> [@Optihut](#): > > Ho hum, my reading ability is down tonight, this is the second thread where I misread the title. After the post, I was thinking “??? Where are the pirates?”, went back to the tile and then :smack: oh, _privates_… I thought that too :smack: But this is just as swashbuckling 😉 In my old town, Puppetry of The Penis was banned from coming there. They’d planned their tour to come and everything. Stupid prudish mayor ☹ ---

Bwah-ha! That’s so cool! I inspired someone’s choice of username! And I’ve run out of exclamation points. If you’d chosen **Ossin** we’d have to have some sort of weird cyber-flirting affair thing. I’m glad you didn’t- I’m too old and tired. [Blantant continuing hijack) Have you read _Sunshine_ yet? ---

Actually, _Puppetry_ was in NYC for a while and, while they auditioned for new guys, they instantly disqualified any guy who showed he was…happy to be there. When asked if they ever got happy themselves onstage, they were shocked and insisted not. ---

When asked if they ever got happy themselves onstage, they were shocked and insisted not. Makes sense: It’s kinda difficult to tie a knot (or do other equally crazy stuff) into a pole. So from an artistic angle, fluffy would be better than rigid 😛 ---

My soul hurts just thinking about Puppetry of the Penis. I’ve promised my penis that I’ll never make it go through such disgusting and embarrassing shenanigans for me. BTW, I, too, read the thread title as “Weird, Disturbing, Unusual Talent involving Pirates”, and was quite disappointed. P.S. Is it really possible for women to smoke cigarettes with their “other mouth”? Would they live afterwards? ---
