Not important in the grand scheme of things & I never once “won” this prestigious accolade, harrumph… but haven’t seen it given in bloody ages.

I think it fell victim to Augie’s reduced hours.
Been wondering that myself but came to the same conclusion as @marinelife.
Yeah, that would be fair enough, she a busy lady that one.
Yep, that’s why. I miss it, too. :(
What a lovely feel this thread has, only a select few answered as expected, but wow…look at the experience on us fuckers!!
Generous portions of lurve all round & a perfectly reasonable explanation/outcome…small, but perfectly formed, bit like me :-)
@ucme You never told me you were small…..
@janbb Yeah, it sounded good in my head regardless of accuracy…hang on, you didn’t complain the other night…oh shit, what have I done…
Teeny weenie little Mister ucme. :p
Pachy loves to see questions about peanuts.
Hey look, we got all the balls in the world over here, Gisele, i’d make ya fuckin eyes water sugasweet & Pachy…i’m packin a trunk in my pants Dumbo :D
Lol. You sexy beast, you. :D
It was such a cool thread until the dirty penguin took it into the gutter & other low-lifes eagerly followed…why does smutty penis talk chase me in this way…why, why!?! :D
<————-Chuckles to herself.
@ucme Cuz. Askin’ for it.
Hmm, now there’s a fluther question…“Have you ever been followed by a penis?”
Think it belongs in meta :D
what if like, you’re walking out in the woods, then a giant penis comes out from behind you and starts floating after you? Man, that would be fucked up.
There’s wood in the woods & it’s cumming to get yew :-(
Freakin scary thought, bloody dicks just can’t get away from them not even when strolling through the woods…creepy willy in a raincoat… Jumps out… Now what would red riding hood do?
Oh my, what a big knob you have…
Red Riding Knob…porno fairy tales, is nothing fuckin sacred?
Pictures a ginger girl bouncing on a wolf’s knob who’s dressed in her grandma’s nightgown…all kinds of sick imagery right there :-(
That’s probably actual porn. I have a theory that you just can’t make up anything; no matter what kind of sick shit you come up with, somebody’s already made a porn movie about it.
One of the data points that esteemed 15th century witch-hunter Heinrich Kramer collected in his book of “empirical research,” Malleus Maleficarum, was an account of a witch who stole dicks and kept them alive in a birds’ nest in the woods.
…dude. that’s awesome
Hey I got a question, since you’re good with history. Does the Malleus Maleficarum still exist? I mean I think there’s one in some museum in England if I’m not mistaken, and it’s pretty much all fallen apart. But I mean like, is there some copy or is there documentation that preserved the original text? Could somebody read it somehow, if they wanted? Well, I guess I mean if you can read Latin, but maybe some translations were made? I was always curious as to what the hell exactly they put in that book.
Symby, you can absolutely read it if you want. And I know you want to ;)
You can find full English translations in print and online. I’ve taught it in class… Hopefully the first and last time I’ll ever talk about dicks with undergrads O_O
I don’t have time to check if this is a legit website, but it looks serious, and they apparently offer a download of the full text. They don’t claim to be scholars; they just transcribed it from a book, I guess. You can also buy the text from a book store: Malleus Maleficarum or The Hammer of Witches by Heinrich Kramer (sometimes Jacob Sprenger is listed as a co-author.)
Gotta go pass out so I can read 25 books when I wake up. Bye for now!
Kept dicks alive in a bird’s nest, must have liked a cockatoo…cock or two
I wonder if those cockatoos could talk?
Hang on did I read this coorwctly @bookish1 How would you keep a dick alive in a nest unless it was attached to a body?
@Arewethereyet : This was an anecdote collected by, or more likely, pulled out of the ass of, a 15th century German theologian who wanted to make a case for persecuting and killing ‘witches’. I’ve read the whole nauseating book and I am inclined to suspect he was a latent homosexual. In any case, it’s clear from reading the book that he profoundly hated and feared women. Read about the book here
By the way, this is the wildest Fluther derail I’ve ever been a part of, and I’m pretty proud…I hear talk about dicks in the woods, and this is the first thing that comes to mind. My brain is full of history…and sex.
I think this could qualify as one hell of a bizarre thread derail maybe even the question of the day!
@bookish1 Thanks for the info. I wasn’t aware you could actually read this today…although I should have figured that, really, its content was just underlying some guy’s angst at never getting laid. XD
I’ll definitely check it out, i always wanted to know what was written in there.
Yes thanks for the link @bookish1 very interesting and as @Symbeline said great to be able to read in modern times so readily available online
I don’t see it as being derailed at all, all threads evolve & develop, with seamless links that end up radically altering the flow of conversation.
Perfectly reasonable that we go from innuendo to actual historical facts about penis worship @janbb be proud, really, really proud :D
@ucme Troo dat. I got to learn two different things with this thread, plus I laughed a lot. It kicks ass.
@Symbeline I also learned many, many things, not least that an awesome hardcore french-canadian chick recognises my sexy beastiness, what a fantastic judge of character you are :-)
I call em like I see em, man. :D
@Symbeline: Yeah, I guess we could say Kramer is an example of how very badly nice guy syndrome can go wrong…
