One minute.

That’s all we have.

More than that’s foreplay, a waste of time.

This is my new theory.

The first bite of a greasy burger, drag of a cigarette, sip of a cold beer. After that, the pleasure wanes.

The best part of sex is penetration.

Not everyone agrees. Actually, no-one does. Most people quibble about the time frame – that it should be called one second, or two minutes.

Pedants.

My ex made a cruel (and possibly inaccurate) comment about my sexual performance.

They’re all missing the concept.

Most of our thrills, what excites us, takes place in a short time frame.

Unaffordable mortgages, long-term relationships, self-development courses …

They’re distractions.

We should be focusing on short-term thrills instead.

I don’t know what, exactly, but I want my groupies.

One minute.

The clock is ticking.
