BaconCat, that is truly a work of genius.
Yay Conbon! Though I too missed the joke, and I often giggle at the most innocuous of innuendos. Good work!

Congrats all!

I cannot believe I missed a reference to butt fucking. I don't know if that signals personal growth, or some sort of spiritual atrophy.

@Conbon: Your diligence to the craft is nothing less than astounding, sweetheart.

If Gawker were working properly, I would link to a comment I just made in the Glaring Omissions thread, but since it hasn't shown up yet, just know that your hard work was my inspiration!

DorothyMantooth — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 17:34:09 EDT

@collegecallgirl: The only thing I can figure is "BF Town," where "BF" is... Best Friend? Boy Friend? Butter Fish?

But Conbon usually acquits himself quite well in these matters, so I've decided to give him the benefit of the doubt and now find "Boy Friend Town" to be hilarious.

As warranted, another week in the loser's bracket for me. On the plus side, I'm getting pretty comfortable there.
