<p>Celebrities tend to be endlessly, tediously positive: Every day is a Gift, every project a Personal Best, and every costar a Genius. Alec Baldwin is not afflicted with this syndrome. At 51, he’s a failure, self-described. He’s also at the peak of his career, a peak he reached by scaling a K2 of catastrophe, personal and professional.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px;">You see, two decades of relentless mistakes have earned him multiple Emmys, Tony and Oscar nominations, and a much-anticipated gig cohosting the Academy Awards with Steve Martin — a lifetime of stutter-stop achievement Baldwin calls “all this other bullshit.” None of it mitigates his sense of having fallen short of triumph. But the star of <cite>30 Rock</cite> (and the new rom-com <cite>It’s Complicated</cite> with Meryl Streep) is OK with that. In fact, he’s thrilled. That’s because each Baldwin Fail — beginning in 1991 with the loss of the Jack Ryan franchise to Harrison Ford, which sank a promising career as a leading man — seems to have spurred a Baldwin Save. In that spirit, Baldwin ushers <cite>Wired</cite> through his greatest flops, leading by example on how to fail, fail again, and fail better next time.</p>
<p>.failGraph {float:right;width:400px;margin-left:12px;margin-top:4px;} 	.failGraph img {display:block;width:400px;} 	.failGraph p {margin-top:0px;padding:4px;background-color:#000;color:#fff;font-size:1.2em;} 	 	.FSCont { 		margin-top:32px; 	} 	.FSone { 		display:block; 		padding-left:9px; 		border-left-width:30px; 		border-left-color:#000; 		border-left-style:solid; 		border-bottom-width:1px; 		border-bottom-color:#000; 		border-bottom-style:solid; 	}        .FStwo { 		display:block; 		padding-left:9px; 		border-left-width:30px; 		border-left-color:#666; 		border-left-style:solid; 		border-bottom-width:1px; 		border-bottom-color:#666; 		border-bottom-style:solid; 	}</p>
<p class="FSCont"><strong class="FSone">The Fail</strong> <em>My entire film career.</em><br />
I made films from about ‘86 until ‘99. And then things started to really wind down. When your fortunes ebb in the movie business, it’s like <cite>The Sixth Sense</cite>: You’re dead and you don’t know it.</p>
<p><strong class="FSone">The Save</strong> <em>My television career.</em><br />
<cite>30 Rock</cite> doesn’t have the biggest audience, but we have an audience. And my God, what a difference it makes. I walk down the street all day long and people tell me how much they love the show. Not that I need to wake up every day and have every bird in the trees and every horse riding along the bridle path wink at me and say, “Oh, Alec, I loved <cite>30 Rock</cite> last night!” But it’s nice.</p>
<p class="FSCont"><strong class="FStwo">The Fail</strong> <em>Mercenary acting.</em><br />
I needed to make a living. People don’t realize actors are like plumbers. When you invite a plumber to your house and say, “I want you to put this sink in my bathroom,” the plumber doesn’t say, “I’m not going to install that sink, it’s hideous. You have the worst taste in sinks!” No, he just says, “OK,” and he puts it in.</p>
<p><strong class="FStwo">The Save</strong> <em>Making a terrible romantic comedy.</em><br />
<cite>My Best Friend’s Girl</cite> had one of the worst scripts I’ve ever read in my life. The movie was a huge disaster. Scathing reviews. And I realized: I’m done with doing it for the money.</p>
<p class="FSCont"><strong class="FSone">The Fail</strong> <em>My personal life.</em><br />
I mean, I’m divorced. I was married to someone [actress Kim Basinger]. I got very Zen about it. It doesn’t really matter who’s to blame. But in many ways my marriage mirrors my experience in the film business. I think to myself, How many years do I have left? What’s out there that I want to enjoy?</p>
<p><strong class="FSone">The Save</strong> <em>A very productive midlife crisis.</em><br />
I had the realization: God, I’m 51 years old and I spent 30 years of my life doing things I didn’t want to do. The things you do to please other people! I said to myself, Well now I’m just going to have a good time. That was the most freeing thing. For the first time, I wanted to do whatever I felt like that day. I wrote a book, <cite>A Promise to Ourselves</cite>, this critique of the family law system. I want to write more books. I want to go back to school. I might even run for public office.</p>
