Musings on the poll

slemslempikeI technically really like GraphJam, but in practice what happens is that I get quietly infuriated by the graphs which are clearly using an inappropriate format, or haven't labelled their axes, or are just WRONGLY DIVIDED, and have to go somewhere else for a while.
I won my boots. Yay?
Thank you all very much for your answers to yesterday's poll. I am clearly in the minority when it comes to the knowledge of my menstrual cycle (or rather, one's menstrual cycle, as I am quietly confident that I am, despite my lack of tracking, still top expert on my specific menstrual cycle), though I am beginning to suspect that if I started to pay attention to my body it would become a lot clearer. I don't think I am in sync with my housemates either, which is possibly odd, or maybe that whole thing's a myth.
I no longer recall the specifics that led up to my long-ago argument about auto-nipple-licking, but during the argument I was adamantly asserting that most women couldn't lick their own nipple, so apparently I was wrong, as my flist can overwhelmingly lick their own nipples. (Unless everyone who wasn't about to try cannot in fact do so, and then it is equal - perhaps the refusal to attempt it is in fact a subconsious bodily sulk.) Though small-breasted women are less likely to be able to do so. I seem to vaguely remember that it was during a debate about whether or not porn was realistic, so I still had moral right on my side. Possibly this explains why I argued the negative, despite in fact being able to lick my own nipple. I do feel though that I should have incorporated more variables into the question, such as flexibility of neck, protuberance of nipples, length of tongue, motility of breast, etc.
Of the 27 answers I received to the plea for how to make myself do work, 8 simply said that if I found out, to disseminate that knowledge forthwith. Sadly, I do not know, though I very much like the answer "Why would you want to? You deserve a rest", which is comforting, if factually incorrect.
I was, onestercreep, doing work this afternoon, but I was working from an e-book and now the library portal is down for maintainance, so I am thwarted. Clearly I can't instead read one of the many physical tomes right in front of me, or write up my notes, or play around with EndNote instead. That would be madness.
