You may think about food as first thought, but I consider the erotic possibilities.  :evil1:

Yes, these types of images have been around for many years now.  I remember seeing one posted to the Usenet Newgroups a long time ago.
They give a whole new meaning to the phrase "hand job".    :rotfl:

Reminds of the entry into the 'How would you modify the human body' competition of New Scientist magazine.
One young chap wrote in. I would change my hands and feet to be spider monkeys,
then I would change the monkeys hands and feet to be geckos...
Then I could climb up ANYTHING!

Kinda solves that "what is the sound of one hand clapping" dilemma, doesn't it?

Came across this one and thought I'd share.  I like the opening hand part of it.

i was just laughing about your comment, not that you are disturbed by the image, just that you still have the same opinion about it
no harm done *i hope*

Think of it this way bent winged angel: this is the allegory of your brain apprehending reality with an open mind.

jehovah you would make a great svengali! I think of it this way...  More is not neseccarily better.  For example you guys have 2 heads yet you usually use the wrong one.  Another example would be Zafod Beeblebrox. I'll go with Trillians judgement any day!
