The eel was likely horrified too.

The lemon does make it difficult to pretend that it was all just one of those bizarre and unfortunate accidents; you know “I was cleaning the aquarium and my trousers fell down and I slipped…”

The folks in the emergency room would know it’s fiction anyway; the patient already knows it’s a lie, but the lemon makes that shared suspension of disbelief impossible.

You had gerbils? Luxury! We just glued cat fur to a stick and shoved it up our nose!

I remember when Mike Rowe harvested those on “Dirty Jobs.”

That eel, BTW, was 10cm in circumference, not diameter. 10cm is the diameter of a baby’s head! I don’t blame the poor eel for chewing its way out of his colon, either.

Not surprisingly, he ended up with a colostomy. Hope it was worth it (and temporary, too).

BTW, some people do kinky things with colostomies.

One of the articles I read either stated or implied it was not temporary. But I could be wrong.

Dan Savage would suggest he attend a Butt-Stuffer’s ‘munch’, make some contacts, learn tips and tricks from seasoned expert Butt-Stuffers.

But I want to know - what happened to the poor eel??

Sorry, but that is completely wrong. You either season your eel Japan-style, i.e. with teriyaki or in a pinch with plain soy sauce, or you go classic European cuisine and use horse radish. Lemon is absurd!

I am sure he will. So much for making a virtue out of necessity.

Only the male ones.  
OK, the female ones sometimes too, but only temporarily. As a loan, so to speak.

Eels are tough.

Sashimi from the other side’s point of view, hitting back hard. Seems fair to me.

Maybe he was thinking of it as ceviche and wanted to kill the worms.

Yes, I clicked on this thread thinking “Why, _why_, am I opening this? Surely I’m going to regret it.” But some of the posts here have been almost worth it.
