Someone had an interesting "on this day"

It's old, but... I'll allow it.

Also...

y'all hear about the dick-berg in dildo??

[–] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 8 points 1 week ago (6 children)

A penis-shaped iceberg floated by the town of Dildo, Canada, which isn't too far from the city of Spread Eagle and the town of Placentia. (Image credit: Ken Pretty)

It can't be.

Alas, the iceberg lacked staying power: Pretty photographed the 30-foot (9.1 meter) phallic structure on Thursday, April 27. It collapsed the next day.

Hate it when that happens.

If your iceberg lasts more than 3 days, consult a physician

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 4 points 1 week ago

And maybe a physicist.

They'd probably like to know. They are very kinky like that.

What kinda coincidence is this? I feel like someone must've sculpted it.

[–] LadyAutumn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 week ago

My family is from nearby. Unironically hundreds of icebergs a year pass that area. It was honestly a matter of time.

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago

I feel the same way. I know exactly nothing about ice sculpting, and after typing this I guess I try google... what did the article call it? Sobmething that made me think chunks of glacier is otherwise normal near the coast of Dildo.

But that just seems like an extremely well place dick joke. That someone or multiple people risked their lives to pull on. Off.

And that person was {insert favorite prophet or just someone you hold in high regard}.

"Hey, it's cold out here!"

That said, I'm somewhat in awe of your standards given its thirty foot tall height.

Reached for comment, local resident Dick Cock said: "LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT WHITE COCK!!!!"

[–] MrSulu@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Quite the opposite effect of what happens to me in the cold!

Yeah, first thing I thought was "Wait - again?!?". That would have been one hell of a coincidence.

It's the hovering part that surprises me.
