Two Things That Go Together Well

Olivia Munn and gyration.


Simple enough.

Nice when "exercise equipment" provides this kind of workout. Even better when someone as attractive as Ms. Munn is willing to be filmed using it.

I Miss the Old Catalogs

JC Penney, Dillards, Mervyn's, and Sears catalogs were a lot more unfiltered back in the 80's. Some pages were precursors to the Victoria's Secret catalog, probably without meaning to be so. The selection below from a 1980 JC Penney catalog is relatively innocent, but I'm glad someone thought "Squeeze Play" would be perfect for a night shirt.



Somehow, this photo also reminds me of the Slumber Party Massacre II movie poster. Could it be from the same photographer. Probably not. Maybe that's just me. My mind goes that way. Sorry.

Parts and Tools (Naughty!)

This actually comes from another I place write. Guess I been on the lookout for unintentional porn longer than I thought. Back in 2006, I was helping proof a machine parts catalog. The excrutiating dullness of the work made my mind wander to almost anything. After the puns on machine parts were exhausted and I'd listened to the same old time radio episodes three times each, I found amusement in the actual work I was supposed to be doing. It's all Beavis & Butthead, but hey, proofing five hundred pages of screws, nuts and bolts shifted my mind that way.

The first to catch my eye were the ACME Threaded Rod Lubricants. Sounds porno, especially as it's listed next to the Threaded Studs and Acrylic Extruded Balls. These parts are not the names of schlong-endowed male porn stars (although I don't think Threaded Rod is currently taken), these are industrial parts that keep our American machines running. After checking the spelling of Shaft Adapters (it's not Adaptors), I got to thinking that any Threaded Stud certainly wouldn't need any Shaft adaptation.

Next up was the section with Nipple Wrenches. These are actual industrial tools. The final winner of the day were the Prick Punches. My mind is doomed to filth, but it has helped get me through the day more than once. This was probably the only secret perk that proofreading has. Unless one is proofing for Playboy, I suppose, but that wouldn't carry the humor of Extruded Balls.

Watch It With the Pointy Thing!

This comes courtesy of the Mego Museum, a rather impressive collection of old-time toys:



I'm assuming that this posing is supposed to be Wonder Woman and "Nubia" engaging in combat. Looks like Wonder Woman's about to become a real amazon (you know...how the Greek translation of "a-mazos" means "without breast" and how there's the tradition that Amazons cut off one boob to...oh hell, just read the damned Etymology section of the friggin Wikipedia article). Actually, the pose is rather open to interpretation. Could be that Wonder Woman is opening her arms to embrace the glittery Diana Ross lookalike? You decide, but what's with the sword placement?

Speaking of which, how many of us would've been happy to have Wonder Woman in our pocket?



Anyway, the Megomuseum website has plenty of things to see. If you were born between 1970 and 1975, you'll certainly appreciate the kids' outfits on the front page.

In the meantime, as a blog-to-blog plug to neatorama.com, enjoy girls bathing at the KFC.
