Childishness, silliness, and lewdness is a core part of what Monty Python was about. Monty Python's style of humor was encouraged in the Python programmer culture from the beginning. It's ironic that Pycon's policy would prevent me from publicly reciting some of my favorite Flying Circus skit lines.

She could have just slapped him with a fish like any grown adult would do and found a more deserving target of righteous indignation.

A true Pythonista would not be offended by a dongle joke. The following link has a penis song from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life http://youtu.be/p9PiqCeLEmM

Well if the enforcer was dressed like a Colonel, then maybe people would accept it.
