it never went away

just goes to show that one will not get it that often....

again, it's not porn. 56.82% of the ads played on tv show more skin and have more sex-related wording than that.

That's actually the first time I've had a chance to take a good look at the ad (, my popup-killer clears it before I can take look at it).
But "Horny Goat Weed"...that's disgusting, dude...

Horny goat weed, really!

The fun part is that such a product actually exists.

I'm launching a new product "Horny rat droppings" - guaranteed effect on your love life or you get 2 free dried otter's nipples and a small jar of albatross saliva.

Where did you get that statistic? I mean how do you get more sex related than the word sexual? Wait, please do not answer that.

We found something like that in my father's medicine cabinet.

When asked about it he got all huffy and said, "Well? You don't want me to end up like Charlie Filletti do you?"
