    Was Zappa against pegging? it’s definitely in a number of his lyrics

    “I can take about an hour
    on the tower of power
    as long as I gets
    a little golden shower”

    Even a glance at US history would show you that 3rd parties do not exist because when they do, one party collapses into a new 2 party system. Whigs, federalists, antifederalists are all parties that no longer exist. We had a 3 party system multiple times, but the issue is inherently that the system encourages 2 parties and no more.

    Pegging isn’t a replacement for a prostate exam any more than getting punched in the tit is a mammogram, despite the similar sensation. Get your butt (and your boobs) checked.

      Prostate exams actually aren’t recommended for most people anymore. It turns out they weren’t great at catching prostate cancer anyways. Now they only recomend them if you actually have a family history of prostate cancer or other risk factors.

      But also I don’t think this is refering to pegging being a prostate exam. I’m fairly certain it’s refering to the fact that some studies have shown that regular prostate stimulation slightly reduces the risk of prostate cancer.

    If you’re a dude and you’ve never tried a prostate massage, you don’t know what you’re missing. Feels a little weird at first but then it feels really good.

    This implies that the Democrats would save America and that America (the state not the workers) both needs and deserves saving

      Yes, but he was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 1990. People generally wouldn’t pursue the office if they knew they would die in only a couple of years.

          I’m not about to find them but there were a couple studies a while back that said regular prostate stimulation reduces the risk of prostate cancer.

          Of course those could always be like the studies that come out every year about how eggs/chocolate/coffee are good/bad for you.
