Anyone just see Penn and Teller's Bullsh*t on Showtime?
It was just interesting. The whole topic/concept of the show was "love". They had on an anthropologist (who was pretty insightful; I love anthropology) and a couple of buffoons like the Mars-Venus fake PhD dude and The (game-playing) Rules lady.
It sort of boiled down to long-term monogamy overall is hard and do your best when you're looking for someone no matter how you meet (they discussed varieties of options and the pros-cons, etc.). Plus, these people who market themselves as experts are often rather clueless.
Basically, you can't win if you don't play, so get out there. Kind of scares the bejeezus out of me to think about it, but then again, I'm Princess Precarious from the Land of Ambiguous, so that has a little something to do with it. :scared:
Just interesting anyway. :shrug:

1. Yup
For a change they didn't try to work in a slam against the liberals...

Is there room in the land of the ambiguous for new citizens?

3. I hardly ever watch them (or anything much)
So it was new to me. A little interesting anyway 'trying' to figure out all that human behavior/emotional stuff (not that I can actually do it).

The Land of the Ambiguous seems to be a region growing by leaps and bounds daily. There's always room for more though. :pals:
