"Porn" on the Weather Channel website?

So I’m checking out the weather on weather.com, and there’s a link to a video entitled “Yikes! Earth’s Ugliest Cannibal”. So, of course I click.

Apparently it’s a video about giant horse cocks. Wait, I mean Giant Horse Cocks. Some type of snail (incidentally, I hardly think it’s the ugliest cannibal).

I have no idea what this has to do with weather. BUT, it was highly entertaining watching the attractive Jasmine Bailey say the words “giant horse cock” repeatedly. With a straight face, I might add. I imagine it must have been hard (hah!) for the camera operators to keep a straight face. My inner 12-year-old couldn’t stop giggling.

I checked, it’s not April 1st.

I’ll spoiler-box the link since the words “giant horse cock” might cause unusual reactions among co-workers.

It is Giant Horse** Conch** (/ˈkɒŋk/0)

It sounded very peculiar to me and I was not aware that it was pronounced that way, I always thought it was basically the same as the “ch” such as “church” and “march” because Spanish is my original language.

Well, that explains it then. Sure is a subdued “n” sound though when she says it. I had to turn my volume up to hear it.

Much more funny when you think she says “cock”!

Porn? There are people turned on by big snails? :stuck_out_tongue:

Rule 34.

“Ask” and ye shall receive. Seriously, it’s a little kinky if you’re into that, but it’s fascinating. I’d dare to say that their penises are beautiful.

But sometimes they get chewed off :eek:

Guess their trying to capture some of The Naked News’ market share. :wink:

Of course there are. Rule 34.

Not the same creature, but I couldn’t help thinking that maybe the Op was referencing Horse Neck Clams at first (it clearly isn’t). The “neck” part is a euphemism for another horse part. You can see why:

Nowadays they’re often simply called “Horse Clams”, reducing understanding still further.

That’s the clam’s siphon, by the way. I understand ones put on sale at open air markets have been known to squirt passers-by. Which brings us back to the original name.

That thing has nothing on the geoduck.
