Penis-Americans, Sound Off!
Edited on Thu Dec-18-08 01:43 PM by dawgmom
OK, I have now officially seen the funniest thing ever on DU. In an argument on another forum about the Warren selection for the invocation, somebody called another person a "Penis-American" (intending it as a slur).

It had the opposite effect for me. It just made me laugh out loud. Everything just seems funnier if you put Penis in front of it. (Hey, wait...that's not exactly what I meant...oh, never mind.)

reminds me of the idea of putting "in bed" after everything to make it funnier...

Same idea, same result.

those other forums are crazy.

15. I once heard that if you suffer an injury
And complain far beyond what the injury warrants, you may suffer from 'pussitis'.

That's just what I heard.

16. Oh, right. Because women are known for their inability to endure pain.
Riiiiiight. Get back to me on that, right after you try to pass a bowling bowl out your ass.

17. No, thanks
I can't anyways but if I could I still wouldn't. My body's already suffered enough trauma from heavy drinking, smoking and bar fights.

23. I'm sure you didn't hear that from a woman.
I hears a story from a woman I worked with, anoug her husband's testicular cancer surgery. They cut one of the nasty things out, and the surgical wound in his scrotum got infected, leaking bloody pus and swelling enough to pop a few stitches. Her husband complained about the pain (and every male in the room was writhing as she talked about it). Of course, she ended with," Damn men are such babies."

Tahe 2 aspirin and soak it.

5. Samantha Bee referred to herself as a Vagina-American
I'm thinking they might be playing off that. ?

9. Could Bee
But Penis-American just sounds funnier.

And a day without penis is a like a day without sunshine. Or something.

Got penis?

(assuming that having penis in your life is a sought-after thing)

a "pale penis person"!

31. In my experience...
...not all pale people have pale penises. Penii? What is the plural of penis, and how often does one need to use the plural in everyday conversation?

Could be a euphremism for "what a dick!".

26. That sounds pretty funny
what exactly did the poster mean by a "Penis American"?

Someone that posesses a penis?

Someone that craves a penis?

Perhaps it's a way of calling someone a "dick"?

28. In the context it was used, it implied entitlement & lack of understanding
As in "easy for you to say, you male person you, with your sense of entitlement and insensitivity towards anyone without a penis."

40. Yup. It's the only reason I go there anymore
During the election, I would go there to browse for funny cartoons, etc. that were posted. Now, it's mainly to watch them turn on one another (even more than before) and to find gems like this. What a hoot. (Hey, where have you been? You've been missed.)
