In Soviet Russia, it actually is lupus.

LoL!

A plumber, you say?

Some kind of

House doctor?

[–] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I love this. Certain surgeries absolutely involve some amount of "plumbing", e.g. connecting the blood vessels in a pig heart transplant (I think they even refer to it as plumbing, perhaps informally). And I think it's very accurate to say that plumbers, electricians etc. are to houses as surgeons are to living creatures.

I got a novel plumbing job from a surgeon!

I got genital nullification surgery. With My weiner removed, I needed somewhere to pee from. So the meat man plumbed My urethra downwards to around where cis women keep theirs, sans clam. I have what's called a meatus, which is a medical term for an opening on the body. The end of My hose is neither a male nor female socket. It's not a socket at all!

That awesome.. and/or horrifying. I'm so glad I'm comfortable with the default configuration my body came with, and don't often have to think about stuff like this. But I'm also really glad you seem happy with the results of your, uhhh, renovations!

Although.. What exactly is a male socket? I've always thought of it as an outlet, nothing goes into it, stuff only flows out.

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

nothing goes into it

not with that attitude!

(but like, seriously thats a kink. ~~to no ones surprise~~)

[–] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 9 hours ago

Lol, I knew someone would chime in with that. But by design at least, there should be no flow from the outside in. To the extent that we can call evolution's craftsmanship 'design'.

The only thing I know about that is the scene from House where he catheters himself. To the extent we can trust the show's medical accuracy, his reaction during the insertion, and the number of pain pills he took beforehand, let's just say it seems highly unpleasant!

Ohh... I was still thinking of human biology :P

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago

Does yours not look like that?

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 14 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

He should consider doing a sketch show with Stephen Fry

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I've never felt like breaking into a car before, but now I kinda do 😄

Maybe he should try his hand at football coaching in stead

[–] AppleTea@lemmy.zip 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I like the bitesized street gags. The one with the cabbie I think of often

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 hours ago

Yeah, those are great too!

I also love Hugh's brilliantly stupid songs such as Where is the lid and Mystery 😆🥰

I'd be surprised to see the Prince Regent, too.

[–] tutter@lemmy.blahaj.zone 49 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

its definitely not because of lupus i can tell you that much

[–] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 13 points 15 hours ago

Sarcoidosis maybe?

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 33 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe offer him some Vicodin

[–] Wildmimic@anarchist.nexus 4 points 14 hours ago

Naah, would be wasted on him, send it to me instead, i make good use of it!

[–] enchantedgoldapple@sopuli.xyz 6 points 14 hours ago

It's definitely not Dr. House. You can tell by his face that he's actually willing to listen to what others have to say

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 6 points 14 hours ago

"wow Hugh's Russian accent is spot on"

[–] kuiskaaja@lemmy.ml 8 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

[–] sculptor0725@sh.itjust.works 4 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

There's a 90s-ass CRT monitor in the background!

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 3 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

There's a 90s-ass CRT monitor in my house too. It's dope af. Might even be the same chassis which was everywhere.

[–] hydrashok@sh.itjust.works 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

That’s still high tech in Russia.

Dude the stumbleupon button really takes me back. That was a huge part of my childhood internet experience.

[–] Ariselas@piefed.ca 1 points 12 hours ago

Prince Ludwig the indestructible?

I thought Kevin Keegan died last week?
