Ha! I knew it before I even got to number 3! I even once had a thread about trying to write a joke. Something like “There’s a new skin magazine where sexy nuns bare their bottoms. The target audience is sailors and navigators. It’s called Nuns and Cans.”

I’m glad that’s it. I was locked in on Della Reese’s line in _Harlem Nights_ where she told one of the others “Kiss my entire ass.”
