Those are nothing; Metatalk is the real challenge.
Well, that totally goes against the 'Wankers Only' sign above the door.

It would be more interesting as a gradient: the things that were most difficult to masturbate to, things that I just almost was able to get off on, unsuccessful attempts.

A comment on that page:
A squirrel I locked eyes with! Paul Harvey! I'm going to be laughing like a maniac at work tomorrow, and people are going to be all like, What are you laughing about? And I'm not going to be able to tell them.

The mystery of young Tadd's comment is obviously the true meat of jonson's post. Why won't he be able to tell them? Why??

Total fail as an article. I can list things I *haven't* masturbated to till the cows come home. Shit, I can list *people* I haven't masturbated to till the cows come home. Politicians alone would keep us here all week without even starting on the actors and actresses and all the other categories of famous people.
A list of shameful things he *had* masturbated to would be much more interesting.

If you can't yank a growler to Yan Can Cook, you ain't even trying. The whole PBS cooking line up is ripe with tossing material. America's Test Kitchen, NUUUTTTTT! Lidia, holy shit man she's older than God, rocking a splendid comb-over and built like R2D2. Let's do this thing!

If this guy can't get the white out on the damned Victoria's Secret Catalog, I feel deeply suspicious that he can be the true author of this article, likely having no hands nor frontal cortex. Or maybe he's over 40. I have no knowledge of old man penis rules, being a young fabulous piece.

This 'needing something to wank to' seems a major flaw in the male makeup, considering the amount of wanking ya'll do. What's wrong with imagination?

Of course, in reality, that's what would happen. When you find that those photos of Condoleeza Rice just aren't working for you, your mind will inevitably start wandering towards Ann Coulter -- yet again.

You do just the imagination about 50% of the time, but that usually only covers the first three of the day, for the rest you have to dig deep, it's more like a marathon than a sprint, you see, that's why the Victorians put doilies on the legs of grand pianos, there was an empire that needed building.
Although, alternately, many of us could be telling jokes and making fun of ourselves rather than actually having a real discussion, I guess we'll never know, sorry gotta go shake hands with the guv'ner.
