Poked Posteriors

We've got a thread dedicated to spanking, one dedicated to roasting rumps, but one key butt joke is missing: the old needle gag!

And boy, are there tons of that one. Most famous might be Donald Duck, who's rump gets pestered by Spike the Bee more often than not, but this theme is found in many, many other cartoons as well. I'll just post a few to get us started, I'm sure you know more!

First up is Tom and Jerry with "The Midnight Snack". This was the second Tom and Jerry Cartoon ever (after "Puss gets the boot"... can you see the pattern?). After being abused by Tom all night, Jerry finally gets a chance for a little payback when Tom gets his tail stuck in a foldable ironing board! Obviously, Jerry cannot believe his luck as he sets off to choose a nice fork to pester Toms posterior with, smiling all the time. Tom meanwhile doesn't look as happy.

Jerry then gets comfortable right on the rump of his rival, making the most out of the moment. Kinkily, he takes his time to draw a nice little mark on Toms bottom - X marks the spot!

Now, I can't continue this topic without talking about one of the best rivalries in classic cartoons: Donald Duck vs. Spike the Bee.

In the Episode "Window Cleaners", Donald first pesters Spike, but he turns out to be more than capable of defending himself, finally throwing Donald off-balance. The hapless Duck ends up tied up and helpless, with his inviting rear end sticking out. Spike knows an opportunity when he sees one, and goes in for the sting, but Donald tries to blow him away. They both end up completely exhausted, and Spike collapses - only to find himself in quite the advantageous position! Dedicated to the task at hand, he starts another attempt at delivering his stinger into Donalds posterior - and finally, after timing Donalds' breathing, he gets it right.

OK, last up is Rock-A-Bye Bear, from the great Tex Avery. A dog is hired to watch a bear's house while he hibernates. Meanwhile, Spike the dog tries his best to get the bear to wake up - and what better way than making the other dog yelp?

The cartoon starts off with a lot of dogs in the pound. The owner tries to pick out a dog for the task at hand, but they all cower in a corner. To end this stalemate, Spike produces a long needle and pokes the unlucky other dog in the rear, making him jump out of the crowd.

Some time later, the brown dog tries to find some peace and quiet, but Spike isn't having any of that! While the dog tries to sit down, Spike smilingly places his trusty needle smack in the middle of the seat. This gets the job done AND reminds the other dog of the previous humiliation at the same time! Ouch!

Another one came to mind today: Cueball Cat, als with Tom & Jerry. In it, Tom and Jerry chase each other in a pool hall. It all culminates with Jerry hiding in the billiard table, while Tom tries to poke him out with a cue. While he's busy thrusting the cue into the table, Jerry hitches a ride on the cue and emerges behind him... along with a few choice items! Jerry musters Toms backside with a mischievous laugh before fastening the needle on the cue. He carefully lines up the shot, baits Tom and then watches as he puts all his might into poking his own bottom!

Hey, I can post markups again! Here's the one I wanted to post for the last one:

Aaand while I'm at it, here's another one: Baby Puss, another Tom & Jerry Cartoon.

What makes this one special is that it's not Jerry delivering the abuse... instead, a trio of cats find Tom dressed up like a baby and decide to have a little fun with him. Of course, this leads up to a mischievous diaper change (and a brilliant musical number, but that one doesn't belong in this topic).

At first, Tom is delivered to the changing table via express. The facial expressions tell the whole story, as the black cat giddily checks out Toms fanny while strapping on a mask - time to get to work! After administering a light sedative (applied with a hammer to the forehead) Tom is freed from the wet diaper. Then, his bottom gets powdered and oiled thoroughly. Last but not least, the new diaper has to be secured... but the way the safety pin is administered to Tom's poor rear shows a whole other intention! After another round of "anesthesia" the safety pin is removed from his fanny... and from the looks of it, the mischievous trio is quite satisfied with the result!

Are there any more going on? Can you list them all?
