Guess they're on a pretty shitty version of it these days.

Have to say Voeckler's been pretty impressive for an unknown. For a frenchman, he doesn't give up easy. I suppose the German surname explains it . . .

I can't believe that he was dropped 6 times in the last mountain stage, but powered his way back up each time. That's impressive.

'Splain. I was just trying to make him more comfortable! It seems as though that wouldn't be too pleasant to have it flopping around -- but what do I know?

You have to trust the guys on this one. A boy 7 or 8 or more doesn't want to talking about his dick to his mom.

She even gave bad fashion advice. All kids playing basketball now are wearing boxers and shorts hung low on the boxers.

First, let me say that I'm going to let the atrocious grammar of your second sentence slide...

Now; down to business:

1. He's less than 7.

2. I let him wear what he wanted (I didn't insist he wear the snug undies) -- actually, he asked for my help in turning over the waistband of his underwear so that it wouldn't hang below his shorts. I think at his age, kids still laugh at the sight of underwear. What do I know from fashion?

I'll help you with fashion, you help me with grammar. Deal?

*"Elvis Costello" for those that aren't PLF

I thought of you this weekend, too, when I saw Fahrenheit 9/11. Despite the oppressive heat (you called it "sultry"), there was quiet a line outside the Landmark River Oaks for the 9:40 show. You joked that MM would soon be lighting cigars with hundys at the Hotel Du Cap planning his next movie, "Why I Really, Really Like W's Very Fair To All Americans Tax Policy." You were dressed in a tight t-shirt that clung to you through a mixture of humidity, perspiration, and your rapidly expanding girth that shook when you laughed at your own joke.

I was reminded of you again when I returned from the concession stand and found psuedoslave sitting in the chair right next to mine. His arms spilled over the armrests and dangled his sandaled feet over the chair in front of him, presumably to the delight of the audience members on either side. While jockeying with him for armrest space, I heard his date mention the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Psuedoslave ws not familliar with it. The date explained that it was the movie where audience members participated by throwing toast and rice and stuff, Psuedoslave was nonplussed, remarking, "I don't understand why you can't just sit there and watch it. So is it a horror flick or what?" Before F9/11 began, he helpfully reminded everyone that the movie would only be showing bad stuff about Bush.

After the movie I went grocery shopping. Funny thing about the produce department. Were you not feeling well?

Of course. It was an accident. You and sb are roughly the same level of stupid.

Yeah. You got me. All of these mommy issues have turned me into someone who can spot morons at a glance.

Originally posted by mmm3587 Take it easy. Why are you such a one-trick-pony with the "I fucked your mother" shit? That's been weak since tenth grade. Help a brother out and get a better slam.

I never said "I fucked your mother." I said, "The bitch doesn't learn."

For future reference, putting Adu in your avatar and saying shit like "help a brother out" won't change you from whiny, little, spoiled brat to the voice of the people.

You accidentally see my post again?

Talking to you is like playing chess with a mental patient. You start off promising, but then you start making horsey sounds and replacing pieces with cheese and staples and declaring victory.

The person who decides the rules wins the game. That piece of cheese kicked the shit out of your rook.

I have a friend who is a performance artist who ends up hanging by meathooks in nearly all of his pieces. He also sticks these really cool looking spears in his back in an intricate pattern that make him look like he has wings. His troupe is somewhat distrubing to watch, but certainly is interesting.

I've seen these sort of performers a couple of times now. The first time they were pulling a bus using the hooks embedded in their backs during an outdoor festival (no, it wasn't SS - the festival was not ACL) and the second time they were swinging from the rafters of a music venue along with a pretty heavy local band. They would actually get up on the speakers and swing off by the hooks in their backs. Maybe it is performance art, but it sure ain't my bag. Hard to do anything but stand there and shudder.

Has anyone (here) had a conversation with these people? What motivates the self mutilation?

I've never understood the piercing thing. I suppose I can see the "fuck you to the world" aspects of things like nose rings and tongue studs--a sort-of countercultural statement. But that doesn't really explain piercings that can't be seen (scrotal piercings, anyone), does it?

And now full-on meat hooks? Is it performance art when the poor in India gouge out their eyes to gain sympathy from would-be coin donors?

When SS first started posting on infirm, everyone thought he was brain damaged. It wasn't until later that we learned he was "gifted".

I have a feeling the guy with the scrotal piercing finds a way to include the fact that he has one in almost every single conversation. Kind of how people with tongue piercings are ALWAYS sticking out their tongues to show you.

I have a friend who has a tongue stud and he carries it perfectly. He's an accountant, and the only time I've ever seen it is when I've asked to see it. It's so discreet I sometimes wonder why he has it at all.

I could be wrong, but I would guess that there is some sex-based reason behind the non-visible piercings. And the tongue ones.

Speaking of sex, I like this picture of Sandra Bullock:
