Anyone here hate getting blowjobs? Just curious.

Hate? No.
- HATE?

I've never been brought to climax via BJ, but they're still wonderful.

[oskar]

Anyone here hate getting blowjobs? Just curious.

No, but I've gotten blowjobs that make me understand why some people would.

[aubreymcfate]

A blowjob should be like a prayer, nothing less. Srsly, a proper blowjob should be religious worship, straight-up fundamentalist, like you'd kill for that shit (or at least picket a funeral).

I have important thoughts about important things.

[Renton]

Good BJ is better than the best intercourse. Mediocre tug is better than a mediocre BJ. This is all stated in the non-transitive property of sex acts in page 137 of your text.

Well as long as you pray daily I think I'd consider you marriage material.

[OngBonga]

Well as long as you pray daily I think I'd consider you marriage material.

That's generally how you stop a woman sucking your cock... by marrying her.

[rong]

That's not strictly true, its more by taking her for granted and/or not making her feel sexy, which is what most men do once they've been married for a while.

How old are you?

[OngBonga]

Well this is true. But the reason men start taking their women for granted is because they stop dieting.

Of course I'm an expert on this matter.

Wrong.

It's by being less attractive and acting like a bitch.

[rong]

Well acting like a bitch would make her feel less sexy.

[spoonitnow]

Well acting like a bitch would make her feel less sexy.

Nah, it just makes you less sexy which turns off her sex drive towards you (but not towards men in general).

Funny quote from a guy I used to work for:

"The worst piece of pussy I ever got was still better than jerking off."

I think I agree in a vacuum, but not when you take $4/gallon gas into consideration.

[rong]

I don't know if I agree with that. It's the kinda comment I'd throw out there and maybe mean it when I say it, but I'm sure there's times where sex has been disappointing and unsatisfying, where as I don't think I've ever let myself down in that way.

[jyms]

Did anyone watch their local MLB team last year without cable? I'm looking into using the MLB app and either Hola or another service to watch local games live. I know I can watch them after the broadcast or watch out of market teams but I need to figure out how I can watch teh local team without it being a fuzzy, sketchy free TV/sports website.

Dude from my hometown got popped for making moonshine in 2015:

http://www.yadkinripple.com/news/blo...s-of-moonshine

Welcome to the south.

[Renton]

Yeah I mean we gotta shut this moonshine gravy train down. What a thriving fucking black market that needs to be stopped.

[oskar]

Is moonshine really a big deal? My grandfather made high proof spirits without a license which I guess meets the definition of moonshine, my father did it, my father's 70 year old neighbor and great grandmother does it. I never much liked drinking it, but it's fun making it.

[spoonitnow]

The county in question was dry until just a few years ago which is probably worth noting.

(For people who don't know, a dry county means that all alcohol sales are prohibited.)

[rong]

Holy duck, what's wrong with us?
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...s-9898541.html

Three banned acts were deemed life threatening: strangulation, facesitting and fisting.
Other acts banned included spanking beyond a gentle level, full bondage and restraint (in conjunction with a gag and all four limbs restrained) and - bizarrely - female ejaculation.
Abusive language during sex is now also banned, alongside depictions of non-consensual sex.

He should've got a better lawyer. I'm not into this anime shit, but I've seen some. How the fuck am I supposed to determine the age of an unrealistic computerised image? If I draw a crude drawing of an eight year old girl, and then masturbate while looking at it, can I go to jail? What if I draw exactly the same picture and say she's 18?

Here's the details, should you care. I'm sure you'll find a better source with more info

It's worth pointing out that Bet365's website was hit by the "adult content filter" because it was "too sexy," and now you have to contact your ISP to remove the filter to be able to view it.

It basically means I can't record a video of me fucking my girlfriend while calling her a dirty whore and then put it in the internet. I'm sure she'll be ok with that, but I feel my rights have been infringed.

High time for the UK to get rid of Cameron. Theres a reason europe is voting more and more nationalist parties, the left-wing nutters due to their worldview of everything needing to be solved by dialogue that doesnt offend anyone have no answer to the many actual problems that are relevant today. So they come with total bs freedom of speech oppression and spying policies because they cant provide any real answers. Its a delight to watch Belgian politics now that center-right has taken over. The socialsts keep lashing out in their known ways but theyve been made irrelevant and have nothing to say anymore. They still hold many positions as well being overrepresented in the media but the times are changing.

