If you don’t stop that, you’ll go blind

Leave it to Cracked.com to come up with what is perhaps the most unusual playlist of the year: the 15 best songs entirely about masturbation.
Staffer Kevin Hill gets the ball rolling with one of my favorite ledes of the year: Prostitution may be the oldest profession, but masturbation is the oldest pastime.
The list is a silly romp through some of the best-known songs about you-know-what, but I have to admit, it wasn't until I was watching a VH1 program in my thirties that I finally learned the true meaning of Cyndi Lauper's "She Bop," which narrowly misses the top slot at No. 3.
Might want to keep the kiddies off the list, though. The language used to celebrate those who clearly are not masters of their domain can be a little colorful.
As long as we're on the subject, though, the best movie moment I can think of that addressed the same … er … pastime came from the big-screen adaptation of Neil Simon's play, "Brighton Beach Memoirs," in which a pre-"Seinfeld" Jason Alexander had a small role as a pole player. He's not in the scene in question, but somehow it seems to complete the circle that he later ended up in "The Contest."
