Why do we Litify everything?

[DeMont]

I see a thread talking about computer systems and referring to a 'backend problem'.


Where does my mind go?

@Five_Inch_Heels,
Yes, I see what you mean... there was I, sitting happily watching "The Matrix" part something or other and just enjoying the general entertainment when one of the characters mentioned "finding a back door into the system" Really! I mean I had to turn it off and watch "The Hunt for Red October" instead.

Do you think we spend too much time here analysing, de-constructing and re-constructing the elements of sexual activity? Have we all become sex-crazed robo-fiends out to dominate (no pun intended) the world and turn it into our own private "Alice/Alex in Wonderlust Land"? (Hey, now there's an idea!!! a sex crazed centipede with a hooker, ahhh, hookah... (or both! And it ain't no small cake that says "Eat Me")

Sometimes I wonder... and yes, wander...!
Deeply respectful, as ever,
D.

No, not at all. Keep it up, everyone.

 

[StillStunned]

Yeah, but you don't get the bit five minutes later. His eyes are moving downwards, for sure.

Actually, she's saying, "If you look down, so will I. Are you one of those statues with a teeny tiny todger?"

 

[AG31]

Are you one of those statues with a teeny tiny todger?"

Yeah, what about those teeny tiny todgers? Was that typical of men in ancient Greece? Or were they just being polite?

This is something that Europeans (and we Brits, or at least some of us anyway) don't really understand. Boobs are boobs, there's nothing particularly sexual about them.

This is smack-bang in front of the Austrian parliament.

If that were the case, how come every boobed statue has perfect cup size C?

Drafty place innit

and all the men looking could feel better about their own size

Unless they're in your hands.

I like to think it was just the sculptors having a dig at their patrons. "I modelled this statue of Hercules after you..."

Alternatively, the Norwegian sculptor Vigeland (mid 20th century, love his work, but he was a f-ing nazi sympathizer) sculpted a statue of a nude male toddler who was unrealistically well endowed for the age. It's one of the statues in the park on Oslo filled with his statues. I would post a picture of it here, but I'm afraid it would get zapped.

Ancient Greeks found tiny todgers more aesthetically appealing.

What I wanna know is whether all of the ancient models shaved their bodies, or if the sculptors found carving body hair too hard and so ignored it.

He was in the Renaissance, but somebody supposedly asked Michelangelo how he worked with marble. This has to be apocryphal, but his answer was, "I just take away the stone I don't need." Yeah, but he couldn't put any of it back.

I see a question where someone is asking if this tech thing will work abroad.

I'm trying to resist asking if they think it will work a dude.

Don't be too sure. A colleague of mine some years ago showed off his newborn son's endowment. It stretched half-way down the infant's thigh.

A baby's testicles can be very enlarged at birth. My baby's were.

 

[StillStunned]

I have a new theory about the teeny tiny todgers: if they made them large, every person passing the statue would be compelled to reach out and touch it.

Admit it: you would. Everyone would. It's human nature.

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

Is there one damn thread anywhere on the AH that doesn't get in baby stuff?

What the crap is wrong with people?

@Five_Inch_Heels,
Well, I was going to mention the penchant for having water features in the higher class gardens that featured little fellows/ cherubs or whatever weeing into the font... however, out of deference to you my dear colleague, I shan't.
Deeply respectful, always,
D.
