    Go to your bed, or the toilet, or some other place where you feel private and comfortable. Fondle your genitals. Think about your favorite pornographic picture, or perhaps somebody you know.

  6. there are two kinds of slashdot reading.... by fishboy · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    i think, sometimes, that the key to reading slashdot is knowing when to read at +3 and when to read at -1. this, for instance, is entirely enjoyable at -1. geekdom is hanging out at -1, no-holds-barred. really, surfing at +5, as i am in the bad habit of late, can be depressing sometimes. i think slashdot should move toward a system that tracks my changes to the threshold comment scores and display future stories based on my past prefs. and imagine the bitching over the system! more perpetuated wither slashdot hand-wringing, it would be great. anyway, palmela handerson, /. can be funny.
