I almost though it had gone the way of so many other webzines.

Josh needs to learn how to use his tongue . . .

Josh needs to keep condoms around.

No wait. Josh needs to learn the same thing I did. Have. Still am learning. You can use your tongue like a surgical knife (and I can, metaphorically speaking). It doesn't change the fact that if you don't really love her and she don't really love you, it's just sex. It's just two people beating one another off.

And that's not necessarily a bad thing if it's what both mature adults agree upon. However, somehow, even if they both claim that's all they want, one of them inadvertently feels more than the other and they both end up empty and unsatisfied. Then in one way or another they 'break up.' One of them finds another guy/girl and think they will be better. Or one of them finds God and seeks solace and euphoria that way. Or one of them turns to drugs and the other can't hang. Or...

Oh wait. It was *just* a story right? Hahaha silly me. Forget I said anything. Damn good story, though.. I knew there was a reason why I took almost.org off my favorites list...

Some things are too good.

i think it's really funny that two boys are making this story all about the boy-prowess within the story ... and, by extension (pun not intended), about their own (alleged) boy-prowess as well.

Hee. You go Maura!

Heh, I didn't mean to make the story all about anything. I was just looking for a short quip to accompany the link, and I find things like this . . .

>I make my way down his body so I can blow
>his mind away, because I am a nice girl and
>that is the least I can do.

bothersome. Too many heterosexual men aren't willing to return the favor, and too many women are willing to accept it.

As for my own 'boy-prowess' . . . . there's some things I try to keep off the internet :)

Not me! I'm too stupid to realize there's something wrong with talking about one's prowess on the 'Net. I usually go down on her first, because a gentleman insures the woman is satisfied ...before he turns over and passes out.

Tact is dead and you, Zach, are only proof of this. You should stop while you're... well, while you're only slightly behind.

Tact may work for other people, but it's never done me any favors. Saying what I feel. That's just how I am. I'm cool with you. Be cool with me. =)

If you people weren't blogging, you could be having sex instead of talking about it.

What I saw: nice Fray-inspired layout, good use of color and space, discreet use of CSS, gentle humor in the descriptive text, original photography would help; overall, very nice, glad the link was posted here.

And in the time I took to write that, I could have been having sex.

Hopefully, better sex than that poor girl.

And hopefully, it would last longer than it took Zeldman to write that.

I liked it, and the page didn't take forever to load on my modem. I live in the slow part of the Internet.

mrmorgan: it took me four hours to write that post.

Tact?

Tantric metafilter?

Zeldman: in that case, merely double the time.

Ouch! It's painful to even think about such a thing...

zeldman: one hand or hunt and peck?
