But, to conclude, I say and maintain, that of all torcheculs, arsewisps, bumfodders, tail-napkins, bunghole cleansers, and wipe-breeches, there is none in the world comparable to the neck of a goose, that is well downed, if you hold her head betwixt your legs. And believe me therein upon mine honour, for you will thereby feel in your nockhole a most wonderful pleasure, both in regard of the softness of the said down and of the temporate heat of the goose, which is easily communicated to the bum-gut and the rest the inwards, in so far as to come even to the regions of the heart and brains." (from Gargantua, 1534)

Incidentally, this post is not off-topic in "Religion". Rabelais started off as a Franciscan monk, but petitioned the pope (Clement VII) to be allowed to join the Benedictines instead.

Couldn't that be considered cruelty to animals?

Well, I think it would depend on the person.

My husband would get arrested on the spot.

But me? Since my shit doesn't stink, it really couldn't be considered cruelty.

Geez, you got me smiling on that one, Knotty. My mother used to take Senokot as a laxative. It made hers stink.

See, the thing is, you aren't THAT funny.

You try to hard. It has to come naturally.

No. You need to let me take you under my wing and teach you how to be really funny. Trying too hard is funny within itself. You will see this after subscribing to my firm guidance and gentle tutelage.

I have always heard that you can't teach what you don't know.
Right now America spends $700 billion every year on foreign oil. That's our money going overseas when it could be staying here. We have to stop this.
That's why I support the Pickens Plan. Check out the website at www.pickensplan.com. If you like what you see, please join me as a Pickens Plan supporter.
