I took my first Queer Eye baby steps yesterday, by rubbing a CD along the edge of a table to tear the shrink wrap. It scratched the table all up. Thanks a fucking lot Kai. I'm sure I was using the wrong motion, or maybe the wrong type table.

Do you mean Jai? I haven't seen that tip, so I have no advice for the proper table type.

In other news, the National Enquirer is reporting that <gasp> Matt Lauer did coke a few times in the 80s, putting him in the company of our distinguished leader and every yuppie who had Gorden Gecco as a hero. NBC dismisses the rumor as lies (lies I tell you!). I dismiss it as non-noteworthy.

I think the statistics vary widely on this from study to study so perhaps there's no way to be sure. But anecdotally, I've never seen a high school boy with black eyes and tape on his nose unless he's been in a fist-fight. And I see a lot more women who suddenly look 'younger', 'rested', and 'like they've been really exercising' after a week of being 'out with the flu' than men.

I had an interesting conversation with a plastic surgeon last year about men versus women and plastic surgery. One of the things that he said was that in general, men are not as articulate about what they want out of surgery as women are. I could immediately point to the top five areas I'd have done if money, risk and a general sense of cheating were eliminated from the equation, and I could explain why I don't like them and what exactly I would want done with them. According to this plastic surgeon, it takes a little while for men to be able to articulate that.

Anyhow, I know quite a few men who've had plastic surgery. Most of them are gay. (And the 23 year old who got his abs sculpted was just lazy with a sugar daddy.)

Can anyone speak in general terms anymore w/out someone pointing out the obvious exception(s)?

Sure. But that's not what happened. He said "Women who get implants are a step away from strippers and prostitutes." Then he used strippers as examples of why we should support his theory.

Anatomically, the vulva and the labia would be at issue, not the vagina.

I'm pro TITS, but I think the majority of breast enlargement procedures are the equivalent of the dorky guy buying a Porsche...

You had me up to the first comma. And that's not because I drive a porsche, nttawwt.

I am touched by the strength of your heart for me. This post is just for you, Penske. I know that you smile at your desk each time you get a chance to see my flair-covered avatar. Enjoy.

Was I the only one who thought this guy was going to be the hero in that link?

Not that I'm doubting you, but cite please? I frankly find this a little surprising. I always figured average height was between 5'5" and 5'7", but maybe they just grow a little taller in the patch.

For me, there's something about my body I don't really like. I've always felt like that thing was just out of proportion and uncomfortable. As a result of that thing, I can't wear certain clothes, do certain activities, etc.

Translation: I can't wear my new bikini because of my huge penis.

Have the J-Fleck rumors run that dry? And Hillary too?

But, come on, you know there must be some great tales of Katie Couric's debauchery at UVa.

I thought it was 5'5" too, but I am happy to hear it is 5'3" cause I never could wear heels that would get me to 5'5". I have noticed that I don't feel like I am looking up at as many women now that I am wearing heels that get me to about 5'3" though.

Most men still tower over me. I have noticed by the way that over all attorneys (and drag queens) tend towards tall.

I have a friend (no, really! I do have friends, and the following requests advice for one of them) who is looking to exit gracefully and painlessly (or at least as painlessly as possible) from a quasi relationship with some dude.

They've been dating not so long (a couple of months?) and she's just not all that into him. Not unlike the situation presented here recently by another enquiring mind, the dude's birthday is this weekend and she had made plans to cook him birthday dinner. She's prepared to go through with this (the dinner thing), but thinks it's probably better to just call it off beforehand.

The question... (she acknowledges how junior-high-school this is, but whatever -- I told her I knew the perfect place to get the answer to junior-high-type questions) is, what's her "lead-in"? Just launch into "I don't want to date anymore?"

Board, don't fail me now!!!

"Not here to amuse you"

I suggest a new avatar, given the aforementioned quote.

"Am I a clown? Do I amoose you?"
