Everyone has seen those hilarious bumper stickers and signs that detail exactly what various occupations "do it" with -- "Actors do it on stage," "Geologists do it on the rocks," and so forth. For those who wonder why they bend over in full-force chortle upon seeing one of these phrases can pat themselves on the back as proud patrons of the double-entendre -- these "X do it with/on Y" formulations both play upon the location and situation of these activities while utilizing the connotation of "doing it" as "having sex" or "getting your winky on." To see why this sexual aspect provides a great deal of the humor, read the following two and ask yourself why one is funny and the other is not:

1. Actors do it on stage.
2. Actors perform in a variety of dramatic and comic works on stage.

TEACHERS DO IT WITH YOUR KIDS

MORTICIANS DO IT WITH YOUR DEAD LOVED ONES

PODIATRISTS DO IT WITH YOUR FEET

PSYCHOLOGISTS DO IT WITH PEOPLE WITH BEHAVIORAL AND MENTAL DISORDERS

PROSTITUTES DO IT WITH ANYONE FOR MONEY OR SOMETIMES DRUGS

SCHOOL JANITORS DO IT WITH AMMONIA AND THE VOMIT OF CHILDREN

GYNECOLOGISTS DO IT WITH YOUR PUSS

ROCK AND ROLL STARS DO IT WITH ANYONE THEY WANT, ALL THE TIME, CHRIST, WOULD THAT BE THE LIFE OR WHAT?

PEOPLE WHO OWN HIGH-QUALITY NAME-BRAND FOOTWEAR OFTEN FIND THEMSELVES SIMPLY "DOING IT," AND FEEL NO NEED TO APPEND A PREPOSITIONAL PHRASE TO CLARIFY EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THEY "DO"

If you do not see your particular hobby or profession listed here, use these as guidance in creating your own. With a little effort and wit, every conceivable occupational group in this great country could have their own DIWO (Do-It-With/On) formulation by the end of 2003. Go forth, and let the double-entendres bless this mighty land.
