Ah, it took me a while to think it through, but I get it now. The table of double digits is square, but because there's no 0 character included in the 26 letters of the alphabet, the single digit set adds an extra row to the start.

But that's the reason there are 27 in the first set and 26 in every set after that. If you start from 1, it's 26 in every set, as you would expect, right?

Is it reasonable to say the game has been "made"?

Maybe there's something I don't get here, but the rows are counted in base 10 starting from 1. Why would you start numbering columns from 0?

I'm gonna eat you like a family pack of chicken twisties (even tipping the packet up at the end to let the tiny crumbs fall into my mouth).

Ignoring air resistance?

Oh, I hadn't heard that he said that about ovals, but I've heard many other people say that Indy is too dangerous for them, so I can understand that. I reckon there's a good chance he will try WEC at least?

I reckon once Max tires of the F1 circus, he will try his hand (and probably absolutely dominate) at everything else.

I enjoy watching slow motion train crashes as much as the next guy, but everyone needs a break sometimes, you know?

The part of the urethra that passes through the prostate is usually bent. As I said, I'm only guessing, but I think by angling the penis down and pushing the prostate forward from behind, it should make it less of a sharp angle for the scope to pass through, therefore reducing pain and risk of urethral injury.

I assume you were making a joke, but just in case you weren't, it is not.

No, it doesn't. The surgeons I work with don't do prostate manipulation when they insert the scopes, but my guess is that it's a way to straighten out the urethra to assist with scope insertion in awake or lightly sedated patients (with local anaesthesia).

Update: I ran into an actual urologist in the change room and showed him the diagram. He said the only time he would apply pressure like that is to improve the position of the prostate during a prostate resection, but not just to do a cystoscopy. I asked if this was more common during direct vision cystoscopy (using your eye to see down the scope rather than a camera unit as we do now), and he said he didn't think so but wasn't sure. This guy is not that far off retirement, so he's been around long enough to remember a lot of advances in technique and technology. I think this diagram belongs in a museum.

Cystoscopy

Nice! How long are you planning to continue?

Yeah, makes sense.

I enjoy these posts. Have you skipped any days? Impressive consistency 😁

I had a locker in high school. It was against a wall. Admittedly, it was in a dedicated locker area/room and not in a major plot-device-friendly thoroughfare, but it existed all the same.

Unfortunately, adjusting to not having intact executive functioning requires intact executive functioning 😒

Why swim when you can walk, I always say...

Thanks for the explanation. I gathered from context that it was a derogatory term, I just hadn't ever looked up what it really meant.
