One plus of this sort of rubbish is that nonpuritans who like Hitch are more likely to take themselves out of the gene pool by contracting life-threatening venereal diseases, smashing their skulls in bike and motorcycle accidents, and being catapulted through thewindshield inauto accidents. I suppose the emrace of risk extends to driving drunk or high while enjoying oral sex, thereby increasing the likelihood of Darwinian selection of the sharper kind. Ina ddition they will die earlier because of obesity and alchoholism, though the bottle doesn't seem to have slowed Hitch himself down enough. A word to the wise: don't have oral sex with Hitch, you never know here he's beeting putting it.
