Wince said...: Wouldn't guessing penis come before guessing "sperm," since at least some fraction of the population of dick suckers, rather than spit, either swallow or eschew the ejaculate entirely?; 10/19/11, 9:53 AM

Which would also include other people's farts.

sean said...: It's interesting the bifurcation of American culture. You have mediums like rap music and daytime TV (the latter watched mostly by women), which are incredibly vulgar and sexually explicit, and then you have a set of regulated environments, like workplaces and classrooms, where speech of this sort can get you fired.

The Victorians had a similarly bifurcated culture (though the divisions were not in the same place), and later generations considered them hypocrites. In fact, we still do. I wonder what later generations will think of us?; 10/19/11, 10:30 AM

It's from a gospel that got left out of the version we think of as the Bible.; 10/19/11, 10:52 AM
edutcher said...: Q-tip (with something on it).

Actually, if that were the answer, the choices would be:

spit, swallow, or gargle.; 10/19/11, 10:54 AM

...blow dart

Nah, the blow dart goes in the near end of the blowgun tube (some sources say blowpipe), which is held to the lips, not placed in the oral cavity.

Unless the Amazonian blowgun hunter shoots you in the mouth... I mean you in the general sense... unless J is reading this.; 10/19/11, 10:56 AM
Scott M said...: Actually, I don't think that gospel was written until an Angel made Biff spend weeks in a hotel room writing it. Coincidentally, the angel was hooked on daytime soaps.; 10/19/11, 10:56 AM

Heavy, man. Real George. You are up with the latest jive. Stay nervous Pervus. You are a bold guy. I'd suggest you work "poo poo" into your next post to really be hip.
