I'm glad you like it.

Have I answered any of your questions?

After contemplating it for a bit here, I think it's the boring-ness, same old, same old that is getting under my skin. The absolute boredom of witnessing the adolescent male brain. Ever see that hilarious clip of Andy Samburg as a teenaged boy directing all the freaky sex scenes in Game of Thrones? All he wants to do is see sex, boobs, ass, more sex, girl on girl, etc. etc. and it's very funny as he plays this 13 year old boy who is directing this stuff. "Sexposition" instead of 'exposition' they call it.

Yes, darling. I've seen boobies and cunts before. Yes, it's all very interesting and makes you feel funny 'down there' doesn't it? Can we move along now? No? You want to see more? For the rest of your LIFE?

Oh, ok. I'll just be over here. Becoming a human being.

eta: back to the original argument - why is it okay to define women by their sex organs but not other people by their skin color? Why is nigger a No No word while degrading women is OK? Why? Did John Lennon have it right?
