Just watched the strangest mature porn. I kept watching out of curiousity really. Still had a wank.
 
I learn something new every day:

A merkin is a pubic wig. Merkins were originally worn by prostitutes after shaving their genitalia, and are now used as decorative items, erotic devices, or in films, by both men and women. The female version is usually made of fur, beaver pelts, linen or some soft version of cloth, while the male version is usually made of loops, chains, or metal, and is much more closely related to the codpiece.

The Oxford Companion to the Body dates the origin of the pubic wig to the 1450s. According to the publication, women would shave their pubic hair for personal hygiene and to combat pubic lice. They would then don a merkin. Also, prostitutes would wear a merkin to cover up signs of disease, such as syphilis.
 
Way down the #1 ladder, do you all really hate a Lancecastor thread that much? :rolleyes:

i'd guess it has lot more to do with the splitting of the board than it does with lance.

also, neci's blurt thread aint doing great either today. it hasn't been posted in for more than half a day. hell, there's still threads on the 1st page of the lounge from the 18th of february.

these are good times.

the golden age of lit.
 
Post counts in both blurt threads are fairly close, with a slight edge for Lance's. Without the lounge, this thread would be half done.

What Is With This Weird Obsession With Russia ?
by Francis Menton



Have you had the sense recently, and particularly so since the inauguration, that the progressive movement has completely lost its mind? I mean, start with the #Resistance movement and its pointless, often violent demonstrations that couldn't be better designed to alienate everybody who is not already fully committed to radical leftism. Or consider the climate change cult, desperately committed to keeping the poor poor and driving up everybody's cost of electricity and transportation because they believe that's the way to "save the planet." But my favorite has to be this weird obsession with Russia. I can't even begin to figure out what it is about.

The New York Times has easily had several dozen articles since the election about the supposedly nefarious relationship between President Trump and/or his team and Russian officials. And I don't mean to single Pravda out particularly -- this obsession is all over the mainstream press. And it goes on day after day with stories of less and less consequence told in breathless tones like they mean something...





(much) more...
