I just didn't read the article at work, and waited till Sunday night when I was at home. Seeing the front page at work isn't a big deal, since I usually have time to minimize by browser before someone comes into my office.

Hey, your site, man. Just saying it could cost you people.
As for suggestions, just change "fucking" to "screwing" or "F-ing" or "doing it" or something that gets the point across, and yeah, just change it on the main page.

Syd, you put that title back the way it was ASAP! It was perfect the way it was and now it's just...WEAK.

Anyone offended by the phrase fucking like a porn star probably would not be appeased by making love like a porn star anyways.

This discussion reminds me of Matt Stone and Trey Parker introducing Chicken Lover on the DVD. They talk about wanting to call the episode Chick Fucker and being forced to call it Chicken Lover for television. I'm glad you changed it back. I don't think anything that happens in porn movies can be described as making love.

my thoughts:
a) People take turns throwing away the condom?
b) (the circular target is the clitoris) It's moments of frankly pointing out the obvious that make Syd's articles so wonderfully awesome to read.
c) I've seen plenty of porn movies where the men uses a condom
d)"Love Gun® is a registered trademark of KISS Catalog Ltd." And Gene would totally sue, too. Piece of shit.
e) CONSIDER YOURSELF A HERO... IN BED. Gretaest. Ending Link. EVAR!

a) Yes, but not "usually". It really depends on you, your partner, and your mutual neuroses. It's one of my favorite lines in that article though.
b) Thanks!
c) As I said, that generally only happens when there's been an AIDS in the industry or when it's Bangbus or some variant thereof where they want you to believe they just pulled some random girl off the street. In the 90s, Vivid Video used condoms in all its videos to raise awareness about safe sex, but I think they've moved away from that.
d) Gene could still sue. Admitting it's a registered trademark doesn't do anything unless I paid him for its usage, which I didn't. It also might not actually be a registered trademark of KISS Catalog, Ltd.
e) This isn't really a response to your comment, but are you in the middle of finals? You hadn't posted in like 5 days, and I was getting ready to send out search parties.

No, finals were last week. I've just been flaky from the site recently, not out of shame or joy, I just was. I'm actually very active on so many other boards that seem to have ongoing discussions I feel the need to run my mouth about. (metalsetslists, metalsludge, digitatldreamdoor). I don't mean to be an ass but coming here has been demoted to an kind of an after thought. Hell I was just coming to post on the forums when I bumped into the main page by accident and saw the Contra article.
Also, 5 days ago sounds like the time I've started playing Super Paper Mario again. I've been playing the fuck out of that game (I would like to use this opportunity to say fuck the 100 pit of trials to high hell)
But I appreciate the concern

It's fucking unpredictable though. 2 Days I was going through the Flipside version with a bunch of health items just to level up and get Dashell. I made it to level 99 before I got killed. Yesterday I tried again with the exact same stats and items and couldn't even get to level 75.

There are a lot of what if's in life Donny. What if I hit you really hard in the face, knocked yo shit to the back of yo skull? What if I....had you girl gargle my nuts? The fact remains, you are a fuckin mutant. |

Enh, the flower guys are manageable, at least the ones that aren't gold. The baddies that piss me off are the little black guys that appear out nowhere and zap you with blasts. They aren't like the Boos where you can just plant a bomb and KABOOM! they die, because they appear in random places.
On a seperate SPM note, I'd like to say that the Dark Prognisticus is the worst RPG plot device ever. It turned Blumiere, a cliche but somewhat relatable demon in love, into the extremely cheesy and fucking lame Count Bleck, who can't help but say his own name every 5 fucking seconds.
If Heath Ledger's Joker got a hold of the Dark Prognisticus, he'd probably turn into Frank Gorshin's Riddler.

The title change is an example how making something more PC can make it sound less awesome but entice more of the populous . . . it's a damn if you do damn if you don't kind of thing.

Are you trying to make a point?
Really, I gave up a week ago.

No, I'm not trying to make a point, and certainly not one at your expense. I just thought it was funny.

After seeing the new title, I think Ralph Wiggum should get an editing credit.

It was changed for about 12 hours, from about 9 PM - 9 AM. It said:
