and we had to go to this sex and sexual language/slang workshop. The first thing the (70+) woman mentions is Kelis' Milkshake.

ConferNence?! I should probably mention there's an open bar.
The dancing portion of the evening was something to see, let me tell you. Nothing like an uninhibited reproductive rights geek on the flo.

Anything doing in DC over the next couple days?

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Monday, 18 October 2004 02:18 (twenty-one years ago)

That sounds really fun. And thank you for supporting our right on and off the dance flo.

― aimurchie, Monday, 18 October 2004 03:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, thanks for sure. Even us old married types might just have a condom slip sometime.

What kind of free stuff are they giving away?

― JaXoN (JasonD), Monday, 18 October 2004 04:14 (twenty-one years ago)

"products of conception"

Please tell me the 70+ woman actually used the phrase "my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard".

Can you ask this woman what "Fremme Neppa Vennette" means?

Nothing like an uninhibited reproductive rights geek on the flo.

Ew, geek menses.

Roxy, this thread reminded me of this blog post.

She did! And she wrote in on the flipboard she was standing next to, along with BLOWJOB and lots of other things that made immature little me roffle around. DAMN not having a digital camera.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 12:40 (twenty-one years ago)

That blog entry is great, jaymc.

A woman in a batik yellow outfit who had been waltzing, floating, shoeless on the parquet the whole time came over and said to me "I think, when I live my life over again, I want to be a chorus girl.

This part kind of reminded me of this one, older NCAP lady who, when asked what she would be if not an abortion provider, said "A feminist madam." ! She was the craziest dancer there, too.

So, did you get any interesting loot?

― Kevin Gilchrist (Mr Fusion), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 13:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Mostly just collecting business cards. Oh! I got a big shirt with a VADGE on the front (the girl who made it: "the vadge is just the hole, that's a VULVA on the shirt!") with lines pointing to all the parts, but with no names after the lines. The back says "you should know."

I also got a shirt with Bush's head on Megatron that says DECEPTICON.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 14:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, and you can get the vadge shirt at http://www.choiceclothing.com , just a shout-out to my homie.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 14:23 (twenty-one years ago)

six months pass...

I'm headed back to this thing tomorrow. Will have like 2 free hours on Saturday and two more on Sunday. What's doing in DC!?

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Friday, 13 May 2005 19:21 (twenty years ago)

They must have some kick-ass security up in that thing.

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 13 May 2005 19:28 (twenty years ago)

what song will they be discussing this year I wonder??

― teeny (teeny), Friday, 13 May 2005 19:31 (twenty years ago)

"American Baby" / "Since U Been Gone"

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 13 May 2005 19:33 (twenty years ago)

Omigod someone please moderate that out.

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 13 May 2005 19:34 (twenty years ago)

haha, leave it plz

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Friday, 13 May 2005 20:07 (twenty years ago)

I don't know, teeny. I hope there's a similar program this year.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Friday, 13 May 2005 20:08 (twenty years ago)

nabisco, you're a sick genius.

― slightly more subdued (kenan), Friday, 13 May 2005 20:09 (twenty years ago)

Snarf.

Roxy, what do you do that you're at this conference? (E-mail me offlist maybe? I am at work gearing up to send out a newsletter to people who work for abortion rights...)

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 13 May 2005 20:14 (twenty years ago)

The way you revived this I thought for a nanosecond that you were implying that the same conference was still going.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 13 May 2005 20:19 (twenty years ago)

haw!

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Friday, 13 May 2005 21:31 (twenty years ago)

You got mail, Chris.

This guy's going to be at the Hirshhorn, along with much more 20th-century fun.

The new Andy Goldsworthy installation is finished at the National Gallery.

There's the usual nightlife.

And Saturday an odd array of musicians and artists are taking over an old jazz club made of petrified wood.
Bohemian Caverns on Saturday

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Friday, 13 May 2005 22:53 (twenty years ago)

so what'd she say milkshake means?
a vadge isn't a hole. that's a surprisingly guyish comment.
it's kind of a tunnel. a tunnel of love if you will.

― lolita corpus (lolitacorpus), Saturday, 14 May 2005 00:44 (twenty years ago)

from the pic, i wouldn't have described it as anything but a hole. it's not like it was a bisected horizontal view or something.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Saturday, 14 May 2005 02:07 (twenty years ago)

They must have some kick-ass security up in that thing.

hell yeah. a diaphram, cervical cap and a condom.
