She videoed her treatment and released it on a disk.

It was a DVD.

MarcP if you lick a gentlemans anus then you are liable to find yourself at face level with their scrotal sack.

You're lack of technical knowledge makes me think you should never write pornography.

Unless he's referring to losing his job for beating his boss at basketball, due to his excessively wicked skills.

Hi guys,

Yep sooty got it.
I've played around with the wording of that one a couple of times. I do understand it's not immediately obvious so it's problematic because confusing jokes are pointless. I think probably if it was said in standup you would say it directly after another smutty (but more obvious) joke so that you've led their minds there already and they are expecting smut. As well as that if performed I would ask the performer to do that annoying inverted comma's hand action when they say 'face the sack' which is another cue for their minds to try to look for other meanings of facing the sack.

Needs work. I may find a better way to use the wordplay with a better contextual set up. Not that I am ever going to perform it.
