    For a brief period, mandolin music became very popular in France in the 1870’s.

    The ram’s horn dildo just didn’t reach the right spot, so Mildred decided to “repurpose” that funny-looking guitar her aunt had given her for her birthday.

    Her playing is terrible, but who cares.

    I never realized that ‘Pregnancy Test Strips’ had gone through so many changes. It is nice to know they’re much smaller now.

    The bad news is she didn’t get the gig playing at the strip club. The good news is they offered her a different job dancing.

    It wasn’t how little she wore/ although that WAS hard to ignore/ what made her a star/was that pseudo-guitar/which no one had mastered before.

    The artist entitled the painting “La joueuse de mandore”, i.e. “Woman playing a mandore.” Tearing our eyes from the lovely lady, we ask—after a moment to catch our breath—what’s a mandore? The mandore is a kind of lute, predecessor of the mandolin. The instrument shown here is a very oddly shaped mandore; most were much more pear-shaped. As for the most indelicate and ungentlemanly question posed by odd90745, this detail shows tassels from her gown are what lie along her ever-so-shapely left calf. See https://www.pinterest.com/pin/315955730079986066/ for the detail.

    She discovered that everyone stopped making fun of her homemade mandore when she took off her top.

    Paula’s playing is so bad, she had to devise a method to attract a audience but those breasts won’t keep them too long, so she is thinking about total nudity.

    But they neglected to tell her she needed to wear a top.

    The ad called for musicians who could play Beethoven’s “Eroica” solo, but this poor waif’s manager could not read well, so he convinced his client that all she had to do was to perform “Erotica”. Another prodigy got the job, but Aliya was given a post on the staff of the producer, and performed nightly for a select clientele, developing into quite a sensational talent.
