While I liked the “who doesn’t?” line, what really got me spitting my coffee was the image of “the wall of butt-plugs.” Isn’t that a tourist attraction in South Dakota, just past the Corn Palace?
Anyway, I don’t know about a band, but I’m sure “Wall of Butt-Plugs” would make a damn good name for something.
Oh man, I think the “butt-plug” comment just earned the award for the Funniest SDMB One-Liner of 2001 (So Far). I am at a loss for words in describing just how damn funny that was. And the visual I’m getting here, of pepper casually pondering a butt-plug, shrugging to herself, and tossing it in to the bag will probably keep me giggling hysterically for weeks. Now I’ve just got to figure out a way to tell my friends about it, without them thinking that it’s really time for me to spend a bit of quality time in a nice, padded room:
Persephone: There’s this girl on the message board, and she went to this sex shop, and she saw this butt-plug, etc. etc. etc…
Persephone’s Friends: Okay folks, lets just back away from her slowly, and maybe she won’t hurt us.
I’ll post the full details of today at a later date, probably tomorrow before I leave for the Honeymoon. I just wanted to share a little story.
My Uncle Jim and Aunt Peg came to town today. They are usually good for a laugh. Not bad folks. And they always, always bring us presents.
Anyway, I was getting a lecture today from my hard-core extreme conservative uncle today (Sample one-liner: “I believe in the legal extermination of every living thing. If someone uses a good illegally, they should be forced to use the gun to kill themselves.” This was said completely calmly and matter-of-factly).
I usually have a very hard time hiding my emotions, I guess you can say I don’t have a good pokerface. But I think I was doing an excellent job as I listened to his whole spiel. That is, until Una stood up from the table, and walked behind my uncle and started rolling her eyes and making faces! How am I supposed to stay composed when she is acting like that? I succeeded somehow, but it wasn’t easy.
She also showed my a different version of the Rudolph story today on her laptop. It was a hilarious parody. Picture Rudolph in a Goodfellas/Godfather/Casino type parody. This wouldn’t have been bad, but she showed me this on her lapton, while we were sitting in church!
She’s corrupting me.
Pepper’s wedding went off well, and she headed off to Vegas for the honeymoon. She called me yesterday to tell me everything had gone great, and they were having a great time. Vegas is hot, but they are spending most of their time indoors, stuffing themselves at the buffets, and having sex. In fact, she says they have used all of their toys except one. Try to guess which one!
They went to the “Star Trek - the Experience”, and were about to head to “Coke World” when she called me. They are staying at the Luxor, “right behind the ass of the Sphinx”, as she put it.
