His firends made fun of him saying that what the characters really mean is:
"I suck c*ck"


BTW - having had the runs and seeing how things spread in water I belive it is real. Again - sphincter control is an essential skill these days.

All this poop talk reminds me of a story someone posted here Waaaaaaaaay back when everyone was still waiting for there cars. I think the person went to a chili house and had this embarrassing, but hilarious chain of events happen.

Any old timers remember that?

in the video it looks like the girl reaches under her butt right before the cloud forms... which makes me suspicious it was fake but not cgi

another reason I am calling it fake is because the jets were off... who gets in a hot tub without the jets on, they did it just so you could see a brown cloud... imagine, if you will(or dont, if you are eating) what would happen if the scenario played out with the bubble jets on

This is true. And like ourselves, most may not know what the words mean.

I used to travel on occasion to Tokyo. On one trip I ran into a wedding party reception at the hotel. On the elevator I couldn't help but notice that one of the local guests attending the reception was wearing a tee-shirt with English on it: "ORGASM"

Aside from the shirt, he looked rather conservative. I doubt if he knew what it meant. It probably was a band name. Certainly not appropriate to wear to a wedding reception with the respective families present.

Dont have the pic, but market research fail:


Parents Angry Over Disney's 'Dive In' Underwear for Young Girls
Thursday, August 14, 2008


“High School Musical” underwear for young girls have sparked outrage — because they have the words “Dive in” on them.

A British woman bought a packet of five pairs, with a “Disney-approved” design promoting the hit movie, for her seven-year-old granddaughter.

“When she put them on, myself and my daughter thought, ‘Oh my goodness.’ It is inappropriate because it is sexually suggestive,” Sue Ralph, a 57-year-old civil servant, said. “You just never know who could see that and think it was a bit too enticing for a young child to be wearing.”

Sue is demanding the $7.50 packs are removed from her local Asda supermarket in Broadstairs, Kent, where she bought them.

The underwear has also angered the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, a British children’s charity.

NSPCC said: “This is part of a worrying trend of inappropriate clothing marketed at young children.”

So the parents' minds are in the gutter, and the kids have to suffer? Parenting fail...

I really don't know how this didn't make it on here yet. Four Lotuses pulled over by NJ state po-po'. The Fourth one, belonging to mrluky, is not pictured.

See, I dont believe the whole story was covered here. I am assuming that these were designed for kids that intend to go swimming, thus the "dive in". I understand how it sounds but still, I hate when you dont get the whole story.
