He's been here for years, Aban, but I'm starting to agree with you.

I think that's the most coherent post you've made in recent memory.

To be safe, you might try just not hitting on strange women on street corners and not beating off in front of the television.

Carrie Anne Moss is sacred. Don't defile her with masturbation humor.

I said nothing about beating off in front of the television. The only time I saw The Matrix Radishlutions was in theatres!

OH NO!

Telling people in the row in front that you just spilled your ice cream gives you some chance of survival. Won't save you from me though.

You could always cut the hole in the popcorn bucket.

Question: Do they still serve popcorn buckets anywhere? I get those newspaperlike square bags through which the 'butter topping' leaks through, right on my pants. I guess it could cover up potential semen leaks, but that would be crossing the line.

Er.

Around here, telling people that you are the kind who spills his ice cream would be interpreted as you being a homosexual...
Don't ask me why, I'm not sure where it comes from.

I don't remember the name of the book, though.

It's called "The Matrix Comics" and you can buy the 12 stories as an anthology. The one you are referring to is by Ted McKeever.

Here's the Amazon.com entry:

Do you regularly look for people masturbating in cinemas, and then punish them?

--------------------
Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I would join them, or punish them.

I'm still curious as to what "popcorn topping" is. Does Canada have sweet popcorn, like over here, or does it just have the horrible, horrible salted kind, which is horrible?

Of course, the only reason he doesn't like salted popcorn is because he's a poor student and can't afford to buy both the salty snack in question and a thirst-quenching drink when he visits the multiplex.

Hmm, salty snack. Is it just me or does that sound quite naughty? 8)
