AHEM, SHLOG?
Alright, I'm tired of friends reluctantly saying the name of my blog. And of fellow bloggers reluctantly posting the name of my blog.I get it. It's dirty.
"Shlog" is similar to "shlong." "Shlong" (actually spelled "schlong") is a slang term used by thirteen year olds no later than the nineteen eighties for "penis." "Penis" is the anatomical name given to one component of male genitalia. Genitalia are utilized in sexual intercourse. Those who don't engage in sexual intercourse as regularly as we very attractive happily married folk giggle at the mere mention of a word in any way related to sexual intercourse.
"That's funny. He said penis and then geni-something and a long word with sex in it...a lot."
Grow up.
Shaun + Blog = SHLOG. That's all.

shaun,
to further your etymological understanding of "shlong"...
the german word for snake is schlange, which sounds like shlong-u. Make the natural connections and you see how we reach 13 y/o thoughts.

You could try "Blog + Shaun = Blaun" instead. Or maybe "Blog + Groves = Bloves". Somehow you could also call it "Glrog".
The list goes on and on... explore your options.
Oh, great! Being of the much older, married and female persuasion I had never put this together and just assumed that shlog was shauns + blog. Now I can't even say the name of your blog anymore without giggling...
Maybe you should have a contest for your faihful readers to re-name your blog. Wait, from reading their comments it would probably be worse.
cheers,
shari
I saw the obvious from the start, both Shaun+Blog and schlong (I never thought I would type that!), but figured that the former was your intent. The latter I have not heard since I was at a B52's concert when they sang "Strobelight".
love the picture.
You said shlong.

I did. And in an unexpected turn of events it's attracted more than forty viewers from this link posted over on Derek Webb's message board.
Geez, tough crowd.
man i never got it............i never thought of a penis when i read your blog......i must be getting old!! and im not even married ......lol
nice one setting the record straight
see, I didn't know that. now I will have to be all careful about saying the name of your blog. ignorance is bliss.
HEY HEY HEY I do not giggle when talking about sex! :p Okay well there was that one time in the lunchroom but that was not me laughing I swear to God! It was the other Amy siting across from me...we were in high school talking about Nuns, Christians, and sex. I was saved, she wasn't it was interesting.
ANYway I still love Shlog. (AND I DO NOT SAY THE NAME OF YOUR BLOG RELUCTANTLY!!)
that was hilarious! what really made it even more so was the giggling baby picture! I had honestly never thought that when i saw the word 'shlog'. . maybe it's a 'guy thing'?! *a young guy thing?* and I suppose because there's such a huge variety of words for penis?!
I am a nurse. I see a penis on a regular bases. It is so true how young people smurk at the word. I liked the picture you used!
P.S.
I did not think of penis either when I read SHLOG. Now you have planted that seed in my mind. What will I do????
I never thought of "shlog" as a dirty term but I'm always careful when I type in shlog.com - you never know what might be hidden in those misspellings!
Hey man! Glad to see you laughing at it. I think it's fine. I wouldn't change it now. SHLOG POWER!
