A grandfather cock, therefore...

therefore... why would that lead to the reactions were seeing?

Maybe it's just a gag... maybe I just don't see the humour in this one.

Oh well... :)

Is evidently something that is a great threat to mental and emotional stability if thought about for too long... or at all.

Yeah, that's how it seems...
Which is why I'm not getting it.

For a strip that's guns-out, respect for all both human and NON-Human...
I found it a bit... just not funny, that mentioning the fact that older men (32 at the (legal) extreme young side)... have penises!!!! results in the extreme reactions shown.

Like I said... maybe it's an age thing... :)

Is it cold in here?:
It works inclusively of grandfathers if the horrified reactions in the last panel are reactions to Brun continuing to talk about genitals when everyone thought the conversation had moved to the less emotionally charged topic of timepieces. "Cursed phrase!" would fit on that reading.

Making fun of our culture's bizarre twitchiness about those sweet grandparents having sexuality is another possibility.

To me, it's the combination of the two. Kind of a "tactical TMI" kind of thing.
