an observation

people keep saying the old nibbs was cool and a pretty fly guy. but you see, i don't know what the heck you're all on about. i've always been the same and i don't see what i do differently now to what i did then, so if you could all stop saying that, that would be swell.

i just think people in this forum have become more and more serious, especially lord of darkness. if you could all loosen up a little this place would be a lot better. if anyone has changed its you lot, not me. thats a big fo sho

i think if certain individuals could focus their time and energy on being positive and not always being so disruptive and negative, the forum would be much better place for all. too many threads just hijacked nowadays with morons going off topic wrecking threads that didn't ever deserve such treatment. if you haven't got anything good to say, just don't say it.

That kinda negates your entire post there.

The problem lies in your tendency to gravitate toward and associate with said individuals though. That's what it seems like to me anyway.

IMO, the problem lies with nibbs wanting to gain negative attention purposely. If only he could realize that we're willing to put up with his sensible threads, but not the ones in which he talks absolute drivel on purpose for no apparent reason at all, there wouldn't be any trouble.

2. In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a woman's genitals,
but is prohibited from looking directly at them during the examination.
He may only see their reflection in a mirror. (Makes you hope you never need surgery!)

3. Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of a corpse. This also
applies to undertakers; the sex organs of the deceased must be covered
with a brick or piece of wood at all times. (A brick??)

4. The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation. (Whoa!)

5. There are men in Guam whose full time job is to travel the countryside
and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having sex
for the first time...Reason: under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for
virgins to marry.(Let's just think for a minute; is there any job anywhere
else in the world that even comes close to this?)

6. In Hong Kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her adulterous
husband, but may only do so with her bare hands. The husband's lover,
on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired. (Ah! Justice!)

7. Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England -
but only in tropical fish stores. (But of course!)

8. In Cali, Colombia, a woman may only have sex with her husband,
and the first time this happens, her mother must be in the room to witness the act.
(Makes one shudder at the thought.)

9. In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with a
woman and her daughter at the same time.
(This was a big enough problem that they had to pass this law?)

10. In Maryland, it is illegal to sell condoms from vending machines with one exception:
prophylactics may be dispensed from a vending machine only "in places where
alcoholic beverages are sold for consumption on the premises."
(Is this a great country or what? ... Not as great as Guam, though!!)

Lebanon is not a place in New Zealand, then.

Although I don't actually think the Maryland one is a good idea, it does make sense from the perspective of the lawmakers imo. The idea is, condoms in vending machines are believed to encourage sexual promiscuity among young people by certain conservative individuals, and this is percieved as a bad thing. Said people are not permitted to enter "places where alcoholic beverages are sold for consumption on the premises", so by only having the vending machines there, you limit them to people who are old enough to drink.

I like number 7, if it happens to be true.

You have a point there nibbs. It's a fine line to tread - not taking yourself too seriously, and ****ing everyone off. I think its a credit to you that you manage to walk that tightrope so well most of the time. Cheers to you.
