By the severed testes of Uranus, Batman!
So I was reading up on greek mythology, and that's not an attempt on my part to sneak a sex thread into the Lounge. That's actual greek mythology. Not Batman. The titan Chronos castrates his father Uranus with a sharp piece of flint, and chucks the testicls into the sea, spawning various monsters, the goddess Aphrodite, etc.

And it struck me of all the interesting expletives Robin used, he never used that one. And I think he should have. Also, he never used "By Jesus's seven foreskins, Batman!" I think we all got jyped, personally.

What other mythologically/theologically relevant curses should he have uttered?

1. Ooooo...you said 'jyped'.

I thought it was 'gyped'.

In any event, someone is sure to have a piece of your ass for that insensitive racial slur.

IBTL

Edited to add :sarcasm:

3. "gyped" is racially insensitive.
Which is why I used "jyped."



And you'd have to be a goon to have a problem with that.

4. At least.
That's how many showed up as relics in various European cathedrals hundreds of years later.

Who knows how many he actually had in real life. He was the Son of God, after all.

5. Is that right?
I bet they all wanted a finders fee for bringin the skin in, too... yuck.

So are you saying he had lots of penises (penii?) or that his penis regenerated the foreskin, or what?

6. That's not for us to know.
God has penises in mysterious ways.
