Cock
Okay, the backstory to this - At a BBQ Mondy was talking about guys at his work leaving or sending messages of the word cock to each other. He told a couple of funny stories and then, a short while later, got an SMS of the word cock, sent by one of our number at the barbie. Over the course of the day, the word cock was sent back and forth many times.
A few months later, Mitch and I were in Perth, and Mitch started getting the people who knew Mondy to SMS him cock. A lot of people got involved, some knew Mondy only by reputation. Mondy had many anonymous cocks that night, but Mitch and I were looking out for him. I remember there was one tool there who started pushing for Mondy's number, and we refused to give it to him, because he was a fuckwit. Given that we were joyously sending the word cock across Australia, you can imagine what a nob this guy must have been.
Over several cons, either it changed, or responses to it changed. There was a time when sending the word cock got you a spadger in return. Or moose or mongoose.
Some time later I saw the episode of The Office that had inspired Mondy's work-mates. I won't tell you anything, except to say that the writer found a way to make it funny without being tiring. In fact it actually gets funnier.
On a personal note, I use cock a lot. For me, it's something I send to folks to let them know I'm thinking of them. I'm often too busy/slack to ring or write emails, but it only takes a few seconds to send cock. And I know that a portion of the folks on the other end will get my cock and smile, and that's what I like about it. I have also developed the tradition of, when I first get someone's mobile phone number, sending them cock.
At conventions, the cocks fly thick and fast, actively mutating as they go. Back in 2003, I ran the first Continuum convention, which quickly become Cocktinuum, and which by the end was Cuntinuum. This year I went interstate to Conflux. For the week before the con, I sent select people a different word for cock every day, including ones like willy, Old Blind Bob, wang, cunt-stabber, and ruby-red reproductive rod. The first day of the con saw people receiving Cockflux!
And at Continuum 4, c0ck - Adventures in Masculinity was launched. It's funny how these things snowball.
I also have a weekly tradition of sending![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
deborahb a different word for cock every Tuesday. Since she's stopped working, she actually finds it a useful reminder as to the day of the week. For the record, today's was short arm. I think I've missed two Tuesdays since we started. I suspect I have enough words for cock in my lexicon (or should the be lexicock?) that I could keep it up for at least four years.
I do admit, sometimes I feel a little weird cocking women, especially the younger ones. More than once when I've been about to cock people likeceluran or hespa I've paused, unsure, then sent it. They know me, they know where my cock is coming from, but I still often have that pause. Whereas I know that meljane and mynxii love the cock, so I just go for it!
It gets even stranger when you're sending cock to someone you actually desire. There are all sorts of conflicting emotions there. But I know I'm sending them cock for the same reason that every else is getting my cock, as a sign I'm thinking of them.
Ok, wow, that last line just drove things up to a whole new level of wrongness!
Yesterday, I sent "Cock!" to a bunch of my friends - it was a cock frenzy! Below are the replies , including punctuation, that I received -
Hat!
Ram!
Bull!
Screw you too. Cripple old man.
A live hoe
Librarian cock!
Cock :)
And a great perthian penis to you, too!
Oh it's been a long time! well apart from the little black one I bought at C4.

So now you know the full story.
Cock!
Flying in Planes
Flying is fucking dull. It's a tedious, annoying way to travel. Why? Because you don't get to experience the joys and adventure of actually getting there. I enjoy the journey, in fact, I find the journey an important part of the process.
Planes are like getting into an elevator for a few hours. When you get out, you're there. Well, where's the fun in that? Where's the chance to see all the cool stuff on the way? To have unexpected detours and adventures?
To discover?
Given a choice, I will always drive rather than fly. People think I'm mad for doing the Nullarbor trip, but every crossing I see or experience something I haven't seen or experienced before! And that's what it's about. Living life.
Life's too short to waste it in airports and jets.

If I was really rich, I would have my own jet and I would fly places and stop along the way, like they used to in the glamourous days of flying. It would take weeks to get anywhere and it would be wonderful.
Or I would take a container ship. Saw a travel prog once where a couple went from Fremantle to England via Asia and Europe. It took 3 months, they had to make their own entertainment (I'd take my portable dvd player and lots of disks and books) - the food and the booze were very cheap. If I was rich, I could take friends along with me and we'd have a great time.

There is also something special about a window seat when the sun rises or sets.
I also like landings. But I also like rollercoasters for the same reason.

When I flew from Paris to New York (oh, doesn't that sound sophistimacated??), the woman across the aisle crossed herself as we took off and I thought to myself, "Well, that's alright then.".

A voice comes over the speaker and says "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. I'm so sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
I *think* he was joking.

These are reported to be actual announcements made by in-flight attendants:
Before takeoff: "To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the buckle, and pull tight. Actually, it works just like every other seat belt on the planet. If you don't know how to operate one, you probably shouldn't be out in public unsupervised."
and: "In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, oxygen masks will descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have a small child traveling with you, or someone who is acting like a small child, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with two such persons, decide now which one you love more." (I love this one!)
Shortly before arrival: "Weather at our destination is 50 degrees, with some broken clouds; but they'll try to have them fixed before we arrive. Thank you, and remember, nobody loves you, or your travel money, more than this airline."
On the ground, after an exceedingly bumpy landing: "Ladies and Gentlemen, please remain in your seats until Captain Crash' and the Crew have brought the aircraft to a screeching halt up against the gate. And, once the tire smoke has cleared and the warning bells are silenced, we'll open the door and you can pick your way through the wreckage to the terminal."
On arrival: "We'd like to thank you folks for flying with us today. And, the next time you get the insane urge to go blasting through the skies in a pressurized metal tube, we hope you'll think of us here at this airline."

Give me a train any day! More room, and what's more, if it breaks down, I can always get out and walk. Can't do that in a plane. :-) Not for very long, anyway.

From Wiki:
The baculum (also penis bone, penile bone or os penis) is a bone found in the penis of most mammals including canidae and felidae. It is absent in humans, equidae, marsupials, lagomorphs, and hyaenas, amongst others. It is used for copulation and varies in size and shape by species. Its characteristics are sometimes used to differentiate between similar species. The word baculum originally meant "stick" or "staff" in Latin. The homologue to the baculum in female mammals is known as the baubellum or os clitoris.
In humans, which lack the baculum and baubellum, the rigidity of the erection is provided entirely through blood pressure in the corpus cavernosum.
Examples of animals with a penile bone include rats, dogs and walruses.

The last message I sent back to was something Ken thought of from a poem .
I usually can't think up anything witty to say .
Vagina :P~
I'd like plane travel if the take off wasn't like a rollercoaster taking off , rollercoasters scare me .
I did enjoy the road trip to Melbourne , I just wished we had a working cd player at the time or a tape deck cos there were periods of time with no reception and I can't stand too much quiet .
We did get to see alot of things that we wouldn't have seen had we gone by plane and we look forward to going on shorter road trips in the future around Australia and near future around parts of Western Australia.
