Okay - now I worked constructuion for almost 10 years, I grew up with a brother and his friends in an upstate area of NY where "heathen" is a compliment and the term TOOTH brush was invented LOL!. In general I was always a tom boy. I can hold my own be it a bar or poker game and my husband in our earlier years has on occassion compared my mouth to that of a long shoreman (although I am very tame now that I have a child). I am pro 'woman's lib" per say - I believe in fair treatment but I believe that we truly are created different and each sex can do certain things better than the other, My favorite TV show is Sex in the City and not much offends me, BUT . . . Who ever invented or thought that it was even remotely amusing or attractive or WHATEVER to create a plastic scrotum and hang it from the back of one's vehicle hitch - PLEEEEASE!

So should all soccer moms paste some boobs on their back window - I mean please!

The first time I saw it I was perplexed - I knew what it looked like but no one would possibly do that. BTW they happened to be blue LOL! I was truly apalled, when I realized what it was. seriously - I can almost chuckle at the peeing guy, but THIS. Why do men feel the need to falunt this stuff in the face of all society ????UUUGGHH

because they are men. my husband gets laughing over those stupid things and i just dont get it... i figure there are things they dont get about us and that is CERTAINLY one thing i dont get about them!!

OK, that had me pissing my pants. If I had a hitch (and I don't b/c I traded the Jeep for a minivan so everyone could have a seat) then I would SOOO get one of those. And certainly make sure it was blue. And maybe even...oh, I won't go there. That is so hilarious, though. What do they call them, "Truck Nuts?"

Haha, I googled truck nuts and yes, that's what they call them!
Answered my own question there didn't I?

lol you are nuts! though, watching my hubby hysterical over them does make me laugh so maybe they are worth it? i just can't imagine sitting there going 'you know what this truck needs? this here truck needs some balls!'

so funny...

Okay - as apalled as I was by them, sharing this with someone of the same sex sheds a whole new light on it . . . truck balls - really?! . . .LOL!

I am inventing MiniVan Boobs and my company name Prissy Parts!

Thanks for the laugh break! LOL!

Sign me up for some minivan boobs!

My little sister's boyfriend had truck nuts on his POS Grand Am. It really says a lot about him.

Haha, you know, I'm not sure I want to have anything sagging off the minivan! Unless they were cute and perky...or vary flat - fried eggs on the bumper!

Okay - now I am actually starting to enjoy these things!

And yes they really DO say a lot - after you see the 'truck nuts' take a look at the driver - and yep, that explains it!

This is the best laugh I have had - and to think I was appalled by this, goes to show it's all in the perspective!

Hey Mandy - I was thinking perhaps a Jane Russell tribute - torpedo style

Ok, I GOT to add this to the mix. Our General Assembly has just started its annual session AND this has come up. The following is from the Jan. 16 edition of the Richmond Times-Dispatch:

Bill would outlaw bullish auto ornaments

Wednesday, Jan 16, 2008 - 12:09 AM

The latest car ornament has Del. Lionell Spruill Sr., D-Chesapeake, seeing red. And that's no bull.

At the request of a constituent, Spruill has introduced a bill that would ban the display of ornaments that resemble bull testicles.

It seems some lads are hanging the rubber ornaments, which resemble male genitalia, from their trailer hitches.

Spruill's bill would make displaying the ornaments a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $250.

In an interview, Spruill said he realized he risks making himself a laughingstock. He said he laughed when a constituent brought up the naughty attachment last week.

But then he thought about his 5-year-old granddaughter and how he would respond if she asked him what that was swinging from the trailer hitch.

He has three granddaughters and doesn't want them to be embarrassed, he said.

The ornaments are being sold over the Internet at $24.95 for a rubber model. A brass set costs $49.95." -- Tyler Whitley

LMAO. Over and over and over!

Hey, we might be staid and conservative (at least some are), but we're not without a sense of humor. A couple of years ago, one of the members of the Assembly introduced a bill re: "droopy drawers", aka the baggy pants that a lot of kids wear that are about to fall off their behinds. Personally, I don't understand HOW they walk in the things and I really don't feel like looking at somebody's boxers or tighty whities (then again......nope, better not go there....<smack!>

Anyway, that year, the AP picked up on that story and the whole Assembly was the butt (no pun intended, ladies) of a LOT of jokes nationwide.

You know, I actually saw someone with some of these "Truck Nuts" on their trailer hitch, and all I could do was stare in shock. I am no prude, but I didn't find it very funny...but, for my hubbie? oh ya, funny.
