Does anyone still get a rise out of sex?

Having lost interest in it altogether, people in general (not just women) have lost all power over me. I never realized what a huge role sex plays in day-to-day activity until just now. I was observing the model posers at Union Square Café and just having a smug thought to myself: "What could you possibly be doing that is as important as the impression you're trying to give here? Let's say you're on your way to make tons of money, then what? Get wasted? Dance? Have sex? I mean, that's pretty much it, isn't it? Big woop." And then I went back to washing windshields.

Time for Mr. Grumpy to read The Joy of Sex.

― Aimless (Aimless), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:17 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah, that book's hot.

I'm not grumpy, even. If you've ever passed by Union Square Cafe, you'll notice guys and girls just hang out there trying to get signed or something, doing their damnedest to look like they've got it going on... and it all boils down to... what? There's only so much you can do in this life.

Might I suggest the title 101 Nights of Grreat Sex by Laura Corn? The writing is kind of silly, but it is cleverly packaged and kind of fun. Also, I like the 3 letter "r"s in "Grrreat." (It's Tony the Tiger Great!)

So, you want me to re-lose control of my passions so that people will have power over me again? That doesn't seem very helpful!

loss of passion =/= control of passion

And if you are not grumpy then you are something else that is pretty much indistinguishable from grumpy.

I don't find orgasms very thrilling, nor the process which leads up to it is all. And I'm not mad at anybody. I just noticed today that people act retarded and it's all about sexual frustration. That's all.

I don't think they're supposed to be thrilling, unless you're cumming during the first drop of Superman: The Ride.

I live a few blocks from Union Sq. Cafe. I have to say, the irritating hipster crowd outside Coffee Shop on the far corner of 16th far outstrips the Cafe. In fact I don't think I've ever seen anyone outside Union Square Cafe.

Maybe you meant Coffee Shop, in which case you are correct, irritating hipsters mill about the entrance 24 hours a day in much the manner you describe, just BEGGING to be punched in the face.

Also, sex is awesome.

― Ash (ashbyman), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 20:52 (eighteen years ago)

OK, I think she either fucked Brandon Davis - take out the barf bag cause that's Mr Firecrotch for you - or Travis Baker, who recently divorced and is (or was?) the Blink 182 drummer. Either way the dry spell only lasted 21 days. I mean, I can understand Travis, but Brandon Davis? Eh, talk about desperation. Maybe she had some great drugs (obv from mr cokehead himself)? A sex tape will only appeal to the extremely desperate.

To answer the thread question: sex makes you want more sex. So fuck and you'll soon want to have more of it. Vice versa, abstinence makes the heart (or penis? clitoris?) grow colder. Or something. That's what the say...

It's amazing how many of my school contemporaries, now in their early 40s, confide they're in sexless marriages/relationships. Of course, they may well be having sex outside those relationships.