<p class="FSCont"><strong class="FStwo">The Fail</strong> <em>A run for public office.</em><br />
I will try to sell the American public on this idea: Sacrifice more! Make do with less! For the good of the country! I’ll run for office, and I’ll go out there and bomb.</p>
<p><strong class="FStwo">The (Likely) Save</strong> <em>Another sitcom.</em><br />
Another sitcom. Probably a sidekick role on Jack McBrayer’s Kenneth spinoff. We’re all going to be working for the <cite>30 Rock</cite> page.</p>

<div>Alright&#8230;I don&#8217;t care if you guys believe me &#8230; it&#8217;s real. This is the the most embarassing thing that I&#8217;ve ever</div>
<div>experienced&#8230; it was a horrible night for me.. and I&#8217;m sharing it with you guys because I don&#8217;t want any of my misc brahs to have to go through this.. especially since it all could have been EASILY prevented. I have added MS paint images so that you have a better idea as to what happened. It&#8217;s very long, but I&#8217;ll do my best to recount all of the important details. no ****ing cliffs&#8230;.. read it to save yourself from something like this&#8230;</div>
<div id="post_message_421311261">
<p>Anyway&#8230;<br />
If you&#8217;ve been following my social anxiety thread you would have learned that I got an asian girls number during my last update (the encounter wasn&#8217;t recorded unfortunetely because my Camera froze). But anyway, it&#8217;s been over a week and I was feeling like taking a break from exam studying, and I figured that if I didn&#8217;t call her before exams were done then I wouldn&#8217;t get a chance to see her until after the break (which would be too long perhaps). So I called her up and asked her if she wanted to take a break from studying and meet me for coffee. Well she said yes, and we met at a campus cafe. We had some small talk, and it went well overall. After that she said &#8220;hey my roomate is making some chinese food for dinner because her boyfriend is over, would you like to come by and try some? she usually makes way more than needed&#8221;. Now at that point I felt like I had to take a sh!t, but there was no way I could turn down this opportunity; it seemed like she was into me and this would be a great opportunity to get to know each other further. So I decided to try and hold my crap as long as possible (I don&#8217;t crap in public toilets) and accept her invitation.</p>
<p>Well we went back to her place, had some food (very good btw)&#8230; and ****&#8230; I had to take take a sh!t really badly&#8230; and I also had to take a piss really badly (I had been holding that too since I didn&#8217;t bring my pee bottles with me to the date)&#8230; I really didn&#8217;t want to use her washroom because I didn&#8217;t want stink the place up&#8230; but it became so unbearable to the point where I could feel the turd popping out of my rectum.. to make matters worse I was actually starting to get an erection (I&#8217;m not sure why.. but that&#8217;s what happened). So I rushed to the washroom&#8230; and thus begins the worst possible scenario imagineable.</p>
<p>I pull down my pants step up to the toilet and I am then faced with an ominous predicament; I have to extremely badly take BOTH a pee AND a POO&#8230;. AND I have an erection&#8230;. what the **** do I do? Which do I do first??</p>
<p><img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss302/Malodrax/fuuu1.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="504" height="315" /></p>
<p>So I bend over and try to push my erected penis down a bit to pee into the can&#8230; but as I relax my pelvic floor muscles to release the urine.. I feel my turd start to come out at the same time!</p>
<p><img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss302/Malodrax/fuuuu2.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="504" height="315" /></p>
<p>So then I&#8217;m like &#8220;fuk this&#8230; I&#8217;ll just try and hold the pee and let the poo come out&#8221;&#8230; so I sit on the can&#8230; grasp my penis hard to try and &#8220;block&#8221; it&#8230; and I then tried to let the crap come out&#8230;.that didn&#8217;t work so well&#8230;</p>
