Balls.


As I pulled out onto Highway 71 this morning, jamming out to various politically-charged songs picked specifically to get pumped up for election day, I suddenly came face-to-face with something I forgot existed: Truck Balls

What better novelty item to display your redneck male machismo than a swingin' plastic scrotum hanging off the hitch of your King Ranch Ford 350? Balls. Need a euphemism to describe an individual's gutsiness and bravery? Balls. An adjective to describe something totally awesome? Balls.

I am deeply disturbed by Truck Balls and the implications thereof. I propose we begin to manufacture Dangling Ovaries immediately.

I always use the expression "balls crazy," which goes to show it's not all positive...

How can you do dangling ovaries if ovaries don't dangle out of the body?

Rachel said...

Yeah, or "that tastes like balls"... that's another negative one.

But still, where's the ovary love? ;)

Rachel said...

They don't dangle out of the body, yes, but they are the female gonadal equivalent.

I was trying to make a little joke ;)

Kim said...

Haha, yeah I know you were kidding around.

But yeah man, I hate the plastic balls hanging off the truck. I think I'm gonna rip them off one day. Or something, because I just realized that if I did rip them off it would be invasion of private property. Dammit. lol.

I think maybe the female equivalent would be boobs in the grill of the car? Ew, that could be bad.

Well, if you look under your car, it sometimes can look like women bits?

that picture is really awesome.

I just really love that you used the word "gonadal."

Emma said...

Also, my ex-roommate always said "balls!" when she was frustrated.

I'm not sure whether gonadal is a real word.. but this is the internets, we can do whatever we want!
