Was it, though, Art. Quite a few of then said they were entrepreneurs. All claimed to be successful. Now, believe me I know why one wood not want to own one's own business, it's a huge headache. But for the right sorry of person, the feeling is unmatched. Now, why would a successful young business man or woman want to go of working for someone else? Not acting? Maybe. Maybe in the same way every season of Survivor had at least 3 bartenders.

It's reality TV. They have to pick just 12 or so contestants out of potentially thousands of applicants. If you really wanted 3 bartenders or 10 entrepreneurs or whatever else, it would be the easiest thing in the world. Not to mention, you don't have to pay them a cent, unlike actors (that's one of the reasons reality TV is so popular in the first place, it's so goddamn cheap to produce).

Worst King names: William the conquered, Alexander the Mediocre,  Henry the eighth... in line, Louis the Headless. Dunno where those came from.

We have a cookie jar here that somebody messed up on. It's a bear who looks cute enough I guess. But somebody printed the word WOW on his tummy upside down.

I forgot the very worst king name: Joffrey the Shithead.

I don't really understand why in some erotic comics, they put just a little line over the genitals as if they're trying to censor them. It doesn't even censor. It makes no sense.

Are you talking about manga?  Because I think they do that so they can claim to be following the law.

From what I remember reading one time, they do that because Japanese law is weird about porn and they're doing the absolute minimum censorship legally possible. Honestly, if it's a choice between a tiny, translucent black line and having the whole thing pixellated, I'd rather go for the line.

It's not Japanese law but American prudishness that caused this.

On the topic of porn comics: why do porn comics try adding "serious" storylines and shit.

Yeah, just what I want in "gay furry diaper vore hentai", some dumbass storyline about relationships.

Sometimes, they want to elevate pornography as an art form.  Other times, they're just pretentious.

Or more often than not, some people like their wank material to have a bit of context.

Some of us like plot with our porn. Personally I like an even mix of story and characterization to the actual sex acts.

Then again, I also enjoy reading stories where the sex/porn is just occasional thing and the focus is on other things. Pure porn without any kind of story isn't as enjoyable.

For example, I recently found a webcomic that has drama in steampunk Britain, robots, romance and sex, but it is not just some random people fucking each other.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!
