BOURBON

I have, over the last two weeks, been sitting for an artist who is doing my portrait. This is a favour - I don't even like having my photo taken. I have to say that it has been a very sobering experience. So strange to see her making tiny lines, shaping and shading an impression of my face, concentrating on every imperfection.

The eyes were the strangest. She stared deeply into mine and carefully drew what she saw looking out... I find the likeness disconcerting, very eerie...and I can understand why some primitive cultures believed that if you possessed someone's likeness you possessed part of their soul.

Now to hide it in the attic and live a life of debauchery.

The Hack

...having images of Kate Winslet in Titanic run through my head.

Malone

Nice. Hurry up and get on that.

That sounds really cool, though. I hate getting my picture taken too, but that sounds fun. Maybe the eyes will follow people around the room and freak them out. Or maybe some rich old people will want to buy it for a ton of money like "The Kramer."

Sorry 'bout that!
I hope you haven't got Celine squawking as well.

BOURBON

I've started chewing gum...and and and I just farted without saying pardon....somebody stop me!!

The Hack

Bourbon, if you caused Celine to squak in my head, I'd already be dead from the self-inflicted wounds. I like her music that much.

Foxee

Neglecting to say pardon doesn't count if nobody else is there.

BOURBON

Loud and proud...

JosephB

I've never heard my wife fart. I've suspected an SBD from time-to-time, but she blames it on the dog.

The Hack

I'm not sure I could trust someone who isn't willing to just uncork one from time to time.

My daughter has been known to unleash some serious furry on occasion.

BOURBON

To me its the magic moment in a new relationship...when you can fart unabashed.
I'm not one to poo in company, but I have a friend who thinks it's the measure of true harmony. Personally, I don't want to see that look on my SO's face as he slides one out...what if it's the same as his sex face? So much damage could be done!

JoannaMac

How can this be? The effort it takes to hide tooting from my husband would be too much for me, so I don't bother, especially since he doesn't In fact, there is absolutely no air of mystery left between us at all. No pun intended.
