    I feel like getting deliberately kicked in the junk before surgery could have implications. I hear torsion is a bitch, and i wouldn’t want to have to explain that to a doctor or delay a procedure people wait literal years for

    I think I’d want the cremated remains of my bits turned into a keychain, kick that around instead and make that boomer “she keeps my nuts in her purse” joke.

      whenever i have body parts removed i ask the doctor if i can keep them. the only doctor who has obliged is the dentist, but i have given all those teeth to his assistants (she had to make a model of the human mouth out of real human teeth for dental/hygiene/something school i really don’t know the 90s were weird dude)

      everything else went into the incineration bin, but let’s be honest the bullshit i lost needed to be incinerated

      I know someone who kept the destroyed specimen. It wasn’t cremated, it was in (I assume) formaldehyde. I got to see it, once.

      I think if I had such a thing, I’d start a cabinet of curiosities.

      Eh not really. Especially if you had a couple of weeks for any bruising to heal. The main stuff that sticks around is mostly already internal or is just skin.
