Well, I know that everybody is getting tired of _Survivor_ threads, but this is something mundane that I wanted to mention. I was flipping through the channels and stopped on Leno, to see who was on. Who should I see but Jeff, the host from _Survivor_. I stopped just in time to see him talk about how, when they were filming the the challenge with everyone standing on the planks, he was stung by a jellyfish…_ **on his penis!!!** _ Yes, that’s right, you heard me… Okay, now all of you guys can breath out (like I did, after I heard it). He said, though, that there was a good side to it. Apparently, it swelled up pretty big. You know, I thought Jeff was kind of a wishy-washy guy, but I now have a new found respect for this _man of steel_. I’m still queasy after hearing it. ---

You know, that just sounds _painful_–and I’m a girl. I never got the chance to watch the show; all the newscasts and web info (not to mention you guys)–I didn’t need to bother even taping it. You know the best way to help with the sting of a jellyfish is urine… ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by JavaMaven1 \* > **You know the best way to help with the sting of a jellyfish is urine…** You’d have to have pretty good aim for that. It’s be especially hard with all of the screaming. And I don’t think I’d trust my friends to only urinate on my…well. 😃 ---

It’s sad when I knew exactly what this thread was about before I even opened it. Yes, I’m a Survivor junkie, and I have a big crush on Jeff. I thought he got bit on his left testicle. Shows what I know! ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by boli \* > \*\*I thought he got bit on his left testicle. Shows what I know! \*\* That’s what I thought at first. But then when he said that it was a _good thing_ that it swelled up, I thought he had to be referring to his Little Jeff. ---

That makes sense. I thought it was a weird guy thing to be proud of one testicle being all big and swollen. Who knows what you all find brag-worthy.
