Getting snipped

Rick's aversion to getting snipped reminded me of one of my coworkers when I had mine done.  He was extremely squeamish about the subject, didn't want me to mention it around him, didn't want to know anything about it, didn't want to know that such things were even possible.  So, the first day back at work after the procedure, I walked into the office and past his desk, when he gives me his usual greeting, apparently without any forethought as to how I might answer:

Him: "Hey dude, how's it hangin'?"
Me: "Actually, still a bit tender this morning..."

The look of almost fear on his face was priceless.  Before that day, I had never actually seen someone turn pasty white in the space of a few heartbeats.  It was an incredible sight.

Every time I saw him that week, I started to walk as if my nuts hurt.  He'd turn and almost run the other way every time.