<p>As I relaxed my anal sphincters&#8230; my pelvic floor muscles relaxed as well and piss started flying all over the floor&#8230; I started panicking at this point&#8230; so I desperately held my crap again, while I attempted to shove/bend my erect penis into the toilet. Once it was in&#8230; I tried take the piss and crap at the same time, but my ass was too far out and this massive turd started flying out missing the bowl, landing partially on the back rim and partially on the floor.</p>
<p><img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss302/Malodrax/fuuuuuu.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="504" height="315" /></p>
<p><img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss302/Malodrax/fuuuu3.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="504" height="315" /></p>
<p>I then closed everything off again (you can&#8217;t imagine the pain of repeatedly blocking yourself from peeing and pooing when you have go so badly)&#8230; wtf was I supposed to do? I either pee on her floor or poo on her floor&#8230;.then out of sheer desperation and instinct an idea popped into my head:</p>
<p><img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss302/Malodrax/fuuuu4.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="504" height="315" /></p>
<p><img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss302/Malodrax/fuuu5.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="504" height="315" /></p>
<p>I ran into her bathtub and let myself go there&#8230; I figured that at least this way I could rinse it all down instead of getting sh!t on her floor&#8230;.</p>
<p><img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss302/Malodrax/fuuu6.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="504" height="315" /></p>
<p>At that point things get even worse&#8230;</p>
<p><img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss302/Malodrax/fuuu7.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="504" height="315" /></p>
<p>The turd wouldn&#8217;t ****ing dissolve&#8230; and the damn bish was asking me wtf I&#8217;m doing showering in her washroom&#8230;.</p>
<p>I then answer &#8220;yea lol&#8230; I&#8217;m showering&#8230; is that ok?&#8221;&#8230;</p>
<p>she says: what the hell? why?? you don&#8217;t think we&#8217;re having sex do you???</p>
<p>At this point I can&#8217;t even think straight and I jokingly (retardedly) say: yes we are lol</p>
<p>she then gets mad and says: wtf? is this some kind of joke&#8230; get out of there!!</p>
<p>I say: no please don&#8217;t come in&#8230; I&#8217;m not done yet&#8230;</p>
<p>At this point the hot water I was using to try and dissolve my sh!t was releasing sh!t smelling vapours all over the room.. and it was pretty rancid&#8230; the girl could smell it and she said: &#8220;why the hell does it smell so ****ing bad? What the hell are you doing in there???&#8221;</p>
<p>I say: please don&#8217;t come in&#8230; trust me.. you&#8217;ll regret it&#8230;</p>
<p>she says: **** this&#8230; get out now or I&#8217;m unlocking the door..</p>
<p>I beg her not too&#8230; but she loses her patience and then opens the door. She stops dead in her tracks. There before her was me standing with a pseudo-erect penis, left over fecal residue on my ass,large semi dissolved turds in her bathtub, turds on the floor beside her toilet, and pee all over the floor in front of the can&#8230; I was so ****ing embarassed&#8230; I started shivering&#8230; she looks at me while covering her mouth and nose and whispers&#8230; &#8220;wtf did you do???&#8221;&#8230;she was starting to cry&#8230; I hesitate for a bit and I try to explain myself &#8220;I tried my best &#8230; I&#8230; I&#8217;m sorry&#8221;&#8230; She then flips out and tells me to clean up the mess or she&#8217;s calling the cops. I agree to do it.</p>
<p>She leaves, and I grap some toilet paper&#8230; pick up the turds from the floor and bathtub, toss them in the can, and then I proceed to clean off the floor and bathtub with soap, water and alot of tissues. I tossed most of the tissues into her toilet bowl (the garbage was full eventually). I then took some perfume from the counter and tossed into the bathtub to get rid of odour. After I was done I cleaned my ass off and flushed the toilet. To my utmost dismay, my massive fecal matter bulk and the large amount of TP unded up clogging the toilet and it overflowed and started spilling crap all over the floor&#8230; I&#8217;m literally crying at that point&#8230; I look for the plunger but I couldn&#8217;t find it so I put my pants on and rushed out to ask her if she had a plunger so I could fix the toilet&#8230;I see her with her roommate and her roommates bf&#8230; she&#8217;s crying&#8230; as soon as she sees me she tells me to gtfo right now&#8230; I try to explain that the toilet is clogged&#8230; but she doesn&#8217;t let me &#8230; she says she feels threatened and she wants me out now&#8230; she graps a knife from the drawer and tells me to leave&#8230; I leave.</p>
