sorry if this is not safe for work, but I never promised you a rose garden

I'd like to thank comediennes Carolyn and Lianne for throwing me a bridal shower/bachelorette function at Pete's, involving a prodigious quantity of snack foods and a cake with chocolate mousse frosting, encircled by chocolate-filled cream puffs!

I also received wedding-themed comic book porn (hi Mint!), as so:


I really like the review that some guy wrote of this book on Amazon. It specifies that:
"There are exactly 37 well-drawn detailed drawings of women inside the book. Obviously enough, all the pictures have some connection to weddings, just married women, or just about to be married women. The pictures range from somewhat tame (I guess the tamest one in this collection would involve a woman kissing the bride) to somewhat extreme (involving bondage in one form or another, humiliation, getting caught in action, whipping). The women are brides, guests, in-laws, bridesmaids, and the maid of honor. The men, if there is a man in the picture, is shown shocked/surprised at the action, is being "thanked" by the bride, is walking away happy, is a priest, or is being distracted. Most of the action occurs outdoors or in some form of church or hotel (like the picture of the surprise guest on the honey-moon), but some of the action does occur in-doors...."
What kind of people want to buy wedding-themed graphic novel porn -- but only if all the action occurs outdoors? Or maybe such buyers would think that merely thirty-four "well-drawn detailed drawings of women inside the book" would not be enough! How uptight can a porn buyer be?

wow! explicit illustrations of barely married women and already deemeded 'house'wife! I've always wondered what that term actually meant, now I know!

Isn't your wedding day supposed to be the happiest day of your life?... the woman on the front cover looks as though her pet cockroach just passed away. I'm betting that the wedding guests were also expecting dwarfs to turn up at the reception.

You are welcome - but you linked Lianne twice! Hahaha!

As for the book - I'd say the men in it are getting more than a Thank You. The women are getting a mouthful - and one woman was getting a mouthful AND an earful! Ouch.

Hi!
I suppose the people on amazon who care about those things are the same kind of people who come into the comic book store and buy protective bags and backboards for their porn.

Is XXX Spunky Knights really going to go up in value someday?

Do they want to be able to whack to it in pristine condition 20 years from now?

I don't know.
