Voting Never Felt So Good

2008_10_maverick.jpgSure, it's going to be gratifying voting for Barack Obama Tuesday (sorry one McCain reader), but the folks at Babeland want to make you feel even more gratified. Like, between your legs, if you know what we mean. The sex toy shop just sent over a press release, declaring that every voter that comes into their shop next Tuesday (and through the 11th) will receive a Silver Bullet vibrator, or a Maverick (pictured). That second one is for the men out there, and to put it conservatively, it's a...sleeve. All you have to do is "bring your voter registration card, ballot stub or your word of honor that you cast a ballot on November 4th" and they'll hook you up with the goods, which will probably help keep stress levels down until the election results are in.

"sorry one McCain reader"


PWND

do we even get a voter registration cards?
and, keep these posts coming of all the free schwag one can get on election day.

Whatever happened to NSFW warnings?

What's NSFW about this? The thumbnail of a dildo that is so small it looks like a grain silo with an American flag attached to it?

Well, after the f**king we've taken these last 8 years, I reckon this is appropriate.

Other proposed inducements to vote:

* 1 share of Google stock from Google NYC
* Free cupcake from Buttercup
* A hot bagel at H&H
* An extra free copy of Metro

Please add to my list.

To quote Enid from Ghost World in re: the "sleeve":

"Who would have sex with this thing?"

I just checked the website.. the toys are 20 bucks each. How can they possibly afford to give that much free merchandise away?

Also, I'd imagine that Maverick thing is a bitch to clean. Ew.

I still have my Maverick "sleeve" from the last vote for the new M&M color.

Hey, Hey....it's more like 2. And I suspect they live too far to take advantage of this. It's a shame though 'cause they need it.

Obama-bots would already be fucking themselves by vote for Obama so this is kind of redundant.

I just realized that the dildo is supposed to be a flagpole. "pole" get it? It also reminds me of the time I didn't know what a dildo was. It was in high school and someone said it in class and I said really loud "WHAT'S A DILDO!???" The teacher said something about "keep your private life out of school" and everyone laughed but I still didn't know what a dildo was. Then I went home and asked everyone what a dildo was and my older sis said it was a vibrator and laughed at me, then all the embarrassment I should have felt in class flooded through me and that's when I lost the touch of innocence that made me what I am today.

^ You're still a dildo.

bada bing, bada boom, bada bing bang boom!
