Watch Kelly Ripa Try To Determine The Length Of Regis Philbin’s Penis

video
» 19 comments

A recent study in Korea has been released that claims to find a correlation between the length of the index finger on a man’s right hand and the length of his penis. If the index finger is shorter than the man’s ring finger, there’s a good chance his penis may be longer.

I know what you just did. Yes, you the reader. If you are a man, upon reading the previous two sentences, you quickly looked at your own hand to see how you measure up. Don’t worry. Anyone with a penis reacts the same exact way to this news. And anyone without a penis quickly finds the nearest man to test them. That’s what Kelly Ripa did. It just so happened that, when she heard the news, she was on live tv and the nearest man was Regis Philbin.

So, how did Philbin do? Well, after checking his hand, Ripa discovered that his index finger was indeed shorter than his ring finger. Looking over the study, Philbin replied “It actually makes me feel pretty good.”

I know what you just did there too. Upon reading those last two sentences, you quickly opened up another tab on your Internet browser so you can stop imagining Regis Philbin’s penis. Again, this is a completely natural reaction.

    This has to be one of the MOST lame posts on Mediaite.

    Didn’t Mike Douglas do the index finger test with Zsa Zsa Gabor’s help on The Mike Douglas Show back in 1965?

    Maybe it was Jack Paar and Miss Monitor.

    I am not sure of the test results.

    Pat Robertson used to do the penis index finger test on The 700 Club with Jim Bakker. Was an overused bit, as they did the test almost every week.

    The Penis Index Finger Test was one of the reasons Jack Paar walked off the Tonight Show.

    CHICAGO (AP) — The nation’s largest education union has endorsed President Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign.

    Members of the National Education Association voted to support Obama on Monday at their annual convention in Chicago.

    Color me stunned.

    An utterly meaningless study if the Koreans didn’t include other nationalities, as this may be a characteristic of Asian men only. However if they bothered to check with, oh say, men of my ethnicity, they could further validate their study.

    Since when is being a goat considered an ethnicity?

    I find this entire Penis Index Finger Test story to be limp and flaccid. Short as well.

  • Perdido

    Don’t all men have a longer ring finger than index finger? And isn’t just the opposite true for women?

    Normally but not always. I read online about a serious study which correlated a higher possibility for being transsexual with people who have atypical gender specific ring/index lengths.

    I will have to Google this and find a link.

    Your attempt at humor is likely as flacid as Regis’ penis. But keep trying, you’re usually funnier when you don’t try at all.

    It is a controversial subject.

    It’s safer to just tell the girl you’ve got a big one, and ask her to trust you.

    Relax,Goat. No need to bleat with angry frustration. I’m just teasing the livestock,mkay.

    Isn’t Rippa married to a Latino?

  • Just my Opinion

    Wouldn’t it be easier to just use a damn ruler?
