So I've got this fabulous book....

[vulgarweed]

...how many life-changing moments start out like that, eh?

It's called The Bald-Headed Hermit & the Artichoke: An Erotic Thesaurus compiled by one A.D. Peterkin.

You think "cock" is too crass or over-used? How about "gristle-stick" or "plugtail?" (As you might imagine, the list of synonyms and slang for this item is several pages long).

So how does this sound for a challenge game? Every day or so (when I can be arsed to remember) I'll toss one out, and your challenge is to use it in a sentence.



Example, and today's term: team cream (an orgy or circle jerk)

"It's not the matches that'll wear you out, Harry," said Oliver, "it's the team cream in the locker room after we win."



OK, I'm off to a BBQ in a little bit. Go nuts!

Yes, and...vice versa is even more entertaining. After all, who's the ancient-lit geek here?

I have to concede this is true. But then, what else could a "jerking-iron" really be? (OK, I resorted to the Book again...)

A tool for making beef jerky? Or perhaps for making jerked beef. ;]

I recall a (possibly apocryphal) anecdote about a grand state banquet of world leaders, during which the wife of the French President was asked what her dearest desire was. Her reply, with a serene smile, was, "A penis for all the world!" After a shocked silence, her husband coughed and said, "My dear, that word is pronounced 'happiness' ..."
