    I learned the term from a dirty limerick in a sci-fi anthology about dinosaurs that I picked up in middle school at a school library book sale. It was told by a telepathic tree which was trying to convince a guy to jack off into a condom and shove an acorn in it so it could reproduce, as that’s how it had been created. It was weird.

      I’ve read this comment four times and I still cannot believe all these words exist in this order.

      It’s not that I doubt you – far from it – but you have to admit, when you say it out loud does it sound real?
