The entire English-speaking world, generally Tom Send a noteboard - 26/03/2011 04:55:01 PM
Peter, Willy, Dick, "John Thomas" (that one's more English proper), or even, Monty Python tells us, Percy, are all acceptable slang for the male genitalia. I tend to prefer the word "cock".
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Which apostles of Jesus Christ have you known? In the biblical sense, of course. Vivien - 23/03/2011 04:52:48 AM 1739 Views
About as close as I can get it is a Mary *NM* random thoughts - 23/03/2011 04:55:10 AM 347 Views
Yeah... Inequality and discrimination is so annoying! Vivien - 23/03/2011 05:10:48 AM 780 Views
most of them don't even have decent female versions to use *NM* random thoughts - 23/03/2011 01:10:15 PM 365 Views
Slutty. I like it *NM* Urza - 23/03/2011 05:10:03 AM 400 Views
lol, how many apostles do you think is slutty? *NM* Vivien - 23/03/2011 05:11:37 AM 460 Views
Depends. How many you been with? *NM* Urza - 23/03/2011 05:12:28 AM 452 Views
My answer. Vivien - 23/03/2011 05:14:54 AM 1029 Views
Oh prude! 12 would have been a much sexier answer *NM* Urza - 23/03/2011 05:19:45 AM 1356 Views
Where is the line between prude and slut? *NM* Vivien - 23/03/2011 05:34:57 AM 458 Views
Sorry, trade secret. *NM* Urza - 23/03/2011 05:37:46 AM 467 Views
Darn! Vivien - 23/03/2011 05:44:33 AM 996 Views
My challenge to you... Urza - 23/03/2011 06:39:06 AM 895 Views
You don't get to give me challenges. Vivien - 23/03/2011 03:09:10 PM 850 Views
Of course I do Urza - 23/03/2011 08:34:29 PM 775 Views
I think it's related to statistical significance. *NM* Aeryn - 23/03/2011 10:55:26 AM 438 Views
Also, 12 would mean that there was a Judas. Vivien - 23/03/2011 05:56:59 AM 773 Views
oh man, i gotta remember dude's names? temeraire - 23/03/2011 05:44:06 AM 1017 Views
What do you mean, "maybe"? Vivien - 23/03/2011 05:46:54 AM 1001 Views
Yeah, you're winning so far. *NM* Aeryn - 23/03/2011 10:54:16 AM 458 Views
You know, Joshua and Jesus are the same name. Ghavrel - 23/03/2011 06:54:52 AM 855 Views
Good point. Joshua/Josh counts. *NM* Vivien - 23/03/2011 03:55:11 PM 473 Views
How can they have English names, when English didn't even exist yet!?! *NM* ironclad - 23/03/2011 08:56:09 AM 467 Views
God must be a forward thinker. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/03/2011 09:34:07 AM 346 Views
Well he is omniscient, and he loved Evangelical Baptists above all. It makes sense. *NM* Aeryn - 23/03/2011 10:56:05 AM 455 Views
Different ethnic versions of the names are fine. *NM* Vivien - 23/03/2011 03:12:18 PM 455 Views
Joshua = Jesus. According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal beetnemesis - 24/03/2011 10:08:27 PM 789 Views
Because cleary, God is a Brit. Michael - 24/03/2011 12:40:28 PM 834 Views
My response. Aeryn - 23/03/2011 10:53:06 AM 927 Views
1.5 nossy - 23/03/2011 02:43:46 PM 928 Views
Why? Vivien - 23/03/2011 03:15:23 PM 861 Views
lol, I'm sorry, that just got a lot funnier than I had expected it to. nossy - 23/03/2011 03:25:38 PM 1028 Views
Then it doesn't count. Vivien - 23/03/2011 03:53:55 PM 922 Views
Have a John is better than none...? *MN* Joel - 27/03/2011 03:42:09 AM 803 Views
Half a John, hahaha. Classic *NM* ironclad - 23/03/2011 03:55:37 PM 451 Views

*NM* snoopcester - 24/03/2011 12:00:03 PM 442 Views
In a strictly Biblical sense, it's the men who do the "knowing" and women who are "known". *NM* Tom - 23/03/2011 10:20:34 PM 427 Views
"How many apostles have known you?" Fantastic. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/03/2011 11:05:25 PM 464 Views
LOL. *NM* Vivien - 24/03/2011 04:12:21 AM 455 Views
Do women get to know anything then? *NM* Vivien - 24/03/2011 04:25:24 AM 413 Views
Can they know themselves? *NM* Vivien - 24/03/2011 04:31:24 AM 476 Views
Good question. According to Biblical scholar Richard Elliott Friedman: Tom - 24/03/2011 01:36:56 PM 896 Views
That seems over simplified in a few areas, though I've always agreed with the, er, "main thrust". Joel - 27/03/2011 05:13:14 AM 1075 Views
What a terribly thought-out and absolutely groundless response you have shat out. Tom - 28/03/2011 05:56:56 AM 1109 Views
Next time I'm defending you against charges of elitism remind me to forget this exchange. Joel - 28/03/2011 08:38:10 PM 737 Views
