svelteParticipantLet’s be perfectly safe and go back to what nature does…just sniff each other’s butt and be done with it.
September 7, 2012 at 6:06 PM in reply to: Posting for a colleague: What would you do for this tenant/landlord situation #751246svelteParticipantI would do 8.
That’s 1 + 3 + 4
svelteParticipantThat Drobkin joke is hilarious!!!
svelteParticipantsvelteParticipant[quote=squat250]…there’s a book collection i was reading at barnes and noble this weekend and laughing so loud i was embarrassing my wife. I was sobbing and crying with laughter and couldn’t regain my composure and so had to put the book down.[/quote]. I get that way when reading the site http://damnyouautocorrect.com in fact I have barred myself from reading it in public places.
svelteParticipant[quote=sdduuuude]I have a friend who summed it up best when deciding to put his son under the knife:
“It’s hard enough to get a blow job without being different from everyone else. I’m not going to make it more difficult for him … “[/quote]
Actually, this logic is backwards.
Fewer than half the males born in the US now are circumsized! So by circumsizing your kid, he’ll be the one that is different!
Both my boys are not circumsized. And they have both always had a very pretty girlfriend by their side who don’t seem to mind, it hasn’t hampered them in the least. One son has even thanked us several times for not having it done, saying that he appreciates the extra length and girth.
svelteParticipant[quote=Navydoc][quote=svelte]The argument that male circumcision is A-OK because it reduced disease is oh so wrong.
It’s like saying we can cut down on breast cancer by cutting off all women’s breasts.[/quote]
That will, in fact, dramatically reduce the amount of breast cancer. BRCA patients decide to do this often.
All kidding aside, this is how many public health decisions are made. In the absence of a percieved detriment to circumcision, the benefits may be considered to outweigh the risks. Not saying I agree with this, just what happens from a public health perspective. I’m not sure circumcision is quite comparable to bilateral radical mastectomy.[/quote]
No, it is not exactly equivalent. Very rarely are two situations equivalent.
But breasts really only serve a useful purpose when breastfeeding, right? So why not cut off female breasts when a woman has her tubes tied. Uses the same sort of logic.
My point is that you can cut off ANY part of your body and, by golly, you’ll never get a desease or illness from that body part again. Guaranteed.
(We should all shave our heads to eliminate hair mites…the list goes on…)
svelteParticipant[quote=desmond]Looks like I was right, each person presents their view, which they think is the correct one…Keep it simple, don’t involve others, stand firm and do what you think is right. [/quote]
Looks like you presented your view, which you think is the correct one. You kept it simple, didn’t involve others, stood firm and did what you thought was right.

svelteParticipantNo worries, Silver Crest is a perfectly safe neighborhood.
We have friends who live there and love it.
If you’re worried about only having one way in and out, I suggest you take a look at the emergency exit at the end of Saddleback Way – leads to the church down the hill. True it’s gated, but in an emergency that gate wouldn’t stop me. 🙂
If you’re worried about the train station, I have not heard about crime waves in SM around the train stations. Besides, Silver Crest is about a half-mile from the closest one.
If you still have reservations, contact the San Marcos Sheriff’s substation. They are more than happy to discuss crime and safety with you.
svelteParticipant[quote=squat250]hmmm.
my hispanic wife wants to paint the bathrooms atomic orange. there are other strange colors in paint cans about.
i was hoping for off-white…[/quote]
If she wants to go bold, just buy her a few cans of this…
svelteParticipantThought this thread was about the original sharpie parties.

August 28, 2012 at 12:20 AM in reply to: Feng Shui, is it important for you when buying a house? #750788svelteParticipant[quote=flu][quote=Brutus]Good design principles suggest that the sink, stove, and refrigerator be positioned so they form a triangle if you draw a line from each appliance to the others. This makes it easy to work in that kitchen because you can turn from one to the next with ease.
No Feng Shui, just common sense.[/quote]…and drop everything on the floor while you transition from frig, to sink to stove and back to sink and back to frig…..For me, I hate kitchens with a sink detached from a counter that isn’t connected to a stove..Especially when working with stuff that you have to wash in the sink, then cut on a cutting board, and then put into wok/pan/pot etc thereafter…[/quote]
Just how much shit do you drop when you’re cooking? Your style is a whole lot different than ours…
svelteParticipantYa gotta remember there are huge swaths of the country that can’t have / don’t have green grass year round. Frost, cold, lack of irrigation, a variety of reasons.
But those are the places where bermuda does well. It’s impossible to kill and does just fine (even though it’s brown half the year) with frost, cold, lack of water, poor soil.
Fescue is very beautiful yet finnicky. There aren’t too many places in the US where it grows well.
I remember my parents moving from Calif to the midwest when I was in my teens. They were gonna show those midwesterners how it’s done in Californ-eye-aye, so they had fescue shipped in for their new yard. After about a year, they raised the white flag, went down to the local store and bought some bermuda.
