I don't find that image to fit the family friendly intent of this forum.

Aww ... seems I have offended the Ayatollah. I shall have to go to Las Vegas, just like Salman Rushdie.

Is there actually an artistic wallplug website?

Should go nicely with the "naked air guitar in the shower" the website xkcd comic characters came up with many moons ago.

Clearly a baseless allegation - How do you think families get started, my esteemed fellow forumite?

But, it seems even mildly-risque'-albeit-silly cartoons are offensive to the forum gods these days, so those wishing to peek at the 'toon which so quickly got hustled off to the censors' banned-items bin may do so by implementing the following algorithm:

1. Find the location of the how-to page for my Mlucas code;

2. Replace the 'README.html' trailing part of the URL with 'images/funny/Wired_Couple.gif'
[I use single quotes only for delimitation, you want the content between the ''.]

To the censors: "See the violence inherent in the system! Help, help, I'm being repressed!"

The angle sheds doubt on the particular hole penetrated in the picture. She seemed surprised rather than unhappy, so it's probably the lower hole.

I hope so or it would be an ungrounded assumption.

I got the impression of that being more a look of "My electrician husband just walked in on us" surprise. "Why the shocked faces?", as it were.
