[QUOTE=Dottygumdrop] I just googled it and checked out the website (definitely NOT work-safe!), but it left me wondering, “Why the heck would anyone want a 3lb stainless steel dildo???” :eek: [/QUOTE] That’s not a dildo, that’s my thermos!! ---

When I read the title of this thread, I thought to myself, “Only on the SDMB would I see such a title, and that is why I love this place.” Then I read this: [QUOTE=Salt Seller] Most people are unaware of this, but that was the working title of Proust’s _Remembrance of Things Past_. [/QUOTE] , and realized how much I truly love this place. Where else would I find such sublimely raunchy yet intellectual juxtapositions? I know Blowfish comments often on the best way to clean the toys they sell. Some can even be boiled. That could provide some more good roommate discussions. ---

[QUOTE=Duke of Rat] I can see you’ve never been to any of those “off the beaten path” sex shows. [/QUOTE] What, you mean Sue Johansen? I got my mom to watch the show a few times. After seeing several toys, she decided that the show had to be a joke, since nobody really uses such things. 😃 ---

[QUOTE=Shirley Ujest] Because if you ever run out of anti aircraft missles during an attack on your home, and you have rocket launcher, you can stick it to the bad guys in a quasi-metaphorical way. No one ever expects the Three Pound Dildo Launcher. [/QUOTE] {Channeling Bruce Cockburn} _If I had a dildo launcher…"_ Anyone remember that Chris Isaak show where they discussed the anal beads? I guess the person using them did use them like a pull-start, and apparently things get messy that way! :eek: ---

[QUOTE=Shodan] I am trying desperately not to imagine what they do with the potatoes before they put them in the dishwasher. And failing. Hold me. Regards, Shodan [/QUOTE] Hmm well if you get embarrassed about shopping for these sorts of toys, just pop down to your local market and buy a bag of baby spuds, and after having your fun, pop 'em in the dishwasher for a rinse. After that boil them up and serve with some butter and crushed mint to accompany a niece piece of fish. Now you can’t do that with a 3 lb dildo. Is that helping? ---

[QUOTE=Ellen Cherry] Wasn’t there a thread once by someone annoyed at having to look at the butt plugs drying on the back of the toilet? [/QUOTE] :eek: I came here to tell a story about a butt plug drying on the back of a toilet. But I don’t think I ever posted it here. (Which is, in this case a friend’s roomate. I came out to visit him in SF for a week. Walk in and there it was. Hey I don’t have a problem with it but I think I should know you for more than five minutes before I know exactly what you’ve had up your ass. {this is the same roomate who a day later carried on a long phone conversation with me in the room with someone who answered his personal ad about how he was into enemas.}) For what it’s worth a dishwasher is the recommended way to wash sex toys. Just…not recommended to leave them there with other peoples dishes. ---

Jelly for contraception placed in the rectum? Notwithstanding the grape flavor these people need to get some biology lessons. ---
