« National Pinky Ring Day Proposed by Screw-Up, for Screw-Ups »

Much like colorful track suits, slicked-back hairdos and cement overcoats, pinky rings are generally worn by individuals associated with organized crime.

Wearing a pinky ring has long been seen as a badge of honor for members of such gangs as La Cosa Nostra, aka the Mafia, aka the Mob, aka the Italian Stallions; the Bloods, aka Boyz in da Hood; the Crips, aka Snoop-Dogg's Homies; the Latin Kings, aka Los Vaqueros Locos de Villa Nuevos; and, most feared of all, the Hell's Angels, aka Satan's Homies.

In fact, for many hoodlums, getting one's first pinky ring is a rite of passage almost as important as killing one's first fool who looked at you funny and didn't give you no respect.

To commemorate this day, this comedy blog would like to throw our support behind National Pinky Ring Day. Please get involved however you can and be sure to let everyone you know about this important movement. We will be working closely with our gambling creditors, er, friends of ours, to make sure your cash donations are laundered, not squandered.

And in case you were wondering, the rumors, as per usual, are true: Flavor Flav will serve as National Pinky Ring Day Spokesman. Or else. After all the time and energy I've committed to this dude's career, it's high time Flavor started returning the favor. Boyyyyyyyyy.
