City Asks Festival to Change Name Because ‘Log Jam’ is on Urban Dictionary

Log jams used to be a nuisance for the lumberjacks who helped build the city of Stillwater, Minnesota over 150 years ago, and it turns out people don’t care for them these days either.

Log jam – when the toilet won’t flush because there’s a turd stuck.

Log jam – when a group of black men have sex with a white woman at the same time.

Of course, to everybody who isn’t a junior high school kid having fun on grandma’s computer, a log jam refers to a crowded mass of logs blocking a river, a point that festival organizer Cassie McLemore hammered home:

Oh my Lord. I mean, how ridiculous do you have to be? We were a logging community; there were log jams; and ‘jam‘ kind of goes with the name of a festival. Honestly, you can turn anything in[to] a sexual meaning. There’s probably something called ‘The Lumberjack,’ too.

We don’t get what all the fuss is about. Now, if they were trying to call it “The Stillwater Poopsterbate,” we’d probably be on board for a name change.
