[QUOTE=Shodan] Shouldn’t he be smearing himself with chocolate or framing his effluvia or something? I don’t know art, but I know what I like. Regards, Shodan [/QUOTE] It’s all a matter of taste really, one mans Picasso is another mans poo stain. ---

[QUOTE=Shodan] **Omegaman** , I thought the distinction was a whore is someone who will have sex for money. A slut is someone who will have sex for free, but not with you. [/quote] Actually, I believe the progression is as follows: Whore…has sex for money. Slut…has sex with everyone. Bitch…has sex with everyone but you. Regards, **SA** 😉 ---

[QUOTE=Maeglin] I am kind of comfortable with that. This just reveals the ultimate bankruptcy of the conservative movement, though. We _will_ run out of resources someday. But sadly, we will never run out of people. [/QUOTE] Yeah, but until then conservatism rules, and I like to live the for the moment! ---

[QUOTE=RTFirefly] **Scylla** , I must thank you for posting so often to this thread in your determination to prove that it’s a waste of time. Thank you for the lengths you’re willing to go to fight ignorance. 🙂 [/QUOTE] Your thread is still a turd. It’s just that Maeglin’s presence takes the stink off of it. Hell, we’ve come to agreement on working definitions of conservatism and liberalism, made headway on discussions of marginal utility and efficiency as relates to the relative merits of natural resources versus labor and we were about to discuss the proper wine to serve with broiled salmon (always a conundrum.) What have you and **Shodan** accomplished? Hmmmmm? ---
