uberreinigerI cannot get this guy's bumper sticker out of my mind.
"I'd rather be cummin' than strokin'?" There is not really any level on which that statement even makes sense. Now perhaps his method of strokin' differs from mine - and I'll be the first to admit that the Kaplansky Overhand Method is not for everyone - but generally speaking the two actions are not and should not be mutually exclusive!
But the last thing I want is to be uncharitable. I am willing to consider that this poor deluded fellow's non-progressive views on strokin' may not be entirely his fault. Let us travel back twenty years to a scene that might have been in a trailer park that once was...
FATHER: Boy, git over here! *chugs beer* BRAAAP! Alright boy, now tell yer old man what it's gonna be. Do you wanna be cummin' or do you wanna be strokin'?
SON: I... I wanna be strokin', papa.
FATHER: WHAT? No son o' mine is gonna be a namby-pamby, wishy-washy stroker! You got that?
SON: B-but papa...
FATHER: NO BUTS! Now you listen and you listen good! If you ain't cummin' then you ain't nothin'! Got it?
SON: Yes papa...
FATHER: Good! Now carry the rest o' that Dimetapp out to the shed. Yer helpin' me cook meth tonight!
Gives you pause, doesn't it? The next time you shake your head in bafflement at the bumper sticker of a man who says he'd rather be cummin' than strokin' take a moment and think "there but for the grace, go I..."
