Yeah, what a neat trick it would be if I could bring myself to climax just from thinking. Reminds me of the headset things from Total Recall Demolition Man. (The original, haven’t seen the remake so no idea if it’s in that one too.)

Edit: wrong movie

Woman here. I’ve had sexy dreams that led to me waking up while having a real orgasm, though I wasn’t touching myself or anything.

then I clean the seat

New fear/obsession unlocked.

Everyone just needs to make it a habit to close the lid before flushing.

And for those public toilets with auto-flush and no lid, I get around it by draping TP over the sensor while I do my business, flush it manually when I’m done and the door is open so I can quickly jump outside the stall.

While people associate sulfur with the odor from rotten eggs

I read this at first as “White people associate sulfur” and couldn’t believe a serious science article would say that. I need coffee…

So what did the driver look like?

Photos won’t convince people like that because they’ll just think it’s all fake. I suspect even if we all pitched in to buy them a trip into space, they still would think it was all fake – screens instead of windows, like an amusement park virtual reality ride.

I was one of those people and consider myself very lucky. My first puff was at 9 but I didn’t start regularly smoking until I was 14. In a third-world country where the laws, if they even existed, were hardly enforced, it was easy to buy smokes as a minor. It was normal, even.

I smoked through my teens and 20s and into my 30s. Then one day, I decided to quit because I knew it wasn’t healthy and I had seen pictures of smokers’ lungs. I didn’t experience any “jonesing” and didn’t need to replace the habit with gum or patches or anything. It might have helped that I worked from home at the time and was addicted to video games, so I was very motivated to stay at home. I turn 50 this year and haven’t smoked since.

Some people claim that speech is violence.

It’s Spanish Big Book propaganda.

I had completely forgotten about Ventrilo, Team Speak, and Mumble. This whole post is a blast from the past.

This is what I keep saying too. To believe that so many people would keep a secret is just insane. Like the conspiracy about the NFL being rigged. It’s not even just the number of people involved and the passage of time. With all the egos on any given team, there’s no way all the players, the coaches, and everybody else would roll over and throw a game just because that was "the plan"for that year.

My eyesight went to shit from sitting at a desk and staring at a monitor all day. I wonder if my eyesight would’ve remained perfect well into adulthood without computers.

I like to imagine this means “fixed that for thee.”

Absolutely.

Always reactive, never proactive. That’s humans for you!

Also for marathons. To work off all that soda.

Or the plants to die. Large shrubs can be expensive to replace.
