Penis Tuesday

Fossil penises. Yes, repeat after me: Fossil penises. And I’m not talking about your horny vag chasing after grandpa-aged “old drizzly.”

Since the schlong of an arthropod (spiders, insects, etc.) has its own exoskeleton, there is a chance of digging up a fossilized member in your own backyard (or maybe the ocean floor or something). The oldest known species found with a penis is a hard-shelled sea dude that from 425 million years ago called Columbosathon ecplecticos. He’s only a little guy, being only half an inch in length; however his “little” pecker? One-fifth of its body size. Uh, so tell me about the girth…

Heeeere\'s the penisssss....

And in the “I-couldn’t-have-made-that-up-if-I-tried” department, the Greek translation of this discovered ostracode is “amazing swimmer with large penis.”

But I’m sure there is an “old balls” joke in here somewhere.

    Really? That’s what its name translates to? HA. Gotta love greek and latin words for scientific names.

Make me laugh
