Whenever someone implies that history is boring, I bring up Napoleon's penis. More from those perverts at NPR. Make your own "bring up" joke.

  • "It's sort of a symbol to me of everything that's interesting about history," Perrottet says. "It sort of combines love and death and sex and tragedy and farce all in this one story." I think I love this man. This is indeed what history is all about. He was an attending urologist to Nazi prisoners at the Nuremberg trials Were there a lot of urinary problems among the officers of the Reich? Or were they just a bunch of pricks?
  • When my dog is bored he brings up lunch.
  • Kevvin: thank you for your input, but I'm not sure what you intended to say. Your dog couldn't have read the post,so you must be talking about a more general problem in your household. If your dog is bored, perhaps you should take him out for a walk for a couple of hours every day. It would probably do both of you good.
  • Path brings up a good point...
  • Was le petit caporal all that was purloined? Or will someone else be bringing up the rear?
  • When I've got nothing else to do, I bring up my children.
  • Since you bring up the subject of detached body parts of world historical figures, let's not forget Galileo's finger.
  • I for got to add: No-pole-eon.
  • I heard he lost it in the 'loo.
  • Was it up to Code?
  • A baby's finger? Come on, I knew the guy was short, but... let's hope for his sake that he was just in the pool, or something.
  • Also, I am amused by the finger. Galileo has been flipping the bird to everyone for centuries. I think he might have appreciated the joke.
  • I expect he brought it up too, plenty of times, with cojones outsized.
  • So, I guess it wasn't a giant, black and tall as Rouen's steeple?
  • And whenever a work meeting or blind date gets slow and boring, I always bring out the story of Rasputin's penis.
  • Apparently the thing being displayed as Rasputin's cock is really a sea cucumber.
  • Aren't they all? Wait, what'd I say?
  • Augustine, not being a penis aficionado, accepted Bonham's Penis Expert's conclusion that it was a sea cucumber. I want that guy's business card. Calling TUM...
  • *waits with gleeful anticipation*
  • *looks at Google's image results for "sea cucumber", looks in pants, shrugs*
  • I think I remember the Bonham's Penis Expert's radio jingle. My name is John Wellington Wickes; I'm a dealer in danglers and dicks, In whangers and woodies, And gentlemen's goodies, In packages, peepees and pricks. And if anyone anything wants, I'll find it in somebody's pants. I've even the todger Of that famous codger, The Emp'ror Napoleon of France!
  • I love you so much.
  • when mct and hbs meetup with tum, is there room for some rtd tlc?
  • Now that's an expert I'd trust!
  • *hugs TUM*
  • Awwww!
