I’ll let Eric, the guy who sent me the e-mail, explain this one:
“I saw this ad on a website today for apartments.com:
I’d like a two-bedroom suite in Seattle, with the following amenities: cat, dog, moving service, front desk, carport, handicapped access, and GLORY HOLES IN ALL THE ROOMS. “
I swear to god, I stared at the image for ten minutes before I went to apartment.com and realized those aren’t pictures of penii being thrust into holes in the wall, but barbells. As in, an apartment gym.
Which is kinda the same thing, according to some of the stories out on the Internet. Uhm, so I hear. Yeah.

first post !
First post!
Anyway, I’m icon-challenged myself, so you’ve got company. I need those .whatever extensions in Windows to know what program a file is associated with.
Jinx!
(This is the Eric from the email.)
I showed it to my partner Victor and he immediately said, “Weights.”
And I thought I was the more visually-oriented of us. I guess I’m the more glory-hole oriented instead.

I had no idea that “glory holes” were of equal importance as parking, allowing pets, etc.
Last post!
Jinx!
my glory hole is empty.
I see barbells….although i can see how u came to the glory hole conclusion
The weights are easy. But go two up from that…what the hell is that? “Uhh, hello. I’m looking for an apartment with two bedrooms, a kitchen, and little men with no legs or arms standing on rectangles. Thanks. Yes, I’ll hold…”
That’s the funniest thing I’ve seen all day. Unfortunately, it’s still early, but the hilarity will be taken into account by nightfall.
aargh!!! it’s penises, not penii. (like viruses, not virii!!!) or if you want to be really correct, then it’s penes. (for example, “have you ever met a man with two penes?”) </pedantic> sorry. i couldn’t help myself.
that’s not a little man standing on a rectangle, it’s a concierge; some apartments have them. welcome to america.
haha you’d think those are apple cores or something.
Glory Holes would be a great name for a porn star. A porn star of either gender.
OMG! That’s hilarious!
Hi Ernie,
I’m not sure if this even matters to you, given that your site already enjoys much-deserved popularity and more than a few awards – you’ve been nominated for Funniest Blog at this blog competition, but right now you’re not winning.
I’ve read every blog above you in the rankings and none even comes close to yours. I was wondering whether to tell you about this or not, but then you went and included the words “glory holes” in a post and I felt I was under a moral imperative to.
So. Again, I’m not sure if you can even be bothered about this, but if people reading this feel like voting (I already have), please help in the battle between funny and unfunny.
Is it just me, or does that little dog icon look like the living dead OH MY GOD IT’S HORRIBLE AHHH!!!!! And I really don’t see how you could see that barbell icon and think “glory hole!”, but maybe I don’t have enough experience with glory holes.
I think you’re all just undersexed.. I see barbells and have to twist my vision to see anything else.
Well, those look nothing like glory holes to me either…but I can tell you that if they did, I’d be filling out an app at this very moment!
Damn, I thought I had just found a new place to live.
i can’t stop laughing at this, i swear.
*dead*
Okay boo – hilarious but I immediately saw barbells. dowingba was on target about the concierge thingy though.
Looks like glory hole to me! I had to look at it closely/finish the article to see that they were barbells..
Wow! Apartments complete with pets? That’s funny.
huh. i just saw barbells.
i think ernie has something else on his mind entirely.
Barbells.
You’re sick, Ernie.
just stumbled across your site from flyingchair. good goshness, you are so FREAKIN hilarious, i just had to vote for you for funniest blog. thanks for the very pleansant distraction from last-minute-midterms-cramming! i’m definitely coming back again.
Barbells. Totally. Either that, or some weird gloryhole/wormhole combination, because really, what is the penis attached to?
