Yesterday, I coined a new saying, sure to be sweeping the nation. Finally, something deserving of being referred to as the “Waterj2 Principle” (or, IRL, my real last name instead). It only applies to men, however. Here it is:
“Life can never be so bad that a kick to the balls couldn’t make it worse.”
Well, what do you all think?
Amice,
I have found a flaw in your theory. What about a homo sapiens who has just been castrated by a rusty breadknife? Surely, a kick in the nuts isn’t going to aggrevate the mans condition, for he no longer bears the required fruit.
Therefore, your theory does not stand in any situation.
Sincerely,

Might I ad the Masochist to the list of non-applicants?
Grasshopper, you have achieved wisdom. Now the student has become the master.
As far as the rusty bread knife goes, I think that blunt trauma would aggravate the condition so I think it still applies.
Sn, I think that you are thinking of a kick in the original location, rather than a kick in the now-disconnected nuts.
Precisely as my right-honourable colleague fierra pointed out: one cannot kick that which is not there anymore.
Or, in Latin: Nutus Separatus Non Facilitae Kickus.
Yeah, “crotch” would be a more accurate term to use, but I decided to sacrifice accuracy in the rare case of testicle removal for a better saying. I think that the general intent of “a kick to the balls” is pretty well understood, even if rarely it might involve digging in the refrigerator or something to accomplish technically.
And I refuse to believe that masochists actually enjoy a kick to the balls. Even so, it’s not exactly a healthy thing.
Sounds great to me. The honorable Mr. Fire has brought up some legitimete concerns. I think you should change the sentance… “It only applies to men, however.” to “It only applies to non-castrated men who do not enjoy being kicked in the nuts or other testicular damage” Then it is truly a saying for the ages.
