Episode 205: Face 2 Face 8: Wedding Stiffness

Outline
03:40 - I just finished my associates degree [hold for applause], and I'll be moving into an apartment closer to my new school this summer. The problem is, I don't have any life styles. I can't cook, I don't know how to iron clothes, and paying bills is a totally foreign concept to me. Basically, I need whatever wisdom you three have on being an adult. -- Steve

I don't even care what he does or say, I just wanna tie him up and do many things to him :D Personally, how do you rate his looks, from 0 to 10?"

16:08 - I'm a professional writer. Over the years, I've (for the most part) developed a healthy attitude in regards to reviews and criticisms. But last November, a comic mini-series I wrote got a scathing review from a Mr. Clint McElroy, and it haunts me still. How do I deal with criticism from your dad? -- Chris Hastings

33:23 - From The Audience - So my roommate and I just moved into a new place, and found the last person's checkbook. How much do I take? -- Sam

37:41 - Small problem and a big problem. Small problem: I could really use a Pepsi Max. Big problem: I have a magically cute dog. Now let me explain: this dog needs exercise. He's five months old, he needs to expend the energy so he's not aggressive around the house. He's magically cute. I can't make it one block without the foot traffic of new York city stopping to make a comment and make me feel obligated to not keep walking, because he's so fucking cute. What do I do? How do I make either myself or my dog more stand-offish or more unapproachable? -- Brent

39:29 - Y - Sent in by Jakob Locker, from Yahoo Answers user Jenn, who asks: "What if my fiancé gets an erection during our ceremony? I'm 35 and my fiancé's 38. Our wedding is set for October. Okay, here's the issue: he gets erections very easily. I am not complaining! But I have to admit, it feels like I'm dating a teenage boy sometimes. Even if he just holds my hand, he will often sport a noticeable erection. It can be a little awkward, not to mention when he walks around in the house naked sporting one. I am just wondering how to handle this at the wedding and reception. He is nervous too. Any tips? I am just worried when he gets hard it can take a long time for it to go down. I am sure people will snicker and take pictures, which will  [question unfinished] "

46:10 - So I live in New York City and walk anywhere from twenty minutes to two hours a day thanks to my commute, errands in the city, etc. No matter what kind of shoes I'm wearing, socks or tights, I always seem to end up with bits of city grit in my shoes, annoying me until I can find a discreet moment to clean them out. The worst is when I get stuck in a situation where it's not socially acceptable for hours on end to escape and rectify the situation. It happens most often with my dress shoes, so I'm frequently stuck in a work meeting or at a fancy event with bits of debris, making me nuts with every step. Does this happen to everyone? Is New York City just extra grimy? Am I just bad at wearing shoes? What can I do? Help! -- Barefoot in Brooklyn

49:42 - Y - Sent in by Ira Wray, from a deleted Yahoo Answers user, who asks: "Trampoline sex???????????? Is it safe to have sex on a trampoline? I have a friend who's tried it and he says it's fine, but i just wanted to make sure (don't really want any embarrassing injurys)."

53:43 - I was wondering if I could get a picture of all of your triforce tattoos? -- Pete

54:48 - I have three kids. I was wondering if there was anything you would like to know. Is there anything that you would like to know about? -- Pete

56:20 - Housekeeping
