I had an ingrown toenail fixed. There is a nerve that comes in and branches in two in the bug toe. In my toe it branches into three!



Even identical males twins don't have the same penis structure/routing. Thanks for sharing your own personal example (I am the twin, in mine).

Another example is that of sciatia, which is much more prevalent when your sciatic nerve takes one particular path to get through the glutes. Other routed methods and sciatia is much less likely to be debilitating.

So that's the reason behind the dick pics. I thought it was just to show off, but it's for identification. Makes total sense now.


It was a close run thing between that and retina scans for the top secret lab's security.

You've got to unzip it.

A form of biometric authentication, perhaps? Assume one has a spare CT scanner or some such thing, and doesn't mind discriminating against roughly half of the population.

Did you and your twin, um, compare penis structure/routing?


I know someone where the main artery into one kidney branches in two. Seems like a possible evolutionary step to bifurcation into more smaller kidneys. ;-)


Anecdata: A family member had one of those third smaller kidneys.


I have that. One normal kidney on one side and two touching but distinct maybe 75% sized kidneys on the other.
