material to have at school, simply based on the title...HA! I gave him the "hairy eyeball"

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Last doctor I asked said that while you can still spray wet stuff, you're of the ick.

Damn. I can postpone travel by a day to try and spare the family, but I'm sure I'll have a lingering cough.

Electronically speaking, the eTime Digital USB Home Pen Endoscope Camera Thing is just a webcam

Skype just got potentially ickier.

If the duration of the event is anything like what it is among chimpanzees, I can't imagine the females having enough time to get fed up and wish it were over with.
