Plungers suck, but you have to place them just so and pump them a few times.

That'd be why they're called plungers then?
That reminds me....I need to buy a new plunger. The last time I tried unblocking a sink with the plunger I have here, the bastard had gone so stiff it just stayed scrunched up after i pressed it down.

Not to be confused with the dreaded Bus Plunging phenomenon. (I think it was Leno's Headlines book, when he was sort of funny...busses never wrecked they always 'plunged' off of something.)

I'm glad at least Foot is keeping things dignified on this thread.

A very worthwhile movie though. I intend to see it in full at some point. The acting is stunning. It's brilliantly directed. I see why Iran doesn't want it showing over there. It exposes the reality of a form of punishment that is almost uniquely applied to women and is an absolute instrument of gender control and gender terror. The way the village as a whole is involved. The way even her sons are encouraged to hurl a stone. The hatred and anger in the faces of many of the men and even a few women, at this 'whore' who had dared to transgress their codes. Their jubiliation at what was clearly seen as an expression of God's greatness; his law, his justice and his power. The utter lack of empathy amongst those throwing the stones for bloody and weeping woman buried up to her waist in the ground: her body rocking and reeling back with the impact of each stone. Anyway. Sorry. Bit of a rant. Your selection of people who can suck it got me thinking. That hatred of gender transgressing women is clearly founded on a deep-seated fear of the female; fear and suspicion. So I say all those men who look at a woman and see an Other not worth their regard can suck it. And so can the fathers and mothers who raised them.
