Dare I suggest --

If you feel strongly I'll leave the choice to you, but as one of DYK's best-known hookers I recommend A4b. It's hard to explain but I think it reads more smoothly. (In case you're unfamiliar with my work, let me modestly direct you to such tasteless smash hits as The Vicar of Brighton shot in the twitten, The erection engineer elected to the screw committee, The corporate CEO grilled on the witness stand, the missionary for whom erections indicated apprehension and, of course, Dr. Young's Ideal Rectal Dilators being forcibly withdrawn after officials clamped down on them.)

I realize now that, given it's April Fools, we're allowed to take some liberties with the hook by changing SLUT --> slut. I've done that above. I've also adjusted the boundaries of what's in bold. Hope that's OK. E Eng 12:17, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
EEng, after belatedly stumbling across the donaldtrumpii nom, I can understand your frustration! With regard to this nom however, I'm still concerned, because even the word "slut" used as a double entrendre is likely to get some folks bent out of shape, and use of the plural, "sluts", may be used to pull the hook on the basis of inaccuracy (since there's actually only one "slut" in the article). As it happens though, I think I've come up with a better hook than the one I proposed above, which has the added advantage of also being less in-your-face, as follows: ALT5: that thousands of locals have taken advantage of Seattle's biggest slut?
