At my wedding my mom and dad did body shots off his mom and dad every time anyone tipped the bartender.

I will change my opinion on this issue only when people devise some new signal at weddings to force the newlyweds to perform far more elaborate sexual acts for the guests.
Actually, it's usually confirmation that some other boor is prattling on being obnoxious, often kvetching endlessly in a know-it-all fashion about how to do or not do a wedding, and a good way to cut that boor short.

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.

Penske, take what lessons you will.

Video game designers are starting to catch on to a phenomenon known to robotics designers since 1978 --- that there is an "uncanny valley" in human emotional response to artificial anthropomorphic figures, such that creations with 10% apparent human characteristics (say, your dog) get more-humanized in our perceptions, while things with 99% apparent human characteristics (say, Not Me) get de-humanized in our perceptions. This Slate article explains why movie, television and game designers should be careful about sophisticated CGI characters: your Roomba is "cute" but Haley Joel Osment is "creepy."

Sadly, this means I probably shouldn't go forward with my project to create CGI pornos featuring the chick I had a crush on in 8th grade.

Agreed. I didn't say the wedding is unssexy. I said the "grandchildren speech" is unsexy. A well designed wedding, like any other alcohol fueld get together involving members of opposite sexes, is a a great place to hook up.

However, the "I can't wait for grandchildren" speech is the most unsexual thing anyone can possibly hear. The speaker is cock blocking every single male in the room, unless watching old people act pathetic gets you hot and bothered. I know I get randy as a spring rooster when I hear a 65 year old man toast his son's copulating with the lad's new bride in front of a room full of people.

My wife and I told friends in advance that we expected no glass-ringing. That's fucking obnoxious. Its like one guy has the cell phone of all guests and decides to call them all simultaneously. If I'm talking to someone across the room, I don't want to be expected to shut up because some berr drunk cousin of the groom with a spiked mullet decides he wants to make the bride and groom kiss. Tell Cletus to go hit the PPV or kiss his sister.

Uncool. That's really unfair to the Paigow. You can't judge her on the Slave fiasco. I hear he was suffering from whiskey dick. No offence.

Hey, you're not supposed to post on insider information. But yes, she'll be there (i'm not sure about the porta potties) as well as the yahoo girl (former Miss Venus Swimwear NY, which has got to be worse than being an International Male model).

what in the hell are you talking about. I merely question Less's ability to satisfy any woman. I hear not many go back for seconds.
