Kashin didn't "pass" Kashin died.
Actually, she was put down. "Kashin died" doesn't suggest any agency, whereas the zoo staff have actually been pretty upfront about the fact that she was in a lot of pain and so they made the decision to euthanise her.
My kids are gutted, by the way.

Go the Wot Wots!

... puppies *and* booty. ...
Done... as soon as my mind's eye stops burning with the most disturbing mental snapshot ever.
Well, I wouldn't say that it's that disturbing an image (SFW).

And if he was then his Jockey ads wouldn't be very impressive.Photoshop.
Specifically, the Liquify tool. Very useful for applying slight distortions such as, ahem, making things bigger or smaller.

The best of luck for it. Remember, half the fun is being able to describe the procedure in exacting detail afterwards to get rid of annoying relatives at family gatherings.
You could get a tattoo under your hair!
This would be excellent. Take the chance to do this. And you know what you need to get?
Get a treasure map tattooed on your scalp. Then let the hair grow back afterwards.
You know you want to.

Attitudes to women in other countries: I spent a fair amount of time in various parts of China (mainly Beijing and the surrounds) in the mid 90s, in my university holidays. Since it was cold, everyone wore great big coats to prevent bits dropping off. This meant that any secondary sexual characteristics below the neck were effectively off display.
So on several occasions (at least three), I heard a discussion nearby about whether I was male or female. On the argument for female: long hair and earrings. On the argument for male: beard. Twice, it reached the point where someone just came up and asked me. I found this hilarious (obviously - I'm still telling this story a decade and a half later), and there was no malice - I just came outside the standard gender categories that people were used to. Everyone was very nice about it; more curious than anything else.
Disclaimer: I was not sexually harassed at any point. Unless you count overly aggressive prostitutes touting for business in the nightclubs.

I blame Viagra. Is there another drug in history whose effects are quite so, er, measurable?
Penicillin.

Around here, there seems no such thing as a jack.
Ahem.
Will I really have to duplicate this ?
Remember: big fish, little fish, cardboard box.

Sayana - you do know that the needles don't go all the way in, right? Really, it's not that bad - you should be much more worried about the permanence than the pain.
A recumbent lion - that means it's lion down, right?

Yes, this debate about shoes is pointless and distracting.
Emma - what's this new tattoo you've got booked? We knew you wouldn't be able to resist the siren lure of the needles for long.

Ah, true. For some reason I was mentally confusing celts and gauls.
Does that count as an own gaul, then?
