I know they exist because my girlfriend has been to a couple in Minneapolis, but I live in Wisconsin and was wondering if there is any way to find some here in the state. If anyone knows of any outside of the state, let me know about those as well, the closer the better, but any will do. If you know of the name, city where the club is located, state if it isn't obvious...any other information would be helpful. I have already tried to locate information online through search engines, but nothing comes up, not sure if this is because they are trying to keep it illusive or if I haven't been using the right words in search to bring up the information.

A guys face... Did you enjoy it? Would you do it again? Ladies I know this sounds stupid. This could be for ora* or simply just sitting atop him. But it is a honest, serious question. If you are willing to give a respectful, honest answer, to the following it would be MUCH apprieciated. Was it pleasurable, would you do it again, how did you do it, who did you do it to, would you do it to a freind?... alright i think thatll do... thanks!

Dr. Pianka’s talk at the TAS meeting was mostly of the problems humans are causing as we rapidly proliferate around the globe. The bulk of his talk was that he’s waiting for the virus that will eventually arise and kill off 90% of human population. In fact, his hope is that the ebola virus which attacks humans currently (but only through blood transmission) will mutate with the ebola virus that attacks monkeys airborne to create an airborne ebola virus that attacks humans. He’s basically advocating for the death of all but 10% of the current population! And at the risk of sounding just as radical, I think he’s right.

Humans are far too populous. We’ve used up our resources, and we’re destroying the Earth at an accelerated pace. The more technology we create, the more damage we’re capable of doing. We now consider keeping the forest natural to save a species of catepillar more important that using that space for humans to live and till. And I’m in complete agreement with that. It’s the harsh reality that many people alive right now should be dead. And even harsher to think that the world would be better off with them dead too. Or think of all the babies being born every hour with abnormalities that 50 years ago would have kept them from living. Now, those lives can be saved, and we pat ourselves on the backs at how smart and charitable we are as a species that we can create and sustain life. Life has a built-in mechanism that keeps species from becoming too overpopulated, and it wasn’t until humans started messing with the system that it went out of whack. Now that we’ve killed off the majority of all top predators, we now must take on the duty of keeping populations in check and at the same time, allowing other species a fair chance at reproduction.

It wouldn’t have been so bad 15-20 years ago when we reached that threshold of sustainability if we as humans would have learned to control our population size then. But instead, we saw the Earth’s resources as unlimited and our authority over them exclusive, and we continued to reproduce when we should’ve stop. Dr. Pianka made a very profound comment during his presentation; he said that China has the right idea by limiting reproduction at 1. We’re past the point of replacement reproduction as a species. We’re too many for the number we’re at now! We need to decline in population. A virus is probably the fairest method of extermination (though still not completely fair, I admit) because it’s nondiscriminatory as to whom it targets. Rich, poor, black, white, brown, nice, mean, religious, agnostic - we’d all be targeted equally.

It’d be nice if humans could learn to manage our population as successively as we’ve learned to manage the population of literally every other species on this planet with whom we share. We’re very skilled when it comes to killing off deer, snakes, rabbits, and fish for population control. But we’re a stupid species when it comes to managing ourselves. An insightful observation was made during the talk that education should be the key to learning how to take care of the Earth, but the problem is that the educated have fewer children and the uneducated have many children. So eventually, the uneducated will take over the Earth. It may have already happened.

I'm working on my thesis. I found out that sustatinable prostitution can help in the development of a country, at least in its economy. I, therefore, think that sustainable prostitution should be promoted and that it should be legalized. Do you agree with me?

Somebody (usually uk - but not always) asks a reasonable question, and the immediate reaction (usually US) is to pull them up on their spelling.
I've just seen a question where the asker used the word 'tyre' and the first response was to correct him to 'tire'.
This really bugs me because the English spelling is correct and we have enough illiteracy in this country without being dragged down to USA levels (lets face it, they re-wrote the dictionary so that their way was right - hey ho, it's the war all over again)
Just so's this don't turn into an anti-English/anti-American rant, what I mean to say is why do people ignore the question just to show off their ignorance?
Is this bugging anyone else?
Bite me!
