Get the opossumism mug.The practice of inserting a opossum into the rectum via pipe with the intention of deriving sexual gratification. Gerbilling often presents as a gateway to opossumming as individuals’ appetite for internal stimulation goes unsatisfied by smaller rodents. The opossum’s solitary, nocturnal tendencies make it particularly well suited for internal use though users report significantly more internal trauma compared to gerbilling.

Get the possuming mug.Also known as "Possum Wampin," "Possum Stompin" or "Possum Beatin"The act of getting a few people around, going out driving on a back country roads at about midnight or so, attempting to find, and kill, these useless rodent creatures called Opossums(possums). These creatures are commonly found wandering on the road licking the salt left on the road after winter and so early spring is the best time of year to carry out this game. Once the group of possomers comes across a possum, everyone jumps out of the vehicle and runs after the animal to surround it and the carry out the execution. They are not fast animals at all, have no natural predators, are mostly diseased, and are always found on the road flattened with their guts hangin out. And so the small game of "Possuming" has been created. Possums are usualy killed by baseball bats, pick handles, guns, chains, vehicles, and things of that sort.
