You can't replace "evolution" with a phrase that means "puberty."

By the way, the headline reads: Georgia considers banning 'evolution'.

You take those quotes out and you've got yourself a headline (although maybe not a newsflash).

That's pretty fucking embarassing...

I'll hopefully have a better shot at this one. The one that I'm involved in at work, we picked blank squares where the numbers for each team were subsequently "randomly" assigned. Payouts are by quarter. The four squares I purchased are as follows:

NE 5, Car 2

NE 8, Car 8

NE 9, Car 0

NE 5, Car 5

Needless to say, I'm not expecting much.
Actually, I wouldn't be surprised to see a final score of New England 19, Carolina 0, or perhaps 19-10. The rest of yours are useless though.

Thoughts?
1. No
2. Yes, so long as the ho'ing can be done in view of the ex.

Exactly. That's the only combination I thought was being close to worth a damn.

"Ho Phase"

Originally posted by Shape Shifter
A couple of years ago, I decided late on a Saturday night that I wanted to be alone around other people. The closest and most convenient place for me to do this was local Sullivan's. Because it would close soon, I didn't change out of the long sleeved t-shirt and jeans I was wearing and just threw on my leather jacket. I was admittedly underdressed for the easy money set at Sullivan's, but I really didn't care. I got a table by myself, ordered a beer, and watched the replay of some football game on one of the tvs.

Before long, a reasonably attractive, reasonably intoxicated woman and asked if I was alone. She pointed over to a table of rich assholes I happened to know and announced, "I'm tired of hanging out with rich assholes." I replied, "What makes you think I'm not rich?" She asked to join me.

She soon started using such subtle lines as "Would you like to fuck me?" Though attractive, I really wasn't in the mood and tried to explain to her that I just wanted to be by myself, I had a girlfriend. "I don't care. I just want you to fuck me," she interrupted. I started to raise another objection when she leaned in and kissed me. It was a very nice kiss.

She excused herself to use the restroom and I reconsidered the course of my evening. The cocktail waitress came by to settle the tab. "You better be careful," she warned. This started my imagination racing as I wondered what kind of a woman could prompt a warning from a cocktail waitress. I decided that it wasn't worth the trouble, left the bar, and went home to some nice, safe internet porn.

I later learned from the rich assholes that she was just going through a ho phase after her divorce. Fucking cockblocking cocktail waitress.
If you had a girlfriend, wouldnt that be the reason you didnt fuck her?

and i thought guy swere always in the mood. and would you really sully yourself with a rich hating prole tramp? they are so self loathing.

I think that the 29 pool paid out a few times this year. Maybe seven or eight games out of however many they play a year.

Maybe he was not in the mood because of a recently completed sex marathon with the gf, and/or because his Viagra wore off and his health plan only gives him 5 pills per month?

Can anyone opine on how they feel about the 5 pill per month limit?

Yeah, in reliance of your earlier post, I'm going to go to a bar to watch the second and third period of the Leafs/Thrashers game. So I'll be looking for you on TV, though not entirely sure what to look for. Still . . . enjoy the game.

If you were with my mom you sure ain't the player you try and say here. That would have to be one sick hard-on, no offense. Beyond her babbling on endlessly, she's not exactly attractive. I'm mean, I never saw the surgical areas at all, so I'm just assuming, but shit.

Was it a grudge fuck? You still pissed my high school team beat your's senior year?

Not that he's an expert in any field, but Ashton Kucher says there's no way you should take a WHOLE PILL. That would be too much.

He's the actor who played Miles on Murphy Brown, before deciding to leave the show so that he didn't get type-cast. Nobody incurs a greater wrath from Mrs. Str8 than douchebag actors who fail to realize that they're so incredibly lucky to get a regular TV gig (aka a meal ticket for you and, in the case of Ms. Margulies, your children and your children's children for the rest of your freakin' lives) that they decide to leave for stupid-ass reasons like "exploring other acting opportunities."

Shelly Long gets only a partial hammer on that one, because she did have a movie gig lined up when she left Cheers, but financially I'm sure she'd have been better off staying on the show. I'm sure there are others though; were the PD-babe on Night Court slot changes voluntary or forced by the producers? Anyone have other examples?
