Another highpoint in history...

CoasterMatt · 06-23-2006, 06:03 AM

June 23, 1993

In the middle of the night, Lorena Bobbitt severs her husband John's penis and drives off, casually discarding the organ in a farm field. Surgeons successfully reattach the penis, allowing John to enter the porn industry. The media devotes 1.3 million column-inches of type to the story as both Lorena and John gain celebrity status; consequently, their last name becomes a verb.

"I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be..."

John Bobbitt - phht. It would take more than a butcher knife to sever m....oh, never mind.

In honor of this poignant anniversary, I'll make sure to be extra special-nice to penises today.

Another part of MY vacabulary is "Joey Butafuco Pants". You all know what I am talking about, right?

You do know that this has nothing to do with Joey Butafuco, right?

Not Afraid · 06-23-2006, 02:17 PM

Of course, but they always seem to go together as symbols of stupidity in my brain.

No, I don't know what you're talking about. Of course, I somehow seemed to have mostly missed out on the drama of the Amy Fisher/Joey Butafuco and Bobbitt sagas.

I knew they were happening but I don't recall them being so big a deal as their lasting pop cultural influence indicates they were.

Oh, I know all to well! Please say you're referring to the baggy pseudo-parachute workout pants that generally came in a sassy print such as zebra stripes or neon squiggles and triangles and such. That's what "Buttafuoco pants" means to me.

Ugh.

You know what still astonishes me to this day? That not only did Joey land himself a mistress, but one that was willing to murder for him. Yes. For JOEY.

When I picture Joey sexually (and believe me, as a rule I don't, but you know, for the sake of this Thread reminding me & all) I picture a man who lasts no more then 2 minutes, who will never utter the words, "How can I please you, sweetheart?" and who is just all in all generally oily. Like you'd just slide right off of him. That is, after you were done having to "please him" for the 10th squillionth time and plucked a wig's worth of greasy curlies out of your teeth.

Oh, I'm going to luge. I'd rather picture the severed penis!
