this little blurb is from a collection of quotes that i compiled from some crazy times in my 10th grade ‘gifted’ (:rolleyes:) english and history classes:
\*My friend, Kate: See that desert right there above Iraq? See what it’s called? Kara Kum. Isn’t that the BEST porn name? And spelled with K no less!
* * *
Words That Just Shouldn’t Be Used Because They’re Too Sexual, According To Kate:
~ Climax
~ Wet
~ The phrase “- is good”
~ Mounted
~ Action
* * *
while i do enjoy saying this myself, the phrase “intellectual intercourse” always trips people up.

Zit.
I **hate** the word “zit.”
It’s just … it just is.
I hate it.

“Intellectual intercourse”, aka “f\*cking each other’s brains out.”
