About 8 years ago, my wife and I were amused when we bought a package of
imported ramen (oriental noodles) with the prominent banner "Gusty flavor!"
So they were right!?

| "Couth" is comparatively ancient, and I believe it is Scottish
in origin. It is not a recent beheading. On the other hand I like
the idea of an aster as an accident that did not turn out badly.

| Re: .9
I believe that most people are built a**-backwards. They would
be rather weird if it was on the front.
Correct me if I am wrong, but the original expression for something
blundered was that it was done "bas-ackwards". For some reason,
this has been re-corrupted back to a**-backwards which is a perfectly
normal condition. That's like putting the horse before the cart
(where it belonged in the first place)!

| Back-asswards, ass-backwards, bas-akwards - it's all the same
anal-cerebral inversion. [And probably illegal by Supreme Court
rulings.]
And I hate ***s for perfectly good English words!

| RE: .12 (optical rectalysis)
Wouldn't optical rectalysis more appropriately refer to a self-induced
inflammatory condition produced BY INWARD VISUAL examination of
our only traditionally rearward facing orifice?
Or have I erred in assuming it's self induced? Perhaps it's the
result of continual visual examination of ones internals by external
parties.
In any event, the eyes have it. It's not an outlook, it's an inlook.
And the inflamation is probably due to its continual or persistent
nature rather than an effluents it may produce for or on the observers.

o We should write things like ass-b**kwards. Note strategic
placing of the obliterates.
o Apparantly "cranal-anal inversion" scans better.
o Moses discovered perfect elasticity in the bible,
when he tied his ass to a post and walked ten miles
into town.
o One of the medical operations involves severing the
nerve running from the eyes to the assh*le. This
cures shitty outlooks on life. (anyone remember the
technical name of the operation?)

| re: 152.15
The technical name of the operation is an OPTHARECTOMY.
From a note by Dr. I. C. Clearly:
"The purpose of this delicate operation is to sever the cord that
connects your eyes to your rectum, and hopefully get rid of your
shitty outlook on life."

| re: .15, .14 ...
I suspect the problem most persons proscribe optharectomies for
is more a case of
Self-Induced Total Methane Anoxia.
This term is a much more intelligent diagnosis of the problem, as
reflected in the epithet
SIT-MAN
which, while typically used by persons with little formal schooling,
and while often mispronounced, really says it all...
