Default Mid-life crisis? Sell your testicle for a Nissan Z then ($35k).

http://www.autoblog.com/2013/11/27/m...y-nissan-370z/

The comments left on that page. That is all. Lol

We aren't entirely sure what's stranger about this story - that a man actually sold a vital piece of his manhood for a car, or that he did it for a Nissan 370Z. That's not to discredit the trusty Fairlady, a car we generally like, but that if we were to do what Mark Parisi did and sell one of his testicles to science, we'd be asking for a helluva lot more than $35,000.

But Parisi did just that, and announced live on CBS' The Doctors (we really can't make this up) that the sale of his nut would go towards the purchase of a Z. According to our friends Down Under (Australia, get your mind out of the gutter), $35K is the going rate for one slightly used testicle, so if you get nothing else from this story, gentlemen, know that you have $70,000 swinging between your legs.
$35k IS a lot. I'm not sure what's so "vital"; You have two for a reason. After you lose one then technically it's vital. Like your kidneys. Because now there's only one left.

Thinking about getting snipped anyway, I can give one up.

Figure $8,000 for a trip to Australia, I would have enough left over for a BRZ........

If you're getting snipped, why not go all the way with both? Is it the bulge factor? You know they make underwear to increase bulge sizes. Seriously, they do.

Don't ask me how I know. It's rated M for Mature(lationships) anyways which isn't this forum.

If I get rid of one then it will finally be symmetrical left and right.........





:kidding:

Righty would be the kids college fund


Besides, I could have a set of neuticles installed, or get a pair of chrome ones from the truck stop

You have two for a reason. It's not like your testes will be producing the same amount when you're much older (70+ years old).

You asked why not both and I answered. You need at least one.

Some people jokingly say "man, I'd give my left nut for a 370z" This guy actually meant it!

Hah as long as it's covered by insurance. But for some reason I don't think an insurance company would be too happy about someone selling their testicles

Oh, and you can tell me in great detail how menopause feels from first hand experience? Or third hand experience because wifey made someone sleep on the couch after getting turned on like a light switch?

I've still got a few decades before mine but, please, don't spare me any details, Mrs. Calamity.

I bet this was a good idea at the time sort of thing, he'll regret it later. I guess this is better than trading your kidney for an iPad like in China.
