While they’re all straight (as far as I can tell), one of my uncles did have a tendency to do this thing when he got drunk at Christmas: he’d stick a broom between his legs so the bristles were sticking out of his butt and he’d walk around pretending there was a Roman centurion up his ass and… You know what?