Just yesterday a socialist commented on the governments plan to take away the nationality of extremists (like duh obv) that it was ¨what the nazis did¨. He faced major backlash and was forced to apologize. Yunmy. And our right wing minister said she was going to change the laws to make child care prioritize people who actually work because theyre the ones paying for the service. Major outcry from the socialists, they want all the benefits to go to the unemployed and poor (who sit at home and dont even need it!). And our minister stood her ground. Needless to say that the general public loves thisl. Fucking finally we have a competent government we can trust on doing the right thing.

[OngBonga]

Unfortunately Cameron is going nowhere. His only serious challenger is even more unelectable than Cameron. Not that it matters. Our "democracy" is a joke, just like the majority of nations.

[jackvance]

Cameron is such a tool. Hes feeling UKIP breathe down his neck though and yesterday he announced his plans to bring back immigration from hundreds of thousands to tens of thousands. Maybe hollow words but its something. I get that theres little alternative which is sad. Give it time.

Hollande has to go though. If Cameron is a tool, Hollande is the tool that all tools bow down to. I mean just look at the guy, who would want this to represent them?? La suicide francais. Getting the extreme right voted in isnt ideal (prefer a center-right realistic party) but at this point, Marine is the superior option between the two.

Oh and i havent seen anyone discuss Greece yet but for europe this is getting quite interesting. Pretty much everyone except Merkel (Germany benefits majorly from the EU because they have the superior economy) wants to curb EUs power (and spending). Tsipras actually looks to be a very intelligent guy and hes going to be launching bombshells at the EU, popcorn time.

[Savy]

Just FYI Camerson is from the "centre-right".

[bigred]

What is a centray (spelled centre)? Is that like center?

[OngBonga]

I'm interested in what's going on in Greece. I don't think this guy will last long though, he'll get nudged out one way or another. He's talking about reversing privatisation... that will displease the capitalists who are profiting from the mess Greece is in. Europe has a vested interest in ensuring this guy fails, because if he succeeds in restoring Greece's economy, then that tells Europe and all its people that austerity isn't the only way to recover. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a plane crash.

[Renton]

He'll probably just bankrupt the country for real, which would probably be an improvement.

[aubreymcfate]

There's no way Greece can fail because my cousin is their government spokesperson and deputy minister to the prime minister, SOOOOO uh clearly they'll be fine, what with my genes in such a high position of power! lol

in all seriousness, I think this is an incredible paradigm shift either way, Greece was seriously suffering and radical change was needed, I think. But I had similar thoughts to you Ong... We shall see.

(if that plane crash happens and my cousin is onboard i'm blaming you personally, you and your weird prophetic forum powers)

Btw this is awesome:

http://www.economist.com/blogs/erasm...rteousdistance

GREECE'S new prime minister, Alexis Tsipras, made history within hours of his victory by informing the Archbishop of Athens, very politely, that clerical services would not be required for his swearing-in ceremony. An avowed atheist who has nonetheless made a point of dealing courteously with senior clergy, Mr Tsipras lost no time in making known that his oath of office would be a secular procedure. It was also explained that when the whole cabinet was sworn in, a more junior cleric (but not the archbishop) would be invited to assist those who wished to take a religious oath.

[Renton]

Yeah I won't pretend to be anything but a distant spectator, but I have a feeling enacting far-left policies is going to destroy Greece, financially at least. Seems like they need to just declare bankruptcy and start from scratch after taking a hatchet to their behemoth of a public sector. The austerity measures were bad in a different direction, but at least the goal was to rein in the runaway spending.

Light on the deets for which way he's extreme. Too bad. Still not sure if he worked for Newell because he's influenced by market monetarism or if he doesn't work for Newell anymore because he's not influenced by market monetarism. It's probably neither

Regardless, Greece can't fix its problems unless it leaves the EUR. But it won't. Fiscal stimulus and austerity do not work because of the monetary offset. Germany controls monetary policy, so as long as the ECB keeps its ridiculously tight monetary regime, Greece will be buried beneath the weight

What's really going to happen is that Germany and the ECB will eventually act non-retardedly (don't hold your breath), and Greece will be the Mississippi of Europe, unable to get much going because of the monetary peg to regions more capable. Granted there are other things Greece can do to get out of that, but those things have rarely been done.

