How’d you know? Have you been spying on me?

Seriously one time I hurt my right hand and so I had to use my left. That was weird and a little awkward. You see righty and I have come to an understanding about certain intimate acts which we really didn’t see a need to involve lefty with. Until the day came and it was inevitable.

Now we all agree to just pretend it never happened.

Yeah, but my comment was more directly towards **colonial** and others like him who may be offended by threads about sex and bodily functions and are completely against their mere existence. The thread titles are usually descriptive enough that one can tell if it has content that may potentially offend one, thus one can avoid clicking on the title in the first place and not have their delicate sensibilities assaulted. There are some threads I don’t care to read, so I don’t. **Colonial** might be a little happier if he did the same.

One of the reason I lurk here is because the SDMB was the first site dedicated to intellectual discourse I ran across that wasn’t afraid of taboo topics and language. For instance, a lot of posters here bitch about rape month, but I think its nice to be able to see the different points of view. It’s certainly better than another forum I frequent where discussions about rape get disappeared.

Did this poster not get introduced to the squid and goat? I think _someone_ missed the entire _purpose_ of ‘rape month’.

Yeah. The purpose of it is to vigorously shake hands.

I’m going to borrow the phrase I’ve seen on here recently… “He got in his huff and drove off.”

Aww.
