A friend of mine has cancer, and is going to have to have a testicle amputated. We’re putting together a list of what he can do with said body part after the operation–the wilder the better!

I know you Dopers will come through for me–the guys especially, after they uncross their legs and take their hands away from their groins!

::uncrosses legs and takes hands away from groin::

What about something I was too sick to consider doing with my appendix when they took that one out? Put testicle in a small jar of alcohol/formaldehyde, make nice stand for jar, display on mantelpiece

::crosses legs and puts hands firmly on groin again, returns to fetal position::
