Alternate Headline: Dildos Hunted to Extinction: Women, Silicon Manufacturers Hardest Hit
I’ll let you imagine your own graphics for this one…
There are some stories you just can’t make up. Take a moment to read what CNN International host, Jonathan Mann had to say in response to the usual greenie tripe, via mediate.com:
“… Jonathan Mann undermined the point he was trying to make about climate change a bit when he offered up this particular example of previous ‘man-made extinctions:
We hunted the dildo into extinction.
Speaking to a guest about a study that says many animal species won’t have time to adapt to a rapidly warming planet, Mann said,
Now extinctions, I don’t have to tell you, have been a part of the history of the world for millennia. And man-made extinctions have even happened before.
I guess we hunted the dildo into extinction,’ he let slip, before slowly realizing his mistake.
As yes, I remember those halcyon days: Herds of the majestic dildo, roaming the broad fruited plains; dildos of every shape and size as far as the eye could see. Leaping, bounding, thrusting upward, ever upward… So colorful were they, and flexible too. Those were the days…

I note the common silicon/silicone confusion (or is it ironic?).
For what it’s worth, I once heard of a western pulp story that misguidedly gave its heroine the name “Dildo” (or was it ironic, and not expecting the readership of those days to spot the allusion?).
A bit of science trivia.
.
Of the nine most common chemical elements in the Earth’s crust, how many of those nine are found NATURALLY occurring in the human body and which one is not?
.
Eight of the nine most common chemical elements founds in the Earth’s crust are normally found in humans with the exception of silicon.
.
H, C, O, N, Na, Mg, Al, Fe (it’s been a while, correct me if i am wrong)
“Eight of the nine most common chemical elements founds in the Earth’s crust are normally found in humans with the exception of silicon.”
That’s because we were invented before it was possible to transistorize us.
Shortly after the Zimmerman verdict came out, Attorney Crump gets on the tv and says, “In the ANALS of history”……

As I laughed hysterically, I couldnt help but think of all the other words he mispronnounces (understanding that many words have more than one possible pronounciation in the english speaking world – my wife and i are separeated by a common laguage i will have you know – she was raised on the queen’s/king’s English), this one is one of my favorite crumpisms, it just semed so approopriate.
There is something wonderful about starting the day with a belly laugh. This post is hysterical….including Libby’s comment. I never realized that CNN is part of the Comedy Channel!
Dear Carol:
Only every day.
He was being totally accurate, IMO. I walked on Polk Street, and noted the sex shop located between Sacramento and Clay Streets had closed down.
Extinct the dildos are.
that response is hysterical, just like the article. However, here in Oz the sex shops and the dildo continues to thrive…. just like some of our other stone age mammals… such as the platypus.
Dear ItsMichaelNotMike:
I’m sure the Obama Administration will erect a turgid prosecution under the Endangered Sex Toys Act.
Mike, please this really is hysterical. Who would think that the dildo is on the verge of extinction….!!
Reblogged this on A world at war and commented:
I am glad that I had finished my drink of coffee prior to reading this article. Climate Change scaremongering has reached a new low but in this case the result is hilarious thanks to Mike McDaniel’s finely tuned sense of humour.
Now please tell me has anyone seen a dildo recently? ROFL
There is no doubt that my mind has been whirling as I think of the possible one-liners generated by the possibility that man has caused the dildo to go extinct. So…
If the dildo has gone missing perhaps our hapless reporter needs to take another look in the bedside drawer? A close second would be to check under the bed. Then look in the teenager’s bedroom….
If it is not just a case of the dildo has gone missing, then the “extinction” must have another explanation. I would suggest checking the batteries compartment. Dead batteries can create a real mess because they tend to leak, and that leakage could result in a deader than dead dildo….
Ooooh the possibilities are endless :)
