Where is toy boat fetish on this new map? (i.e location - top left or whatever plus classification). Thanks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do not think the iced coffee I got at lunch was decaf.

But was it free? It's free Dunkin Donuts day!

Speaking of free, I am totally getting a free chicken sandwich at McD's on my way home, assuming it's not total chaos.

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

All right. The Boy's theory about the toy boat fetish is this: lots of fetishes (some would say *all* fetishes, but I'm not wiling to make such an absolute statement) develop in childhood. The toy boat one may have arisen when a kid was playing with his toy boat at a lake/pond/fountain, and the boat got away from him, but was retrieved by a woman, who returned it, and sexual feelings ensued.

I neither endorse nor decry this theory; I'm just passing it along.

Is that regarding the toy boat fetish theory? If so, I expect something like that has happened to more than one kid, ever, in the history of kids having toy boats.

Do ya' all know that Yoko Ono has a song about a toy boat?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I always thought the kid played with the boat in the bath, and the nakedness/toy boat/good feeling thing all got connected.

ETA: I didn't always think about this, of course, but, you know, since I heard about it here.
