You have to wonder what kind of man feels sick and faints
just because
some other guys are discussing a vasectomy. I'm relly not
sure I'd want
this lightweight in charge of my train and god knows how
he'd react in an
emergency that possibly involved injuries. Burst into tears
and throw up
over the passengers?


How someone reacts to a conversation and how they react to a real event are
two totally different things. I also suffer the same probelm and have
meaasured my length in a pub when a discussion I was in got round to such
things (I did manage to put my pint on the bar first), despite the fact that
the injury we were talking about was mine. I've have also had to deal with
various emergencies and do so without folding up.
