    Hey, where's my housing affordability initiative? Screw it, where's my cheese affordability initiative?

    I'm in favour of porn and sod anyone else's work filter.

    And it's possible Emma is being ironic/funny by suggesting 'it's the eyes' that make the model appear skanky. Sorry, but being a bloke it is not her eyes that grab my attention.

    Having successfully pronned up yet another thread...

    I wasn't being ironic, just to be clear - or at least, not then. I don't find anyone, male or female, attractive if there's nothing going on behind their eyes. But she could just have been incredibly bored. And yes, she has boobies, they're clearly there, but she's no Toni Marsh.

    But she is also lying on fake leopard-skin, and that can't be helping. It could be ironic, but I wouldn't bet on it.

    is she the porn women look at

    Taking 'people I know' as a very dodgy representative sample, that picture is down two men and up one unnecessary woman for optimal viewing.

    How to Drive Fast on Drugs While Getting Your Wingwang Pulled and Not Spill Your Drink

    I really like early PJ O'Rourke. I still follow his wise, sage advice and never put my genitals into anything I'm not absolutely sure they'll come back out of.

    where's the link Emma? I'd be interested to see what you consider skanky

    You ask, I deliver.

    It's her eyes. 'Skanky' is of course a terrible thing to say about another woman. I shouldn't do it. She could well have a degree in maths and another in astrophysics for all I know.

    Personally, I stopped taking The Harold seriously as a news publication when it chose to illustrate a story about the melting artic icecaps (the arctic icecaps not being a region known for including any solid ground) with a picture of some snowy cliffs.

    Stuff. Story - women look at pronz too. Picture - skanky under-dressed woman lying on a couch going 'here's my tits'.

    Yes. That's what we're looking at. Still, I guess some portion of their readership would be terrified that a picture of an under-dressed man would give them teh gayz.

    'The women seem very confident': and this is a bad thing, somehow? Meh. I'll take the philistine hell-hole, thanks.

    AND we have lesbian haircuts and no cleavage. WTF is a lesbian haircut?

    OTOH:

    Christchurch people have "spontaneity, madness and sexiness. They dress more smartly than other New Zealanders too".

    Yes, it is pretty easy to find the gay bars here.

    But Craig is once again right, the guy's prose just isn't up to this level of vitriol. Evelyn Waugh? He's not even PJ O'Rourke.

    Ha, now I only feel like a partial idiot, that's Nabokov, though I can't remember which book. But my gods, that prose...

    But while I appreciate the efforts of all my big strong sciency men, physics has always produced a weird buzzing in the back of my brain that stops me taking in information. Chemistry, biology, no worries, but physics? I seem to be basically incompatible with it. I've noticed the same phenomenon with my partner and grammar.
