Just pay separate shipping and handling. • |

Saying "Wow this is really good" while eating a dish you hate is substantively different from simply politely avoiding eating that which you hate. I was at a wine tasting party with friends years and I went in the kitchen and poured myself a glass of a white Bordeaux which upon first sip was YUCK to me. I figured maybe I had to give it another couple of sips, but after 2 or 3 and no improvement, I politely and quietly got up, went back in the kitchen and poured that foul glass of crap down the drain and got myself a glass of Cabernet and rejoined the party in the living room. No need to publically exclaim "Man this white Bordeaux sucks!" Someone had brought that Bordeaux and I didn't want to make anyone feel bad. I just didn't like it. Maybe others did, I dunno. Not my problem, there were other wines there I loved! Maybe you could have picked the offending strips of squash out and eaten around them! Or did the presence of the squash infuse it's vile squash-ness into everything else in the lasagna? I swear Bryan! More black and white/all or nothing thinking on your part. John Kuthe... |

Viewing the picture inspired the poster because it stimulated him to perform the unusual activity of hanging it where it would seldom be seen. (Usually, one would hang a picture where it would often be seen.) Check your dictionary: World English Dictionary inspiration (ˌɪnspɪˈreɪʃən) [Click for IPA pronunciation guide] €” n 1. stimulation or arousal of the mind, feelings, etc, to special or unusual activity or creativity |

Oh boy! My name in lights - goodie! You caught me man, I'm a liar. In my defense, it's my awesome opinion that because we have the power of language, we're not tied to thinking in pictures and what we can only see with our eyes. This gives us the power to create an alternative reality and so our ability to lie is intrinsic to our species. It's what makes us special. This is what allows use to live in society smoothly. Folks that don't understand how this works tend to smugly consider themselves as "brave and true" and "brutally honest." Most others consider them to be "socially inept" and "rude." :-) |

Most others consider them to be > "socially inept" and "rude." :-) Hmmm, I always thought that what made us humans special was oral sex. I'm serious. I think that other species use deception of each other to some extent. It is certainly part of the human condition, but I see it as more of a vice than a virtue. I find honesty far more satisfying, and folks who know me well know that my compliments have meaning. --Bryan, BORN TO EAT PUSSY http://www.flickr.com/photos/1552229...in/photostream |

You could be right. There's animals that seem obsessed with sex but for the most part, humans spend a lot of time in the persuit of sex apart from for purposes of reproduction. Most animals do not. I can't say if your compliments have meaning - most people would have said the same of Bernie Madoff. |

> > --Bryan, BORN TO EAT PUSSY You're right that oral seems to be the hottest new sex trend in young folks but it could be the reason that HPV is the most common STD and for the alarming rise in cancers of the head and throat in males. Oral sex is so hot that it's recommended that males 11 to 12 get vaccinated for HPV. Yummy! |
