Brickbat: Dirty Cowboy

The Annville-Cleona, Pennsylvania, school board removed the award-winning children's book The Dirty Cowboy from elementary school libraries after one parent complained. The book tells the story of a cowboy who takes a bath in a river then finds his dog, which no longer recognizes him, won't let him have his clothes back. The parent complained that the cowboy is depicted as being nude, though various objects always cover his genitals.

I've heard of the Cleveland Steamer, Space Docking, the Donkey Punch, and the Speckled Trout.

But I ain't never heard of the Dirty Cowboy.

On a related note, China's first female astronaut will be taking part in a crewed spacedocking probably next week.

[Whiterun Guard]

Well hopefully various objects will at least cover her genitals.

[Bardas Phocas]

Should I ask what a Chinese Astronaut is? All sideways and freefalling like?

[Groovus Maximus]

It involves exceptionally long fingernails, a hairy mole with the follicles braided, and a rice paddy. In either space or freefall.

[Groovus Maximus]

Oh, and it also includes a pregnant yak. Don't ask me how I know theses things.

[Whiterun Guard]

I think you're thinking of a Mongolian Hayride.

Is crewed spacedocking as filthy as it sounds?

[Groovus Maximus]

Only if done correctly. This helps increase exposure and successful multiple dockings.

[invisible furry hand]

Good Lord. How is it you're single?

[Groovus Maximus]

Just lucky I guess 🙁 That and I sleep about 4 hours a day and I'm a cover hog.

Points for the pun @ 7:24.

I'm squeezing my legs together so hard right now. I don't want to talk to you anywmore. =(

[Karl Hungus]

But I ain't never heard of the Dirty Cowboy.

It's like a vague cross between the Rusty Trombone and the Screaming Seagull.

I bet these parents think they're breaking the back of the gay agenda by banning this cowboy book.

Dirty Cowboy remains Unforgiven: Anyone that don't want to get clean better get on out of PA.

[TELLMOFF]

It was one parent. Authorities-this time a school board- love a complainer so that they can get the oppressive action that they are addicted to.

[Fist of Etiquette]

NUDITY EQUALS SEXUALITY. End of story.

[invisible furry hand]

Why, yes it does

[kibby]

It's the human version of Hedonism Bot!

[Suthenboy]

I cant tell you how many have said exactly that to me. Well, not exactly that, it was more like;

"Nekkid means sex, I don' care whut yew say."

[Entropy Void]

Suthen:

Of all people, you should know that below the Mason/Dixon:
Nekkid DOES mean sex;
Naked means just on either side of takin' a bath;
Nude means some kinda artsy-fartsy thing

Now, ya'll have a good day, ya hear?

[sarcasmic]

Yet any complaint over Brokeback Mountain would be likely be considered homophobic and result in some sort of sanctions against the parent and child.
