Get along and catch Prof Badiou if you can. He's one of my favourite speakers. They man has a wicked sense of humour too.

Apparently Badiou has a tradition of fucking his 30-something year old ladyfriend up the ass every morning without lube. That's straight from Zizek's mouth so I can't vouch for its truth-value, but it was one of the many inappropriate anecdotes revealed by Zizek to Lisa at dinner.

Hmm, then that wasn't the lady Badiou was with in Melbourne back in September.

Badiou's a physical giant though, so that kind of 'bear' behaviour wouldn't surprise me. Still, it takes Zizek to dream up the right (or not so right) time to say mention these things. I worry about Zizek sometimes. He's gotten progressively less stable over the years.
