I thought my hand gesture was a chef's kiss for such a confluence of events. Not sure what you're on about.

My first thought was ".... Again? They need some better contraceptives" but no, it's the same one... A shame, that would open the door for so many jokes.

You think that's big, you should see the size of it under the water.

I mean, who names a bay in Dildo county Conception Bay (or vice versa)? The iceberg is just the tip!

And it still hasn't melted? Checkmate, environmental lobby

[-] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 19 points 1 month ago

Alas, the iceberg lacked staying power: Pretty photographed the 30-foot (9.1 meter) phallic structure on Thursday, April 27. It collapsed the next day.

It's old, but... I'll allow it.
