A Question of Ettiqute

[The_Reaper]

Since I'm not known for nonsensical posts, I thought I'd try my hand at one.

When receiving a blowjob from a man named Gabriel...

Would it be inappropriate to motivate him by singing "Blow, Gabriel, Blow" from Cole Porter's "Anything Goes"?

 

[justsimon]

I think it would be inappropriate not to.

 

[sissyboy]

I would think that nearly any Cole Porter tune would be appropriate during oral sex...

A long time ago, the magazine National Lampoon did a send-up of Amy Vanderbilt. If I recall the situation correctly, it she was purportedly being driven insane by being asked the wrong kinds of questions in an interview forum by some people who were definitely not her kinds of folks. I don't remember most of it, but I do recall that she was asked at one point to clarify whether a cheese-spoon was the proper implement to use to gouge gouge out an opponent's eye if one got into an altercation at the dogfights.

You use the cheese spoon to carve his heart out of his chest - it's an olive spoon for eye's - god some people have no class !

 

[Styrker]

YES!! As long as you don,t FART while he's doing it!!

 

[gabriel1]

What no Gershwin?

 

[runner]

I think it would be funny.

As Chevy Chase said on Weekend Update, "No, sweetie, it doesn't matter what tune you hum... gotta go!"

 

[Christopherb36]

If you sing a showtune...he might think that you were gay.

Appropriate...? Hell yes!!

Brothers and sisters, we are here tonight to fight the devil...
Do you hear that playin'?
Company:
Yes, we hear that playin'!
Reno:
Do you know who's playin'?
Company:
No, who is that playin'?
Reno:
Well, it's Gabriel, Gabriel playin'!
Gabriel, Gabriel sayin'
"Will you be ready to go
When I blow my horn?"
Oh, blow, Gabriel, blow,
Go on and blow, Gabriel, blow!
I've been a sinner, I've been a scamp,
But now I'm willin' to trim my lamp,
So blow, Gabriel, blow!
Oh, I was low, Gabriel, low,
Mighty low, Gabriel, low.
But now since I have seen the light,
I'm good by day and I'm good by night,
So blow, Gabriel, blow!
Once I was headed for hell,
Once I was headed for hell;
But when I got to Satan's door
I heard you blowin' on your horn once more,
So I said, "Satan, farewell!"
And now I'm all ready to fly,
Yes, to fly higher and higher!
'Cause I've gone through brimstone
And I've been through the fire,
And I purged my soul
And my heart too,
So climb up the mountaintop
And start to blow, Gabriel, blow
All:
Come on and blow, Gabriel, blow!
Reno:
I want to join your happy band
And play all day in the Promised Land.
So blow, Gabriel, blow!
Come on you scamps, get up you sinners!
You're all too full of expensive dinners.
Stand up on your lazy feet and sing!
All:
Blow, Gabriel, blow, (Blow, Gabriel!)
Go on and blow, Gabriel, blow. (Blow, Gabriel!)
I've been a sinner, I've been a scamp,
But now I'm willin' to trim my lamp,
So blow, Gabriel, blow.

I was low, Gabriel, low, (Low, Gabriel!)
Mighty low, Gabriel, low.
But now since that I have seen the light
I'm good by day and I'm good by night
So blow, Gabriel, blow.
Reno:
Once I was headed for hell,
Once I was headed for hell;
But when I got to Satan's door
I heard you blowin' on your horn once more,
So I said, "Satan, farewell!"
And now I'm all ready to fly,
Yes, to fly higher and higher!
'Cause I've gone through brimstone
And I've been through the fire,
And I purged my soul
And my heart too,
So climb up the mountaintop
And start to blow, Gabriel, blow
All:
Go on and blow, Gabriel, blow!
Reno:
I want to join your happy band
And play all day in the Promised Land.
So blow, Gabriel!
All:
Go on and...
Blow, Gabriel, blow
Blow, Gabriel, blow
Blow, Gabriel, blow
I wanna join your happy band
And play all day in the Promised Land,
So blow, Gabriel, blow, Gabriel, blow, Gabriel, blow!

 

[Soilwork]

You allow people who know Cole Porter songs to blow you?

hm.

 

[pjlikesporn]

Cole Porter wasn't an idiot. The bisexual composer was a very sexual creature, and he knew exactly what he was saying when he wrote songs like "Blow Gabriel Blow" and "You're The Top."

So to answer your question, it would be appropriate--but you wouldn't be uncovering any new or particularly witty subtext.

On a related question . . .

Since "The Eyes of Texas are Upon You" until "Gabriel blows his horn", does that mean that, if Gabriel blows MY horn, he could put my eyes out???
