This is an actual conversation from my bar last night:

...Just don't ask her about Darwin.

Who?

Charles Darwin.

Who?

Darwin. Theory of Evolution.

Is that one of those white man movies?

Odd.
I just took part in a bar conversation about evolution. Some idiot insisted that man has stopped evolving. His proof was that there have been no changes in the past 100 or so years...
Crosby
He might be right.

I thought it was Fredie when I first saw that picture.
elfnmagik
That's the first real reason I've ever seen for gun control.
Le Gimp
I'll second it.

Actually, the person who claimed there was no change in man in the last hundred or so years has not paid attention.

Look at the statistical change in height, weight, etc.

Anyone who visits a historical house like Biltmore House in Asheville NC, or the mining community of Southpark in Colorado, can't help but notice how small the beds and doorways (etc) were a hundred years ago.

And I heard on some radio show that this is the first generation to have it's life expectancy get shorter than the previous generation's, largely due to chemicals in our food, water and air. Can't say where they got that statistic, but it might be true?


When I saw that picture above, my first thought was how fat Peridot's gotten.
Le Gimp
The Lugar looks like a nice piece, otherwise someone confiscate the rest of it and bury them with him.

Looks more like a .22 Ruger target pistol.

He was a true idiot.
After 10 minutes of attempting to explain the fundamentals everyone gave up.
A.B. Normal
It's best to avoid the temptation to explain evolution
to those whose knuckles still drag.

Which lets out the majority of folks in the greater Xit City area.

Some folks are created by more "intelligent" designers than others.

From what I've read that is more due to diet than genetics.

And if lugee the luger shooter can produce offspring
(and we all hope he doesn't)
which way will evilution take his family weed of a tree?

If evolution thrives
on only the fittest survive
we're plumb out of luck
when the dumb learn to fuck

I hope evolution is still working its plan on us.
A.B. Normal
Don't do that.
Kirk does that.

More betterer.
Rho
No more couplets then, which I assume is to what you refer.
A.B. Normal
The only thing anyone ever assumes around here is the position.
Bognoz
Which is usually more of a
gang-bang and anal rape
affair than quaint couplets.
Wild Bill Turkey
Butt anal rape is a quaint coupling.
Bognoz
You misspelled "piquant."

Now put
down that pink
