That about sums it up if you have read accounts. Better bring your own pussy, it's only the pretender oligarch hippies or rich tekkies who have nude and semi nude painted girls (cough, prostitutes) writhing in communal ecstasy. Real girls don't like getting all that sand blown into their cracks. Otherwise, have a gay day.

seriously surprised no one cancelled them for sexism or some shit. this cancel culture so selective about whom they cancel.

Yes, and thanks for using "whom"!

Everyone on the right needs to use good grammar to be clear about what they're saying, and to undermine the claim that the right is "uneducated".

(I know there's a rule about including the period within quotes, but that's an illogical rule, and not how it works in German or any programming language, so I refuse.)

True, but that is how it works in English and doing it wrong makes one look uneducated. If we were to be "logical" your sentence would have to spell "know" and "quotes" more like "noe" and "kwoats."

Logical periods is my one demand for improving English orthography.

I would not reform spelling because it gives a lot of historical information.

How about with "commas," where the quotation mark always follows the comma just like it would for a period or question mark?

Yes, that too.

What I mean is that you should never quote anything which was not literally part of the quoted text.

Do as computer languages do with quotes.

Apologies if this has already been posted. But I like this version the best because of the screams!

Commas are always supposed to be before the close of a quotation mark?

Holy shit, you are correct. I've never noticed this before. Anything in quotations must end with punctuation. I have never noticed this in all my life.

HAHAHA. How hilarious it's taken me 50 YEARS to recognize this and I did plenty of reading as a kid.

My high school and elementary school English teachers apparently sucked. How is it POSSIBLE I've never been corrected on that with all the papers I wrote and turned in??

Now, that's what I call a struggle session.

This video is extremely satisfying.

Maybe you never included periods. After all, on this blog, we agree that males do not have periods.

I'm being serious. It's extremely odd I didn't know this notation before. This really is quite surprising to me.

You are correct, every quotation must end with punctuation. I seriously never knew that, and I've read 100's of books. It's interesting I never picked up on this and I was never corrected on my hundreds of mistakes.

I knew that exclamations and periods should end within the quotes (I knowingly break this rule), but I never knew all quotations always ended in a punctuation of some sort - given nothing else, a comma. I had to pick up a book to find out you were right and sure enough it's ,"

This is very surprising to me.

Damn! When I was a kid, I had my birthdays at Ferrell's then Benihana and Chuckey Cheese.

Nowadays in the Red States:



Gotta admit, Ferrell's was a lot better tho when I was too young to enjoy Hooters.

This is trivial, but it's been driving me nuts.

That's a scene from The Menagerie where they put in the original pilot to the television show into a 2 part series.

I always liked pictures of six pairs of twins.

Or it's just color filters she imposed on the same object.

Don't trust. That's precisely how I'd do it, if I was a shit person that lied to the public.

Ceffer says

Another hole in the AI woke matrix? Or just a spoof vocoder?

I'm doubtful about these. You can program it to say whatever.

War with China and Russia - if our government does that, time to overthrow it. Russia and the US can mutually destroy each other, we're economically dependent on China. If our government does this, time to just kill them all.

INDIA LANDS ON MOON!

INDIA LANDS ON MOON!

I think it's quite possible that the "picture" of the landing was just CGI because there's really no need for video, you just need telemetry data, but I'm doubtful the whole thing is a hoax.

Funny? or Sexy? Couldn't see her boobs so I put it here.
