Funny, as usual. From poontang, right?

slash snapper split
1. poontang


Function: noun
Inflected Forms: plural - poontang; abbreviated - poon
Alternate Spellings: puntang
Etymology: Filipino (Ilokano dialect) putang (whore, fuck)
1: female genitalia
2: sexual intercourse

Since Spanish is spoke in the Filippines, I have to wonder if there is a connection to puto

Great noun. Heard it the first time in Apocalypse Now!

But I thought the "seven year itch" was some kind of VD after watching Full Metal Jacket. Now I know it's a film.

sev·en-year itch

noun
Definition:

inclination toward sexual infidelity: an inclination toward sexual infidelity, popularly believed to begin after seven years of marriage ( informal )


Enlighten me! What is "the seven year itch" really? How does it relate to Ho Chi Min? I don't get it as usual...

You got it. I was listening to some old comedy routines from the late 80s and one in particular mentioned the development of a drink for "old, retired astronauts." Obviously, the result was Prune Tang. "Studies show that once you try it, you can't get enough of it. And you won't share it with anybody!"

Ahhh, takes me back.

Prime Minister John W Howard was visiting a primary school and he visited one of the classes. They were in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher asked the Prime Minister if he would like to lead the discussion on the word "tragedy".

So the illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a "tragedy". 1 little boy stood up and offered: "If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field & a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a "tragedy." No," said Howard "that would be an accident." A little girl raised her hand: "If a school bus carrying fifty children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be "tragedy".

"I'm afraid not," explained the Prime Minister "that's what we would call great loss." The room went silent.

No other children volunteered. Howard searched the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a "tragedy"? Finally, at the back of the room, a small boy raised his hand... In a quiet voice he said: "If Air Force One carrying you and Mrs Howard was struck by a "friendly fire" missile & blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy."

"Fantastic!" exclaimed Howard. "That's right. And can you tell me why that would be tragedy? "Well," says the boy "it has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn't be a great loss and it probably wouldn't be a bloody accident either!"

probably all seen this one before, but here it is anyway

Bush In Hell

One day in the future, George Bush has a heart attack and dies. He of course immediately goes to hell, where the devil is waiting for him.

"I don't know what to do," says the devil. "You are on my list, but I have no room for you. You definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I've got some folks here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their place.

I'll even let YOU decide who leaves." Bush thought that sounded pretty good, so the devil opened the first room.

In it was Ronald Reagan and a large pool of water. He kept diving in and surfacing empty handed. Over and over and over. Such was his fate in hell. "No, George said. "I don't think so. I'm not a good swimmer and I don't think I could do that all day long."

The devil led him to the next room. In it was Richard Nixon with a sledge hammer and a room full of rocks. All he did was swing that hammer, time after time after time. "No, I've got this problem with my shoulder. I would be in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks all day," commented George.

The devil opened a third door. In it, Bush saw Bill Clinton, lying on the floor with his arms staked over his head, and his legs staked in a spread eagle pose. Bent over him was Monica Lewinsky, doing what she does best. Bush took this in disbelief and finally said, "Yea, I can handle this."

The devil smiled and said "OK, Monica, you're free to go."
