The tips of those cocks look a bit chafed. The shafts look a bit jaundiced, for that matter.
They should get those warts frozen off too.
The helpful measurement in cm is a nice touch.
"Hey, kids! Ever wanted to build a strange, chafed, jaundiced cock with weird warts and root-like growths protruding from it? You're never getting laid!"
Sure to perform their advertised function if one brings them along on dates.
Oh man those would rule for speed dating.
And I thought this was becoming a family-friendly site (what with, you know, the recent emphasis on marital harmony).
Wait, is 7 personalized spam, or a genuine suggestion?
I was wondering that myself, mrh.
Oh man those would rule for speed dating.
If you're tired of bringing your Rubik's cube along, sure.
You could get Super Cock Blocks and an Erector Set and make them fight.
Amazingly highly targeted spam. Read you spammer, what the hell is that page?
Holy crap, the spam has become self-aware.
thought if people enjoy cockblocks
should enjoy children songs too
wrong assumption?
hope listenable
read is SkyNet. This is it. The machines are taking over.
Read might also be cyberspace, or Continuity.
Tweety, didn't I warn you not to take the red pill?
thought if people enjoy cockblocks / should enjoy children songs too
Really, though, this is pretty impeccable logic. What's more juvenile than cockblocking?
read, we're not making fun of you. This is something human intelligences call "gentle ribbing." Please don't make every phone on the planet ring. It's freaky.
Come back, gentle future machine! Come back!
OT, but leblanc mentioned bánh mì earlier, and got me to craving. Here's dinner, mes amis.
It would be better food porn if I'd changed the white balance before taking the picture, but what is this, fucking Saveur?
Did you make those yourself, Jesus? What'd you use for the Asiaioliaise? I've been wanting to make some bacon banh mi.
Nice sandwiches, to be sure, but the previous picture the photostream is really one in a million.
30: I didn't; they're from the best Vietnamese bakery in town, which John mentioned earlier today.
31: Thanks, I was so glad they didn't stop doing it when I grabbed the camera.
But there're only two viewable photos in my photostream? Hmm. Have to fix that.
The songs linked in 7 really are very nice. I, for one, welcome our new killer robot overlords.
32 is perfect. And Jesus, you sadly underrate your food porn.
And Jesus, you sadly underrate your food porn.
Some prefer to think of it as food erotica.
38: Call it what you will, all I know is... I'm going to need a moment.
Jesus' daughters are cute, but they look guilty to me. Their feigned innocence is a dead giveaway.
Not a single person asks if the banh mi has MSG before they line up to eat it. This is how things happen, my friends.
I certainly hope it does.
Mmm. MSG.
One of the strangest food moments of my life was eating MSG on Saltines when nobody could afford any other food. It tasted quite a bit like cheap Chinese takeout.
The cake is a lie.
Maybe. But it's one I've been preparing for over a year.
All the best lies are well-planned, yes.
Geeze, somehow I made it all the way throught eh earlier discussion of banh mi, including a photo, and didn't remember that I've actually eaten it. Yum.
Jesus's Banh Mi pictures are vastly more appetizing than ogged's were.
You need to come up to Portland, O. We'll fatten you up.
Oh, now you're inviting the Californians in?
Oh, now you're inviting the Californians in?
Selectively, and only during the rainy season, so we know they won't stay.
It's ok, you're safe, I can't handle the rain. I would like to find some good banh mi near me, however.
53: Banh mi is one of those things I'd be tempted to make if it weren't so cheap and readily available. If fluctuations in the banh mi market put it out of my reach and force me to start producing it at home, I'll send you a recipe.
Speaking of once-cheap commodities, I noticed that gas prices in town today have reached ten times the lowest price I remember from my childhood. This makes me ponder my age first, the global energy economy second, but a man's got to have his priorities.
35: I just played that through last week. Brilliant! The Robo-overlord voice was, I thought, perfectly written and performed.
A search for the first track of the CD linked in 7 turned up a video: Пластилиновая ворона.
Subtitled version of the part about the crow, or maybe a dog, or maybe a cow.
I think I might start a blog dedicated to finding this read fellow. I think I'll call it "where is read?".
I for one welcome our new robot overlords.
Robots apparently have quite easily hurt feelings.
Ha. No coffee yet, and was wondering why someone hadn't used that line already. I ban myself while awaiting instructions from my new masters.
