FIRST CHALLENGE -


62
Oh, question!

How to have sex with someone and be sure that the partner knows its just sex and nothing else without saying it? (seeing as "talking" about sex is kind of a turnoff for me... of course I can talk about it at a different occasion providing everybody acts like it didn't happen when the act itself is to be performed.)
I can't answer off the top of my head, but I'll get back to you on that.

Also, wearing nothing, I'm going to bed.

63
Do I need to link to the "nudes" btw?
I mean I've been watching porn and having cybersex since I was 13 or something, so who would it be offending? Also, this IS "the Sex thread", so people not ready for this wouldn't visit, right?
One supposes that it is rather a "Does what it says on the tin" situation.

64
What can I say? I'm old School, yo.

66
Huh what do expect from snowboarders.
A little more clothing, usually.

huh, I wonder what nbn will mean for us, since I work at a cdn now :)

tirelessly around the clock (still kinda working) to make sure all of you around the world are delivered streaming porn at breakneck speeds. You're welcome.
Well, in terms of network operations, I wouldn't imagine it would be too different in pure function, but volume is going to get interesting - To the best of my knowledge, most of what they're doing is replacing the copper infrastructure we have at the moment with a GPON, and upgrading the local hardware to match. Essentially, converting our copper network over to Fibre to the Premises. So, in theory, the biggest change will be that you will have 96% percent of internet users in Australia able to pull down something in the region of 100 Megabits per second average, but increasing until it's at roughly a gigabit per second average in eleven years time.

Though, dare I say you'll have time to prepare, with the speed it's being rolled out at. And as a bonus, it might convince someone to do something with all the dark fibre laying around in the US.

Edit - I'm sure there are a hundred reasons why I'm entirely wrong - as is the norm with this sort of thing - but frankly, I've had a pretty fucking evil day, and I do not give the slightest utterance of the concept of giving a fuck.

Double edit - Not telling the story is a little unfair, if I'm going to be all angry like, so here's the outline - spent the day investigating legal options on a client who after I acted as a go-between on a sale of a small antiquity, basically said "Well, we have it now, thanks, fuck off" and are not paying me my commission. But with the lack of paperwork on the rush job, and the fact that the small amount of paperwork they were given they have apparently destroyed or denied the existence of - which I don't have copies of - I have no ability to legally prove they just ripped me off to the tune of three grand. So, legal options, pretty much entirely zero, and likelihood of managing to win if I did try and use the few options that remain, absolute zero. All I can do is spread it to my network of contacts that they ripped me and therefore blackball them, but it won't do much. I'm super, super pissed off right now.

I confess I've been absorbed in work as well... and the coming baby (due last sunday and still waiting).  Between that and a couple of new DS8800s trying to replace a pair of DS8100s together with a new Power795 and various upgrades to AIX 6.1.6 to work on it... Its been a hell of a long few weeks.
Thirded for me, though at the moment it's half trying to get steady work, half trying to work.

so isn't it a squid instead of an octopus if it doesn't have 8 tentacles?
No, because squid have ten appendages, two tentacles, and eight arms, while octopuses have four sets of two arm pairs, and usually no tentacles. When you're talking about the Class Cephalopoda, arms are of equal length, and usually have suckers on the entire length, while tentacles are elongated, and only have suckers at the tip.

so then it's lost a tentacle?
More likely it's just hidden from view by the head, but possibly, they do grow back, IIRC.

Strewth,

I was half a second away from marking this post for deletion when I just read enough to discover it was legit *lol*

Love your work mate.  I hope is wasn't Maytag's thumb that was getting the Honey Badger off *lol*

I'll have to checkout your own comics sometime soon.
True that, I saw the dude's name, and thought "Oh, christ, another cheap meds spammer" but luckily I read the post, because these are some pretty good comics, right here.

Yeh, a used hypodermic here, a bit of broken glass there....
I live near the Gold coast and north cost, not Bondi.

If you want some good Fantasy, Try the Prince of Nothing series by R Scott Bakker. The books should be called "The darkness that comes before", "The Warrior Prophet", and "The Thousandfold thought."

It's excellent, and part of what's facinating about them is that one of the main characters has amazing powers or prediction and persuasion, which appear to be magic, but in reality are just a skill with Rationality, cognitive bias and causality.

If you like those, there is also a follow up series, called the Aspect Emperor Trillogy, which already contains "The Judging Eye" and "The White-Luck Warrior", with the next book, "The unholy consult" coming out next year.

I'll put some more thought down and explore my collection, and get back to you with more.

Damn, I was out at the Mana Bar last night and forgot to call and see if you wanted to join me there Churba.

