**SenorBeef** in the name of science (really) I suggest the following “experiment”: Jam a rusty fork up your ass and twist it for a while, remove the fork and salt the area liberally. Get back to us with the results. Unclviny ---

Oww. I suggest teasing a skunk or eating some thistles next time you get really bored. They’ll be less painful. Ow. ---

I’ve wondered what it would be like to put one end of a coathanger into your weiner and the other into a light socket. Maybe you could let me know. ---

I’ve wondered what it would be like to have a vagina, and now I know. Reading this thread caused Willie and The Boys to migrate so far up into my abdomen that I now have a hunchback. How am I supposed to explain _this_ to the missus? ---

I just saw Jackass last night. They hook up little electrodes to various body parts, including ball sacks. AND there is someone eating yellow snow. Yeah. Amazingly enough I thought it was a fucking laugh riot. ---

When we had my friends stungun I thought the neck hurt a loooooooooot more than the nuts, in fact nipples felt worse too. Maybe I have tough nuts? ---

The weirdest part is that it burns one’s nipples regardless of where one is being sprayed. ---

Well, no , I’d have really thought tasering your genitals would be nice, pretty much the same kind of nice as taking the weight off your legs by nailing your head to the door. ---
