Yeah, so this should be posted in General Questions, but I feel it’s way too stupid for that. Anyway, I was in class, and a friend of mine asked me what a “Cincinnatti Hotplate” is.
Well, right away I got the idea that it probably wasn’t something that I wanted to Google. So I thought I’d come to the next best thing. Anybody have any idea just what it is?
I googled Cincinnati Hotplate and found a few references to chili. When I put the phrase in quotes I only got one hit:
when visiting Case, anyone get a cleveland steamer?.. RE: when visiting Case, anyone get … (in reply to johnny hardcore IV), I prefer a Cincinnati Hotplate. 3/23/2004 5:13:12 PM, ID: 6978701. Page: [1]. …
It’s from the princeton review message board (which requires registration to enter) so I didn’t press it.
I still don’t know what it is, but that link gets me laughing!
Her intent was to find out what this phrase was that was used on Sealab:2021. Being the nice guy that I am, I offered to find out for her. That’ll teach me to do a friend a favor. Blech.
You’re on the right track - that’s what the dictionary refers to as a hotplate. Combine that with their definition of Cincinnati Slider and there you go.
:eek: is all I have to say. I like to keep my poo and my sex compartmentalized. Apparently YMMV! :eek:
After escaping from a year in the copro-purgatory of Bowling Green, I find it highly amusing that Ohio cities lend their names to all of these, errrm, highbrow(n) activities.
Yeah, I wonder why that is with Ohio… Cincinnati Hotplate, Cleveland Steamer. I took the liberty of making up some other names. Maybe someday each can be fitted with an appropriate perversion.

Holy shit (ha!) I haven’t laughed this hard in awhile. I like all those fake names. I’m not sure exactly why they tickle my funnybone, but they sure do.
