OMG – he’s just beheaded a tiny sheep!

My lord’s fanny pack doth come loose!

No “man purse” tag?

Forsooth, said the maiden. Luckily, my nipple shields do offer sufficient protection against the cleavings of yon mighty blade, my lord.

Dad typed swiftly and with great passion. In this fashion, he eventually wrote and published more than 400 books. Two were science fiction and 24 were fantasy, written under his own name; the rest were pornography, using 17 pseudonyms.

The sword hilt is equipped with the hilarious party trick “Instant Self-Stabber”.
The victim moves his sword toward himself and ZOINK! he stabs himself in the thigh! A guaranteed ice-breaker at barbarian parties!

@DSWBT – Damn. Would have made for a great Philip Seymour Hoffman Oscar bait film. Or a Werner Herzog documentary. Zombie porn?
Cover – Boris Vallejo wept.

@Tom Hering – Of course we have that tag. Haven’t used it in awhile.
And a Faux-nan too.

Is that the Sydney Opera House in the background?

The title brings to mind a Conanesque setting where everyone speaks in Received Pronunciation, tuts and drinks tea. Also, monocles.
And, moving on, is that sword blade made of energy, or is it just glowing with the force of the swing?

Constipation makes people do dreadful things.
March 14th, 2016 at 4:46 pm
@AnnaT: more like the force of the TING!, amirite?
…
…I didn’t even bring me coat this time.

@AnnaT: “My Lord, Barbarian. Have you been out waving that bloody great pigsticker around again?”
March 14th, 2016 at 8:44 pm
@Anna T: fie upon your ethnic stereotypes (again). ‘Barbarian’ is clearly an Armenian surname.
March 15th, 2016 at 2:42 am
@DSWBT—in light of your blurb, one wonders what’s in the “AJO Books” boxes, and the “P Dad” box.

“Now today, class, we will use this cover to study angular momentum. How many swinging things can you count on this cover?”
March 15th, 2016 at 3:41 pm
@Tat Wood: Actually, the word “barbarian” is from Ancient Greek.
Or shall we settle this matter like gentlemen, on the field of honour?
March 15th, 2016 at 3:53 pm
@Anna T: Where do you suggest – the middle of the Atlantic?
(And the Greeks used it to denote nearby foreigners, such as Anatolia. According to Herodotus the Neuri were werewolves from Scythia, modern-day Armenia. S’true: Book IV, just before the stuff about Amazons).
March 15th, 2016 at 4:03 pm
@AnnaT, TatWood: peace, I beg you both! The title is clearly a misprint of My Lord Nairabrab, an archaic term for a caravansary-owner native to Nairobi. Let us not be quick to anger.
March 15th, 2016 at 7:57 pm
Nairobi? Was that formerly Binario, country that split in two?

Oh, it’s that guy who writes that column in The Daily Mail.

The Free the Nip campaign has gotten very aggressive.

Why don’t we see the “The Man Bag, etc.” tag more often? Someone find more examples of The Murse!
March 29th, 2020 at 2:02 pm
The nipples are not yet free! They still have those metal… things on them, (whatever a slightly over cautious space sheep might think)
I can’t look at this without thinking ‘That’s not a sword, THIS is a sword! – now, what did you just say about my man bag?’
March 29th, 2020 at 5:24 pm
Does that look like a googly-eye pasted onto The Man Bag to anyone else?
