What On Earth Is This World Coming To?

[Groupie]

My nieghbour just rushed in and told me "BEAVERS are to be renamed ‘riverdogs’ after zoologists finally conceded defeat to the overwhelming forces of sexual innuendo."

[Old_Geezer]

Yeah like that'd work for all of time.
Is it April the first ?

[jim360]

I don't... I don't think this is real.

Could possibly grow to like them,,,who knows?

[seekeerz]

Nothing in this "modern world" would surprise or amaze me.....BUT what is the sexual innuendo surrounding the name ..BEAVERS?

Google The Daily Mash - it's a spoof from 4 years ago.

It's an Americanism.

///Professor Nikki Hollis, a beaver, tit and cock specialist at Reading University, said: “In a world retarded by the proliferation of free internet pornography and the children’s magazine Nuts, it is no longer viable for any species to have a name that is transferrable to the male or female genital parts.”///

And a pretty sad one at that

\\\Professor Nikki Hollis, a beaver, tit and cock specialist at Reading University\\

That is certainly ultra-specialisation.

[sandyRoe]

It's a change from ENT, I suppose :-)

[Svejk]

[Canary42]

[Sqad]
