  • The name/s Adolf/Adolphe are still in use in German and French former colonies in Africa, and WW2 wasn’t that big of a deal in a lot of the continent. A lot of them had other shit going on, still do.

    The internet and easy-to-access translators are more common now, leading to a further decline in the name, but in Namibia in the 1960’s? Totally understandable someone would hear/see the name Adolf Hitler without context, assume a strong German name would help their kid get by in German-Occupied Namibia, and leave it at that. Looks like it worked.

    I had a one night stand where the guy warned me he had only one ball. My immediate (in my head) reaction was I would not have noticed.

    They shift around on their own and sometimes one or both hide for some reason, and honestly I respect the hell out of such a chaotic organ, but they are purely unreliable. Just imagine going through life thinking testicles are stagnant and neat, two nuts in a skin sack, only to find out half the population has these roving jizz pebbles constantly on the move. Our word for ‘planet’ comes from the greek word for ‘wanderer,’ and so should testicles have been named. They wander the groin as the trepidation of the spheres rolls planets across our skies. Never still.

    So I guess they’re okay. He didn’t want me to touch his ball anyway.

    I love these because it give us a glimpse into oldschool metaphors that were so, so obvious at the time. Like of course you’re going to slap down some mussels on that hell talk because it’s an unclean abomination.

    And of course you’re gonna give a pregnant women a pomegranate, and make sure jesus has a pelican. Why wouldn’t jesus be hanging with a pelican? If not, at least make sure he’s holding a fish and there’s a shepherd in there somewhere.

    The illuminaries were memelord shitposters.
