Undo circumsion damage . .

I don’t know if this is really worth starting a thread over but I didn’t dare bring it up in Great Debates: every time I read that thread the banner ad at the bottom is “Undo Circumsion Damage”. Why is that? No other thread in that forum has that banner ad, as far as I know.

It’s driving me BATS.

This was an extremely wise choice on your part.

There used to be a poster who would sound the charge against circumcision (not “circumsion”, which would be pronounced sirk-UM-shun) every chance he got, linking to some freaky-looking system designed to undo the process, which he swore by. His posts, the debates they inspired in several fora, the references and links to his posts, etc. probably take up such a massive amount of space in the database that the Google ads pick up on them all the time.

Does Google read the archives at all, let alone from that far back? The poster in question dates from a bit before I started posting here seven years ago. Even if it does, I can’t imagine that all the relevant threads/links/etc. could add up to more than a tiny fraction of a percent of the archives.

Jack Dean Tyler. I think he was banned right before or right after I registered. And I think the device in question was a “Tug-A-Hoy”.

Shah! Don’t bring up the ghost of posters banned! Especially not that one. :stuck_out_tongue:

I’ve been here just about six years now and every time a circumcision thread comes up someone will immediately say “don’t bring that up! There used to be this one guy…!”

There’s probably a cute latin term for deflecting an argument before it even starts, but I can’t be arsed to look it up.

Never heard of the original guy, either. But everyone still loves to say “oh, don’t bring that up!”

The only thing I can conclude is people into circumcision are also superstitious, which actually makes the most sense.

Google ads for BBQ grills???

Oh, and this is the google ad that popped up in one thread: TLC Tugger.

ETA: NSFW. DEFINITELY NSFW!

Ack!!! I can’t believe I didn’t spell Circumcision properly!!! WTF? I guess my spelling gland was, you know, just overpowered with, um, something or other. blushes with a combination of horror and shame

Anyway, I seem to have aroused pleasant memories for some of you.

Some of you, not so much.

I know, but I wasn’t going to name them. Oh well… :wink:

It’s not just him, there have been a couple circumcision threads since I joined the boards and they seem to always devolve into trainwrecks. It is just one of those topics best left undiscussed around here.

Yeah, but that’s more to circumcise, or not to circumcise, rather than to “undue” it.

He had interesting ideas on how to sexually pleasure a woman, too, as I remember. shudder

Do I even want to know?

IIRC, naturally, he was extremely anti-semitic.

The last big one I recall did include undoing circumcisions, but you are correct that it was not the main thrust of the conversation.

Naturally, anyone with questions about circumcision is Hitler. Naturally.

Probably not. I can’t seem to find the thread in question, though I’m sure somebody has a link, but I do remember the bit about sucking as hard as possible (I’m thinking the term “vaccum-suck”) on a woman’s breasts supposedly being a magic orgasm inducer for all of us. It sounded anything but pleasurable to me. Ouch.

What thread?

The “stick a fork in her, Hillary’s done” thread.

circumcision circumcision circumcision circumcision

I do know how to spell it. I do. I really do.

Also, levdrakon, another one of these: WTF?

vison, levdrakon was being sarcastic. And rightly so: assuming that someone is anti-Semitic because he’s anti-circumcision is absurd, like saying someone is anti-Muslim because they don’t like prayer mats. There was actually a lively debate about circumcision after my bar mitzvah. I shit you not. And as far as I can recall, 100% of the participants in that discussion were Jewish. (Reform, sure, but certainly not anti-Semitic.)
