Weekly Prostate Exams FTH (For the health)
I read a very disturbing statistic from wherethefishlives' pulse.
"According to WebMD, 80 percent of men who reach age 80 have prostate cancer. WTF? I didn't know it was that high."
I just had a health screening at my work last week, and according to the nurse I'm in "perfect health." All my cholesterol levels, blood pressure, etc. are at perfect levels. That means that there's a great chance that I will live pass 80. Shit, I don't want prostate cancer, or any cancer for that matter. But if I had a choice of what cancer to get, I definitely wouldn't want it to be in my prostate of all places.
To prevent myself from getting prostate cancer, I'll going to start getting weekly prostate exams. Yes, you heard right, weekly. As much as I hate HATE having a finger probing around up my ass, I'm willing to sacrifice my level of discomfort to be prostate cancer free. In fact, I think I should start a club, kinda like a book club, but for prostate cancer. A bunch of guys getting together to hang out, eat, and give each other prostate exams. Don't worry, I'll make sure we eat before the exams start. We don't want no butterfingers up in this club.
Will you join my prostate cancer movement? RSVP today!
Speaking of ass, I wish I could do this. I posted this on Facebook and ibizajb said "I bet you can do this...with a desktop." He's so mean to me. =(

HAHAHA i see a America's Got Talent Finalist in the making...
That is the most random commercial ever.
Your Prostate Exam Club proposal sounds like something you'd probably already find on Castro St. in SF.
"I bet you can do this...with a desktop." <~~The most win comment ever.
"A bunch of guys getting together to hang out, eat, and give each other prostate exams." Sounds like a Friday at my house...you should come over.
FAKE!
my grandfather, who is 80, has stage 1 prostate cancer.
i don't think checking it EVERY WEEK will change anything, wuwu.
just start checking for it when you get a LITTLE bit older. 
say... 50?
hiiiiiii
"prostate ... movement?" ... better prostate than bowel. The statistics for TODAY's 80 y-olds reflect the ignorance man have had until recent years re prostate cancer risks. Since you're young enuf to start regular screenings at a timely age (the "triple check" beginning about 40 or so), your risk should be much lower. Funny, I vaguely recall that the medical community once used to encourage men to help examine their wives' breasts for lumps (like I could possibly tell). Wonder if we'll ever see ads on NBC encouraging guys to learn how to check hubby's insides (maybe Logo)?
Oh my darling. Oh my.
you could probably do it. =)
are you sure your prostate movement doesn't have an ulterior motive?
is the vid real? gosh!
Statistics will vary depending on whether you're using incidence or prevalence, but 80% sounds a little too high. It's true that many men will get prostate cancer, but most men with prostate cancer will die *with* it, as opposed to *from* it, if that makes sense. In any case, I think you need to switch from pitcher to catcher. That'll give you a free exam! (Kidding.)
HAHAHAHAHAHA
do it.
@Mr_Jin - you don't have to ask me twice. i'm coming over this friday!
@ch0w - really? which part gave it away? perhaps the one where he throws the laptop from the roof?
@Akiko - you're right. i think i should be checking it daily.
@Roadlesstaken - what kinda ulterior motive could i possibly have? 0=)
@franksabunch - baby i'm versatile.
@wutuwaitn4 -
no, his hair is obviously fake.
@wutuwaitn4 -
Don't forget the lube!
did you know one of the ways to treat prostate cancer was to remove your balls? yeah, you better start your club today
WOW, i'll check my own thanks
hahahah. trying to gather a following huh? youre so clever
HAHAHA...that's talent there!!
@Mr_Jin -
real men don't use lube.
Well, you really don't have to start getting an annual exam until your 40. But if you want to start now, I suppose it's better to be safe than sorry. Also, if you want to live to be 80, I suggest you don't catch anything larger than a laptop in your ass.
@wutuwaitn4 -
Well, I don't use traditional luber per say. More like hocking a fat loogie.
dang.. those are some tight buns!
doesn't it hurt his nutsack? it's not like it's thrown into his crack lightly
whats worse than getting a prostate exam...giving one me<--. my attending makes me give one to every patient who comes in.
