Since neither Ellen nor Max are really the best spokesperson for polyamory, I might as well go ahead and link the Wikipedia article.

Polyamory is like communism - it works really well on paper, but in practice, it really only functions in the long term if everyone is a perfectly selfless robot powered only by hugs. But then, the same could be said of any relationship.

I like the phrase "gargle your manchowder".

0045-------------------------------------

(Friday. INT: on the couch)

JH: So you DO have a boyfriend?
EB: She has three.
MH: I'm in an open polyamorous relationship.
---------------
JH: You're in a what now?
EB: They've got a sort of free love sexual commune thing going on, with some sort of weird rules that they claim make it work.
MH: Basically, I'm free to gargle your manchowder, but only if Wallace, Trent, Simon and Carol approve of you first.
---------------
JH: So do you and Carol just timeshare the three guys, or are you bisexual?
MH: I prefer the term "omnivorous".
---------------
EB: See, you think that's sexy when you say that, but it's really not.
MH: And it's occasionally confusing, since dietarily I'm actually a vegan.