Another day.
A terrible pity, but there are indeed many days to come, one of them will have an opportunity.

And it's not as if Amy Winehouse was completely unexpected... it was only a matter of time there.

However I WILL be surprised if her COD was anything but massive organ failiure due to long-time addictions of multiple toxic substances or suicide.
Of course, don't forget accidental overdose - Not quite suicide, but she was a known drug user, and also had other health complications which may have caused problems in some fashion. We shall see.

I'm once again being paid to drink and smoke on expenses, this time, interviewing for a magazine. Oorah!

I might be a hopeless prick, and look like hammered shit wrapped in a leather jacket, but how many people can say they get paid to drink and talk shit? And I even get to tell y'all about it from my phone, from my favorite karaoke and cheap drinks dive-bar.

Hey, all those fuckers who said I'd never get anywhere in life? Hope you enjoy your office, cocksuckers! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Fuck me, Journalism is great.

Just the usual getup - Jeans, boots, casual button down shirt and leather jacket. Gotta slip out and do some work stuff tonight.

Not so much a comic mistake as a possible site issue, but the intermission comic isn't showing up for me, no matter which device I use(PC, iphone, Droid), nor which connection, with three tried so far(Wifi home, Wifi at the shops, and 3G on my phone)

The model is a suzuki gs550L from 83, i sold it a year ago because it was crap.
Not bad to look at, though.

4chan had a prank going called the "Involuntary Flashmob" or the "Forever Alone Project", where they would get a bunch of blokes on internet dating sites with a fake profile, and get them to meet in a public place, where there are a handful of other blokes who had been similarly had. Obviously, the woman doesn't really exist in the traditional sense.
Of course, as you can see by the above link, Vice (Along with Reddit's Ladyboners Sub-reddit - who deemed him ?A lady boner, two feet long.?) took somewhat of a liking to one Dapper Gent with a Fine Fedora, Who clearly had not a single fuck to give-


A good man I know who goes by YoshoKatana, AKA, Keats.

So, Vice, Being Vice, Tracked down our favorite two-foot Ladyboner - Now that I think about it, that makes him sound like a sexy midget but moving swiftly along - And Interviewed him at length - Where he has shown himself to be witty, charming, unashamed, and unafraid to help a brother out in an orgy - along with a rather appealing GQ style photoshoot.

Aww. Crest is so CUTE.  He's got it BAD for Suspira. At least he gets it.  Yes, he's going to have to be VERY patient, but Suspira will be totally worth it.
Either that, or she'll get the shits with him and in a burst of rage and magical power explodes him into a cloud of rapidly expanding incandescent gasses that used to be Crest.

Good stuff.

I'd have to say that one of the highlights of the night was Churba, My 88 year old Grandad, one other mate and myself all singing some ancient old drinking song from my Grandad's war days.

Was it just me or did you actually know the words to that Churba?

Glorious! Victorious
One Barrel of beer betwen the four of us!
Glory be to God, there isn't any more of us,
'cos one of us could drink the flaming lot!

I'll be there (I'll be there)
I'll be there (I'll be there)
When the beer is on the table I'll be there
When the beeeeeer is on the table
When the beer is on the table I'll be there
It wasn't just you, I remembered it indeed. It's quite proudly traditional.

Ahh, it was only a 5pm start with the message to show up anytime after that Churba *lol*

Still, I can tell you the story with that ciggy.  A bunch of people were heading down for a drag, you went to make a few roll-your-owns to join them.  Spent quite some time and took care, then put one in your mouth and had a few final words to someone which caused the cig you'd been carefully working on to fall from your mouth, right into your beer... We may have had some laughs at the Cig's misfortune.

Never-the-less I'll let all know that the Cig survived the drama and was still able to accomblish it's purpose later.
I was wondering about that, though I suspect the time and great care was mostly from not quite being co-ordinated enough to make the movements required without quite a bit of concentration.

As for the start time - The problem was that if I hadn't caught a way over close to then, I would have had a hard time getting there at all, but luckily, one of my mates lives out that way, and was going past my place on his way home from work.

I found a cigarette in the pocket of my shirt last night that was crinkled, liquid-stained, and smelled of beer. Smoked it anyway. It actually wasn't that bad.

And as for great journalistic advice, I remember saying "this is your first lesson" a lot, advising him to beat his liver into submission with frequent administration of of large amounts of alcohol, and telling him to write a lot. I hope he remember the lesson better than I do...

Jesus I am in some serious fucking pain here.

Talk about fuckin' drilled. I tried to get some video, but it's all spinning, noise and nonsense, I've no idea what I was trying to get. We ended up karaokeing something, god knows what. I have a few photos. Let me get back to you all on that.
