SteveR કહ્યું...

They are proceeding well with the erection. They shouldn't be so hard on the folks making jokes.

john કહ્યું...

Could their problem actually be they have the wrong trousers?

john કહ્યું...

Techno trousers are now all sewn in China.

Chip S. કહ્યું...

"President Hu, you have a call from a Mr. Christo."

Darrell કહ્યું...

Titus pre-bought the first condo along the glans.

SteveR કહ્યું...

Only one elevator shaft!

Chip S. કહ્યું...

I suppose a top-floor observatory would've been too much.

Darrell કહ્યું...

Yes. Retrograde ejaculation issues.

Mark કહ્યું...

Is there a fountain at the top?

David કહ્યું...

Thank God for the common people.

My favorite mockery of the system was the old Soviet joke about the rewards of employment in the Soviet Union.

"We pretend to work, and they pretend to pay us."

Darrell કહ્યું...

Yes. Retrograde ejaculation issues.

In fact, if the artist Christo ever decides to cover it with fabric or anything, engineers have already decided that the design must incorporate a reservoir tip. Just in case.

William કહ્યું...

The architect is working out his edifice complex.

Unknown કહ્યું...

Didn't anyone see this in the drawings?

Mark કહ્યું...

Is it held aloft by hydraulic pressure? I foresee bad things if the rivers run dry.

Chip S. કહ્યું...

They say the architect wanted to make sure his building could withstand terrorist attacks, so when asked what kind of materials he wanted the tower made of he said emphatically, "Refractory. Period."

Darrell કહ્યું...

Didn't anyone see this in the drawings?

It was obscured by the mile-high woman over it. But alas, there were cutbacks.

Clyde કહ્યું...

Censorship is always a "dick move."

campy કહ્યું...

Will the completed building last more than four hours?

rhhardin કહ્યું...

It shows the generative power of censorship.

edutcher કહ્યું...

They need quick dry concrete. The kinds that gets hard fast.

Astro કહ્યું...

500 foot? If they built it in the US it would be 700 foot.

edutcher કહ્યું...

Does the Women's Ministry building think it's too big?

Astro કહ્યું...

They need to add a couple domes nearby, like the capital building in Tallahassee, FL:

penis and balls

lemondog કહ્યું...

Next project:
Breast shaped buildings

Icepick કહ્યું...

To have any hope of successfully stopping the penis jokes about THAT building they will have to build several more building of that size - all of them directly around the new HQ, so no one can see it. 'Cause, WOW, man, that thing totally looks like a dong....

Icepick કહ્યું...

In fact, if the artist Christo ever decides to cover it with fabric or anything, engineers have already decided that the design must incorporate a reservoir tip. Just in case.

Will it be ribbed?

Mightier than the sword.

Oso Negro કહ્યું...

The final erection of an impotent regime?

Sam L. કહ્યું...

See various temples in Japan...

Better not have a fountain on top.

poppa india કહ્યું...

Will we see these in Manhattan if Rep. Weiner becomes mayor of New York?

He's probably pissed that this building is cut. I'm sure he wanted a view that could automatically sheath itself during the off hours.

ROFL!!! They are trying to assemble Voltron as we speak.

Now I'm going to wonder if it will have a giant fondue fountain at the top for all the cheese the Chinese have spewed on a giant building to look like a huge cock. Something, the entire male population of china lacks. I wonder if the heads of the ones that approved it will roll.
