If kids knew how bawdy the Canterbury Tales are, those AP English classes would fill up immediately! It's totally worth learning middle English for.

Hey, Aristophanes built a career on fart jokes. Don't sell yourself short.

Desperation for anything interesting or potentially controversial to make the Today Show seem, however briefly, relevant? That would be my guess, anyway, but I haven't seen the Today Show in many a year. But then, who has?

"In other words, just because you haven't personally seen any uncalled-for nutshots, doesn't mean they don't happen. I've seen plenty of those, just no moose." —Me, two posts ago. But if I actually need to put it more clearly, here: Yes, I've actually seen this happen multiple times. No hyperbole necessary.

Well, considering "the thread" is incontrovertible research into the issue, I'm sure its data is unimpeachable, and in no way an unrepresentative sample of the world and all of human experience.

No, I said I've never seen a moose in person, but I have no reason to doubt their existence. You changed that to [nutshots]. In other words, just because you haven't personally seen any uncalled-for nutshots, doesn't mean they don't happen. I've seen plenty of those, just no moose. Lots of things exist that neither of…

I've never seen a moose in person, but I have no reason to doubt their existence (aside from their sheer immensity; they could have the world if they tried).

Why run away? "Have a good reason" is absolutely crucial advice. She detailed the pain and possible damage pretty well, so it needs to be said that nut-shotting a guy shouldn't be the response if he just makes you angry. In a life-or-death type situation, absolutely go for broke. A guy said a shitty thing or cut you…

I was worried too, but I think we can agree that this is still a pretty shitty thing to happen to someone.

I don't know if you're a man or a woman, but there's a distinct possibility we're soulmates. Go Team Imodium!

I can't speak for all guys, but I think I can speak for most of us when I say that women are far more bothered by pooping around a guy than guys are at having a woman poop around us. We know you do it, so go ahead if you need to. Just not on us, please. Except those of us who are into that, I guess, but ask first.

Have to agree. Love John Mulaney, hate the show. His stand up is funny, but the way they try to shoehorn the standup bits into the show's dialogue is just terrible. Please, don't do that. Comics want success, like anyone, but why oh why do they all think they need a shitty sitcom to get it?

Are you referring to Schwip Schwap?
