I hope that I find an opportunity to use the Opera Singer emoticon someday.

I hate to argue with Wombat regarding the subject, but the fact that it doesn't mention Satan-neutral^TM makes me a little sad

[wombat]

I considered that but I wasn't sure if the superscript would work in a subject line.  And I hate when that thing happens where you mess around with the post for so long that someone else starts another thread.

I would just like to weigh in, agreeing that most of the people who claim to have photographic memories are either lying or do not know what the hell they mean by a photographic memory. I honestly think that some people believe that it means they think in pictures as, I am told, most people actually do. Which has nothing to do with memory.

I'm told I'm weird because I think in typed words and spoken words and not in images, parenthetically. It seems most people do not think this way! It aids in being able to describe completely awful things without picturing them and grossing out others for fun and profit.

Hmm.  Still a Phillippe Friday, but considerably less Meh this week.

This is maybe the best Philippe Times in a while. I love Philippe's pig costume, and Satan-Neutral^TM is a fantastic phrase, one I should start applying to more things.

Doubtless Lyle is one step closer to Miami's respect in this little visit to Hell's Ditch. Genet's feeling Ramon's dick, the guy in the bunk above gets sick, the lunatic in the cell next door starts screaming for his mother.

Why does Phillipe's pig costume have hair? If anything it looks like he's trying to pull off Emeril as his own food. Maybe in this year's Halloween strip Phillipe IS Ray's homecoming meal.

Why does Phillipe's pig costume include an afro?  Was he influenced by the naked guy?

[V-Adore]

My interpretation was that Philippe, in the style of little kids who design their own Halloween costumes, is a little vague on what a pig looks like. That, or he just wanted to wear an Afro wig.

[wombat]

Perhaps he feels that some kind of wig or headgear is obligatory for a costume. It's a reasonable conclusion to arrive at, I think.

[AugustWest]

Maybe he's trying to be attractive to Teador.

I feel that large numbers of cans should be awarded to anyone who can find the source of Fig. 1. Bonus for doing so without trawling through large amounts of porn.

[Drygioni]

I can reliably inform you that typing 'naked man' into Google and checking the first few pages is neither productive or healthy.

I am now moving onto 'naked dude'. The first page of results is nothing if not discouraging.

Interesting.

"Are you sure it's not time for a colorful metaphor?"

I love the disclaimer by Beef at the end.  Also the alt-text.

"Eidetic memory" is the more precise and less misleading term for "photographic memory."  I know I got it cause I memorized the names of all the people with eidetic memory in the Wikipedia article.  Look: Mozart, Nikola Tesla, John of Gorze.  Oh, I could go on.

Also, I'm pretty sure everyone thinks in mentalese, which I suppose is like Esperanto.
