CREEPING FASCISM IN VIRGINIA

Now they want to take away a man's fundamental human right to put testicles on his trailer hitch.

(Visual here.) (Better one here.)

They even make blue ones for married guys. And they don't even blink at these things in Texas, where, of course, they're supposedly bigger. As the site says, they also make excellent paperweights.

I say castrate all those machos... hillbillies... rednecks... trucks. We need to do everything in our power to prevent those things from breeding.

[Meanie the Blue]

And while they're at it, so to speak, they may as well prohibit putting trailer hitches on testicles two too.

[Jeff Meyerson]

Bumper Nutz! Excellent.

Key line applicable to most (all?) State legislators: "I said, 'Sir, I'm going to be a laughingstock, but I'm going to do it,'" he said.

[Siouxie]

Annie, I love the brass balls!

[Annie Where-but-here]

Don't ya just want to knit a cute widdle ballcozy for them though?

Or is that just me?

[ScottMGS]

My daughter wants to go kick them whenever we see them.

[Meditrina]

Hanging your nuts on your truck for everyone to see could be an indication of um, size, or lack thereof. Just my take on it.

[fivver]

We need to be kind to Richmond, they are in mourning. Yesterday it was announced that in 2009 the Richmond Braves will become the Gwinnett Braves! So let's show some sympathy and caring. NEENER NEENER NEENER!

[Siouxie]

Annie, I kinda wanna do as Scott's daughter.

I need to have my kicking-b@lls boots though.

(Med, I totally agree)

[Jan Croz]

Check out the Funk Band on Bumper Nutz! LOL!

[Annie Where-but-here]

I agree with Med, too. I always saw them as a handy warning label - 'moron on board.' But I also always wanted to knit them cozies, just to take the edge off a little. Especially in the winter. Or maybe little mudflaps would be cute.....
Yes, dear, I'm switching to decaf now.

[Richard the Weasel-Hearted]

So, um, the "problem" is "rubber testicles", and the "solution" is a bill against "human genitalia". Is it just me, or is there a logical disconnect here?

I ask as a Virginia-ite already none-too-thrilled to be here...

[Larry Martell]

They don't even look like balls to me. They look like half of one of those nylon dog bones.

[Leetie (in VA)]

I'm sure the rednecks down the street from me have ordered a set of truckballs. On their rear window (pickup truck) it says, "Don't stroke it.. RAM IT."

Nice 'n' classy.

[Steve Haller]

Maybe the driver in question should go here...

[loudmouth]

Looks kinda gay (not that there's anyt...oh, hell yes there is with this) that guy lying under his truck fondling the big steel ones in his face.

[Annie Where-but-here]

Of course they'll pair this with a bill to get rid of the sexist mudflap bimbo silhouttes.

Not.

[Giddy]

Which totally reminds me of the female dump truck driver's mudflaps that my hubby and I saw together? I'll never forget the sexy, suggestive male posing silhouttes. THAT was funny.

[Steve Hansen]

Don't they still have "freedom of speech" in Virginia?
Those things are really no different from tasteless bumper stickers or mud flaps.

Ignore them and they will mostly go away, as all passing fads do. Try to suppress them, and they will be on the front page of the newspaper, and on the TV news, for years to come.

[marina_like_a_boatdock]

They won't go away because guys think they are so funny. If they could find a way to hang phoofs on the hitch guys would be so happy they'd EXPLODE.
