Another public service announcement

Every once in a while, my favorite blog, "The Art of Darkness," posts a list of amusing things the blogger has seen online. I found the most recent of these posts

particularly entertaining, as it included, among other quotes, the following:

"I will be buried in a spring loaded casket filled with confetti, and a future archaeologist will have one awesome day at work." JiminyKicksIt

"I finally learned how to teach my guys to ID the passive voice. If you can insert “by zombies” after the verb, you have passive voice." johnsonr

and
dammit owls you KNOW who this is" donni.

However, I feel compelled to correct a misapprehension of sighties as expressed in the following statement:

In the kingdom of the blind, the one-eyed man doesn’t really have to wear clothes ever. KenJennings

In my experience, I can almost always tell when a man is naked, because there are basically two kinds of men (outside of one's partner) in the world.

One is the kind of man who sounds really embarrassed when accidentally caught naked, even by a blind woman.

The other kind of man sounds really proud when caught naked, even by a blind woman.

Three- or four-year-old boys exhibit no particular affect when caught naked by anybody. (I have my suspicions that housemate T. falls into this category.)

That was an awesome collection, and I'm stunned you neglected to quote the following (I fixed that for you)

If you do an image search for “Coughing”, you get photos of people performing fellatio on ghosts.

Are your insights re: naked males equally applicable to girls & women?

Are there other fraught states which us sighties might doubt you can perceive?

Bad haircuts? Large pimples on the nose? Forgotten bags?
