i remember for instance our sex ed teacher going over condoms, and at one point she jokingly said "baby I'm too big for a condom" in this jockish voice, then proceeded to roll a condom over her fist and down her forearm, and the class erupted in laughter
i guarantee nobody in the class accepted that excuse from some dude ever, and was therefore safer!
That's a funny mental image, but it's not a very good demonstration. People shouldn't use inappropriately-sized condoms. They don't feel good and they're more likely to break. Your penis is more sensitive fist, and you're not subjecting that (now-overstressed) condom to friction and heat.
It would have been better if she had shown the different sizes of condoms available and just said, "If you're a big guy, buy the large ones."
i am paraphrasing 30 seconds of demonstration from something that happened 15 years ago

Did anyone else have to watch the terrible awful slides of STDs? Like the worst most infected and pus filled dicks.
Girls were split off and watched a similar one about vaginas.
We had comprehensive sex education in my middle and high schools, and they said "abstinence is the only really safe sex" millions of times. Over and over again that was repeated, drilled into our fucking heads. But then they moved on to "but if you do have sex, here is how you make it safer."
That is the standard, usual way in which sex ed is taught.
Yeah, my high school sex ed experience was a shitload of abstinence, the evils of teen pregnancy, the horror of STDs, the fear of AIDS, for days on end.
And then one day on birth control.
And then back to abstinence.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

That's not quite how it works. If you're a truly big guy, you need extra large, or at least a Magnum for some extra comfort.
The reason is because the little and middle-dicked among us are sold condoms labeled "large" size as a marketing ploy, because no man will buy a box of condoms that says "small" on it.

It keeps throttling my downloads to 9 kbps. It's been like this for weeks.
utorrent itself doesn't throttle. Your ISP will, though. The only suggestion I can make is that under Options>Preferences>BitTorrent, you make sure protocol encryption is set to "forced" and the "allow legacy connections" box is unchecked.
I recently switched ISPs and it continued like that. Also it appears to be a common problem, just looked it up.
Hm. In that case, is the port utorrent uses open on your router? Check your Up/Down limits too. A lot of times, if you leave your "upload" setting on unlimited, people downloading from you can flood the connection, which will force your download speed into the basement. Limit your upload speed to 10-20k/sec and downloads shouldn't have a problem.
I limited the upload speed.
It's weird though, downloads start at high speeds and after 10 minutes or so they just go down to 9 kbps.
Yes! Seriously, this is exactly what happened to me!
You'll have to bite the bullet and restart eventually.

All I remember about sexual education was awkwardly watching a video of a couple going at it in class.
It was a good five minutes or so of just this guy pounding away.
That and the weird kid asking what happened if you had sex with an already pregnant girl (like did they form a line? Or did it replace the pre-existing one).
And yet I seem to pick up better habits that most (I remember friends talking about "double-bagging" and so forth. Actually, that guy is a Dad now.)

LoL with PA people was about 90% of the time much more fun than soloqueue. The other 10% of the time it wasn't as bad as some of the soloqueue horror stories I've heard, but when you are used to a chill community, having it switch to non chill serious biznasss is grating.
I defiantly learned a lot from pa people, but burned out on the game and having a few days of serious bizness games sucked. 21st was fun people to play with though.
Interesting little fact from the CDC. The US teenage birthrate is at its lowest point since they started recording it in the 1940's. Though I wouldn't say this is from abstinence education but instead from a changing culture where it is becoming a bigger and bigger stigma against having kids early.
Personally I would prefer they would do some comprehensive sex ed. Mostly due to STDs such as HIV, Hep C and such. Also it should include homosexual sex ed as well. But I don't live in magic land.

We got both. Along with both sexes getting pseudo-practical training on the use of various prophylactics. How to apply a condom to a wooden dowel and how to improvise a dental dam for both sexes. It was fairly comprehensive.

I wonder if it's due to a stigma, or a shifting cultural change where people in general are waiting later and later to have kids
so you're less likely to have peers/friends/siblings/role models who are parents in their early or mid 20s then you were a few decades ago

This doesn't sound like a much better solution.
I mean, birth control is kind of an important thing. If you're going to tell people how to use it, you kind of want to cover as many of the common misunderstandings, misuses and things as you can.

None of my friends from HS or college have kids. That's... wow, that's fucking weird. We're almost 30.
I'm curious now to hear what people think of my voice, and whether they could detect an accent. I haven't been paying much attention lately and I think some Texan might be slipping in there.
Did you pick up any Irish while staying there? I know I've picked up a bit of English in my accent since living here, which confuses people back home when I visit
I discovered while overseas that I'm an accent chameleon... It only takes me two or three days to pick up an accented English from wherever I am. I definitely had a bit of the Galway accent while I was there, and for a while afterwards. I still can't shake saying "cheers" instead of "thanks", and even the occasional "yer man / yer one" slips out.

One of the theories I heard on NPR are that shows like 16 and pregnant are taking away the mystique of teenage motherhood from many girls pushing back the age they want to have children. Now of course this is national average. There are still places where teen pregnancy is very very high and a major issue. It is a cultural change though which is for the better.

"Cheers" bugs the crap out of me. For about 2 years maybe longer, it seemed to become the default goodbye for anyone I knew under the age of 50 in NZ. It still happens in London but not as bad as it was back in the day

Cheers is an awesome word, and should be used everywhere.
While I do use it quite a lot, I also accept cheers is one of those words that you use instead of thanks to try and trick people into think you have 'people skills'.
