In it we had an exchange about the OP title after he noted that he considered and rejected an alternative title using “Meat Colonoscopy” because he didn’t think people would get it. I thought people here would get it, and his reply was, “You don’t frequent political threads all that much, do you?”
Now, I was a little, er… thrown by that response. Are our political commentators such babes in the woods that they wouldn’t get it? Maybe one term just doesn’t come up as frequently in political debate as the other?
So I put it to you… which term is a better choice when discussing the possible implications of a Scooter Libby prison sentence?
I pretty sure I’d get it through context, if nothing else, and I like it better than “pound me in the ass”. Although really I prefer “sausage sigmoidectomy” myself.
The only way to improve (?) on this version is to substitute the ever-more-popular “aggressive” for “extreme” in the wording. As it stands, this wins the thread.
I know “federal pound me in the ass prison” is from Office Space. Is meat colonoscopy from a movie?
Micheal Bolton: We get caught laundering money, we’re not going to white-collar resort prison. No, no, no. We’re going to federal POUND ME IN THE ASS prison.
Samir: I don’t want to go to ANY prison!
