Oh, and also pillow fights…in Jello.

Here’s where we lecture you about practicing safe sex if you are not in a monogamous relationship, and even if you are in one, there are plenty of reasons for you and your partner to continue to be careful. The girls at Jezebel recently pointed out:
“Doctors in China have been seeing a huge resurgence of cases of syphilis, reports CBS. An article published today in the New England Journal of Medicine documents the sharp increase in syphilis cases, which has been especially notable in newborns. Some doctors believe that the rise is mainly due to closeted gay or bisexual men, many of whom are married and have children.”
The CBS article blames the epidemic on an increase in the number of men with new money from the nation’s booming economy. The article goes on to say:
“Prostitutes along with gay and bisexual men, many of whom are married with families, are driving the epidemic, according to a commentary published Thursday in the New England Journal of Medicine.
The increase reflects the country’s staggering economic growth, providing both businessmen and migrant laborers more cash and opportunity to pay for unsafe sex while away from home.”

The lesson here? Wrap it people!
If you’ve been dating online with any success you’ve probably had someone suggest meeting for a cup of coffee. It seems to be less of a commitment than a full on dinner date and a “safe” way to get a feel for whether or not you initially click with someone. This is a mistake. The coffee date is “safe” and it is also boring. No one ever got lucky after a coffee date. Meeting a random person at a Starbucks in the middle of the day is not sexy.
There is no ambiance, no mystery and no chance that you both might have one too many lattes and do something that you may or may not regret the next day. You’ll just be jittery and have spent $5 on a crappy scone. The cocktail date is often the way to go. You can meet at a nice place that’s public, so you’ll feel comfortable, and you can have a nice drink that will help you both relax after a long week. You’re not committed to anything, but if you find that you hit it off you can always extend the date and have some dinner. It’s open ended and gives you a chance to see eachother in soft lighting, thus giving you each the impression that the other person is about 20% hotter than they actually are. Hey, you might as well start high and have the inevitable let down come after you’ ve at least had a few martinis and hopefully a quick game of tonsil hockey.
Most of my readers (hi all 3 of you!) have probably realized that online dating can be a good thing. This is even more true in a city with a high population of transvestites. And no, those are not people from Dracula’s homeland. Watch more Springer. Anyhoo, if you go out into to the night and end up someplace like LKF you’re sure to spot an asian hottie in a short skirt, with high heels and a huge rack. That’s a dude. Well, not always, but yours truly has scoped and been scoped by what seemed to be serious talent. Luckily, we had more savvy friends to point out certain things. Like an adam’s apple.
So unless you want to end up with this after 10 Singapore Slings, find a nice girl online. Or maybe that’s how you roll.
Well, this seems like a totally reasonable way to find love.
Women in Hong Kong generally one have one main complaint about men in Hong Kong…douchebaggery. It is number one by a mile, followed almost universally by some variation of “wussified”. Now, there are number of things that lead women to feel this way, but one of the most obvious is this:
No, I didn't get my ass kicked a lot in high school. Why do you ask?
How about lunch at Dressed Salads?
Now, besides tha fact that these guys are posing like Take That rejects, the last time even a non-douchebag could wear a popped collar and not get laughed out of the room in the U.S., I had a flat top and House Party 2 was just a glimmer in Kid’s eye. Except in the Mid-Atlantic States. This is totally acceptable for people that play Lacrosse or soccer at UVA, Duke, and other DBag-heavy schools.
