Boring pink borers.
I think Japanese girls are boring too; not even bukake will save them.
Some good scenese are worth waiting for, especially when the best content is one fifth of the full film and at the end.
I so-wanted to do this to Ella of Frell. (perhaps even the fairy-mother too!)
It just ain't the same ol' thing in prison. Why can't the males' prison be oriented to watch the females' prison? Gahhhh...
Go anal! Go anal! Did you hear an echo in here? I didn't.

So why in the world is there still a company named MS? they haven't made anything good for years and years. but still they are alive and kicking.
How come every time Paul Graham writes an entry in what is effectively his blog it gets slashdotted? He's boring! I don't want to hear any more about LISP and what a clever gee-whiz businessman he is. Stop facilitating his self-congratulation.
We need to reduce the value of the American workforce as much as possible while at the same time reducing the value of any individual worker worldwide. The best way to do this is by increasing the size of the workforce, more competition for workers is good. Competition is essential to capitalism.
The best thing we can do right now is cut taxes, get rid of social security, and privatize medicare and the healthcare system. I think we also need to get rid of the drug laws and remove the requirement for labels on food products.
Why don't you get back to us after you've successfully launched and sold a successful startup? Until then, I'm simply going to disregard all your assurances of how easy it is as just so much bullshit. Or, to quote the old adage, if you're so smart, how come you're not rich already?
I've abandoned my search for truth; now I'm just looking for some useful delusions.
We need to reduce the value of workers. Look, the sky is falling, the environment simply cannot sustain 6 billion people living as we do in the USA. This means the population size is too big and as productivity increases the value of the worker will decrease, allowing us who have jobs to live like kings.
One of the problems our company has always been faced with is trying to get the very best people. It seems that the talent pool of people who send in resumes for posted jobs are extremely mediocre indeed. As a small company we cannot afford to hire the wrong person.
We can only afford to have the very best people and therefore we no longer advertise our positions. We actively and agressively recruit people with proven track records who have recently become available or currently have jobs elsewhere. Through a careful screening process that even the prospective employee may not be aware is happening until he is approached with an offer, we ensure that the prospect employee is compatible with our with out company culture and in tune with our core beliefs as a company.
We do not believe in medicority and therefore we do not hire ordinary people. We also do not believe in subsidising the ordinary, that's what unemployment lines and soup kitchens are for.
