your balls just come hurtling down.”

Here are some of the most-upvoted responses from people about penises:
1.
“People control their urethra from the base of their penis.
Not the tip.THATS WHYTHEY HAVE TO SHAKE IT OUT.

This blew my mind.
When I turn the faucet on, the exit point is right there.
Other people have to go through a hose that they can only control from the base!”
