Smart kids are more likely to be heavy drinkers
Posted by crazyivan69 on 07:24 PM 12/24/2008
Thinking back to the kids I was in the honors program with so long ago in school, and how they're the same people I now drink heavily with... yeah, I guess that sounds about right.
Girl, 15, Faces Child Porn Charges for Nude Cell Phone Pictures of Herself
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:10 PM 11/26/2008
It seems to me that most of these laws are written by fathers who refuse to admit their daughters have any sex drive at all. Perhaps things would work better if the laws were instead written with the understanding that kids get horny at a very early age, but we should protect them from their poor decision making skills until we can teach them to make better decisions. Instead of watching a bunch of grown men stick their fingers in their ears and yell "LA LA LA!!! I'M NOT LISTENING!!!" anytime the subject comes up.

Scientists Discover Fish in Act of Evolution in Africa’s Greatest Lake
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:16 PM 10/08/2008
Oh, absolutely. It's species with slower reproductive cycles that are threatened more by climate change. As a species we've kind of opted to not evolve much anymore, and we rely on developing our brains instead. Modern science allows pretty much everyone to pass on their genes no matter how sickly or disadvantageous their traits are, we travel and mate with people from other parts of the world thus diluting any regional-specific adaptations that may have been cultivated over thousands of years, whenever the Earth throws something at us we just think our way out of it and come up with a house or a boat or pesticide. And that's wonderful! So far it seems to be the most successful survival strategy the Earth has ever seen. The dinosaurs tried big, the insects are trying small, and we're trying smart. But because we've given up on the whole "survival of the fittest" thing, there exists the possibility that someday something could happen that we can't think our way out of, and then the species simply vanishes. But life will continue, just not us. Earth won't even notice we're gone.

Aspiring chef dies hours after making ultra-hot sauce for chilli-eating contest
Posted by crazyivan69 on 03:42 PM 10/04/2008
I've heard of people having competitions like that, to make chili too hot for the other competitors to handle. I always thought it would be funny in a competition like that to make some chili and put bear mace in it, since that's all that makes it hot anyway.
I no longer think that would be funny. Guess I never thought someone would keep eating after the first spoon.

Ban unfeasibly large breasts from adverts, say plastic surgeons
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:34 PM 09/26/2008
I have a better solution: Any woman considering getting breast implants is required to spend 2 hours a day for 30 days checking out the Babe Gallery on whatboyswant. Check out the ratings, read the comments... find out what boys REALLY want, not what some ad agency thinks will sell their product.
PETA Urges Ben & Jerry's To Use Human Milk
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:24 AM 09/26/2008
The plan will completely backfire on PETA when Ben and Jerry's actually starts doing it, and fetishists travel hundreds of miles to buy the stuff.
But PETA still won't realize it backfired.
Just like when they paint naked hot chicks and put them in cages to show just how wrong putting animals in cages is. They still don't realize how ineffective the protest is no matter how many guys walk up, chuckle, and say "Baby, I don't see anything wrong with this!"
New Study Finds Low Interest In Blu-ray

Animal shelter houses dogs trained to have sex with women
Posted by crazyivan69 on 09:17 PM 07/26/2008
People train dogs to do all sorts of unpleasant and even dangerous things. This hardly seems like abuse compared to chaining them up, making them sleep outside, having them fetch sticks, sniff for bombs, track and attack criminals... or chopping their balls off as Tehskinbin pointed out. It seems weird and disgusting to me, it's certainly not my cup of tea, but it hardly seems like abuse by comparison.

Group finds Starbucks logo too hot to handle
Posted by crazyivan69 on 05:11 AM 05/22/2008
So by that thinking... if I express how offended I am that attractive Starbucks baristas aren't naked when they serve me coffee...
Come on, people, we can beat them at their own game! We just need to express how upset we are that the everyday world isn't as lewd as we'd like, and demand they change to fit our personal morality! If that argument works one way, it has to work the other; it's just a matter of complaining loudly enough, and the next thing you know...
Caution: The steamy beverage you are about to enjoy may be as hot as the employee serving it to you.
Absinthe’s mind-altering mystery solved
Posted by crazyivan69 on 11:46 PM 05/07/2008
My friends and I have sampled about five different absinthes and never hallucinated. And we sampled the hell out of some of those bottles. We got very drunk, and everything smelled like licorice, but no little green fairies started dancing around. The strangest effect is that I now like licorice.
I've read that many of the old horror stories associated with absinthe were invented by wineries who saw absinthe as a threat to their business.
FeFe's Sex Toy Review - Vibrating Hairbrush
Posted by crazyivan69 on 07:35 PM 04/25/2008
Interesting. I've heard a lot of girls start out masturbating with a hair brush, but this is the first time I've seen one that made for that purpose. Perhaps it could find a decent market for nostalgia value? Hell, the price is right. Nice find!

