I can't believe that no one in the audience started laughing by the end of it.
Jesus, his nuts? Now there's an argument against capping malpractice awards.
I'm not sure i've ever felt two contrasting emotions so strongly at the same time before.
Congrats to Pharyngula for being the second result in a Google search for "prosthetic testicles"
Has anyone verified the "setup"? Break.com is known for being somewhat less than rigorous in its factchecking.
Not that this poor bastard cares anymore, but we interrupt this thread for this Neuticle Newsflash: Melissa Theuriau is teh hottest.
This offtopic post has been brought to you by Neuticles - Because they can - again.
Yeah, this is a little too close to a Ricky Gervais setup to unskeptically accept as real. Any Nederlanders out there who can verify?
It's not Dutch. It's Flemish and it's a humorous sketch from a TV program called "In de Gloria".
The whole thing can be viewed here. The actor playing the victim is Lucas Van den Eynde. Very funny stuff.
Damn! Thanks, Y.
I'm a total sucker, because I even had a flicker of "wouldn't your voice only be high if they castrated you before puberty?" but ignored it for more awesome.
Now that this is revealed to be not real, an off-topic remark: This "The Spine" thing at TNR is working great for helping us avoid things that, if we read them, would cause our heads to explode from a surfeit of fatuous conventionalwisdomery.
The last two times I've gone to their website the link to "The Spine" has said the following two things:
"THE SPINE - by Marty Peretz: Can the French take a joke?"
"THE SPINE - by Marty Peretz: The culture wars spread to Germany"
Now those are two posts that I think we can all picture with 99% accuracy in our minds.
Marty says,
Let me assure you though that I am not a Francophobe. It is true that for a few years in recent times I have not bought French wines. But I did drink the ones I had in my cellar.
He's kidding, right?
Ogged, the TNR specifically gave you the option not to read a blog post by Marty Peretz entitled "Can the French take a joke?". Why on earth would you decline that opportunity?
Because you tempted me.
(I will say that he mostly took back his truly stupid post on Obama, so he's not in Lee Siegel territory yet.)
(No, of course I haven't been reading it.)
6: Which is more cruel, neutering or offering a Melissa Theuriau link without a photo?
best put a comma after 'neutering'
Two patients are recovering in a hospital room.
Patient 1: So, what'd you have done?
Patient 2: Castration. You?
Patient 1: Circumcision.
Patient 2: Dammit! THAT'S the word!
In vaguely related injury news, this looks pretty painful.
Hmm... let's try again: this.
Honestly, my foot hurts just looking at it.
Ah! Some sweet Angel of Mercy came and fixed 18. 19 is now extraneous. I owe you, whoever just helped me. I owe you big time.
No need for thanks -- I just hate looking at malformed links, and I have the power to edit.
