Where Knowledge Junkies Get Their Fix
So far, so great.
Lots of fun connections, too, like handcuffed orange juice and O.J.’s helmet. A kangaroo scrotum pouch and a phallic rock to fit inside.
Dozens of other suggestions under the original post: What Will You Find For A T-Shirt?
We’ll be accepting submissions until noon tomorrow. The top prize is a free t-shirt of your choice; second place is a free back issue of the magazine. Picking these winners will be a challenge.
Also, if you don’t care to play and just want a shirt, you can simply exchange your money for one in our store.

Found an instant classic - Nun Chucks
item 290162725147
As advertised:
Sally Fields isn’t the only nun who can fly! Just load the 1″ tall, plastic nuns into the 5-3/4″ long plastic shooting device and pull the trigger to send a sister sailing. Great for working out your repressed Catholic school memories

Fossilized Tin Man Turds.
Item # 230171279175
They look like wadded up bits of aluminum foil. The price is now at $8.50, and there are actually three bids.

I bought my mother those! They’re really funny, and they do fly!
My mom went to a catholic school, and the head nun ended up marrying her father last year. She’s creeped out and not real thrilled, so I buy anything “nun” related that can give her a laugh.

Andrew, AYDS are real over the counter appetite suppressors. When I was a kid, I got into serious trouble with mom, as I gobbled them down thinking they were candy - very chocolate-like!
And frogandpig, you’ll have to let me know the hang-time on the nunchuks!!
