Is a BtD warning even necessary with that thread title?

Anyway, many of us will be busy preventing GC from skipping town to catch the opening, and this only seems to be running until early December, but boy does this exhibit look awesome:

If I ever meet GusGus again I'll be sure to sidle up to her and whisper "So, Kevy tells me your vagina looks like a clown in a gas mask. Is that true?"

I'm not interested if she would be phased, just whether it is true. Because that picture looks like no vagina I've ever seen, though this is an admittedly statistically insignificant sampling.

Why would I check myself? I have no vagina (though as mentioned on MousePad I am considering installation of a uterus).

Also, presumably she would know. I'd hope that if her vagina looks like a clown in a gas mask that you've mentioned this to her. I'm sure there'd be money in it (having a clow-with-gas-mask vagina, that is, not money in the vagina).

This thread is funny. Unlike clowns which are a bit creepy.

I wonder if those of you that are totally icked out by clowns - do you feel the same way about Blue Man Group?

Not generally. Although I wouldn't want to sleep with one.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back, a zillion years ago, my Sunday School did a clowns for Christ thing. White makeup, the whole thing.

I like the derail. :) Though I don't think the gas-mask clown looks like a vagina. I do have a decent sampling in memory for comparison...

Blue Man Group is creepier to me than any clown could ever be, including the gas mask clown, which does not look like a vagina.

The Blue Man Group will always be connected to Arrested Development in my mind.

I prefer vaginas that people eat. Particularly when I am the person.

Maybe he meant she wouldn't be "phased" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Q5EXhJzdec). :D
