I'm old and my balls only hang low when it's hot. December in NY, those suckers are tucked up next to my kidneys

Indeed. I always like to know the relative ball hangage of my fellow farkers. +1 Bonus for seasonal reports.

Does it wobble to and fro?

 
oldfarthenry [TotalFark] 2007-12-30 05:19:13 PM  
That's why us oldsters wear knee-high wool socks - to keep the boys warm during them long winter months.
Please vacate the frontal terra-firma.

It's high 60's here in SC, and I'm at about a mid-dangle myself.

You know you're getting old when your balls hit the water when you sit on the toilet.

When I was little I thought the ball was actually dropped from high up so it would smash to pieces at exactly midnight.

The first time I saw the ball "drop" I was severely disappointed. More like lowered...

 
bheilig 2007-12-30 08:24:13 PM  
Gonna go see the ball drop for the first time tomorrow. What do people suggest?

 
Omegamerc 2007-12-30 08:36:41 PM  
*whistles*

Do your balls hang low?
Do they scrape against the floor?
Do they chafe in the sand?
Do they drag in the snow?

 
yotta 2007-12-30 08:40:57 PM  
1942 - 1943 - Due to World War II, the descending of the Ball was suspended.

How did they expect the German U-boats to tell the correct time?

*I only spent one New Years Eve in NYC. Avoided Times Square like the plague. Went to the Apollo Theater instead. Very few white faces.*

NYC only has one ball but it's swollen up bigger than you could believe.

We should all be thankful for the big apple this new Years eve, because without that great city the media would not have enough stories like this to keep bubble gum journalism alive. Everybody knows that reporters fall back on booze drugs and crime when idle or bored.

It's well known that the new cast members Titan and Wolf are.
Terry Hogan takes a break from his divorce settlement issues to host. He can go back to pushing his big yellow package again, like he did in the 80s, for extra special featured gayness.

Actually, my right one hangs lower...additionally, when the boys are cold and tight, the left is turned kinda sideways so it sticks out further to the front than the right.

.balls.

Stay as far away from Times Square as possible.

Stay home and watch it on t.v. Sweet tiny infant jesus I wouldn't go to Times Square tomorrow if someone paid me less than a million dollars.
