Dick Pics: News Channel-5 Nashville Appears on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver.

Memphis plays itself.

Last Week Tonight’s latest installment of “And now, this…” was a thigh-slapping compilation of all those times when local weather people have gone all American Vandal and drawn dicks on TV. The segment included a snippet from Nashville’s TV-5
(Video excerpt below).

Dick Pics: News Channel-5 Nashville Appears on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver.

Everybody should totally take the time to watch this whole important clip because there are so many more dicks where those came from. Still, it’s kind of a shame Oliver didn’t dive a little deeper into Memphis’ sordid “things that look like dicks” history. Like the infamous “welcome to Memphis” sign that looks like a bouquet of dildos. 

For reference, here’s a picture of said sign next to an actual bouquet of dildos.

And what about that enormous sperm-shaped ribbon of asphalt terminating at the Bass Pro Pyramid? Hmmmmm?

And while we’re on about it, I know she’s from Columbia, TN not Memphis, but if you’re going to do a segment on things that look like penises, does it get any better than the money-shot campaign materials created by District 65’s Sheila “rape-and-incest-aren’t-verifiable” Butt?

Maury Co. Courthouse my behind!

UPDATE:  Your Fly on the Wall often teases and must admit his own mistakes. Because the penis-drawing begins with balls over Memphis I originally identified the news feed as being from WMC in Memphis. But it is News Channel 5, Nashville. I regret the error. It’s even funnier this way. Nashville drawing balls over Memphis. Same as it ever was.
