I don't care what you say, that has got to be the limit, right there: Hiccup Fetishists. A few years on the web and you start to be ashamed that you haven't developed a really strange fetish. You feel like you are not welcome in all the cool clubs and hip places. Even if your fetish is one-in-a-million, there are like 250 of your moronic electro-shock-using-bananas-as-conductors freako companions.
Hey! She has a nice tush.
Oh yeah? Any bits of lettuce stuck to it?
Uh, no, just a fine sexy little bottom with plenty o bounce.
Feh, never mind then...

penile plethismograph sounds so much better than gas chamber or torture or brainwashing. Still, the treatment they are prescribing sounds rather familiar. Hurray! I'm so glad we are torturing people rather than just killing them or chopping them up for parts.

You don't have to be a programmer to get the humor in this State Machine description. Very funny.

You know, there really aren't enough ways to waste your time on the web. I mean, sure you can spend hours looking at cool swords but is that really a waste?

So now that I'm trying to redesign my site real quick, I'm having to quickly check my favorite blogs to see who I'm unconsciously imitating. =) Outright theft is the sincerest form of web.flattery, right?

Netscape 4.7 sucks for style sheets here are the bugs you may have to live with if I switch formats:

  • No background set on main text pane (unless I can get it to background a DIV without a fucking border. nope but I can get the text alone backgrounded.
  • update, fixed with evil margin-left: -1px; hackweird empty column thanks to NS4.7 doing additive margining, even for floats.
  • update, fixed with DIV =)fricking wierd layout of entries since it not only ignores the margin formating on DT and DD tags, but also wipes its default too. Nice, real nice.

Mike Jasper nails it on the head this week. If you aren't reading this near the date I published it, you may have to hunt thru his archives for the story titled "The choice is clear". Sorry, the guy doesn't upcap his story titles, he's too laid back for that typography shit.

I also took a close look at the Reform Party, but decided my German was too rusty. The Libertarian candidate has a certain appeal, but I still like to use some government services. Like sidewalks.

If you didn't get enough political humor there, keep an eye on AdCritic for the new donkey and elepahnt Snickers™ advo. Wow, wow, wow. I hurt myself laughing at it. If it had come on again, I'd have woken up my roommate in the little of the night to see it.

This captivated me. From this Slashdot post. Way cool hacking and cyphering, the cold there in in Sweden must be good for the brain =)

Ok I'm going thru the site cleaning things up real quick, hooked coredump up correctly, finally, added the Work Haiku in the poetry section, and twiddled a few other things here and there. I considered skittering about the web looking for other stupid haiku variants but I just couldn't stand it, my own poetry is so bad, why subject myself to other's shitty poems? I should get to a couple more actual content posts soon, as well as beginning the redesign of the site. If things break or look real ugly (moreso than now, I mean) please put up with it silently, as no one likes a whiner.

Ok, why is it that serial killers are always referred to as nice people, quiet and good with children? Why are their families always surprised that they are serial killers?

Answer: Because they are charismatic and good liars. If their family hated them and suspected anything, if people didn't trust them implicitly, they would have been turned in and caught long ago. We have a name for that, it's murderer. Duh. What a fucking stupid world we live in that people think that this is worth repeating over and over when talking about them...

Hey, DFA, check out GuruChild for a new sex portal on the possibly run by martians Bla-Bla network. They seem to be walking the fine line between soft-pr0n and amusing entertainment. It's a scary old world of geek porn and stuff like HLOFCWS Sure is nice of the Bla-Bla people to come along and sell ad-banners to it all. =)

Alright, now I'm just getting upset.

It is nearly fscking impossible to find anything useful on the net regarding sexuality, without being bombarded with over-the-top, take-control-of-your-browser, scum-of-the-earth sex pages popping up.

Just once I'd like to be able to search for japanese rope bondage and actually find helpful and educational links leading me to a better understanding of this artistic form of sexuality. Instead, I'm flattened by 16,400 results of little more than porn.

I know the good stuff is out there. I occasionally find helpful sites that educate you how to take advantage of sexual information in your everyday sex life, but they are buried under countless heathens that would rather sell you a poorly-focused, badly-composed, koochie photo!

Now I'm not one to promote censorship...but it seems to me that there ought to be a way for your average open-minded guy or gal to find helpful information on the kink of their interest, without having to beat back the throngs of salivating meat pumpers who want to impose their wares!

So bring it on, you well-funded venture capitalists! I want a Wal-Mart of kinky sex! I want a Meijers of safe, clean perversion! I want it on the web and I want it in my home town! NOW! MOVE IT!

Why is it that Yahoo is the favorite "escape to" destination for pornographers and fetish-freaks and all manner of adult weirdness? I wonder how many impressions a year Yahoo gets from people who click on sites like this freak and then bail in fear to yahoo from the Escape link?

See, I have goth friends, but I just don't get it. 'Cept the look, which you really can't beat (well, off too but we won't get rude, oops). _IF_ you are looking for the look, look no further:

So what is goth? Shit I dunno, I think it's a shade of reddish-purple. Or some fabric kinda half way between taffetta and crushed velvet, usually dyed black. It sure ain't this. Maybe it is bad poetry? Or is it severe, squared off bangs? I know that graveyards are involved. It could be a brand of PVC fabric, or a particular shade of platinum white make-up. Black lipstick maybe? Exhibitionism is a likely symptom, if it turns out to be a disease. Cheer up, I could have made that poetry one a link, oh god, oh god, the horror...

MRI + sex == reasearch.
This just seemed to be full of humor to me. Too much Beavis and Butthead as a youth. Interesting paper all in all but still, it was the little things that jumped out at me (ouch):

Participants were assured confidentiality, privacy, anonymity, and the possibility of withdrawing from the study at any time.
Note that they had to mention the possibility to withdraw at anytime, that bit was for the guys...

After written informed consent had been obtained, the participants were invited to come for a scan when the equipment was available on a Saturday.
Not necessarily in that order...

An improvised curtain covered the window between the two rooms, so the intercom was the only means of communication.
An intercom would be an upgrade for most relationships...

The subjective level of sexual arousal of the participants, men and women, during the experiment was described afterwards as average.
In a giant scanning machine, average... I guess they'd need Big Bird and a marching band for extraordinary?

Eight women had a complete sexual response during sexual stimulation (experiments 4-11) and these women described their orgasm as "superficial."
[Insert faking orgasm joke here]

We did not foresee that the men would have more problems with sexual performance (maintaining their erection) than the women in the scanner.
We are talking about people who can't stand being watched while peeing... what planet are these doctors from?

Only the first couple was able to perform coitus adequately without sildenafil (experiments 1 and 2). The reason might be that they were the only participants in the real sense: involved in the research right from the beginning because of their scientific curiosity, knowledge of the body, and artistic commitment. And as amateur street acrobats they are trained and used to performing under stress.
Man I gotta get out more...

The thing that springs to mind here is that I can download pictures of people having sex with animals, telephones, vinyl appliances, midgets, on skyscrapers, in elevators, in crowded parks on playground equipment, covered in mud, peeing on each other and more but they can't find 8 couples who can keep it together for 50 seconds. Clearly, their next research project should be finding out where the hell all the freaks were when they were trying their first project.

Also, even though it took Viagra for them to get good pictures, right now there are people plotting on how to get in to a hospital to have sex in the morgue. Think about that for a second...
