Interest fact: Urologists today often use a "scalpel-less" procedure to gain access to the scrotum. How's that work, you ask? They tear the scrotum open with their fingers like a gift wrapped in crepe paper. He said it heals faster.

I’m deadly serious about my scrotum and the cauterizing of my vas deferens.

They do the same thing with C-Sections. Tearing the stomach open by hand leaves a wound that heals much faster than slicing with a scalpel.