UnfoggeDCon talk:
OK, not quite booked but have things planned etc and will be booking this weekend. Going to be in NYC en famille from 15-19 Dec, so up for a family-friendly meet-up if anyone's up for dinner or skating or a museum trip or something. And I'm going to fly down to DC by myself, just over the night of the party. Recommendations of places to stay gratefully received! Anyone fancy sharing a room?
65: I'd be up for a family-friendly NYC meet-up.
Not to self - do not stop in middle of typing sentence, have conversation, then resume typing. You repeat yourself and look illiterate.
IA - cool!
Still laughing at Cock Blocks.
67: Skating at Bryant Park? It's cheap and fun, although with the weather we've been having it may be damp.
69: Skating would be great (if that works for Asilon?). I couldn't make it on 15 Dec, but what about Sunday, the 16th?
I think I could make a family-friendly meetup then. I haven't ice-skated in years!
Unless, of course, "family friendly" means "a meetup without AWB." I'm quite nice and good with tots!
No worries, AWB. You can always rent a kid at the rink.
I'll just pick one up here in the Slope where they're cheap.
You're really super, super cock block.
Wish I could make it to the NYC ice skating meetup but I'm going to be in DC that weekend. Boo! Besides thinking it would be awesome to hang with asilon and IA and the kiddos, I went ice skating last winter for the first time and thought it was great! Woo ice skating!
Also, from the pictures I've seen, asilon's kids and apostropher's kids should totally get married and have babies and create a race of humans so cute that people melt at their feet.
Shouldn't we be hating the not particularly well-camouflaged though workshopped near unto death thwarted bitterness of this week's "Modern Love" by now?
Sunday 16th at Bryant Park it is.
Becks, heh, cool plan.
ogged, if you haven't had good bánh mì, you should just wait, and then go to Ba Le in Chicago. It's supposed to be the best, although I am partial to the pâté-related sandwich from Fan Si Pan, although I never go there anymore because I'm never in that 'hood.
Most times I wish I had a car. Because of the prevalence of tasty food relatively near me, something has to be out-of-this-fucking-world for me to bother more than, like, a mile and a half to go there. But I will, for places like Feed (an entire chicken, the best you've ever tasted, and three southern sides for $14? Fuckin' a), and Lem's (best ribs in the universe, and CHEAP).
And I will occasionally haul my ass all the way up to Evanston for wings at Buffalo Joe's.
Leblanc you crazy, there's got to be good banh mi closer to him than that. Think of where the man lives! I'm not suggesting he shouldn't go to those lovely looking Chicago joints, but he shouldn't wait until he's there!
I'll be in Chicago in a few days, but the first review at the page you link trashes the place.
ogged, there are always haters. Are you going to let that stand in the way of a delicious sandwich?
My local (to work) bahn mi place just made the big price change from 2.50 to 3.00 for large (think foot-long, but a bit longer). That place is amazing. They also do buy 4 get one free, but we rarely have enough people.
Indeed I am. Sounds like everyone in that thread who's had banh mi before thinks the place is pretty mediocre. Anyway, it's not close to where I'm going to be, so I guess I'll have to manage here in the land of plentiful banh mi.
Ogged should really wait on the bánh mì until he can eat at Kim Anh or Thai Tai on 17th Ave in Calgary. Compares favorably with Vietnamese cuisine from just about anywhere in North America (at least reputedly -- I can only compare within Canada).
This thread is making me really hungry. It's mostly my own fault, though.
You know, I'm just going to wait until I have a Vietnamese manservant.
86: They are big. 1/2 a baguette, stuffed. Two of us can eat three, but not five. I'm usually ok with just one.

Read's got the argot down! Awesome, robot punster!
NYC hotel booked this morning, and just booked my flight to DC. Woot! 3 weeks today until we're off, having lots of fun making plans.
how do you recognise each other at the Bryant park?
Holding the U banner?
or whispering a secret code
or may be everybody around here are graphically known to each other
whispering a secret code
I'll be going with "Knives out, motherfuckers" myself.
and the cont-answer should be what?
and how do you choose whom to whisper
just visual compatibility
or other signs of the belonging
I think I'm going to start a zine of the selected works of read. 100-101 might have been its masterpiece.
I've found it's actually far easier than I first imagined to spot people I haven't met, even if I don't know what they look like. You're both looking around for people, for a start. But emailing beforehand and saying stuff like, "I'll be the one in the enormous red hat" generally works well.
Why, you gonna come and spy on us, readbot? I guess robots can't hurt humans, at least if they've been programmed right.
i admit i have some ogged stalking tendencies
progarmmaed that way
but this time wanted just ti study meetup techniquesd
