- Sex?
- Three to five times a week.
- No, no… I mean male or female?
- Male, female, sometimes camel.
- Holy cow!
- Yes, cow, sheep, animals in general.
- But isn’t that hostile?
- Horse style, doggy style, any style!
- Oh dear!
- No, no! Deer run too fast.

I was having a wank and I shot off in her eye. Nothing to do with the OP, I just thought I'd share.
It's a piece of piss to be cowiz, but it's not cowiz to be a piece of piss. Or something like that.

Here's a puzzle. Punctuate this sentence so that it makes sense:
John while Jane had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher
(solution below)
John while Jane had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher
(solution below)
Trigger Warning!!!1! :
I think that language has a lot to do with interfering in our relationship to direct experience. A simple thing like metaphor will allows you to go to a place and say 'this is like that'. Well, this isn't like that. This is like this.
