‘I really wasn’t worried’: US man was getting vasectomy as earthquake struck

If one has to consider one of the most chaotic places to be during an earthquake, the operating table of your own vasectomy is surely up there on the list.

For Justin Allen from Horsham, Pennsylvania, this was his exact reality on Friday when the New York City metropolitan area and its outskirts were shaken by a 4.8 quake. The earthquake was centered near Lebanon, New Jersey, according to the US Geological Survey, though people reported feeling its effects across New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania.

“I thought maybe a train was passing by or it was just something that happens at that office, even when the doctor was like ‘I think this is an earthquake.’ I figured he was messing with me, but he had to stop because everything was shaking,” Allen told the Guardian.

Allen said the doctor operating on him “put the tools down for a moment”.

Imagine if they goofed up, and the result was the opposite of what is intended, and he just starts cumming by the gallons from now on. What a goof!

Sir I think you set my balls to Wumbo instead of Mini.

Thaaaats not what a vasectomy does but it does paint a vivid mental image.