Scientists discover secret sex nerve
Posted by crazyivan69 on 05:08 AM 04/01/2008
Studies on this I've heard of involved having women sniff t-shirts worn by sweaty men. The women thought men with slightly different genetic backgrounds smelled sexy. The theory is this encourages people to mate with someone who will introduce a small amount of genetic variety to their offspring, but not too much. This provides the random combinations necessary for evolution to take place, but minimizes the risk of canceling out any strong genetic benefits might be lost.
But then they really have to dance around that second part about pregnant women favoring sweaty shirts from men who are almost genetically identical. It's supposed to be so women want to have their immediate family nearby to help raise their child.
Ok... let's recap: the unpregnant women want to wildly fuck a genetically similar man, and pregnant women want to... have a nice cup of tea with their brother. The room falls silent, the professor stares blankly at his notes, a cricket chirps somewhere in the background as everyone squirms uncomfortably in their seats. Everyone knows the second part of the theory doesn't quite jive with the first. Everyone knows what conclusion the test results really point to.
So drink it in! Seldom does science get as interesting as pregnant women getting horny from sniffing their brothers' sweaty shirts.

The Haunted Ms. Pac Man
Posted by crazyivan69 on 12:51 AM 03/13/2008
I found a follow-up on Craig's List today that was supposed to be the person who took the haunted game. They claimed after one night with the possessed machine, they wanted rid of it. They claimed to have put it in their back yard under a blue tarp, refusing to let it back in the house. It said they didn't want to give an address, but said they'd pick someone from all the interested parties and tell them where to pick it up, and would remove the post on CL once it was gone. They wanted no money for it. The post is already gone, so I can't get you the exact wording.
The Haunted Ms. Pac Man
Posted by crazyivan69 on 01:26 PM 03/12/2008
There's not a ghost in that video game... there's four! Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde.
Good story, but I'm inclined to not believe it just because it's such a good story. And even if you think it might be true, why not take the game? If it's really haunted, you can get rid of the ghost by getting rid of the game. That's easy.
And think of the potential of having a ghost in a box! Give the game to someone you don't like, or sell it to some scientific organization that wants to prove the existence of ghosts. It'd make their job a lot easier, and you could make a fortune!
AP probe finds drugs in drinking water

Yeah, reverse-osmosis is disgustingly expensive. It's the whole reason desalination plants to obtain potable water from the ocean aren't widespread. It's not that big of a deal. There's so many far more unhealthy things we do to ourselves every day - voluntarily - that I'm not going to lose sleep over this.
Americans Suck at Sex… According to Durex Global Survey
Posted by crazyivan69 on 07:19 PM 03/02/2008
Personally, I blame the commitment to work demanded by US employers these days. I'd be interested to see that data put along side something like average work week in hours by country. For shits and giggles you could throw in things like suicide rates, alcoholism, and depression; I bet you'd see a strong correlation between all of them.
Female G spot 'can be detected' says Italian scientists.
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:13 PM 02/25/2008
I've found it in women who like g-spot stimulation, and I've also found the same spot in women who didn't enjoy g-spot stimulation. So I can say with a good degree of certainty that I'm finding the right thing, it's just that having it rubbed isn't every woman's cup of tea.
I don't see any point in feeling cheated or getting anxious about it, though. I'm sure there's stuff some guys like to have done to them that I don't like having done to me, but I don't lose any sleep over it.
Police Video 'Captures' Naughty Cops

So they released the full motion security camera footage and that was ok, but snapping a cell phone pic is somehow worse?

Why not just chuck self-tapping screws out the window in front of other cars? That thing will kill people.
On the other hand, if you're a bored passenger on a long road trip it's a lot better than reading a book and won't make you car-sick.
And think of the rpm's you could get out of the vibe with 12 juicy volts instead of 1.5! I have a friend who hot-rodded his wife's vibe by hooking a higher amperage battery up to it, but it was nothing like using a car battery!

Circumcision Halves H.I.V. Risk, U.S. Agency Finds
Posted by crazyivan69 on 05:26 AM 01/07/2008
Hmm... surgical alteration of my penis, or wear a rubber. Tough call.
Sounds like an interesting poll: Would you rather A) Get AIDS, B) Have your penis surgically altered and maybe get AIDS, C) Wear a rubber properly and almost certainly not get AIDS, or D) Not fuck and not get AIDS ?
I'm circumcised AND wear condoms, but neither is for that reason. I only have sex with myself and my long term partner. So the surgical alteration is just for fashion, and the condom is to prevent the international communist conspiracy from sapping and impurifying my precious bodily fluids.

