A Moron’s Guide to Freezing your Balls Off
For the “Instructions for a Feeling” challenge
So…
You wanna feel cold to the bone?
Well you’ve come to the right place!
This brief instructional will teach anyone
At ANY skill level
How to master the art of
Freezing your balls off!
You’re probably thinking “what if I don’t have what it takes?”
Well I’m here to tell you: a dumb idiot like me can freeze his balls off
So
Literally ANYBODY can!
You might insist “well I don’t even have balls”
Wrong!
Nuts are not the only balls you can freeze off!
In order to make this instructional useful for everybody, you may apply these simple steps
And freeze your
Eyeballs
Off— TODAY!
Let’s begin
The first thing you’ll do is choose to live in a region that has harsh winters!
You’d think these hellish wastelands would have very low costs of living
Not so :)
Many are paradoxically high
Because of the cost of salt and plows
And misery
So prepare to enter
Poverty
If you’re stuck somewhere comfortable and mild, move to my neighborhood right away!
Next, you’ll take a job working outdoors
If you’re extremely foolish like me you could work security for the local parks!
You’ll be shoveling and salting
Through storms
And slipping on ice
And hurting your ass
You’ll be cursing the sky, cursing the earth, and cursing the frictionless treads on your worn out work boots in no time!
Be sure to dress for the task at hand!
If you own long underwear, stupidly leave them at home!
If you have insulated work pants, forget to wash them so you can wear the breezy ones instead
Lose your gloves somewhere so you aren’t tempted to wear them
Don whatever socks you like best
—even your thick fluffy wools—
It won’t make any difference at all, because each time you trudge through the snow,
Delightful
Little ice crystals
Will cluster around your ankles
And piss their frigid water down to your frost bitten toes
Ah—
Glory in the hedonistic satisfaction of working outdoors when the wind chill is in the negative twenties!
Oh— and when you get to work: choose the shittiest, oldest truck the department has
The yellow hand-me-down from DoT
The one that never warms up
And know this:
When it hurts to breath because the dry, frigid air is cutting your lungs…
That’s a good thing
If you’re a dude,
Your sack
Will contract
Up into your guts
And squeeze your nads from coal into diamonds
You’ll wish you brought a hot pack
To melt your pack
Back to life
Then
When the sun sets
The temperature will dip
LOW
And you’ll be as the mythic yeti
Stalking dark, empty trails
To close the gates
And lock each bathroom
If the moon is full you may choose to bark at it
Like a lone, arctic wolf
And when your frost-bitten limbs finally crack and fall away
You will not despair because the snow banks
And icy trees
Will be glittering
Like
Geodes in the clear moonlight
