Short backstory: wife got COVID 10 days ago, eventually infected me and here we are. She is way better at managing these sorts of things, I usually just get on with it.

As with a lot of the world, COVID has kicked the shit outta me more than expected. I thought I was soldiering on great, timeline compared to the missus, but it came in with a vengeance. Xmas delayed, so I decided to try some of her remedies to assist.

My lovely wife has been consuming a lot of steam to flush all the garbage out, in the way of hot showers and streaming under a towel. Now it should be noted, I'm quite a clown when it comes to serious situations, so I'll try to make light of anything.

As this was post-shower, I'd decided not to try yet, and as I approached the chair that had my steaming bowl of water, I jokingly went to dunk my ballsack towards it. Unfortunately for me, my wife wasn't even paying the slightest bit of attention to me, and bam! Boiling hot ball dip. I'm now sitting here with an ice pack on my swimmer pods while my head is still completely fucked.

TL;DR Tried to have a laugh while getting better, and burnt my ballsack in the process.

Your wife not paying attention had nothing to do with you actually dipping your balls in the water, don't even try to go shifting some blame onto her lmao

I don't see how "wife wasn't paying attention to me" equals you dipping your balls in hot hot water instead of just stopping and going back up.

So you need your wife to stop you from dipping your balls into hot water?

How have you managed to live this long?

I am sorry for you. But I have to say, reading this gave me a good laugh! I tend to goof around in that kind of situation as well, so that could have happened to me for sure. Get well soon stranger.

For a moment I thought ‘COVID 10’ is an older version of ‘COVID 19’.