Scientists: Time Itself May Be Slowing Down
Posted by crazyivan69 on 09:19 PM 12/29/2007
The way I've always heard that accounted for is that since the telescopes are "looking back in time", then the expansion of the universe is slowing down (as explosions do). So, long ago things were moving away from each other faster than today. These guys seem to have taken this existing evidence and come up with a more sensational and far-fetched explanation. So what I want to ask them is this: if I'm in my car and I hit the brakes, is my car slowing down or is time itself slowing down? The correct answer is: the car, dumbshit!
Waiting Too Long to Have Sex Linked to Sexual Dysfunction

Invent a slogan for WBW's homepage
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:08 PM 12/12/2007
I think you're going the right direction with the not-a-gay-porn-site theme. When someone first sent me the URL for this place it was immediately followed by "It's not a gay porn site." Maybe just that? "What Boys Want - Not a gay porn site."
But wait... if a woman comes here and looks at the pictures of other naked woman, than in that instance it IS a gay porn site. So that slogan would only be true sometimes, depending on who is viewing the content. And what content they're viewing, for that matter. Ok, if I think about that any more blood will shoot out of my eyes. So I'll just go with that: "What Boys Want - Not a gay porn site."

'Ghost Face' In Human Skin-Covered Book
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:03 PM 11/29/2007
Shit...
The book part really gives it that extra psychological edge. Not that I'd want to be tortured and killed, but made into a book cover? It just seems even worse.
And it really gives me a new perspective on other people who openly incited violent insurrection against the British government. I know it's 171 later, but I just imagine everyone lining up to sign the Declaration of Independence thinking to themselves "Last dude who did shit like this was made into a fucking book!"
FeFe's Weekly Sex Toy Review - Tongue Joy

It's called the "Duo-Pleasure Ring", Pipedream Products makes it, and and apparently I paid $32 for it. Why I still have the box, I'm not sure. Looks like other people make things with the same name, but the one I have is equipped with a remote battery pack with a rheostat so you can adjust the speed on-the-fly, which I think makes it better than the other things I see when I Google it.
Man Arrested for DUI on Riding Mower
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:17 PM 11/26/2007
I tried to jack a friend's riding lawnmower while drunk once. Another friend and I were going to ride it to the liquor store for more supplies, but we couldn't even figure out how to start it. It was old, half broken, and over-complicated; which is why my friend's (relatively sober) wife didn't try to stop us.
But in this guy's defense, the logic seemed quite sound at the time. "We'll get arrested if we try to drive a car... so let's take that thing, it's not a car!"

Girl claims rape, then charged with rape.
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:54 PM 07/16/2007
That's why kids that young aren't supposed to be having sex. They aren't really equipped to deal with it emotionally. No one makes good decisions all the time when it comes to sex, but adults are supposed to be better equipped to deal with the emotions that come with (and after) sex. I mean, they even said LB's older sister suggested they go off to be alone. So it sounds like she didn't think anything seemed wrong. That makes me think the pressure to have sex wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Sometimes people do things they regret, and often hormones are the cause.

18 year old offers her virginity for £10,000

I've taught so many girls how to give blowjobs that after one more I'm going to apply for an instructor's card. And you know what? It's not fun anymore. It's work. If I'm going to pay for sex, I'd like her to know what goes where and how. I certainly don't want to be constantly going "Ok, put your leg like this. No, like this. No, up like this. Like this. Up here. No, not like that. Like this." I'm sure she's cute, but as this site proves, there's a lot of cute girls out there.

Airman in Threesome Claims Rape
Posted by crazyivan69 on 08:28 PM 06/02/2007
Yeah, it really sounds like three people got blitzed and did something one of them now regrets.
And the husband reporting it... you know, I had a girlfriend who claimed she had been sexually assaulted once until I insisted she press charges; then she admitted she wasn't assaulted and that she had just cheated on me and made up the part about not being a willing participant.
I have a feeling this woman got drunk, did something she quite possibly wouldn't have done without 20 fucking drinks (that's more than a full bottle of liquor, folks), lied to her husband about how things went down, and now she's in WAY over her head. But she's committed to the lie now and has to continue on with it. If that's the case, I just think it's sad that she's willing to ruin two other people's lives to cover her ass.

Yeah, I never bought that argument. Wiser men than all of us thought gunpowder, dynamite, and fusion bombs would be advanced and/or horrifying enough to make us stop fighting; and they were sorely mistaken. I think the flaw in their logic was assuming we were as wise as them. Wise aliens probably made the same mistaken assumption while inventing... whatever. It's not those wise aliens that I think would invade. It's the angry, screaming throngs of everyday aliens whipped into frenzy by by insane leaders.

