Maybe it's a deep seated human fear? ETA: That pun was not intentional.

Yeah, riiiiight ...Quoth Food Lady View PostMaybe it's a deep seated human fear? ETA: That pun was not intentional. 
Does anybody know if "alien abduction" stories outside of North America involve butt probes? If not, I'd suggest it's the same mentality that says sex in movies means the audience must be age-restricted ... but blood and gore by the bucketload can be seen by pretty much anybody.Customer service: More efficient than a Dementor's kiss

Somewhat related, but when there's a joke or urban legend about the use of rodents for sexual purposes, why are hamsters always applied externally while gerbils are always applied internally?Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.Comment

LOL, really it wasn't. I posted it, read it, paused, and then had a light bulb go on over my head. As for the original question, didn't Southpark come up with the idea, or does it go further back than that? I don't remember coming across the idea before that.Quoth dalesys View Post

Regarding the thread title question, "Why does the "joke" around alien abductions usually involve hiney probing?"Quoth mjr View Post
Here is a web page discussing the issue."I don't have to be petty. The Universe does that for me."Comment

Yes, that's an example of a gerbil being applied internally, although Snopes has debunked it. Logic dictates that the gerbil wouldn't be "launched" - no oxygen to allow the methane to burn.
Hamsters being applied externally is always a sick joke involving duct tape - but the "rev it louder" crowd probably doesn't understand why the duct tape is needed.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53uVisEj_Hw“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John RogersComment
