Dear heart, you know all the essential rhetorical devices were identified and named by the ancients. Thus the nonsensical frippery got up to by the latter-day charlatans that taught Yours Truly, such being the only kind of thing left for them to mint career capital from. Ne'ertheless I shall hunt more. Those old Greeks must have hung some moniker on the thing you identified.

The Jesse Ventura tie-in being that he is either a fallout-induced mutant or an extraterrestrial?

You say that as though you've already figured it out, and just like watching me in torment. But persevere I shall. You understand the invoice grows with each billable hour.

So, it is something like a chiasmus. But really not that at all.

Every boy has his price.

Other than Double Penetration...? Ah, La Parker! I think across various threads, these forums have already received most of her oeuvre from several of us. Merely search!

You just let me worry about the poetry around here. That clarification helps beyond saying. Tomorrow I'll dive back in. Tonight, too much like this... Lebensweisheitspielerei Weaker and weaker, the sunlight falls In the afternoon. The proud and the strong Have departed. Those that are left are the unaccomplished, The finally human, Natives of a dwindled sphere. Their indigence is an indigence That is an indigence of the light, A stellar pallor that hangs on the threads. Little by little, the poverty Of autumnal space becomes A look, a few words spoken. Each person completely touches us With what he is and as he is, In the stale grandeur of annihilation. Stevens

poopsterbate To simultaneously poop and masturbate. My friend Daniel, who is undoubtedly a chronic poopsterbater, coined this phrase. I heard Mark poopsterbating on the toilet last night.

fart knocker Reference to anal sex, basically a variant of "fudge packer." Usage hijacked and generalized by the Beavis and Butthead show in the 90s. Those fart knockers are outside the gay nightclub again having a smoke. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=fartknocker&defid=2622455

fartknocker A generic insulting noun, coined by Butthead of MTV's Beavis and Butthead. While they were watching the premier of GWAR's "Saddam a Go-Go" video, Beavis got in Butthead's line of view of the TV. Butthead shouted "Move it, fartknocker!" http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=fartknocker&defid=1257192

Ewww, indeed. I can envision some resemblance between the biologist and the biotum. P.S. My one guess so far at your damned rhetoric question is in the Stevens thread. But it ain't the right answer.

Thank you! Never heard that. Chuck Berry varies his lyrics from one performance to the next, in somewhat like manner.

It is amazing what Gulf coast dwellers know that we Atlantic coast denizens have no clue about.

A good squirt of charcoal lighter fluid is a lot more effective at exterminating a yellowjacket nest than multiple cans of expensive insecticide.
