watching those gigantic blackheads being removed is kind of calming - almost a zen like experience

I had a girlfriend once who loved to go over my body and look for a black head or scab or what have you to pick off and she loved cleaning my ears.


Asked my current girl to do it and she told me to fuck off.

lol

Today is day one of my ten day vacation... it's good to be me.

I've been doing it for as long as I can remember cause my sisters made me do it to them.

It was a long while til I figured out that not everyone enjoyed mashing bumps.
 
I've never smelt anything worse than the burns victims flown into work from the Bali bombings. Sweet Jesus it took days for that smell to leave me and I just happened to be in ED as they were wheeled by into the bays, I don't know how the nurses and doctors coped with it while working on them. Takes a special kind of human to do what they do I think.

Yes, one without a sense of smell. :(

What are you, a fucking spaniel?
 
Caroline Aherne has died of cancer. Aged 52. FFS, there will be no talent left in the British media at the end of the year at this rate.
 
My voice has taken on a very raspy quality. Benefit of the end of a cold? At least the scratchy throat is a thing of the past.
 
NPR Moderation (a/k/a censorship)


The comment sections of NPR (National Public Radio, the U.S. public radio network) is "moderated" (a/k/a censored).


There are, of course, the obvious banned words (e.g., the "N word," the F-bomb and several other "F" words) but there are other words or phrases that are not permitted.


One surprising example is "Darwin Award." Even subtle variations of the phrase (e.g., D*a*r*w*i*n A*w*a*r*d) will be expunged.


If you use the phrase, your comment will promptly be disappeared.


You're not allowed to refer to the "censors" as such either. That, too, will get your comment promptly disappeared. Commenters resort to referring to the moderator/censors as "Those Who Must Not Be Named."


In fact, "moderation" on NPR oft times seems essentially random and inchoate. Many commenters are baffled by its unpredictability.


I'm actually contemplating starting a thread on Lit challenging Litizens to list all the offending words or phrases that will get a comment deleted on NPR. It might be fun and instructive.

Oh for fucks sake

Much like Lit can set the rules as to what they will allow to post, so can the NPR.

And much like eyer, if you dont like the rules than stop visiting the site.
