Not for a teenaged boy! Esp one who was dared by his buddies.
If you happen to be dating Lauren Boebert, maybe…
Lol! It’s a requirement.
Many do not. Here’s a list if you care to peruse. Even your own choice of words suggest something other than what you’re asserting. If it is in fact “many/most,” then “some” are not. Perhaps “wiener in the popcorn box” is one of the latter. The fact that it would be trivially easy to pull it off (heh!) or that it’s not at all an outsized tale doesn’t rule it out as a UL.
Do you assume that’s a comprehensive list??? They have a few examples of each major type of UL. And yes, I had already read it.
How can you say the popcorn thing did not happen? Is it because you didn’t see it happen?
From the list provided: How can you say that none of these entirely possible tales didn’t happen in the19th century? You weren’t there, after all! How do you know that no child anywhere was killed by a stranger with poisoned Halloween candy?
I’m not making that claim. I didn’t write that article.
BTW, the only documented case of poisoned Halloween candy was done by a father (a dentist, iirc) to his kid for the insurance money.
I think there might be a miscommunication here on the definition of an “urban legend”. Some people use a definition that requires that a tale be false in order to be an urban legend, while others require only that it spread like one, regardless of its veracity.
The poster for the 1976 American sex comedy “Feeling Up!” features a man with a popcorn tub over his crotch with a wacky expression as the woman reaches into it, but I have never seen the movie to see if it actually occurs.
Considering that the flaps at the bottom of the box are folded upward, getting your pecker back out is probably the hard part. Under the circumstances, preserving the popcorn and the box is probably not the highest priority.
Yes. I think people are talking past each other because of the different definitions.
I’m saying that this is an urban legand because it speads like on, and that while it’s possible that someone has or someones have done this, the claimed number of incidents are going to outnumber any real ones by orders of magnitude.
I’m not particularly convinced by people claiming to have personally done outlandish sexual behaviors as teenagers.
There was a particular poster who claimed to have personally done all sorts of incredible sexual antics. Given the responses to his posts, he was not generally believed.
So while it’s true that someone somewhere has tried pretty much any given sexual thing, there are also many teenagers (especially boys) who lie or exaggerate what they have done. There’s probably a similar percentage of claimed Navy Seals vs. actual former members.
I dunno…I think it’s a well known enough urban legend that probably lots of guys, probably mostly adolescents, will have tried something like this – more than the number of specific stories, or times movies / TV have alluded to it.
Obviously it’s a really bad idea for lots of reasons, but people do stupid things. And this is one that’s pretty trivial to set up.
Imagine the grease spot left behind after premature pullout 
Movie popcorn costs near as much as a movie ticket, nobody should be letting the boys hold the box. A communal box of popcorn can give you a communicable disease, hands off my box! 
When I read this thread title, I thought it was going to be the worst “body part found in food” story I’ve ever heard.
Lorena Bobbit strikes again!
I’m with you. I 100% guarantee more than one boy or man has tried it.
Want some jiffy lube to go with that jiffy pop?!
I realize I’m replying to post that’s almost old enough to legally drink from a long lost poster but this has to be high up there for winner of the username/topic contest.
It’s not corrugated cardboard & any butter at the bottom would accumulate at the lowest point if the container is at all angled, It’s not lying in hot cheese & sauce like the porno pizza delivery meme.
When my daughter starts dating, I’ll make sure to tell her to hold her own popcorn. Good lord, boys are assholes.
Either that, or have a good comeback at the ready. “Feels like a penis, only smaller.”
