Explanation: That's not a young crescent Moon posing behind cathedral towers after sunset. It's Venus in a crescent phase. About 40 million kilometers away and about 2 percent illuminated by sunlight, it was captured with camera and telephoto lens in this series of exposures as it set in western skies on January 1 from Veszprem, Hungary. The bright celestial beacon was languishing in the evening twilight, its days as the Evening Star coming to a close as 2022 began. But it was also growing larger in apparent size and becoming an ever thinner crescent in telescopic views. Heading toward a (non-judgemental) inferior conjunction, the inner planet will be positioned between Earth and Sun on January 9 and generally lost from view in the solar glare. A crescent Venus will soon reappear though. Rising in the east by mid-month just before the Sun as the brilliant Morning Star.

I’m going to miss Venus.
Where are we going to get women from now?
Spectacular.
Planet Snu-Snu
So I looked that up and found this...
“The Amazonians are a race of gigantic, cavewomen like humanoids from the Planet Amazonia. They all worship the Femputer. When the Planet Express crew visits Amazonia, The Femputer sentences the men to execution by “snu-snu”, which is the Amazonian term for sexual intercourse.”
If you have to go, might as well be with a smile.
"So, wanna get a pizza?"
Transgenders from Mars???
Men are from Mars, women are from Venus, transgenders are from Uranus.
Beautiful!
This thread is veering toward the gutter!
I’m actually surprised it took that long.
Yea, there's that.
…and drummers are from Pluto. From the movie, Still Crazy.
There’s another version of that story, commonly told as a joke, involving three male adventurers who get lost in the jungle and are captured by a tribe of primitive men. They are accused of being spies, tried and found guilty, and then given a choice of sentence, “Buff Buff“, Or death. The first guy chooses buff buff and gets roughly buggered by a big tribesman. The second guy, seeing the first guy’s terrible distress, is torn between buff buff and death, but ultimately chooses buff buff. He too is roughly buggered. So the third guy chooses death, and the chief of the tribe proclaims, “OK, death by buff buff!”
Hey, I didn’t write the joke.
