The Word, Not the Sentiment?

While driving home today, "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails started playing on the radio.

I know the song pretty well, from back in the day, but I didn't have cable TV at that time and don't think I ever heard it on the radio before.

I wasn't surprised that "fuck" was was edited out of "I want to fuck you like an animal." I live in the USA and we have issues with this word, for some reason.

However, I was a little surprised that the line "I want to feel you from the inside" was left unedited. I mean, that's just fucking, right? And as a lyric, I always thought it was more graphic imagery.

Does this seem weird to anyone else? Is it just me?

Laugh and Cry and Mostly Meh

 I've been watching Family Guy and... it's not very good.

But... there are moments:

• Hank Hill's dream.
• Obama singing "Honestly Sincere."
• The OJ Simpson opera that sounds like an actual opera.

There's not much, but it's enough that I keep watching.

Yes, I'm taking someone else's pain and making it about me in a passive aggressive way, but it's been a while.

Just once, after giving someone physical comfort, and I don't mean right after, but days or even a couple of weeks later, I'd like for a person to come to me and say, "Thank you for that hug and holding me while I was upset. I understand that you don't like touching or being touched by people and the fact that you did it for me while it caused you discomfort shows that you are not the cold, unfeeling person that you can appear to be. Thank you."

It doesn't have to be those exact words, but it would be nice to have it acknowledged that while I was giving a person the physical comfort they desired I was physically, emotionally, and mentally uncomfortable because of the touching. It had nothing to do with the sniffling or the awkward way they reached out for me. The touching.