<p>about a minute later I hear this loud scream coming from her dorm room (I assumed she went back to the washroom to see it covered in poo water). At that point I sprinted away as fast as possible, while swearing at myself and crying tears of frustration and embarrasment.</p>
<p><strong>All of this could have ****ing been prevented if I had just brought my goddamn pee bottles!!! WTF?!?! The FIRST girl that shows interest in me.. I have to go and **** in her bathtub???? This is ****ing retarded (yes mad). </strong></p>
<p>to all you people saying &#8220;peeing in bottles is stupid/gross&#8221;&#8230; well **** that&#8230; not only is it more convenient and cleaner, but it also prevents epic disaters like this one&#8230;.</p>
<p>This is what WOULD have happened if I had my trustee pee bottle&#8230; I would have on sat on the can and then simultaneosly peed into the bottle and pooed into the toilet. No disaster&#8230; no mess&#8230;. and none of this would have happened.</p>
<p>anyway&#8230; should I let things cool off for a bit and call her back? maybe to apologize/explain myself? or should i just hope I never run into her again?</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So Jones and Mr. Pickles are at a party the other day when one of our friends mentions this site.  Another friends says, &#8220;I don&#8217;t see what&#8217;s so funny about it&#8221;.  We&#8217;ll call this friend, &#8220;Goldfinger&#8221; unless Jones can come up with a better name for him.  At first, I thought, fuck you dude!  But then I remembered the source&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.jonesandpickles.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/goldfinger.jpg"><img src="http://www.jonesandpickles.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/goldfinger-400x256.jpg" alt="" title="goldfinger" width="400" height="256" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1658" /></a></p>
<p>Note that our good friend is not only bare-assed naked, but he is attempting to order take out at 4am on what he thinks is a phone, but is merely a shoe sole insert.</p>
<p>Is that the kind of funny you were looking for?</p>
<p>Jonesy - set our boy up with a login account and let&#8217;s re-light this rocket&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seriously wtf is this trend going on?  And I don&#8217;t want to hear about car auctions, people are actually polishing these up and even ADDING antennas to them.</p>
<p>This is something that&#8217;s been bugging me lately, now I see this I&#8217;ve lost my mind in a fit of social rage.</p>
<a href="http://www.jonesandpickles.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_1327.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1649" title="img_1327" src="http://www.jonesandpickles.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/img_1327-400x279.jpg" alt="THIS IS NOT A FUCKING COP CAR" width="400" height="279" /></a>
<p>What the hell? I&#8217;ve seen this car a few times and with the quad antenna GPS tracker on top you&#8217;d be mighty spooked seeing this thing flying around until I discovered the truth.  It&#8217;s another black guy driving around in a tricked out wanna be police cruiser.  Now if you throw a fit because I&#8217;m mentioning black people, you can go fuck yourself too.  I have yet to see this become a trend in either the white or Hispanic communities, so until then, it&#8217;s a black thing. (Much like Ja Rule was, neither of which I understand)</p>
