Just a bit of trivia I stumbled across when trying to figure out if I posted that pic of the squirrels worshiping a humourously oversized and innuendo-laden acorn here or not (a page or 2 up as it turns out):
If you search this site for "butt plug," you get exactly 30 results.... make that 31 now.
Anyway, the reason I wanted to know if I posted that here was because I have come to the conclusion that, despite underwhelming response to that picture (given the known proclivities of members here) that made me feel as if maybe I had read into it a bit much, I am not crazy, or at least not the only one. Every night this last month when I'm out back smoking and someone passes by with a friend I hear them notice the statue, murmur murmur murmur and then hearty laughter. I am now convinced this was intentionally subversive art and I applaud the genius of the artist - not only did he squeak this thing by City Council (our Councillor is an old progressive; she knows what a butt plug looks like) but he has managed to not offend anyone in the neighbourhood by carefully designing the thing with just the right amount of plausible denyability (and frankly, nobody who would be offended would mention it because it includes having to admit familiarity with not just the existence, but also specific shape, of a butt plug).