I never asked you to defend me against charges of elitism; I am an elitist. Tom - 29/03/2011 12:55:12 AM 1116 Views
Hahaha, no kidding. *NM* Vivien - 29/03/2011 03:56:43 AM 339 Views
Then I'll have to settle for hoping you're not as representative of RAFO as some fear. Joel - 31/03/2011 10:06:34 PM 968 Views
Oh, did I offend you? Please let me continue to do so. Tom - 03/04/2011 05:24:25 AM 1057 Views
Also, John and Jonathan are not the same name. Tom - 24/03/2011 02:48:49 AM 763 Views
Well Tom, if you've *been known* by both a John and a Jonathan, my hat's off to you. Vivien - 24/03/2011 04:11:49 AM 790 Views
I have come into the world, but the world has known me not. Tom - 24/03/2011 01:43:36 PM 868 Views
Nice *NM* Vivien - 25/03/2011 10:19:37 PM 432 Views
Which is why "Johnathan", "Jonathon" and the like are such abominable names. *NM* Legolas - 25/03/2011 07:41:02 PM 453 Views
I hate it when people of the same ethnicity have different spellings of essentially the same name. *NM* Vivien - 25/03/2011 10:20:32 PM 463 Views
Алина, Алена, Елена really bothers me Tom - 25/03/2011 11:42:56 PM 861 Views
Americans still have that "official name vs. everyday-use name" thing to a very large degree. Legolas - 26/03/2011 12:08:26 AM 968 Views
Germans do it. Tom - 26/03/2011 12:20:21 AM 806 Views
I think you'll find they do it rather less these days. Legolas - 26/03/2011 12:31:54 AM 909 Views
I think you may be misunderstanding the concept of nicknames. Ghavrel - 26/03/2011 04:17:09 PM 779 Views
Is it me, or are your first and last sentence in direct contradiction of each other? Legolas - 26/03/2011 04:55:33 PM 908 Views
Possibly; I don't know what their parents intended. Ghavrel - 29/03/2011 01:41:32 AM 727 Views
I have known people who did it random thoughts - 29/03/2011 05:41:32 PM 730 Views
Actually, all Slavic languages do it extensively. Tom - 26/03/2011 12:29:39 AM 853 Views
My experience with Slavic languages is extremely limited, but... Legolas - 26/03/2011 12:44:19 AM 732 Views
But "Tom" isn't a proper name. Tom - 26/03/2011 01:53:38 PM 819 Views
For a lot of people it is. Legolas - 26/03/2011 04:52:57 PM 945 Views
Hoi polloi do a lot of idiotic things. Tom - 26/03/2011 04:58:46 PM 895 Views
Oh that's not that bad! Vivien - 26/03/2011 03:48:05 PM 868 Views
Well, you're in luck! Tom - 26/03/2011 04:52:18 PM 782 Views
But I can't! Vivien - 26/03/2011 05:13:20 PM 737 Views
Sure you can Tom - 26/03/2011 05:56:10 PM 793 Views
But... Vivien - 28/03/2011 07:28:17 PM 903 Views
But "Anya" only has a meaning as a short form of Anna. Tom - 29/03/2011 05:29:33 PM 711 Views
So you wouldn't love me anymore if you found out my given name was Bobby? Joel - 27/03/2011 05:18:19 AM 921 Views
I don't mind it if the alternative spelling is at least somewhat current. Legolas - 26/03/2011 12:03:54 AM 915 Views
I love how as long as you're around I don't have to point out stuff like this. Joel - 27/03/2011 03:26:04 AM 912 Views

Re: I guess I haven't gone the apostle route TaskmasterJack - 24/03/2011 09:59:17 PM 791 Views
Are there more Peters, or are Peters more likely to get laid? *NM* Helene - 25/03/2011 06:08:51 AM 462 Views
Re: Are there more Peters, or are Peters more likely to get laid? Aeryn - 25/03/2011 11:10:47 AM 868 Views
I had no idea! Helene - 26/03/2011 04:28:06 PM 882 Views
The entire English-speaking world, generally Tom - 26/03/2011 04:55:01 PM 773 Views
I know a lot of words for male genetalia, but I'd simply never heard Peter... weird. *NM* Helene - 26/03/2011 05:51:56 PM 461 Views
I've never heard Peter as a word for penis. Rebekah - 26/03/2011 06:00:12 PM 795 Views
Really? There's a whole off color joke built around that in The World According to Garp. Joel - 27/03/2011 03:53:57 AM 925 Views
It's never too late! *NM* Vivien - 25/03/2011 06:42:01 PM 445 Views
Ah, I'm probably going to be known by only one man for the rest of my life Helene - 26/03/2011 04:27:41 PM 840 Views
Well then maybe it is too late *NM* Vivien - 26/03/2011 05:25:46 PM 392 Views
Yeah, most likely :-) it's actually quite nice to be honest. *NM* Helene - 26/03/2011 05:52:37 PM 469 Views
Just Magdalene, sorry, and she only counts if you're a Gnostic or Neo-Gnostic. Joel - 27/03/2011 03:23:58 AM 808 Views
Best I can do Bad Ash - 28/03/2011 07:01:17 AM 907 Views
