"How much is this condom?"
"$1.04"
"Why does it say 99 cents?"
"It's 99 cents for the condom and 5 cents for the tax."
"Oh...I wondered what held it in place...."

"A cloud of asteroids stalking Neptune from behind."
Where else would they be stalking, lol? And, I'm glad this is Neptune, instead of another, unfortunately named planet, that is often the butt of scatalogical humor.

So how does this affect their football team?

Neptunian Cloud?
You mean they're not circling Uranus?
To: edpc
The last time I took that Trojan out of my wallet there
WAS a kind of Neptunian cloud. Yep just checked again,
it's still as good as new even though I bought it in 1965.

Well, let's just hope Splinkter doesn't have a cloud of asteroids stalking behind. We already have enough trouble maintaining a serious level of discussion about Uranus as it is.

Saw the headline for the tread and just had to post. Problem is others have beat me to the punch with condom comments.

Tiny Tim originally sang "Tiptoe Thru the Neptune with me"...but it did not sell. So he switched to Tulips!
