It's time to gross yourself out

Imagine microwaving a stick of butter. Pour it all over your hands. Feel how it makes webs between your fingers; hear how it glistens as you rub your palms together. Try rolling over a 200 lb log now. Fail once. Feel it budge, then roll back. Fail again. Give up and call it a day.

If you were able to picture that vividly, congratulations, you can skip class...

...if your class is the one where your assignment is to yank away a two inch layer of fat off a cadaver. The harder I pulled, the slicker it got (I'll let you figure out why). The slicker it was, the harder I held. Rinse (change gloves) and repeat ad nauseam.
