As someone who doesn’t drink or like spicy food, I’m not seeing too much of a problem there. Plus they did have sex, it just wasn’t physical.
Oh who am I kidding, a life without getting porked is no life at all. 
Undercity all the way. I want to live life with blow jobs and alcohol.
“I want to run through the streets naked with green Jell-o all over my body reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly might feel the need to, okay, pal?”
Remember Bullock’s character had all that 20th Century paraphinalia in her office, and Bratt’s character asked her in there wasn’t anything in the office that wasn’t on the banned list.
The most popular radio station only plays the happy happy tv-ad jingles of nearly a century earlier.
Verbal Morality Statute. (Misdemeanor, sure.)
According to Bullock’s character, “bad language, chocolate, gasoline, uneducational toys and anything spicy. Abortion is also illegal, but then again so is pregnancy if you don’t have a licence.”
I think it was meant to portray a nanny-state and/or politically correct society in the extreme.
Hey, once you get the hang of the three shells life ain’t so bad! and with Taco Bell being your only dining choice your gonna need the three shells…
I’ll go with cryostasis.
Not even that. No spicy food. We wouldn’t want to inflame the passions, now.
Also I’ve always wondered about the 3 seashells and so I went looking and found this. Apparantly Stallone finally had a chance to ask one of the writers and according to Stallone:
And a diagram.
I think I’ll stick to TP.
EDIT: PLus what if you had diarrhea? I don’t see the seashells working in those instances
Your’re right, Denis Leary’s schtick would get old. Still San Angeles.
You are an incredibly sensitive person, who inspires joy-joy feelings in all those around you.
You can have sex. Maybe not fluid exchange, though…
Sure, but I don’t buy that the weird virtual sex they demonstrated was as good as the real thing, personally (even though I understand the reasons why it was desirable as a way to end what sounded like pretty horrible STDs).
:eek: HOLY FUCK!
Methinks the writers were just screwing with Stallone to see if he’d actually talk about their explanation in public.
Unlike the Orgasmatron.
Why would any healthy person have to remove large chunks of feces or have much to scrape off.
I always envisioned the three seashells as more like whelks anyway. And I never thought about exactly how you’d use them, though now that you’re talking about it…I’d rather not think about it.
Anyway, I chose “put me in cryostasis,” but if I had to choose, I’d take the undercity. And I’d build a Statue of Liberty out of rat bones while I was at it.
Huh.
I always assumed the three shells were control buttons for some kind of futuristic bidet.
Pre-wash, wax, air dry?
Who’s so afraid of getting murdered that they’d give up everything that’s fun in the world?
I’ve never even been punched in my life and I’m sarcastic and love to argue.
No, you’re not and you don’t…
Isn’t pornography also illegal in San Angeles? Videophone sex is apparently allowed.
Come to think of it, that’s pretty weird.
Not that videophone sex is allowed, but that the woman would be naked for it.
Yep. The whole point of the three seashells joke is that it doesn’t make any sense. If you could come up with a plausible explanation, they’d have chosen something else.
She’s not, it’s videophone sex, but with clothes on.
