The Thumb


Funny thing in the "Stadhuis" in Jakarta, Indonesia: amongst the many canons that are standing there, this one has "the thumb". According to our guide there, it's a fertility icon (females who can't get pregnant have to push their private parts to the thumb, and males who cannot produce a kid perform the same ritual), although for me the real original meaning indicates something that is centuries old: I'll f*ck u :-) which, in the way of a canon, includes a lot of balls :-)
