And 4 Billion years later they're still a joke.

Interesting.

And to think all this time I had just accepted Ensign Chekov's assurances animation had been invented in Russia.

Good thing it wasn't a picture of Muhammad. The Muslims would rage on about hanging the pottery maker... nevermind he's already dead.

all that potential, and they still haven't conquered toilet paper and the concept that beasts of burden are not fornication devices.

I posted this thread in the lounge hoping it won't be turned into political poop slinging. But there always has to be one of you out there. BTW, before you make an ass of yourself by insulting a whole nation because you don't like their current leaders check here:

Now I hope this remains a non-political thread.

History doesn't work like that.

It's funny. A lot of old fashioned Iranians consider not using water to clean your asshole unsanitary. But if it makes you feel better, the western toilet and the toilet paper has been a part of every Iraninian household since the first half of the 20th century. You don't need to have your toilet fettish suffer by staying up every night thinking about this.

As for the other subject of your obsession I'm not claiming there's no such incidents in rural Iran, but the first time I ever heard about the practice of using sheep as sex partners was from good old red-blooded American farm boys. You just choose to close your eye to one side of the story either out of convenience or ignorance. That's how your social or political comments are treated on this bb as mere jokes.

How many gays were executed in Iran this year?

Eleazar · 03-12-2008, 10:09 AM

They don't have any of those, IA. Their democratically elected despot told us so, remember?

xbarretx · 03-12-2008, 10:10 AM

so they created johnny chimpo?

Which travel agent do I have to bribe to find me an opening for a trip...all reservations are booked to Utopia for decades ahead!

Hannah Montana tickets are easier to get the night of the show than a resevation at the hotel infadel in Iran.

How in the Hell did I turn this political ? And BTW I really like their current leader. I think if he were to run for president of the U.S. he would have a really good shot at beating out Hussein Obama. Armajedeancrackehead has a great vision of the future. He's a leader you can trust and well, you can just tell he's honest.
