Government is again putting its nose into peoples' private business.

And you better hope they can hum a tune while they're at it.

And don't forget the warning signs:

* Forget the dog, beware of the dildo.
* Insured by dildo.
* Have dildo, will use.
* Dildo control is being able to hit your G-spot.
