I’m sad to report I’m not that well read and while I’ve heard of a bag of dicks I’ve never heard of a nest of them. Trumps cabinet may be as close as we get.

How many people back then were just wandering about having seen a box (or nest?) of dicks? Seems like if it was a thing more people might've commented on it.

How many nests of ducks have you seen, Ed?

Barely a day goes by without a nest of cocks around here

God, history is too unserious. The crusades were started by rumors of…Dick birds?

I mean, look at the absolute bullshit maga believes... The more things change, the more they stay the same. People are still gullible idiots who refuse to think critically about anything
