I'll huff and I'll puff....

These days I seem to be kvetching a lot & using words like "lackluster" "dismal" and "dreary" with regard to Wordoxian tournaments. I'd like to turn that scowl upside dowl & discuss a very silly & somewhat enthralling tournament that I recently hosted. Warning: this blog entry is rated R.

Some of my favorite Women of Wordox (WOW) assembled for the late game &, because many of us were hammered, the lobby conversation was bawdy & wacky....it was bawky. I posed a question to the group: Why is a blow job called that? There is no actual blowing involved because, as many of us know, hard blowing would cause the blowee's eyes to bug out. Where did the term come from? Bahb's husband was kind enough to do some research online for us while we discussed this very important issue. The most logical theory he found said that the term stems from "below job", during the Victorian Era. Below the belt, I presume. Just like Bethlehem was bastardized into Bedlam, below job has changed from below to b'low, to blow. There is a possiblity that this is not the true origin, but it was good enough for us that night. We went on to weightier issues like teabagging & the Dirty Sanchez. I had a blast. There was a lot of cackling going on in the Comp Room & our one male player had to endure something that was akin to a drunken slumber party.

Yes, we were drunk & devilish that night but, truth be told, I have a feeling that these women & I would have had the same discussion if we were enjoying brunch together in broad daylight. That's one chat that I hope got scrolled away before some Wordox newbie wandered in to check out the room.

Thanks for the giggles, goils.
