so i was just at adfreak and saw this post about the turkey testicle festival. apparently, townspeople were going all maude flanders and saying the word "testicle" was inappropriate for children to see. really. since when did testicle start getting the same treatment as, oh, let's say pussy, cum dumpster, cockwhore, dick dick dick, rimjob, titties, etc.
it reminds me of when i worked at the school paper at UT-Brownsville and i wrote a review for one of the best worst movies ever, leprechaun 4: in space. i mentioned in the review that at one point the leprechaun bursts from a man's penis while he's urinating. and that's exactly how i said it. all very proper and no slang. our newspaper adviser (who's about the biggest prude i'll ever meet, unless i ever make it to the amish country) made me change it to something like "the leprechaun bursts from a lower body part of a man while he's making a bodily function", which took something already cleam and made it clinically cleaner and very vague. her excuse was that she thought "penis" and "urinating" were "harsh words", or something to that effect. yeah, i wanted to slap her, too. maybe she'd have felt differently if she'd been getting some good deep dickin'.
so, yeah. that's all.
