AdamSmith Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Snow Penis In South Kingstown, Rhode Island Causes Uprising, Calls To Police Before: After: A 12-foot-tall snow penis erected from the remnants of the blizzardlast weekend is getting a rise out of Rhode Island neighbors, who havecalled police twice on the phallus. What started as a 6-foot-tall joke created by Ryan Worthington, 16,on Monday became a national sensation when onlookers in South Kingstownstarted complaining. Ryan's mom, 41-year-old Raylene Worthington, told HuffPost Weird Newsthat the icy erection should have melted on Tuesday. That is, untildozens of people showed up to take their pictures with it. "[Ryan] put it there as a joke so I'd see it when I went to work -- Ilaughed my ass off," she said. "People were taking pictures with it ...but someone called police, some were offended." She said police dropped by and laughed at the prideful statue, thenleft. The negative attention only stoked the phallic flame, and thepenis quickly went from 6 feet tall to 12. The giant snow boner resulted in a celebrated Facebook page, a writeup in a local newspaper -- which refused to run the snowner picture -- and plenty of outrage. Raylene Worthington maintains that she wasn't trying to make theblood rush to anyone's head. She was simply allowing her kids to havefun. "They're teenage boys -- there's worse things they could be doing,"she told HuffPost Weird News. "It was innocent. And to be honest,knowing that it pissed people off gave us a little charge. If you havenothing else to do in your day other than complain about a snow penis,we'll make it 12 feet tall." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/15/snow-penis-south-kingstown-rhode-island-photo_n_2695231.html?1360948021 RA1 1 Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 I don't understand why they had to call police? Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 They call the police because the US has a lot of prudes living in it. That's why I loved Europe so much. Quote
Members RA1 Posted February 23, 2013 Members Posted February 23, 2013 Who can reasonably complain about a snow penis? I am willing to accept any and all peni into my environment. This one was US normal, was it not? It was circumsized and enormous as "expected" for OUR purposes. Of course, I would not reject such which was not circumsized but that was not "offered" was it? Sigh. All is OK. Best regards, RA1 AdamSmith 1 Quote
