The only acceptable place for Penis Inspection Day is in a Space Station.
Hey hey people…
My gym teacher discovered a melanoma that would otherwise have taken my life at a mere six years old. I’m confounded by the idea that only astronauts should be spared sickness. I owe my health to his daily suppositories.
I get the feeling most people don’t even get the reference I was making. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URJ_qSXruW0&t=12m13s
I’ve never seen this before, it was entertaining. Particularly the part where everyone started hallucinating and then died.
True. Think of how many you’d be able to inspect from up there!