If Greece moves leftward, it will only make things much worse. It isn't that people forget we've already tried left-wing economics, but that people have convinced themselves that historical examples of left-wing economics don't count

[wufwugy]

It also doesn't spell well for Greece since they (1) have never had that great of civic traditions and (2) what civic traditions they have had are mostly influenced by Roman stoicism, which is one of the foundations for where we got Germany's national socialism and the Bolsheviks' soviet socialism

Greece is too beautiful and too ancient to have a great economy. It could probably be argued that it's still more of a Sophocles Greece than an Adam Smith Greece

Monopolists are what profit from Greece, not free market capitalists. Greece is actually pretty terrible for capitalists. The main reason it's where it is today is because Germany is in charge, and Greece doesn't matter much to it. Protip: Germany is not run by market capitalists

Democracy is the problem. Implement the majority views of voters and you'll find you live in a national socialist hellhole.

That's not to say that authoritarianism works better. It doesn't. We need to add to our vocabulary the political system of market capitalism. That's the solution. Allow things to have a value. That's how we've gotten this far, and not doing that is how the USSR collapsed

[wufwugy]

Apparently Varoufakis has learned a thing or two while working under the Hayekian economics at Valve. Hopefully it isn't just a matter of Newell's brilliance in creating a company that operates as much like a market as possible

I'm not sure what part of my statement you're referring to, but yeah the UK is one of the bastions of market ideals in the Europe. It (along with the northwest of continental Europe) is what created the idea. Then the US ran with it. Probably the vast frontier is what allowed market ideals to flourish in the US so well.

Was just trying to make that Ong's opinion is something other than drum circle equivalent

I mean that the uk isn't a national socialist hell hole and if parties did cater to the majority views of voters then it certainly wouldn't be remotely close to socialistic in the current climate.

If that's true, that's very interesting. In the US, most market-oriented folk are still extremely authoritarian. It goes with the territory when people believe government is where morals go to become law. The difference is sorta like how several US states with people who claim to be avidly anti-government and pro-market passed hefty minimum wage laws by initiative. It's the "elites" in the GOP that have been keeping the regular folk from screwing themselves on this sort of thing. If the people of Arkansas truly had their way, they would become national socialists. They'd never see it coming until it's too late

I'm applying this logic loosely to my own lack of financial savvy.

[jackvance]

Some women are horrible at blowjobs, Ive had it happen that I just had to stop them but most women are decent enough. The girl Im mainly seeing now is really good at it. A woman from back home told me last year that shed hold bj marathons and just suck her bf off for hours on end. Her record was something like 8 hours. I told this to my girl to warm her up to the idea. When I got around to watching The Interview, she gave me a bj through half of it. Probably made me like the movie more than it should.

Definitely. And Tsipras looks to be a really sharp guy, he already announced his first move: to do away with All In hotels to make sure tourist proceedings go to the locals. I can applaud this although the capitalists will not like it.

How I have identified the problem through my own observations and talking about it with many people is this: there is a fundamental difference in how southern european countries (spain, italy, greece) conduct their business compared to northern european ones. In the South they base much more value on personal relationships. If you do business with someone from there, theyll want to meet you, see if you can be trusted and then theyll deal. Northern euope is much more pragmatic in comparison. The reasons for this difference are a combination of culture and genetics (these two go hand in hand). The downside of favoring relations is that efficiency suffers. Relatives are favored over others instead of picking the most competent person. And if you need to pass by and grease a few people every time you need to get something done, then you get the kind the corruption that has brought southern europe to the problems it is currently in. If you need more proof of the difference between relational thinkers and pragmatic thinkers, just compare North America (US) with its northern european descendants and South America with its southern european (spanish) descendants. Which is more efficient at organizing in a way that gets things done?

What this basically means is that there isnt an easy fix. The northern european capitalists arent going to be very forgiving towards what they perceive as e wasteful mis-management from the south. But I do believe it can be handled a lot better than it is now and that Tsipras is a step forward towards making things better for the Greeks.

Great description of one of the differences between Mediterranean Europe and the north

I'm pretty sure that doing away with All In Resorts will do nothing positive for the locals. This sort of action is inherently no different than protectionism, tariffs, wage floors, etc. Distribution of capital mostly doesn't matter because of things like investment being the same as delayed consumption. Change in capital distributions are positive when they lower the cost of doing business or when they increase the quality of products/services

From the sounds of it, prohibition of All In Resorts is one of those millions of examples of things voters like the sound of, but are really just economy-deteriorating central command supported based on "common sense" values instead of serious economics

probably majoring in financial mathematics at plu. not sure yet but probably. will be the hardest endeavor ive ever done. not the hardest thing (since "thing" can mean anything), but definitely the hardest accomplishment. then i'll move into actuary, for which passing the exams will become the new hardest endeavor of my life

kinda wish i could have come to this path earlier in life, but what's done is done