<p>Now that I know the truth, everytime I see this I fly past him and drive fucking crazy (MOVE BITCH, get out the way&#8230; now you should know I love Luda)</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s my problem, ISNT THIS FUCKING ILLEGAL?  cars getting out of his way and such, impersonating a cop is against the law and hughly serious the last time I checked.  I get auction cars and stuff that just are old cop cars but this is getting fucking stupid.  More to follow now that this is pissing me off.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So Mr. Pickles and his lady have been frequenting the local restaurants and bars in Sanford, FL for about a year now.  It seems (at least to us) that everytime we pass by what we now know to be &#8220;Jason&#8217;s Martini Bar&#8221; it has been closed.</p>
<p>I say, it seems, because for months this place had no signage of any kind so it was sort of one of those places that &#8220;you just have to get in to&#8221;.  Well, my friends, tonight was the night!</p>
<p>We happened to visit one of our favorite restaurants this evening (Willow Tree Cafe - which by the way was a total fail as well due to their lack of planning for the amount of business that they had tonight however I will give them a pass because Theo and the crew are usually very good at making us feel like VIP&#8217;s so a one-time bad experience is acceptable).  Afterwards, we walked the Downtown Sanford area.</p>
<p>Jason&#8217;s Martini Bar had a light on and a door man.  Score!  (or so we thought).   $5.00 cover for my male ass.  No problem - that place must be cool as shit inside&#8230;</p>
<p>Not so much&#8230;</p>
<p>Try South Beach&#8230;(without the South Beach)</p>
<p>PS - Blonde Bartender - you are not nearly hot enough to act that way&#8230;EVER!!!</p>
<p>PPS - You could not make a &#8220;dirty martini&#8221; to save your fucking life.  That shit sucked worse than&#8230;I have nothing&#8230;I LITERALLY HAVE NOTHING IN MY MIND THAT I COULD POSSIBLY THINK OF THAT SUCKED WORSE THAN THAT SHITTY DRINK YOU CHARGED ME TEN FUCKING DOLLARS FOR!!!!!!</p>
<p>Just saying - if you are calling your bar &#8220;BLAH BLAH MARTINI BLAH BLAH&#8221;  you may want to hire someone who knows how to make a fucking martini that is not on your list&#8230;</p>
<p>Peace and chicken grease asswipes&#8230;</p>

<div><strong>50 Mistakes Women Make When Having Sex</strong></div>
<div></div>
<div>1. Assuming he can get a raging hard on when it suits you. Contrary to  popular belief, men can&#8217;t just flip a switch and get it up because you decided  to stop being a frigid bitch. Getting it hard is your job.</p>
<p>2. Thinking  that kissing needs to be this sweet romantic thing all the time. Sometimes  pressing your lips against your partners mouth while you get off is the hot. It  depends on the situation.</p>
<p>3. Leaving him responsible for your orgasm. You  know what gets you off. Tell him. If you don&#8217;t, it&#8217;s your own fault when he&#8217;s  snoozing and you&#8217;re all wound up.</p>
<p>4. Expecting him to cuddle. Men and  women are wired differently. Sex makes most women want to talk and bond and all  that shit. Stop holding it over his head, it&#8217;s not his fault.</p>
<p>5.  Expecting him to fall asleep with you in his arms. That shit is uncomfortable  after awhile. A little snuggling isn&#8217;t unreasonable, but when it&#8217;s time to  actually sleep? An arm draped over you should suffice.</p>
<p>6. Expecting him  to always lay on the charm and romance. Sometimes, that&#8217;s nice. Sometimes. But  expecting him to be all roses and candles all the time is like expecting you to  act like a pornstar all the time. If you&#8217;re not willing to do that, don&#8217;t expect  him to switch for you.</p>
<p>7. Being selfish in bed. Regardless of the shit  that Cosmo forces down our throats, sex is NOT just about us. Get over  it.</p>
<p>8. Using Cosmo as a sex bible. I don&#8217;t know who comes up with half  that shit, but I&#8217;m pretty sure they need counseling.</p>
<p>9. Whining when he  pushes your head down on his cock instead of stroking your hair. Know why he&#8217;s  pushing, skippy? Because you aren&#8217;t doing it right, and have apparently ignored  the other clues he&#8217;s given you. Pay attention to the signals that he&#8217;s sending  you.</p>
<p>10. Not moving at all. Missionary is not an excuse to do  nothing.</p>
<p>11. Expecting him to undress himself with any amount of grace.  He&#8217;s about to get some pussy.</p>
