OK, I would consider myself to be a person who knows a thing or two about sex but I read that term in a book and although I have an idea as to what it is, I am really not sure?

We are not talking food here ladies and gentlemen…

A woman between two men, getting simultaneously penetrated anally and vaginally is my guess. I don’t know if that’s the same thing **Casey1505** had in mind or not–while watching porn, I’ve seen two penises shoved into one anus before, as well.

You have to insert the sandwich manually. It’s basically a process of reverse digestion.

But then you end up shitting out your mouth, if _South Park_ is correct. And it always is.

Not quite what I had in mind. I was thinking it was 3 guys, spooned, I guess, one getting, the one behind him giving and getting, and the guy behind him giving. I guess to be polite, the guy in the way back spot gould give the first guy a hand job if he wanted to be nice…

I am not gay ([seinfeld] not that there’s anything wrong with it… [/seinfeld]), nor do I watch gay porn, so this is just a guess.

Now those I’m familiar with, though with a different name I cannot pronounce–there was a hole-in-the-wall restaurant run by a Greek family in my home town. You can now buy fake pre-made ones at, of all places, the Wal-Mart Supercenter. Thanks to this thread, I will probably never look at those Greek sandwhiches the same way again. I will, however, probably eat them.

One of those lines that really hit you on the first quick reading.

_Why would I want a Gyro made **with spit**?_

Not “made with spit.” Made “with **a** spit.” It is spit roasted.

A spit being a metal bar. You don’t want those crummy gyros that are just frozen, prepackaged slices. For the true gyro, you want one fresh off the spit.

No, I looked up “daisy chain”, and it turns out it’s a ring of people performing oral sex on each other-ideally, it should lead to the last person going down on the first person.

Or something.

Kind of like one big massive 69.
