The bicycle lane problem is surprisingly common. Where I live, them schmucks had the bright idea of planting trees in the middle of the cycle lanes. Very useful. Especially when mildly tipsy...
"Bicycle lane problem"? Bah, you guys just suck at taking SPLIT decisions, that's all there is to it!
"Very useful. Especially when mildly tipsy..." See, you're just discovering the beauties of that winter sport called Slalom, my friend. (Public announcement: this year's championships sponsored by Duff Beer.)
As for the "vaguely phallic" elephant trunk-willies, "I have no idea what you mean, mister". And searching on Wikipedia for "Fisherman's wife dream" ain't gonna change that!!!
Then I intensely recommend you DON'T do a web search of any kind for Japan + "tentacle porn".
And after all, what's an octopus, but a giant Kitsune-style sperm cell?
It seems this highly popular trend for tentacled monsters/aliens in hentai was the consequence of a weird Japanese censorship law that didn't specifically prohibit "explicitness" itself, but only the portrayal of a naked man and woman less than 3 feet apart from each other. So much for THAT clever legal idea... Poorly constructed laws, eh?
Of course, the reasons are usually multiple. Author Toshio Maeda states his motive was that only "genuine" coitus was prohibited to him, so animal or robotic tentacles were a way around. Geoducks would make a very decent addition to the catalogue.
I'm betting several american States outlaw either sale of geoducks, or "visual advertising of that product"!... Can you imagine, an "Adults Only" seafood section at the supermarket? I can. :-P
That is because only Orientals count petroleum monarchs in their ranks. While "Asians" are... by Allah, I don't even know what they are exactly! Sushi moguls? Smelly business too, but in a different way.
What is this, you say? Oil monarchies are in Asia too? How mistaken you are! They are in ARABIA. Well, except of course for Brother Chavez's friendly country, and those anti-social outsiders in Norway who refuse to join OPEP.
Strangely, Norwegians eat some national dish called ludifisk, which is a bit similar to sushi, but more revolting.
Normally, "nip" is simply short for "Nippon", which is quite a neutral word. "Nippon" in French is only lacking in respect (sometimes) because it feels like an old-fashioned sophisticated word, what? I suppose the short version became derogatory in English simply from being a slang term naming the enemy in WW2, and then picked up by all who kept hating all Japanese after the war, a classic phenomenon. In spite of that little fireworks display in Hiroshima, which should have been considered as a symbol of all grudges ending. According to the Bushist church. :-/
I think when you do something harsh like that, you either have to keep hating to justify it, or you have to start hating yourself. Or forgive everybody, including yourself, but that's like work.
That's where poor construction of your moral self will get you... :-(
"Let bygones be bygones? Where in the Bible does it say that, bygod?" You'd be amazed at how many fanatic/fundamentalist Christians will omit to apply THAT part to the letter. (Islamists also conveniently forget a good part of the tolerant passages in the Koran.)
That's whar results from not reading the stuff yourself, and trusting holy-fire slaughterers too much. Too busy with "homosexuality is an abomination, blah-blah, flee-fight-fume-foam". "Abomination", same as eating unauthorized animals, like seafood. [Lev. 11:10-12] Except seafood is thrice abomination if you check the reference, while homosexuality (limited to MALE sex, not a word about "abominable dykes" to my educated knowledge) is only called "abomination" once in a single breath [Lev. 18:22]. So, is gay sex three times less bad than eating oysters, crab or shark fin soup?
Mind you, I do feel that this whole damn shark fin business is abominable. The way they "harvest" them and exterminate a vital aquatic species for some ... Quite interestingly, [Lev. 18:22] immediately states afterwards that bestiality/zoophilia is less bad than all the previous, for it is only "confusion". How kind of my Lord. :-) But don't rejoice too quickly, my confused brethren who love animals a little too much: both abomination and confusion are later specified to have death by lapidation for punishment. So much for THAT difference!
I'm tempted to whine "now *I* am confused!", but then I would fear for my own life. :-P
"Chuck Norris took Mother Nature from behind. We refer to the event as the Big Bang."
BTW, have you ever heard of Copepods? These microscopic crustaceans live in most of the world's freshwater. Upon which discovering, some extremist israeli rabbis demanded that they be removed from drinking water and their absence confirmed with certainty, otherwise drinking water could not be considered kosher. And how absent-minded of Yahve, who went so far in the Law's details as to give rules for wall leprosy (a moldy housewall), to forget stipulating that all drinking water had to be micro-filtrated in 3100 BC! "There ARE no mysteries, Scully. Only investigations poorly done. The Truth is out there. Amen."
Is Oriental bad because it is a Eurocentric reference? Here I'm acting as an Occidental, and from my vantage point on the Pacific Coast Japan is occidental and Europe is oriental.
What arrogance for UTC to be founded on such an arbitrary point as the banks of the Thames in London.
In Jim Craces "The Pesthouse" there is much talk of the New Lands to the West. It is obvious he is referring to Japan.
"from my vantage point on the Pacific Coast Japan is occidental and Europe is oriental." Read in a Lucky Luke comic, the Chinese launderer fleeing California with his chariot before the "Indians" attack: "Time to go west. Bye-bye, pink faces! - (Luke) Don't you mean pale faces? - Not wheLe I stand fLom!"
"It is obvious he is referring to Japan." Ah, yes, the Eastern Indias, west of the Western Indias. No wonder Columbus got confused and lost!
I once made a pretty decent Lego Johnny Five, with the pieces from a single space-series box. Can do it again, because I made a plan. Main default: I only had wheels, not tracks.
I don't see what's wrong with the avatars, they've never given ME any lip. Did you konw that in French, "going through many avatars" means encountering a lot of trouble? :-)
Among my many unusual friends, one speaks russian. That second image reads "prodoukti". That's either produce, or products. Pity, It would've been great if it said "complaints office"! :-)

"Is it just me, or are they vaguely phallic?"
Lol, more than vaguely I'd say.
I like the picture of the girl in the tilted bathtub. She's got a nice smile, and apparently a sense of humor, too.
I don't know how many toilets I've used with that same problem.

... I could have just taken your word for that.
:-D
Not one for kinky invertebrates, are you?

Yup, those nips are insanely kinky. Oi loik em.
Man, you sure have a wide range of fetishes!

I apologize to all my honored Japanese readers, I was not aware that "nip" is a derogatory term.
How is one supposed to know these things? Like "Asian" being OK, but "oriental" not? Where's the logic?
That is because only Orientals count petroleum monarchs in their ranks. While "Asians" are... by Allah, I don't even know what they are exactly! Sushi moguls?

Wow, these guys should be on Ritalin.

Nice new cam, Alex. Very... fitting. :-)

Pascal, thanks. It's one of six new cameras I made
It's weird, sometimes I see the avatars, sometimes not. Today not.
