I'd personally stage an under-class-themed reenactment of Caligula, set to the soothing sounds of Creed, or whatever nonsense Clearchannel is trying to shove down our throats any given week. But seriously, pussy necklaces are almost as cool as scorpion lollipops. Almost. It’d be awesome if everyone affected by the recession could get one of those genital necklaces.

It's no surprise that people have decided to give it to themselves when the the world is also giving it to them.
