    so you're predicting an increase in the popularity of glory holes?

    I don't think glory holes can get much more popular, at least not in my household.

    Ha, there should be one of those remodel reality shows where they just add glory holes to houses.
    Host: "You will really get good usage from this glory hole in this spot."
    Homeowner (overwhelmed with joy): "OMG [actually saying it like that] are you seriousssss?!"

    :D O

    Matthew, I think you're onto something there.

    (It'd be the *only* house renovation show that hasn't yet been made.)

    You could call the show "Houses of the Hole-y"

    If you pitch the idea, I'm in!

    How would glory holes work if the receiver was female?

    Just *another* example of how women miss out, eh? It's a conspiracy, I tell ya.

    Sigh.

    How can we have a gender-equal society if there are no female glory holes? We should start a Twatter campaign.

    Now where is my login details for Mumsnet, I seem to have mislaid them.

    Warhol actually said, "The the future, everyone will be WORLD-famous for 15 minutes." Americans don't believe in the (rest of) the world, so, that part got dropped. Unintentionally, or not. IMHO.

    "Whatever! That's too long. Cut the syllable that prevents it from being good copy!"

    Or: "My meme-sense is overloaded! I got to chop it down to sub-haiku levels of attentions span. Ahhh ... *that's* better!"

    Or: "Those lefty-,commie-types *would* want to hear about the rest of the World! Better chop it out, just to be safe ... otherwise, we could have a goddamned *insurrection* on our hands!"

    Whatever.
