I somehow failed to tick a "don't mail me things" box when I signed up for Shoppers' loyalty card. Thus, every month, I get glow, "Canada's Beauty & Health Magazine".

This month's came today; I immediately noticed one of the teaser headlines on the cover: "Find a great lover (without getting horizontal!)"

Really? WTF is the point of that, exactly?

I assure you that, should I somehow find a great lover (or even a good lover), I will most definitely not be spending effort to avoid being horizontal with him.

The retardness of that prompted me to go look.
According to the Shopper's website, they charge points for a subscription to the magazine.

I thought I'd mention that in case they had slipped that past you.

You are a prince among men; I knew there was a reason that I adore you. Beyond, you know, the amusement I get from watching you order "Guinness" at microbrewery pubs.

In all seriousness, thank you. I hadn't realized. I suspect I'm getting "warm up" free copies before they hit me with a subscription request, however, because I'd have noticed a 7500 point hit to my points balance.

I looked - the article itself is apparently about how important the basic structure of your relationship (and things like "the guy doing housework" -- how very heteronormative of you, glow) is to a couple's sex life.

Nothing says all the fun has to be horizontal.

I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin', ya know?

Well yes.. I have done this before, just not lately. I still say it shouldn't *preclude* the horizontal.
