D’oh! CNN host says humans ‘hunted the dildo into extinction’

[Galraedia]

Apparently global warming wasn’t the only thing on CNN host Jonathan Mann’s mind when announced that humans had “hunted the dildo into extinction” during segment last week.

A recent study by Professor John Wiens of the University of Arizona found that the speed of climate change was putting species at risk for extinction because adaptations from evolutionary change happed far too slowly.

While speaking to a guest in Tucson about the study, Mann mentioned one species that viewers probably did not expect.

“Now extinctions, I don’t have to tell you, have been a part of the history of the world for millenia,” the CNN host explained. “And man-made extinctions have even happened before.”

4. "“And man-made extinctions have even happened before.”

“And man-made extinctions have even happened before.”

Perhaps some men felt personally threatened by the existence of dildos?

[tblue]

5. Na-anh. They still have them

at my local Target.

8. Well the fundies ARE working on that, but it's not a done deed yet.

Now I need to run home and make sure mine's still where I put it.

[Mr. David]

But the wife has one, and it's not outlawed :p

[Yavin4]

9. I remember the Great Dildo Hunt

Many a great man and woman went down on those dildos. I don't like talking about it.

[Socal31]

11. You can take away our privacy, and even our dildos.

But you cannot take away our cucumbers and carrots!

[niyad]

14. and don't forget the brats!!

[pinboy3niner]

12. Another popular theory is that they just petered out. nt

[Socal31]

13. ///

Only a certain sub-species, doubleous headerous has been declared endangered.

[scarletwoman]

15. Dildos went extinct?!? I thought they just needed new batteries!

[Hugabear]

17. I hear that scientists want to clone them and bring them back

First they just need to find some DNA

[BainsBane]

18. Can't be true

I've got a couple in my bedroom right now.

21. Dildo extinction can often be solved by washing them thoroughly with warm soapy water

[HillWilliam]

31. Latex toys can be safely cleaned in the dishwasher (top rack)

uhhh, or so I've heard.

[hootinholler]

23. I've never observed one in the wild

Every one I've seen has been in captivity, poor things.

[revmclaren]

27. Usually hiding out in dresser drawers,

or dark dingy closets. Not a healthy environment for the wild 'free-range' dildo.

[IDemo]

25. Question: what do you call a group of dildos?

A clutch? A pack? A fluck? Dildi?

[hootinholler]

29. A Party!

DUH!

[IDemo]

33. And I thought "Republican" was a party of dildos. n/t

[jmowreader]

30. If the group has 365 members, it's called a goodyear

,

[Myrina]

26. Um, Republicans, not humans ...

... the right-leaning segment of the population seems to have sex issues, IMO ...

[backscatter712]

28. And I thought this was a story about Ken Cuccinelli! n/t

[riqster]

32. A monument in London still honors the...

Dildosaurus Erectus :

[jmowreader]

34. I remember dildos

They were like shmoos.

Their extinction was almost preordained. Someone told an enemy to eat a bowl of dick. The enemy tried it with dildos, found out they taste like pulled pork...and the rest is history.

Now we can only get rubber replicas - a very poor substitute.

[DakotaLady]

35. Just had to pop-in on this thread ...

... just too funny.

I love it so when I, a grandma, get the giggles when I read the posts you all share with us.

Humor is good and so are giggles.

[Fearless]

38. There must be a shortage after the forced sonogram policy

Became part of the Republican mantra.

41. I made the same mistake this guy did...of course, I was 10 years old

at dinner at my friends house. I called my friend a dildo, thinking it was the same as "dodo" at the dinner table in front of his parents and older brother. There was an odd silence for a few moments, my friend who obviously was more mature than I, was flabbergasted. He informed me after dinner what it meant.
