Poorly timed boners.
Urges of infidelity.
Performance anxiety.
Popping out and knocking poles. (Let us explain.)
Our family jewels certainly know how to stab us in the backs (so to speak), and in an all-too-relatable example from this year's Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, a Japanese pole vaulter learned this lesson, um...harder...than most.
Olympian Hiroki Ogita was almost over the pole during the pole vault event, but his trouser snake had something else in mind. Feet? Over. Shins? Over. Knees? Over. Thighs? Over. Junk? Think again.
Those of us with twigs and berries know how great they are, but also know they can really ruin a good thing. Well, Hiroki seems to have had it worse than most, so here's to you, good sir.
Just don't be too harsh on the ol' one-eyed monster. Just maybe wear some tighter undies next time.
