Bush-bashing playing cards have been removed from eBay, but an exec there says it’s nothing political. “Axis of Weasel” playing cards featuring George Bush and various members of his team who supported the war in Iraq were removed from the popular on-line auction site, and the artist says it happened after conservatives complained. But a spokesman for eBay tells The Scoop that the cards were a possible copyright infringement, using unauthorized images of people for profit. He wasn’t able to explain why the “Axis of Weasel” cards featuring anti-war celebs, such as Susan Sarandon and Michael Moore, were still posted. . . .

Okay, it's not about sex toys or dating hell but I just read this posting on Craig's List that I had to share since it made me laugh out loud. The topic of the day seems to be weird 1-night stand stories.

"So I am in FLa on vacation and I meet this smoking hot chick, we get along great, drink alot and hit the beach to fool around. We were rolling around getting pretty hot, and I started to finger her and play around. I wasn't sure why but she wouldn't let me screw her, but almost let me eat her out, almost. Anyway after quite a bit of that it got late, and we parted. I had to walk along way home and on the way I would put my fingers up to my nose to smell the remenants of her. I remember people looking at me strange, and when I got back to the hotel, the people at the desk were looking at me like I was some kind of freak. Well in the elevator a couple got off, and I started sniffing my fingers again, but then I noticed my arm was soaked in blood, and I had it on my chin and nose, I looked like I just murdered someone, God that was gross..."

Since ReTex has given me a book recommendation, I'll respond with a movie recommendation. Watched Laurel Canyon last night, with Frances McDormand. Absolutely superb.* I think this one went straight to video, which is sad. It included perhaps the sexiest scene in recent movie history, where the lead male and the hot supporting actress he's desperately trying not to sleep with (due to him being engaged to someone else) talk about their fantasies about each other........

*I was fairly well toasted last night, so YMMV.

Maybe I should have said it's not about MY dating hell...

Oh come on. This is like reading Penthouse forum...I can't believe this really happened to me....

YOu wouldn't notice something running down your arm? Really? How high would you have to be?

Of course, you don't have to worry about me because I will come with my cooler full of brewskies and sit in the corner and drink all night so as long as you have some nuts or pretzels I won't need the soup and salad (hell, I can bring my own peanuts -- I'll keep the shells in a semi-neat pile). When is it? Can I bring a date? How about my kid -- he won't be much trouble as long as he has somewhere to run around? Will there be a television in case it conflicts with a game I wanna watch? Underwear optional? Don't worry, I won't be a wallflower -- I will definitely let everyone there know that I am your good buddy!

You obviously missed my posts a few months back about telling my cousins that no kids will be allowed at the reception. I have a feeling that a group of FBers would add a lot of panache to this party and be much more fun than my family and motley assortment of friends.

Yes, lets pick this apart shall we.

One, she is bleeding and getting fingered so , no tampon. So either she has a pad on or nothing (which is unlikely in both instances). If I am wearing a diaper no way am I pulling my pants down or hiking my skirt up, for a stragner, on a beach. And if I have nothing on, no way am I just walking around with nothing, just leaking.

Second, blood feels different than juice- its stickier.

Third, I am all about sex on the rag- great for cramps- but I wouldnt except a guy to be fingering me for awhile when I am bleeding. And no way is he "almost" gonna go down on me.

FOurth, I dont go to third base with strangers while bleeding (or didnt back when I called it third base and these folks sound like kiddies)

Five, if he is smelling his fingers, blood and juice smell different. Just ask Debtslave.

Six, if blood is on his face, he feels it. Period. No pun.

And lastly, Sparklehrse, you thought this sotry was laugh out loud funny? I was squicked. What kind of perv are you?

P.S. Looks like everyone here was wrong and the three exes decided they couldn't trust Dana, unless you buy her whole, I asked them to vote me off thing. I think that Jun is a bigger threat than anyone at this point; she seems very manipulative away from the others but seems to have mostly avoided everyone's wrath.

I like the way that they just pretend that Scott never even happened. No mention of him at all, ever.

What the hell are you TALKING about? I said that you could take it to the bank that Dana wouldn't get a single vote. No respect, no respect at all.

The "no-Scott" thing is in keeping with Big Brother tradition. What was the name of the crazy guy who held the knife to Krista's throat, saying "would you mind if I killed you?" Was he "Justin" as well? Anyways, after he was gone, there was no trace that he'd ever been there.

I was this a couple weeks ago, and while Frances McDormand's performance was good, the movie itself was soooo fucking formulaic -- "rich, sheltered girl, exposure to ooooh 'sex, drugs, and rock n roll,' oooooh experimentation and participation, ooooh problems ensue, and some silly family dymanics, and the obligatory women = evil, while men = not quite so evil, blah blah blah and so on."

I spent most of the movie trying to remember in what I had seen the boyfriend b/c his acting was so annoying.

I think that TF remembered and was funning with you. See, I do have the ability to say something nice about TF.

First of all, I obviously have NO idea if this is true or not. The motivation people have to make up shit and post on the internet is baffling to me.

Second, how is this any grosser than reading about how you want to lure some random Texan into your office? Because it involves menstrual blood?

I was confused as to how his arm got coated in blood. Was it trickling down? Thinking it through now though, I don't really want to know. And the story fell apart for me with the sniffing the fingers thing - so he had his hand up by his face several times and never noticed there was blood on it? Whatever.

Yes. You are astute. Random one night stands with smoking hot chicks or guys = hot; random one night stands with blood all over your face and arm= not.

Much more relaxing when it's all grownups. Be prepared though--two of our closest friends stopped speaking to us (forever, apparently) when they invited their child to our wedding and we told them sorry, we didn't invite any kids and none can come. Sad, but as the choice and fault was theirs, we got over it.
