Punched in the Nuts

Have you ever been punched in the nuts and what are your general feelings about being punched in the nuts?

Punched not, bet I received a ball during a handball game and it was not fun, I just stated loud that holy mary was a prostitute and that god is a pig (common curse in italian, “porcodio”). Screaming blasphemy and profanities help in reduce pain, lok in wikipedia for " hypoalgesic effect of swearing"

Why? Did someone kick you in the nuts?

Accidentally hit myself in the nuts with a belt buckle once. It’s not an experience I am keen to repeat. Was rushing to get ready for work, and thought threading the belt through the trousers before putting them on would be quicker, I was wrong, and wrong… :smirk:

DM that RPA and I’ll give you the details after an NDA.

Bicycle weld gave way (seventh-hand bike my skin-flint old man bought for $4.) Landed on the cross bar. EEEEEH over HIIIIIII C.

No, I’ve never been punched in the nuts. :wink:
General feeling about it? Some people probably deserve it.

Ah, when I was 12 I had a Hercules, the cheaper nastier British made bicycle cousin of Raleigh, it had a Sturmy Archer 3 speed, the gears were all in the hub of the rear wheel. It had the unfortunate side effect of a) weighing a ton, and b) slipping out of first gear when hastily selected.

I think you can guess where this is going, picture me racing towards the steepest hill in town in 3rd, then pushing the gear lever as the effort increased only for it to miss 1st gear, and me to glide unceremoniously to the curb after landing on the crossbar. I can almost still feel the pain…

I would favorite you, but that would be putting a heart on. (Say it out loud.)

Once a drunk punched me in the groin, not long after I had been participating in an athletic event where you are required to have serious groin protection; and I was still wearing it. :sweat_smile:

“I was going down the doing 20 mph
When the chain on the bicycle broke.
I landed in the grass with a sprocket up my a*s”
Never got a good finish for that one.

Never kicked. Punched. Three times. A bully came up and said:

What’s the capital of Thailand?

…

Bangkok!

As he delivered a punch to the nuts. I should have realized that these weren’t “friends” and avoided them for the rest of my life. But for fear of loneliness and ostracism, I remained acquainted.

The nuts never really heal and one has their guard up at all times as a result. Quite traumatic