How this phenomenon has continued to exist is beyond me, but this a city where a LOT of Murses are sold, so, yeah. But who can we blame historically for this idiocy? Let’s check in with Man Vs. Clown:
“It looks like we have tennis player René LaCoste, the guy behind all those shirts with the little crocodiles, to blame. The Wikipedia article on the subject — and once again, I’m astonished that there’s a Wikipedia article on the subject — says this:
‘With the advent of the tennis shirt, however, the upturned collar took on a whole new purpose. In 1929, René Lacoste, the French 7-time Grand Slam champion, decided that the stiff dress shirts and ties usually worn by tennis players were too cumbersome and uncomfortable for the tennis court. Instead, he designed a loosely-knit pique cotton shirt with an un-starched, flat protruding collar and a longer shirt-tail in back than in front. This came to be known as the tennis shirt. Lacoste’s design called for a thick pique collar that one would wear turned up in order to block the Sun from one’s neck. Thus, the tennis shirt’s upturned collar was originally designed by the inventor of the tennis shirt, himself, for ease and comfort on the tennis court, aiding the player by helping to prevent sunburn and hyperthermia.
Gradually, as tennis shirts became more popular and were produced more widely, their use transcended tennis and was adopted for golf, polo, other sports, and everyday life. As the tennis shirt entered the popular culture, wearers were less apt to turn up their collar to block the Sun if not wearing the shirt during sport or outdoor activity. Thus, most people began to wear a tennis shirt without the collar turned up, or turning them up only when involved in sport.’”
Damn you! On the other hand, retards in popped collars make the rest of us look relatively good, so keep it up guys! There is only one guy who can rock a popped collar and that’s because he makes breakfast delicisouly chocolatey:
Count Chocula
Oh, and if you’d like to buy one of those fine shirts above, or just laugh at models, go check out the Super Dry shop HERE.
Well, this is going to make a lot of people either feel really good or really sad. A disturbing article:
“There’s always that one couple at the dinner party that can’t keep their hands off of each other, pawing, smooching, calling each other “sweetie” and “baby,” while the other wives and husbands try to keep from ogling and turn their attention to the latest neighborhood gossip.
We roll our eyes and snicker, but, really, we envy the love birds. Admit it, you do, too. And, come on, wouldn’t you just love to know how much sex your married friends are really having?
Well, now we have some insight, thanks to an iVillage survey of 2,000 American housewives between the ages of 18 and 49. So, try throwing out these stats at your next adult gathering: 23 percent of women reported having sex one to three times a month, while a close 21 percent say they have sex more than 10 times monthly.
Don’t fret if your numbers lag a bit, just be happy you’re not one of the 9 (YIKES!) percent who reported not having sex at all in the past year. Frequency, however, doesn’t seem to be the only determining factor when it comes to satisfaction, since 77 percent of women surveyed reported they were happy with their sex lives, and 48 percent rate their husband as the best sex partner of their life. All great news.
But here’s the bad news: 63 percent of women would rather be sleeping, watching a movie or reading than having sex. Maybe it’s a matter of that same old, same old: An overwhelming 81 percent of married women rate their sex life as predictable.” Full Article…
Well, guys, no pressure…
"He's almost as disappointing as Lost"
There’s a lot of places to find advice about dating. And guess what, a lot of it (especially if the advice giver was ever on Oprah) is just plain awful. A few sites dole out gems like the following things that girls like men to do when approaching them online or during a date. I have added my own assessments:
1. Talks about things she likes or dislikes, making comments and showing interest. Making comments. Brash!
2. Displays concern for her, her feelings and well-being. Or, be a douche. Whichever.
3. Shares jokes or amusing anecdotes with her. Yeah, be like her grandfather. That’s money.
4. Sends her special/cute email messages. Are you a twelve year old girl? Then fine.
5. Makes an effort to contact her in some form most every day. Thinking about her counts.
6. Sends instant messages when she and you are online at the same time. I know I love getting IM’d every time I am online!
7. Discusses seriously the traits she desires in a partner. “Hi, please judge me.”
8. Shows her your daring or mischievous side. Do it now, because this will be of far less interest to her once she has you hooked.
10. Emails her greeting cards, gifts, pictures songs or fun attachment. See comment 4.
But this stuff is just banal. For truly terrible dating advice you have to go to this lady.
Hey there sailor!
Oh yeah, that’s where I want to get my dating advice. Why don’t you see for yourself?