People always complain about how modern media is so violent compared to the good old days, and how it's making kids go crazy and kill people. Well, there happens to be a movie just like this story. And ti's 59 years old. If you get a chance, check out "Rope".
Cop forced couple to perform sex acts
Posted by crazyivan69 on 03:14 PM 04/20/2007
Strange, but believable. A couple things don't quite make sense to me, though.
First "the four later told police they understood to mean “the officer wanted to see a sex act.”" That seems like an odd assumption to make. My first thought would be that he wanted money. My second would be that he wanted a sex act, not wanted to SEE a sex act.
Second... what were they doing in the park? Just having sex? I mean, I've been in parked cars with a chick and a friend of mine and his girl... but I was 16 not 25.
Still, stranger things have happened. I don't entirely believe their story, but I don't dismiss it either.
Drought uncovers drowned town

Did you ever look out over a lake, think about something buried underneath it? Buried underneath it. Man, that's about as buried as you can get.
New Sony DVDs not working in some players.
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:52 PM 04/18/2007
Eh, fuck blueray and hd-dvd. The security features on both are so overbearing that the end quality is about on par with DVD's. The problems with Casino Royale were invalid file structure (extra folder, extra files), an extra fake set of menus, a built-in player that auto-runs before you can do anything else, and some pretty cool but unbelievably annoying code that makes your computer constantly access the disc even when it's not playing, so it's unavailable for any programs to access the disc (if you're watching it on a computer).
Keith Richards: 'I snorted my father'
Posted by crazyivan69 on 06:15 AM 04/05/2007
My hero. Don't think I'd snort my father's ashes... but he's still my hero.
No one will ever know whether or not it really happened. It's very possible even he doesn't know if it happened. I read he's actually off blow and smack these days, so it does sound a bit suspect. Perhaps the statement was just to drum up free publicity for the upcoming tour and the Pirates movie? No way to ever know, I suppose.
Man dies after recording own addiction.

Yes, anything cooked up in someone's basement in that fashion scares the shit out of me. I hear it's more popular than ever, the drug of choice in many areas. I'm not adverse to recreational drug use, but frankly that stuff terrifies me.
Researchers scheming to rebuild internet from scratch.

Forget your stupid Internet! I'm gonna make my own! With hookers! And blackjack! In fact, forget the Internet!
Study: Men lust for hourglass curves.
Posted by crazyivan69 on 02:21 PM 03/13/2007
I took a Sex and Evolution class once. The prof, an active researcher himself (I think he studies pheromones), was going over that experiment with the silhouettes cable mentioned. After stating the results, a very thin girl objected "But guys like thin girls! Why else would so many guys think Calista Flockhart is sexy?" The prof chuckled and said "I never thought she was sexy! Here, we'll take a poll of this class." He pointed to the silhouettes and had the guys (probably 500 to 600) raise their hands for which one they liked. The results were almost exclusively for the curvy hourglass silhouette. The girl who objected and her skinny friends looked around the room like their world had just crumbled around them. The prof then explained that fashion designers favor thin girls because when a curvy woman wears a dress, guys aren't looking at the dress. Another reason I think all women should spend a month checking out wbw.
RIAA Boycott: Kicking Things Off

What actions are really to be taken? I already never buy CD's. The last CD's I bought were purchased over the course of the last decade. One used CD in the summer of 97, one new in the fall of 97, and one impulse buy for $3 in the checkout line of Walmart in 2005. The three total under $25 after tax, so that's $2.50 a year.
My one friend suggested pitchforks and torches, Bastille Day style; but I'm not sure that's the direction they're going with this.
Colossal squid found in New Zealand.
Posted by crazyivan69 on 04:45 PM 02/24/2007
It was only December that they finally hauled up a Giant Squid alive, now a Colossal Squid within 2 months. And 2 decades ago these squids were nothing but drunken sailor stories. I don't really buy the bigfoot stories, but it has to make you pause and think for a moment.
Mom afraid of losing boyfriend, offers daughter.

Setting aside the obviously very wrong parts of this for a moment... it said written agreement. Written. Why would you write that shit down??? Drug dealers don't give receipts, hookers don't sign up for the better business bureau, why would a written contract for underage sex seem like a good idea? From underage sex to creepy relationships to criminal stupidity, every part of this screams WTF.

Smooth move. I hear their business model for next holiday season is to invade Russia.
Proposal for porn domain revived
Posted by crazyivan69 on 03:11 PM 01/11/2007
I think as a domain that can voluntarily be chosen, it would be a great thing. Many porn sites would want to have a .xxx address just for marketing purposes. I suppose that would help the see-no-evil parents who can't figure out their small children shouldn't go to womenfuckingdonkeys.com. I expect that womenfuckingdonkeys.xxx would be a lot more obviously obscene to some, but making anything mandatory is usually a very bad idea.

There's a few big shops near me. If one has it, that'll be part of my girlfriend's present. Just because it's cool looking.
