No exceptions." | ||
− | [ | + | Cueball denies the truism of the rule, coming up with several examples of porn that doesn't exist yet, until he comes across one that they both agree would be pretty hot: Women playing electric guitar in the shower. Megan proceeds to get ahead of the curve by registering [http://WetRiffs.com WetRiffs.com] ({{w|NSFW}}). |
+ | By doing this, Megan invoked {{w|Rule 34 (meme)#Variations and corollaries|Rule 35}}, an amendment on rule 34. Rule 35 states: 'If there is not porn of it, porn will be made of it'. | ||

Randall would later create a tumblr page called "[http://raccoonsexdungeon.tumblr.com Raccoon Sex Dungeon]" to coincide with Cueball referencing it in [[1025: Tumblr]]. |
