It's Only Howard Stern, After All: Good point. First they came for all the men who liked fart noises and looking at boobs a lot. Then . . . well, then only women and homosexual men were left. Religious right men will likely try to deny the essential truth of this, but it's just silly, like clinging to creationism. If fart jokes weren't funny, Stern would still be playing records. Given the actual level of his talent outside the fart-joke arena, I doubt he'd even be in radio.

More: While I'm on the subject, I actually find it gross and creepy that Stern has to say "doody" instead of "shit" on the radio. In fact, it would be a victory for decency to let him say "shit" instead. Who honestly wants to hear a grown man say "doody"? It makes him sound like a pederast.
