Poor Carrie Fisher. Besides never being able to live that whole Princess Leia making it with Jaba the Hut sex fantasy thing down, she's also had to contend with alcoholism, pill addiction, bipolar disorder and the el weirdo-ist "mom boyfriend" ever, who, as Jezebel points out, prompted her mother to give her a rawther unusual erm, stocking stuffer, (heh). In her new memoir, Wishful Drinking, she writes:
"When I was about fifteen, my mother had started dating a man named Bob Fallon, and my brother and I called him Bob Phallus, because he came equipped with exotic creams and sex toys. You know, aphrodisiacs. Well, actually, Anglo-disiacs, because we're white. Anyway, thanks to Bob, that Christmas my mother bought both my grandmother and myself vibrators! As unusual as a gift like this sounds, you have to admit that they are ideal stocking stuffers. I mean, you can fit the vibrator into the long top part of the stocking and still be able to get another cute little gift in the toe! Well, I have to admit, I enjoyed mine, but my grandmother refused to use hers. She was concerned that it would short-circuit her pacemaker. She said that she had gone this long without an orgasm; she might as well go the whole way. (And that pacemaker, by the way, was later recalled)."
See, it totally makes sense, you know, because it perfectly fits in the stocking and stuff. Um... Wow.