<p>12. Not shaving your legs. If you want your  guy stubble free, you better get out the razor.</p>
<p>13. Allowing your crotch  to resemble the amazon. Yes, waxing hurts. Yes, some people don&#8217;t want to go  bare. Thats fine. If you like bush, great. If you have sensitive skin and can&#8217;t  shave, I feel for you. Trim that shit if you want him to spend any time down  there.</p>
<p>14. Assuming that sex means a relationship. The only relationship  you have is that he has now stuck his hoo hoo dilly in your cha cha. That&#8217;s as  far as it goes unless otherwise noted.</p>
<p>15. Withholding oral sex just  because you&#8217;re ragging. He didn&#8217;t do it. Unless you want him to withhold oral  sex because he&#8217;s hormonal, I suggest you get some kneepads.</p>
<p>16. Expecting  him to figure out what you like by what noise you make. Use your words. Have you  ever actually heard what you sound like while you&#8217;re having sex? If you heard  yourself on tape, and someone asked you to explain what was causing you to make  that noise, 67% of women would respond with answers like &#8220;I stubbed my toe&#8221; &#8220;I  ran up the steps&#8221; or &#8220;I was putting up drywall&#8221;.</p>
<p>17. Leaving condoms up  to him. If you&#8217;re sexually active and insist that he uses a condom, I suggest  buying a box and keeping it by your bed. Not all men keep them on them, and it&#8217;s  just as much your responsibility as it is his. If you think that makes you a  slut, you shouldn&#8217;t be having sex anyway. Go back to Jr High.</p>
<p>18. Getting  your undies in a bunch when he talks dirty. A little fantasy can be fun. If he  treats you with respect all the time, you shouldn&#8217;t be offended when he calls  you his dirty little slut. When he calls you a whore and tells you to come, it&#8217;s  his way of showing that he cares if you get off.</p>
<p>19. Refusing to be  spontaneous.</p>
<p>20. Dissing quickies because it&#8217;s not some slow sensual  ordeal. Sex is a dynamic thing. There&#8217;s an awesome raw energy when you only have  20 minutes but having to have someone so bad that you do it half clothed against  the wall. Readjust your thinking.</p>
<p>21. Being too much of a pussy to tell  him what is or isn&#8217;t acceptable before you start bumping uglies. Be honest. If  he asks if he can poke you in the butt, and you giggle and say no like it&#8217;s an  invitation, don&#8217;t look surprised when he &#8220;accidentally&#8221; sticks his cock in your  butt.</p>
<p>22. Expecting him to undress you. I put a bra on almost every day.  I know for a fact that getting them off isn&#8217;t always easy. Help a brother  out.</p>
<p>23. Undressing in the dark. If you&#8217;re shy, dim the lights, but give  the man something to see. No ripping off the clothes and diving under the  covers, either.</p>
<p>24. Refusing to get on top. There&#8217;s no reason men should  have to do all the work.</p>
<p>25. Getting that bored look on your face. Men  are more visual than women. Give him something to look at. Get on top and arch  your back a little bit. Move. Do something to indicate that you 1) are not dead  and 2) didn&#8217;t suffer a minor stroke rendering you unable to move.</p>
<p>26.  Expecting him to do all the touching when you&#8217;re riding him. It&#8217;s your body,  you&#8217;re used to it. Play with your tits, rub your clit, do something to make his  job easier.</p>
<p>27. Being too afraid to guide your partner&#8217;s hand when he&#8217;s  touching you. Don&#8217;t like the way he&#8217;s doing it? Gently take his hand and show  him how you like it.</p>
<p>28. Getting into bed, getting naked, fooling around  and then deciding that you just want to cuddle, then getting offended when he  doesn&#8217;t. Its your choice to stop, but don&#8217;t look all fucking surprised when he&#8217;s  confused. You got him naked in your bed, what else did you think was going to  happen?</p>
<p>29. Refusing to let him take control. So you&#8217;re a feminist. Big  fucking deal. Letting him call the shots doesn&#8217;t make you any less of  one.</p>
<p>30. Refusing to take control. It&#8217;s ok to crawl across a bed to him  on all fours, push him down and crawl on top. It&#8217;s not his responsibility to  start things all the time.</p>
