My friend Joel did an abstract painting of a pink, vaguely human form, posed in the crucifix postion.

It reminded me of a photograph, I had once seen, of a man who had been run over by a tank.

In his absence Keith and I christened the painting 'Pink Jesus'. After we'd had a few more drinks, it occured to us that 'Pink Jesus' was a brilliant alternate name for a penis, because it sums up how most men feel about their cocks.

When we told Joel the good news, he got really snotty and told us the title of the painting was 'Pink Herod.'


An old fashioned term for the vagina, that has thankfully fallen out of common use is Quim.

That word gives me the creeps for some reason.
