Thanks to everyone for participating! This week's winner (because we were simply flabbergasted by it) is ... At first, I thought he was all Koi, Perched up on the starting board. My eyes started with his Broadband shoulders then passed over his Velvet Belly and rested on his Boxfish. I wondered aloud if his Speedos concealed a Fathead Sculpin or just a False Moray. And, whether or not he was a Topminnow or a Bottom Feeder. The guy next to me responded “That’s easy! All swimmers are Flagfish. You can tell what they’re into by their suit color. You know? Jackfish, Suckers, Nibblers Pufferfish, Groupers, Leatherjackets -sometimes even Scat and Golden Shiners. That guy right down there: hung like a Horsefish, but with one splash he’s a Crystal Eyed Catfish. Goes from a Warmouth to a Cuckoo Squeaker. The second one is a Grayling – that’s why he puts up with coach Hagfish. The one at the end is a Harelip Sucker – Ha! I won’t even go into that! But I know who you’re looking at, he’s an Angelfish and wouldn’t hurt a Sole. Thanks to rogmed for this week's winning caption. Submitted by on Fri, 2009-09-04 15:42. |

Toaster oven?
I may be wrong, but I
Ellen?
Wasn't that rather a joke on "Ellen"? I think in one of the episodes where Ellen comes out. No? Oh, I don't know actually.

Blame Ellen DeGeneres
In the coming out episode of her sitcom Ellen, a joke was made that whenever someone came out as gay/lesbian, the National Organisation of Gays and Lesbians would send you a toaster oven as a welcome to the brotherhood/sisterhood gift.
OK, it wasn't the greatest joke in the world, but it's been strong enough to survive a couple of generations of gays and lesbians wherever in the world they've seen the series.
I suppose like early Christians had the fish symbol as a secret way of recognising each other, gays and lesbians have the toaster oven.
Oh! So I was right!

Toaster oven joke around a long time
The toaster oven joke is that when you come out or when you "turn" someone gay you get a toaster oven sent to you from the universal (and mythological) Gay and Lesbian Headquarters (a queer version of Mount Olympus, Valhalla, etc). Once you've gotten enough you can turn your toaster ovens in for a pink cadillac. The joke originated from gay people in response to straight people mistakenly thinking you could actually recruit people to be gay or lesbian. That joke goes back a long ways, like the 50's. Ellen DeGeneres even referenced it in her coming out episode in the late 90's which made straight people more aware of the reference.

As part of its ongoing ethics probe, the PGA offers in evidence this photograph purporting to show Tinkerbell (also known as The "Green" Fairy) as she is caught in the act of removing Tiger Woods' ball from a mud trap and tossing it onto the fairway.
