ban all “Inflatable Gorillas” Responsible owners of inflatable gorillas keep them under control.
Hate the game, not the gorilla.
To: humblegunner
If the entire gorilla burned it might fit with the “Mangled Genitals” ping list. But you never know for sure.

I want one for my back yard.

Someone has to say it:

Let’s just hope that it stays a “low volume” ping list.

You an Eaker fill that with acetylene again ? We lose more inflatable gorillas that way.

To: humblegunner
Geez, can’t we make it through one week without a gorilla fire?
