That picture is too EXTREME!

People say to me, “Bob, where do you GET those danged bizarre photos you use?”
I comb our daily photo file, but the weirdest ones are served up to me on a silver platter, in an “Extreme Monthly” selection of shots hand-picked by some really twisted minds on our photo desk. Here are some caption snippets from their latest batch:

Here’s the thing. Despite years of reading “Extreme Monthly,” I still don’t quite get what they consider extreme. I do see that Jesse Jackson being crowned a prince next to a topless woman is a little odd, as is a devotee being harpooned like Moby Dick.
But it seems to me the cheerleaders photo above would be “extreme” only if you’re doing basic training with the Taliban and your drill sergeant catches you with it.
And then there’s the perplexing question of how an open flame shows the quality of a sex toy. Call me an old fuddy-duddy, but I don’t even WANT to know the answer to that one!

Probably enough money spent on silicone there to purchase a linebacker.
@Fruga Bastard, you do mean the dildo, right?
The cheerleaders aren’t cheering. They’re answering the question “Who here is being treated for an STD (raise your hand)?”
I don’t think you’re right. Do you really believe all those cheerleaders can spell STD?
Having said that, please visit my blog often – we need as much sarcasm here as we can get.
Is there a place I can see the full selection of “extreme monthly” photos? They seem too weird to pass up.
