Damn. Louisiana is so perfect that there is nothing left to improve except for …

A Republican lawmaker on Wednesday proposed that a bill raising the minimum age for dancers at strip clubs also allow the state of Louisiana to regulate strippers’ weight.

State Rep. Kenneth Havard was discussing the bill, which would raise the minimum age for exotic dancers from 18 to 21, when he also threw out there that he’d like the dancers to remain under 160 pounds, according to The Huffington Post. Havard also suggested the maximum age for a stripper under the law should be 28.

After everybody looked at him as if he had left his brain in the freezer at home, Havard backtracked and said, “It was just a joke.”

No dude, the joke’s on you.

To prove it was a joke, Havard said it was an equal-opportunity joke.

“It was aimed at both men and women. I can’t strip either. I’m a little overweight,” Havard told the Times-Picayune.

A little?  Ya think?

Holy cow, Child, put down that bowl of étouffée and go sneeze because your brain is dusty.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.  

And Thanks to Bob for this one  —
