The sin of Sodom was, in fact, a lynch mob. I suspect the reason Lot offered his daughters was to point out to the mob how insane they were being, not because he thought it was okay for the girls to get gangbanged. Not that I try to make the OT make sense. Thank God I'm not a literalist. Literally.

If Dan Savage were any hotter, I'd have to read his books with oven mitts on.

Seebs said something adorably raunchy in the car today, and I made a mental note to jot it down here for the amusement of all, but that was hours ago. It's gone now.
...
It's a gorgeous day, and I've been drinking sweet iced tea all night; I think I'd better go walk off the caffeine-and-sugar buzz. Lately I've been testing the unwritten rule that says people with headphones are Not Really Here. So far, no one's attempted to interact with me while I had them on. If this streak holds, I might actually start to enjoy walking a mile or two a day, like I used to when I was aggressive and self-centered enough to actually scare off people who dared to, for instance, ask me the time or try to bum a cigarette.
...
Oh yeah, I remember what Seebs said. I was laughing at him for catching a frisbee-golf disc with his hand and hurting himself; those things are heavy and hard and have sharpish edges, they're designed to hit inanimate objects, not your hand. Catching them is stupid. "Stupid, but macho," said the Seebs. "While you in some ways resemble people who like macho..."
"Empirically... no," I drawled, glancing at his nerdy bishitude. "I have enough macho for the both of us."
The conversation turned to other topics. Some time later, he was nerving himself up to try unfamiliar foodstuffs, which is a real bungee-jump for an Aspie. I told him he could borrow some of my macho if that would help.
"I'll give it back to you later," he said in a campy sort of flirty way. I, of course, cracked up. Rah, in the back seat, didn't hear, and demanded what was so funny while Seebs and I laughed our asses off.
And yet, written down, it isn't all that funny. I guess the reason it amuses me so much is because we're such caricatures of ourselves sometimes. I like us. ^_______^
