CDC has dramatically underutilized the fact that COVID attacks men’s penises and can cause erectile dysfunction.

I seriously think messaging on this would improve vax rates: an image of a wet noodle next to a picture of someone getting the shot and the words “You Choose.”

breathing through their penises?

I haven't done that since I was a teenager. I used to think with my penis, too, but I stopped doing that when I was a teenager as well. Some guys think with them until the day they die.

COVID of the penis. That's a new one. I'll have to remember that for some right-wing acquaintances of mine. That'll scare the bejeezus out of them.

That's why some people end up losing fingers, toes, even entire limbs. Blood clots in the penis would be no bueno.

I am thinking the numbers may be a lot bigger. On the side of those who are likely to be unmasked, a whole lot bigger.
We can expect them to start buying a lot more and and a lot larger guns soon. Large truck sales are going to skyrocket.
