In the Svutlandia accent the words moron and mormon sound very similar. In fact, when the mormon missionaries first came to Svutlandia, the people of Svutlandia thought they were proud morons, as that was the only excuse for their knocking-on-every-door behavior.
Yeah in a past life I said a lot things on the internet I wish I had not. Some really mean hateful things, and for that I will go through another lifetime of atonement, and not repeating the same mistakes twice.
Bringing happy happy sounds good.
But also for myself.
"Bacon. Because it's really fucking good."
With that ad line, I would have definitely been buying more bacon.
Usually I think they are delicious, and I am not talking about in the cannibalistic sense.
No, that is not true. I'm a man, and I always have the last word; yes ma'am / yes dear.
I thought sex was more fun, for all parties concerned, if procreation was eliminated as a potential risk.
I already have 2 kids, I don't want more, but I want to be having sex for the rest of my life.
I don't understood discriminating sexually, or why anyone would state a sexual preference, or bias, based on a human characteristic. When it comes to sex, I am an equal opportunity patron (not with cash, but I have no problem with that either). Old or young (at least older than the age of consent) doesn't bother me at all, and I don't discriminate based of petty factors such as age (except those under the age of 18), weight, height, race, color, creed, back ground, religious belief, or social standing/status. If a woman is not carrying a contagious disease, has a fully functional brain, and isn't under the influence of alcohol or some other drug, then god(dess) gave her talents, qualities, and more than one uniqueness of some kind that are certain to be pleasurable to experience regardless of how she looks (and even if she does have an STD, there are always condoms).
Life is too short not to see the beauty in everyone, and anyone who builds a wall of bias is denying themselves the beauty of what god(dess) created. Saying you won't have anything to do sexually with a certain group of people based on a human quality, is like saying you don't approve of god(dess)'s buffet. Personally if I could, and if I weren't married, I would try to sample the entire buffet. I tasted a fair amount of that buffet, before I met my wife, and I can say it all tasted good.
Yeah, if you are bi-sexual.
I don’t consider heterosexuality, homosexuality, or bi-sexuality as sexual preference, but rather as sexual orientation. I’m oriented towards women, and I don’t form a sexual preference based on a human characteristic.
Dick, if you are not careful you might get the nick name Limp.
I have news for you; beauty, and your extension of beauty to sexiness, is in the eye of the beholder. Just because you have blinders on, doesn’t mean the rest of us do.
I never cry or get choked up (or pretend to do so) when I answer the question "how do you do it?"
Crying or getting choked up when talking about yourself is the supreme expression of egotism (oh that poor little senator and former first lady, oh I really should feel sorry for her). Give it break, Hillary won't be the last woman to run for President, and the last thing I am ever going to do is feel sorry for her.
But that was just beginning. It was the "obliterate" comment that really pissed me off. It was like her telling me that everything I have done was meaningless, and I'm an idiot.
Can Hillary do anything, without playing politics?
She is a great woman, I have tremedous respect for her, I regret a lot of the things I have said about her in the past few months, but now it is time for her to go.
She hired Mark Penn, she ran a bad campaign, she pissed off a lot of people when we desperately needed unity, and she ultimately lost a nomination that should have been a sure thing for her. Imagine how she would run the nation?
Having been in the military for 12 years, and having lived through some very stressful situation, I can honestly say "no!"
When projecting strength, perception is everything, and to be strong you don't want people to feel sorry for you or pity you (whether it be with a publicity stunt choke up or a real choke up).
Like I said; I respect Hillary Clinton, I like her, I would vote for her if she obtained the nomination, but the last thing I am going to do is feel sorry for her.
This will be the last letter I will post regarding Hillary Clinton.
You could simply post a photo of one of the nightly date-rape crime scenes. That was enough to put me off bar hopping for the rest of my life (that, and the fact that I am allergic to alcohol).
In the past five years I have maybe gotten drunk a hand full of times, and even then only at friends house or at parties at my house (never at bars or clubs). For the past few year I have tried hard to encourage adults to have fun in ways that didn't involve alcohol, and unfortunately have had little success.
Why is the common denominator for adult fun alcohol?
I hate being drunk, and I hate being hung over in the morning even more. Alcohol is not fun, but safe, mature, responsible sex is a lot of fun.
