If You Can't Tell, I Have a Tattoo Reading "Watch the Teeth" in My Happy Trail Area
I BRIEFLY CONSIDERED constructing a narrative based on my utter bewilderment at the dubiously popular practice of men getting Brazilian waxes. (For one, I don't believe this trend is for even a minute, ahem, gaining traction. Secondly, I blame metrosexuals.)
Instead, you get a list.
Things That Cause Slightly Less Pain Than Having Your Balls Waxed
--A parent burying a child, a first-born, male child with whom a proud lineage also dies
--The insertion of a catheter that's been contaminated by an orderly who's just eaten a dozen spicy buffalo wings
--Employing the antiquated practice of treating diaper rash with a cheese grater
--Winterbush burn
--Watching reruns of Friends' eighth season with pre-staple Carnie Wilson sitting on your face, constantly fidgeting to get comfortable
--Postcoital cuddling (wasn't the cab fare taped to the headboard hint enough?)
--Your therapist's barely-stifled giggles following a hard-won breakthrough involving the ferris wheel at Neverland Ranch, a suggestive lyric in "Remember the Time" you're sure is a veiled reference to your genitalia, and a llama ride
--Getting your balls waxed by Salma Hayek
