And more importantly, is there burkha on burkha action?

That's illegal in France I believe. :contract:

Not during Carnival though.

Why, this calls for a series of stock photos of wine glasses strategically featured next to a variety of pretentious shit.

It's very important when cutting a slice of cheese off a wedge to maintain the wedge shape.  You never castrate the tip.  Cut slices off the sides to maintain the tip.

Nah, from a bunch of French guys I spoke to, this is purely a matter of etiquette - basically the farther from the tip you are the shittier the cheese so you want everybody to have an equal opportunity there. If you are on your own, go nuts.

Etiquette is unimportant? :huh:
When you're on your own and don't impact others, yeah? :unsure:

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

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
