Garage, basement, attic, all are good places. Explain it inspires you
as you (1) change the oil, (2) fold the laundry, (3) get down the
Christmas stuff.

eBay, man! It's super cheesy and I bet I can get a buck for it. Just
pay separate shipping and handling. •

Once you establish that you are a liar, no one should believe a single
thing
that spews from your maw.

In other words, lie.

There is a substantive difference between lying via omission and lying
via commission. 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.

Nay, tell the truth. 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

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." :-)

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.

I never much gave that much thought. 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.

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!
