Dora the explorer rectal thermometer is in the works.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

LIVES IN A COLON THAT'S UNDERNEATH ME?

It's just a digital thermometer... You don't have to use it in the butt.

But you can, so says the box.

This is the kind of wacky item that will be really valuable in about fifty years.

If you don't like this, you probably shouldn't check out the Squidward "massager" on the market in Japan.

 
kidsizedcoffin 2008-02-24 12:17:27 PM  
It's disturbing what spongebob's face looks like on the packaging, for Oral, Underarm, or Rectal Use

 
TeddyRooseveltsMustache [TotalFark] 2008-02-24 12:48:45 PM  
Well, you know Spongebob was gay right?

 
Heamer 2008-02-24 12:49:48 PM  
He's playing his skin flute nose on the box. Lovely.

kidsizedcoffin: Dora the explorer

I never got this title. It only rhymes if you are a Kennedy.

 
Interrupted Infinitum 2008-02-24 12:51:20 PM  
It's for when you feel like you have hit Rock Bottom!

 
ianjames 2008-02-24 12:52:00 PM  
At least the probe end isnt square!

 
daveydave 2008-02-24 12:52:32 PM  
Hey, if I'm gonna stick something in my ass when I'm feeling sick, it might as well be Spongebob.

 
Gordon Bennett 2008-02-24 12:53:03 PM  
Would have been better if the thermometer was his nose.

 
dgookin 2008-02-24 12:53:08 PM  
Where's the Squidward douche?

Hmmmm..I wonder if given his right-angularity, he poops bricks.

 
likwidflame 2008-02-24 12:53:55 PM  
Oh, Fark!

How you've become a redux of boingboing links.

I remember the days when you were fresh and edgy.

 
RoyBatty 2008-02-24 12:54:44 PM  
Gah! This is a Xeni Jardin link! Not Safe!

 
Ed Willy 2008-02-24 12:55:31 PM  
Ashamed he didn't think of it first

I got a case of the crabbie patties after reusing a thermometer.

 
Cache 2008-02-24 12:56:02 PM  
For use after your Rambo laxative.

 
The_Y2P_Problem 2008-02-24 12:56:15 PM  
Interrupted Infinitum: It's for when you feel like you have hit Rock Bottom!

Instead of playing the Spongebob Theme, the thermometer should say "This is ADVANCED darkness!" upon entry.

Can someone please post pics of the Hello Kitty rape kit?

 
TeddyRooseveltsMustache [TotalFark] 2008-02-24 01:02:37 PM  
Next thing you know they'll come out with Patrick the Starfish suppositories.

 
Hagbardr [TotalFark] 2008-02-24 01:03:19 PM  
How do you tell the difference between an oral and a rectal thermometer?

 
dahmers love zombie [TotalFark] 2008-02-24 01:03:32 PM  
Anyone notice that the manufacturer is "BD"?
Look for their new "Squidward 8-point Harness" soon.

 
AnnoyingKidNextDoor 2008-02-24 01:03:32 PM  
From the article comments, this one was so full of win:

Who checks the temperature inside your bum?
SpongeBob SquarePants!
Invasive and yellow and probing is he?
SpongeBob SquarePants!
Who's hoping he's lubricated and been warmed?
Spongebob Squarepants!
So drop your shorts and spread your cheeks!
Spongebob Squarepants!
Ready?
Spongebob Squarepants!
Spongebob Squarepants!
Spongebob Squarepants!
Spongebob...... Squarepants!

 
bigworld2000 2008-02-24 01:05:05 PM  
Christ, does everything have to be licensed or emblazoned with Spongebob or Spiderman? Please parents, just buy the regular beige thermometer. Or the plain toothbrush. Or plain white socks. Your child will turn out much better adjusted.

//get off my lawn

 
ianjames 2008-02-24 01:07:36 PM  
Hagbardr: How do you tell the difference between an oral and a rectal thermometer?

The taste silly.

 
Romeo_Santana 2008-02-24 01:07:50 PM  
Is it ever oaky to go ass to mouth?

 
FunkOut [TotalFark] 2008-02-24 01:10:58 PM  
There's nothing more infuriating that finding out some asshole broke your rectal thermometer.

 
baltimoreblonde 2008-02-24 01:13:06 PM  
Remember to take off your bikini before inserting in your bottom.

/arrrh

 
Awssum 2008-02-24 01:13:19 PM  
This is stupid. Everyone knows that SpongeBob should only be made into tampons.

 
kidsizedcoffin 2008-02-24 01:14:38 PM  
Maybe this should be a clown theme, children are used to clowns putting things into their bottoms.

 
Lagaidh 2008-02-24 01:14:45 PM  
madmann: WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

LIVES IN A COLON THAT'S UNDERNEATH ME?


I came in to voice my amusement for the headline but madmann my friend... you elicited a true out-loud laugh.

/salute!

 
40oz_A_Knight 2008-02-24 01:15:15 PM  
Would you eat a rectal thermometer? Answer me, damn you!

/can't believe I've been able to reference that episode twice on Fark in 6 months

 
kokomo61 2008-02-24 01:15:54 PM  
It has a 'bite resistant' shield....

....one would hope, right?

 
Fibber McLiarson 2008-02-24 01:16:21 PM  
TeddyRooseveltsMustache: Well, you know Spongebob was gay right?

Yep - but what I didn't know was that he had died.

/kinda sad

 
shadowmaster 2008-02-24 01:16:48 PM  
Is BD the same company that had the Speedy Gonzales Laxatives a few years ago?

 
ziponwheels 2008-02-24 01:17:19 PM  
NBC turned me down when I wanted to license a Chris Hansen rectal thermometer. Its their loss.

 
Darth Jawa [TotalFark] 2008-02-24 01:19:15 PM  
crazynickstyle: This guy watches SpongeBob.

This looks like a giant anus that's been ripped out and about a couple feet of gut came with it. WTF is it supposed to be in the show ?

/This guy doesn't watch SpongeBob

 
skinink 2008-02-24 01:19:28 PM  
It's better than the Adult Requiem for a Dream Rectal thermometer. That one is only allowed to be used ass to ass!!! Ass to ass!!! (NSFW)

 
endlessoul 2008-02-24 01:19:47 PM  
madmann: WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

OMG. Thread over. You win.

Was? Did they send him somewhere special?

I know its beautiful, but I didn't take it out for air.

 
LowbrowDeluxe 2008-02-24 01:21:23 PM  
Now you can re-enact Spongebob/Patrick slashfic in the privacy of your own home!

/Okay, technically Patrick is a *pink* starfish...

 
K3rmy 2008-02-24 01:21:38 PM  
Spongebob. . .rectal. . .I WANT ONE!!
