were are the cloits?
- Their location is unknown. Kiwi
- It's right under the pecs, it's like a rib-spanning muscle.
[edit] Based on a real toy?
I don't know why, but I searched Google Images for "wooden cheese" and found this toy. It's called Lacing Cheese, and searching for it specifically brings up a lot of different models. You think that's what TBC saw the kid dragging? Should it be added to the article, of just speculation? — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 06:19, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

- this is true, but I think The Brothers Chaps referred to it as "The Cloitsterizer" in The Commentary.
MATT: The Cloitsterizer is something we actually saw; eh, it's mentioned elsewhere on this DVD, but we saw a kid dragging that around a thrift store one day—

- Not sure that really counts, as "the" fits perfectly fine in this context, since Matt starts the sentence with it. It doesn't seem to be an integral article; it's a normal, inanimate object, and therefore should be phrased as "the" Cloitsterizer, or "a" Cloitsterizer if there were multiple of them.
A similar example is how it wouldn't sound right to say "Strong Bad had a computer called Lappy 486" over "...the Lappy 486" (even though the Lappy acts like it's a living being several times but that's the first object that came to mind). — Keegster2 (Howl at me) 22:59, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
