the great tail debate

[Nunchucker]

Get this, get this! *fans herself with her hand* It took her 3 issues before she realised what they were rrrrrrrrrrrofl :rolling: :lol:

[Machias Banshee]

I never looked....they Really have them?

Wow, I SHOULD get my own copies...

[azure turtle]

Doctor Doctor! I keep seeing turtle penises! :rolling:
LOL!! I just got my issue yesterday, and I couldn't stop laughing at that letter! Hoo boy... That was great. I'm still snickering as I type this. :lol:

[Machias Banshee]

Heee.. I was lauging at that letter too, and Laird's blunt response to it. He also had a good point about that crapfest letter too. :P

what exactly WAS his response?

[HorseTechie]

*snigger* That was funny indeed. As if those gnad Viagra spam mails didn't make me ROTFL with "HorseTurtle, enlarge your penis safely and naturally", only to be followed two emails later about breast enlargement. Man, the mental pictures I got of a hermaphrodite mutant turtle.

*clears throat, makes note to move this thread to Gen Dis after this*

Okay, this is what Laird simply said:
"Although the Turtles got their tails clipped when they entered the world of mass merchandising, since we created the TMNT back in 1983, I have always drawn the Turtles with tails in our comics. That's not going to change. If you choose to interpret the tails we draw as penises, I can only say that is your issue [problem]."

[Machias Banshee]

As long as they didnt get anything else snipped, they'll be fine... :snigger:

[HorseTechie]

*beats head against keyboard* I did it again.... nmadnmadnmad... I forgot to select WHERE this thread was splitting too.

It's SUPPOSED to go into the Gen Dis area. *sai* Thanks...

[azure turtle]

LOL!!! Gee HT, looks like I gotta move another thread. :razz: Ah well. One more cookie won't hurt.
*gives HT another mango cookie for her efforts*

Y'know, I can't stop laughing whenever I think about that letter. Heh heh heh...

I've received the same spam that you've gotten, HT, and I can't stand it. Yahoo catches most of the spam in my bulk folder, but some of it still ends up in my inbox. Stupid junk e-mail...

[Skeletoncrew]

That letter was CLASSIC! What sort of comic did she think she was reading anyway? :wink:

I haven't gotten any "enlargement" spam lately, just celebrity porn offers.

[Machias Banshee]

stupid albion ads....I'm considering changing my email so i DONT have to deal with thwe spam all the time...

[Skeletoncrew]

I'm sure Roger will start getting spam. Its his e-mail address up on Ossifiles. Spamming a plastic skeleton is an amusing concept. (At least to me.) Of course, I'm the one who checks his mail.

[Machias Banshee]

I dont think a skeleton would need an ENLARGEMENT ad....

[Skeletoncrew]

His bones are plenty big as it is! Speaking as the one who hauls his boney butt around, I don't want him any larger.

[Machias Banshee]

I lOVE the pix on your website, they're hilarious :D I could see the looks on some of the other driver's faces when they see a skeleton in a hawaiian shirt drive by... :lol:

[Skeletoncrew]

Oddly enough very few people seem to have noticed us while I was driving. There was only one instance where I can say for sure that someone saw him. A car passed me and the passenger turned around and flashed us a big grin. People only really noticed him in the car when I was stopped places. Only one person came over to talk to us, and that was at the scenic viewpoint. I did enjoy sitting so I could see the car while I ate, and watch people looking a him.

[azure turtle]

LOL!! I love the new pics, SC! Roger looks rather happy with his road trip. :D

[Kameko]

Odd bit of info I found while surfing the net. This is from the FAQ page of a turtle farm.

Q: How do you tell the male turtles from the females?
A: The male turtles all have much longer tails than the females.


...interesting... :goofygri:

[Kali]

I knew that. There's also the shape of the plastron, but that has nothing to do with the discussion.

[Kameko]

:P Weird conversation, this is.

[Cjd3458]

I heard of that one before. :D

[Skeletoncrew]

I've also read that male turtles like to sit in their water dishes and wave their penises around. This conjures up amusing possible scenes for the TMNT and a hot tub.

*(your favorite Turtle) relaxing in hot tub by himself, eyes closed. Someone of the female persuasion walks up to tub, looks in, * "Well I was going to ask you if you'd like some company; but maybe you'd rather be alone right now." *Turtle jumps out of skin and begins apologizing.*

Or sumpthin' like that.

*almost dies laughing*
LOL!!! :lol: I remember Mica posting somewhere on the forums that her turtle did that once. I just think it's so funny...
*snicker*

[Machias Banshee]

*Makes mental note not to sit TOO closely to the guys when using the hot tub*

:o Yeah, or maybe just stay out of the hot tub altogether...
