The marmoset penis, a.k.a. jacchus hammer
Thanks to everyone who entered our Name That Schlong contest, inspired by the “Why Vagina” episode of the second season of wacky Isabella Rossellini’s “Green Porno” series on SundanceChannel.com. As all but one of you guessed, the arrow is indeed pointing to the marmoset’s penis — not that you necessarily knew what a marmoset was. But now you do! The undisputed winner is Pepper, whose entry came packaged with a mini science lesson. She wins a whole bunch of green goodies from the Sundance Channel. The rest of the honorable mention entries just win our respect (you can’t sell that on ebay but, hey, you can’t buy it on ebay either).
Winner:
“A marmoset is a monkey, sometimes no bigger than a finger. Since the common marmoset’s genus and species is Callithrix jacchus, I nominate ‘jacchus hammer,’ a la the human male penis euphemism, ‘jackhammer,’ for the slang. Runner-up is ‘jacchus in the box.'” — Pepper
First runner-up:
“Gnome dome.” — Prag
Second runner-up:
“This is a marmoset cock with a wizard’s hat for a cock head. ‘Zard sabre is my slang name for this cock. What a lucky monkey to have such a spiffy cock!” — Richard
Euphemisms we think the marmoset community is most likely to adopt:
“Monkey junk!” — Dave W
“Marmoset penis a.k.a. Marmosex Pistol” — Amanda
Euphemism most likely to be used by a marmoset’s bitter ex-girlfriend:
“The Little Pinprick That Could.” — Leo
Euphemism most likely to be used by a lady marmoset who just wants to be friends:
“A wee marmoset ween!” — Lisa
Extra credit:
“Marmie is the slang I present for this schlong of the marmoset. For the slug — I could argue the arrow is pointing toward the slug, sorta, too — it’d have to be ‘Lousiville’ (as in the Slugger)!” — Bubbles
Special mention for cracking us up:
“That pink pointy thing is the head of a marmoset’s penis and one of the finest I’ve seen this week.” — George Krause
Wow, I bow to the brilliance of Pepper’s response. I’m going all “Academy award/pageant contestant” and saying, it was an honor to be nominated in such company.