<p>31. Forgetting that he has a body that likes  to be touched, too. Men have things like backs and shoulders and stomachs and  other parts that are fun to kiss and touch. You miss a lot of good places by  concentrating solely on his penis.</p>
<p>32. Ignoring his balls. Seriously,  they are there. Kiss them, lick them, suck on them, make a relationship with  them, just don&#8217;t ignore them.</p>
<p>33. Leaving him to his own devices. Nothing  is worse than a girl who gets you most of the way off and then bolts because she  doesn&#8217;t want to deal with the mess.</p>
<p>34. Launching into some speech about  not being an object for sex when he tries to titty fuck you. Jesus Christ, just  push them together and enjoy yourself. You get a great view.</p>
<p>35.  Expecting him to handle you like a porcelain doll. I&#8217;d hate to be the bearer of  bad news, but you&#8217;re not going to break, sister. So doing it against the wall  gives you a bruise on your shoulder. Look at it later and giggle at the  memory.</p>
<p>36. Refusing to try things in the name of &#8220;making love&#8221;. You&#8217;re  not making anything. You are naked. With another person. Making strange faces  and weird noises. Stop romanticizing it.</p>
<p>37. Taking things way too  seriously. Sex is funny. Actually it&#8217;s hilarious. Somewhere along the line,  someone is going to fall off of a bed, hit their head on a lighting fixture,  accidentally kick a midget or trip over a goat. It&#8217;s how you deal with it that  really matters.</p>
<p>38. Throwing a bitch fit when he asks for a 3-some. It&#8217;s  the American dream. (I know my ex is reading this right now, so a quick  interjection. One request for a 3 some is ok. Every 5 minutes, not so much. Know  the difference).</p>
<p>39. Continuing a blow job knowing that you have god  awful cotton mouth. Really. Grab a bottle of water.</p>
<p>40. Nails. Its one  thing tracing them up and down your partners back. It&#8217;s another when you snag  the goods with a claw.</p>
<p>41. Bitching when you get jizz on you. You&#8217;re  having sex. That will happen. That&#8217;s the entire point of sex. Establish where he  can and can&#8217;t jizz and be done with it. Remember, it tightens the  pores.</p>
<p>42. Not making any noises at all. Moan. Scream his name. Something  so he knows he&#8217;s the best you&#8217;ve had, even if he isn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>43. Faking  orgasms. Just. Don&#8217;t. By faking (IF he believes you) he thinks he&#8217;s doing  everything right. And if he doesn&#8217;t know its not working, he&#8217;s not going to  change it. Starting a vicious cycle of unfulfilling sex which will eventually be  very damaging to his ego.</p>
<p>44. Not washing before sex. I know that sex is  spontaneous, this is more of a general statement. If you haven&#8217;t showered that  day, and things smell a little&#8230;fishy&#8230;perhaps demanding oral sex is a little  ridiculous of you.</p>
<p>45. Anything that involves inserting anything into his  body that he has not specifically approved before hand. I don&#8217;t care what Cosmo  says, some things are simply not pleasant surprises.</p>
<p>46. Refusing to use  oils/whipped cream/other messy but fun things because you have 541510630 count  Egyptian cotton sheets that were made by hand by the only person alive capable  of sewing that pattern. They&#8217;ll wash.</p>
<p>47. Doing all of your before bed  things before sex. Yes, sleeping with makeup on is bad. Now is not the time to  remove it, you can do that later. And really fucking you with your hair in a  ratty scrunchie with acne cream on your nose is not all its cracked up to  be.</p>
<p>48. Cleaning up after sex. Wiping the splooge off is one thing. But  changing the sheets immediately so you can get the other ones in the washer and  then sanitizing everything your naked body might have possibly passed by is not  the way to do it.</p>
<p>49. Making a big deal out of it if he loses his hard  on. This is not an interrogation, or 20 questions. It happens, he&#8217;s probably  mortified and you are NOT helping.</p>
<p>50. Asking questions right afterwards.  The woman equivalent of &#8220;was it good for you?&#8221;. Now is not a good time to ask  &#8220;What this means&#8221;. Right now, it means he probably needs to take a drink, a leak  and a nap, perhaps not in that order.</p></div>
