I was hit three times in the groin while playing volleyball yesterday. All these years and I’ve been knocked on my ass, bopped in the nose or the back of the head, twisted a couple of ankles and really hurt my fingers when I tried to volley hard serves, but never received a volleyball in the groin even once, never mind three times in one afternoon. Totally accidental… or so they said. Good thing I’m not the suspicious type.
Anyways, there’s no harm done. The balls weren’t going all that fast, and in most cases I was able to block most of the force. Turns out I’ve got lightning-quick reflexes when I need them. My bits are safe to play another day. Although I am considering buying a codpiece, just to be sure.
