Rugby fan castrates self:

A rugby fan who cut out his testicles with wire cutters to mark a Wales victory is at a loss to explain why he did it.

Geoffrey Huish, 31, performed the impromptu self-surgery in February when his beloved Wales beat world champions England.

After performing the deed, Mr Huish put his severed anatomy in a bag and took them to his local social club to show fellow fans.

He collapsed with blood loss and was rushed to hospital but surgeons could not reattach his missing parts.

He was put in a psychiatric ward but has no history of mental illness and was at a loss to explain why he did it.

"I'd told my pal Gethin Probert before the game that Wales didn't stand a chance," Mr Huish told The Sun.

"It wasn't a bet but I said I'd cut my b*lls off if we won.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I posted this story months ago. Unless it was a different rugby fan who cut off his testicles and took them to a local bar to show fellow fans.

The article is from the 16th, but it says the castration actually happened in February, so it's probably the same guy. I hope.

Hopefully it's not a trend.

Vote on the world's worst sound.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Does anyone know where I can get time on a laser cutter for free? I'd totally do something like this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Try craigslist.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm never taking my testicles to Wales now.

It would seem safest to go there without them.
