Doesn't Garp's mom get pregnant by mounting a dying soldier or something? Or am I thinking of something different?

The preview seemed to imply that she's going to be fighting on tonight's episode. Vanessa is a woman of high passion, and sometimes she, er, forgets to turn on that part of the brain that self-censors.

I vote with Not Bob. "nobody's perfect."

Wasn't the car parked in the driveway hit by a moving car while the oral sex was being done and, um, the consequences were rather more severe than the receiver's mocking the giver as a "rookie" for making contact with her teeth?

Of course, I neither read the book nor saw the movie, but considering the number of papers I wrote (and received A's on, natch) in college under such conditions, as well as what I currently do for a living, who the fuck cares?

In the World According to Garp, Mrs. Garp bites off Garp's pecker when the car she is blowing him in gets rear-ended. Sort of a proxy DP gone terribly awry.

Yup. Originally printed as a short story in Playboy, entitled "Jenny and the Ball-Turret Gunner."

I would simply like to note that I would never have described this very same event as I did in the post preceding Wonk's had I not followed this career path.

Nor would I have written the sentence above in that style had the aforementioned cursed career path not been followed.

And so on, ad infinitum, ad nauseum, etc.

What conditions were you referring to in your first post?

I bought the book when I was a kid because the movie looked good to me (mainly because Mork was in it), but I was too young to see it. My mom found out I bought the book and, knowing a bit about the book herself, threw it away because she thought I was too young to be reading it. I found the book in the trash and started reading it again anyway. She found the book again and disposed of it in a more permanent manner. That always struck me a sort of odd, given that my mom was quite the crunchy hippie chick. The censorship was unexpected.

I've never tried to read the book since. Or watch the movie. Mom won.
