About 1 year ago my wife and I were in the city, in the club district (which doubles as China Town, funnily enough) and got a discount entry fee for a strip club, so... we went... and it was awesome. It was the first time I've ever been to a strip club; purely because I married young and sometimes felt guilty when I was invited to them with mates having been married, but man... ohhh... man... it was awesome. The girl we actually had that night, ended up getting triple her notes just due to when I was sitting down, my wife was next to me, the performer rocked up, and actually grinded (ground?) with my wife. It was great, my wife loves the performance, and the excitement, I enjoyed the atmosphere... and we actually go back sometimes when in the city center and just want to spend some hours on excitement.
Though its totally cool if you've never been to a strip club before, 24 was my first time. Also, not wrong about the 'adult' tag for this, Bang Bus, Milf Hunter references? Milf Hunter... that was something a mate and me would trade copies of when we were 18/19... these days its all Naughty America and Videobox, or Brazzers, though the Milf Hunter dude is a true performer, just the initial 5 minutes of his videos are worth it; hilarious shit.
The game talk was fine, but more 'adult' tagging-related discussion is freaking awesome

I haven't listened to this week's podcast yet, so I don't know the Geekbox's official consensus on the V tv show, but I just want to say that I think it sucks.

[Mr_eX]

I disagree with Higgins on V. Had they been slower with the reveals I don't think the show would be nearly as good as it is(it's not great but its pretty good) because of the fact that all big reveals the entire audience would already know because the show is a remake. The pilot should have been 2 hours instead of 1 but theres no way that should have been seasons worth of material.

You can hide all the annoy facebook things like farmville updates. Makes it a whole lot nicer. If you move your cursor over to the top right of a post in your news feed a button will come up with an option to hide all posts for that application/person.

[SJSchmidt93]

Are you guys ever going to talk about Modern Warfare 2? It's not that it's not being talked about enough because it is (even on the damn news) but I'd like to hear your guys thoughts on the game. Especially on the whole controversy.

Judging by the fact that you've not discussed it I'm guessing you've not played it so, whatever.

[Raine]

Ya'll name dropped a few of the "reality" porn sites, so I don't feel like it's too out of place for me to name drop one, and that one is Crackwhore Confessions. It is exactly what it sounds like it is. Just thought the existence of this site was funny enough to pass on.

That potential Karen/Patrick podcast could be relevant to my interests.

[W0lfbl1tzers]

Does Fitch still look like this?

[RedPanda77]

I think everyone wants more porn discussions.

I wouldn't mind a DCU update once in awhile.

Actually, he looks a bit more like this nowadays:

Are you dating a whitey??? Props to you!!!

Nah, I just think that it'd make for some interesting discussions.

Wow @ Fitch's Japanese fanboy elitism still trying to figure out if he's serious or just trolling. It is true that Taiwan's public transportation system is highly regarded I'm not sure about global public transport statistics though so I can't back up Karen's claim. Though if it helps with Fitch's fanboyism most of Taiwan's public works was developed during WWII. As a result of Japan's genocidal imperialism in East Asia (collectively referred to as the Japanese War Crimes or the Asian Holocaust) one of the things they did was turn Taiwan into a major naval base of operations and during this process heavily improved communications and transport throughout the island nation.

Also to elaborate on Fitch's dig @ Canada I believe what he is referring to is the HDI (Human Development Index), which Canada has been in the top 10 (with the exception of 1993) since it's inception in 1990 and was been number one the greatest number of times (eight) during that period. Followed by Norway with seven times and Japan with three times and Iceland twice. (Waits for Fitch to call bullshit on this for whatever reason)

Although I suppose he could be referring to one of the many quality of life surveys of countries or cities of the world in media like Forbes magazine/site, mercer.com, etc., which have placed Canada and Canadian cities very highly in terms of quality of life or the best places to live in the world.

I agree totally, my wife is Chinese-born/Hong Kong-raised and to hear other peoples experiences in a mix Asian (especially Taiwan/Chinese/Hong Kong) white relationship is very interesting to her and me. The first year was a nightmare after marriage, culture differences were many and varied, love to hear such a future podcast from Karen and Patrick... though Karen often seems more acclimated to the West, perhaps that is a Taiwan thing... or maybe she came to America when she was younger? Hell, never know how she moved to America in the first place. Though now I wonder; does she eat chicken's feet? Cos we got some in the freezer, my wife devours them... and I can't stand the damn things, I'll gladly eat Pig's Ear, Tripe, Fish Head Soup but... Chicken's Feet, ugh God Damn that is the Devil's Food.

Oh yeah, and Hong Kong has awesome public transport too, on par with Japan I'd say personally... but nothing compared to Taiwan.

To go into the discussion of the expanding Smallville universe, I think it would be funny to see a weathered old Wildcat trying to snap Clark out his is emo-ness and be a man.

I've only watched a handful of the earlier seasons (which I hope to watch all via Netflix), but the way you described emo Clark on a earlier episode, that doesn't sound like fun.
