death tribble Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 They say it's fake. They say it does not matter and it is not serious. But this is really intense. This is one of the Wrestlemania 5 promos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is really intense. This is one of the Wrestlemania 5 promos. "Fake" is a relative term that reflect a judgment of value (or, in this case, the lack of same). But even scripted, the athleticism and power of a professional wrestler at a high level is something to be admired. Some of the moves, if you are not prepared to deal with them, could be deeply injurious or even fatal. So maybe "fake" is not the right term.

This little number presents a few entertaining ergonomic opportunities. The external flange (aka the base) is really very small, without rounded edges. This makes for a very likely, rather unpleasant fishing expedition when the poor bottom finds that their own poor bottom has scuttled that cheap little submarine of pain to Davy Jones locker in one of many involuntary convulsions. Alternatively, consider the opposite scenario. The smooth little insertable has a very good chance of being launched across the room quite amusingly, at least in retrospect. Especially with the shocking amount of voltage, you could turn yourself into an agonized, convulsing cannon to the great amusement of anyone who would have stopped you if they were reliable partners. Finally, if ever there was a time to shell out a few extra clams, to not pay bottom dollar, it is certainly when playing with insertables and electricity. This little number (2?) will definitely leave the buyer looking like a shocking a-hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brainwashing disenfranchised minorities and forcing them to kill each other on the grounds that they are inherently morally bankrupt and a danger to civilized society isn’t holding up well?

Yep! I really like the Apothic blends, and that’s the most I need to spend! My (very rich, usually very frugal) friend poured me a glass of a ‘68 Margaux, in spite of my protests that it was a terrible waste of great wine on an ignorant tongue, and it definitely tasted like wine.

I don't drink, but what you mention is similar to a thing that happens to me which I refer to as "eating above my pay grade". There are very few expensive or artisan foods that I actually enjoy because the finer points are all lost on me. The more easily I can cook it the likelier it is that I'll eat it. Even letting other people choose my pizza toppings is like a challenge to my agency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnia Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 The more expensive a dish (or drink) is, the longer I'll take to finish it -- because I never know when I'll get another chance to have that taste of actual expense/luxury. Normally, for our anniversary, we go to this one Japanese place in Cleveland for omakase. It ain't cheap, so I savor and linger over each bite.

Normally, for our anniversary, we go to this one Japanese place in Cleveland for omakase. It ain't cheap, so I savor and linger over each bite. We have had a couple of upper-tier restaurants we've gone to over the years, but the best of them closed a few years back (though the chef has opened a new one that COVID has prevented us from checking out). And we have been following one sushi chef around from site to site here in Seattle over the last 15 years or so (he's on his ... 4th? place of employ since we discovered him). We don't do movies, theatre, or travel to speak of (even before COVID disrupted everything) ... all things considered, since we don't do props or minis, RPGs are a pretty cheap hobby, monetarily ... so it fits in a reasonable entertainment budget when you average it over a year.

tkdguy Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 Food and drink are like music. You like what you like, and don't let anyone tell you differently. It doesn't matter if you have a fancy meal or a plain one. If you enjoyed the meal, that's what matters. wcw43921 and Lord Liaden 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
