It's hard to believe that someone didn't notice that. It's harder to believe that it was noticed and no one said anything. Yet clearly one of the two has happened here.

It's obviously a joke. Go to their "competitor's" website, penisland.org, and you'll see a Flash animation spoof on Survivor and one word, PENISLAND, flashes across the screen. That didn't slip by anyone.

...Well, duh. Perhaps the entire joke and point in this thread is that they're called pen island, and sell pens? Or could it really be the cheap knob gag?

Well, all you need to do is read the site properly and you realise it's either a joke or a crude marketing gag. My money's on joke, because they mentioned dipping them in chocolate. Pens, not the other thing.

I think there's a company called Who Respresents and their website is called whorepresents.com. There's a bunch of them that are listed on the Web.

Are you seriously telling me that you just found out about this? I mean, you must be in fifth grade, because that's when this joke was funny to me.

Some people come up with some pretty immature jokes. When I first saw the address, I totally saw the Penis Land first and laughed my head off because that's just how immature I really am. What will they think of next?

Haha, you said 'penis'. tongue.gif

In all seriousness, I saw Penis Land at first and actually had to look at it twice before Pen Island even crossed my mind.
