Usapang Yagbols

Here are some facts and legends about our marbles. Some are scientific; others are based on humorous legends and theories. 

 

• Inside our bean bag, each yagbol is about 1 1/2 inches long and 3/4 inches across.

• Each has about 250 separate chambers.  These contain convoluted tubules, all of which eventually empty into tubes leading back to our body. 

• Our manjuice is produced and held within them (you know that, right?). Each sperm is about 1/500 inches long and takes between 60 and 72 days to develop.

• Ever wondered why they are hanging outside the body? It is because the temperature of our baby batter needs to be controlled. Sperm production occurs only at 4 degrees below normal body temperature.  A higher temperature not only hampers the production but can also kill your spooge even before you wipe it on a Kleenex.

•  Our yagbols get bigger - roughly 50% of their original size - when we get aroused.

• The orchid - yes, the flower - got its name from a Greek word meaning "testicle".

• Want bigger nuts? Fly to Ethiopia and get yourself infected with Elephantiasis. It is a condition that can swell your jewels to promotions vastly larger than your head.

• The Aztecs called the avocado "ahucatl", after their word for testicles, part;y due to its resemblance to a testicle but also because it was supposedly believed to be an aphrodisiac. 

• The words testify was rooted in the Latin "testiculus", or testicles, since our yagbols have always been a witness to our virility throughout history. The word witness, on the other hand, was testis - and it is on them that he would swear. The King James Bible even alludes to this meaning, referring to oaths taken with a hand on the thigh.

Now, enough with these nonsense! Go check your boys in front of the mirror and answer this week's poll question!
