Quote from: Valmy on December 16, 2022, 04:22:53 PMI don't get why ass would be censored anyway. People say that on network TV...or at least used to back when people watched network TV I don't know what is going on there now.

Supposedly, an ass could be referring to a donkey, which is why it gets a pass on TV, whereas asshole does not.

You know, clams don't seem that happy.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Oh, so now Teach is telling me which clams I know. :rolleyes:

Berkut hasn't left (he was active in the last week) but he hasn't posted much the last couple of weeks.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar
