A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    I think there’s a “What?” under the word phallus because it’s a really long stretch to claim that the cup is an inverted phallus. I love imagining how the person marking this paper felt… reading along, thinking “hrmmm ok ok… ” and underlining a few things, making a few comments, and then “WHAT THE HELL…” and just marking the rest of the paper as inappropriate and giving a zero. hehehe.

    the clip a trailer for a longer movie. If the writer wants to write a paper on it i think he/she should watch the whole thing, or change the last paragraph to acknowledge that.

    As the holder of a women’s studies BA, that paper is PURE GOLD, and largely representative of how I felt about most of my writing assignments for one professor in particular.

    Also, that tattoo is incredible.

    LOL, that video is so fucked up, ive seen it before, my friend and I were rolling on the floor laughing so hard. If I was taking an english class i probably would have written something like that too. One of my papers was about arborphilia,(people who fuck trees), I got an 80 on it. The tattoo is funny too.
