I blame the lager. No man who drinks stout could be that stupid

that and poor aim ...

You trust the word of a guy who shoots himself in the hand after beer....

Do you take financial advice from confidence tricksters as well?

If it was only one beer? I always knew the Engilsh couldn't handle there liquor

if the doctors couldn't cure it (as stated in the article) ... maybe he needed better doctors.

or since you mentioned a nurse could do it ... maybe he should have gone to a nurse instead of the doctor ...

They only ever asked him. I bet they did the procedure in the past, it came back and he didn't go back for another freezing.

Warts are caused by a virus, so just hacking them off won't make them go away.

What works for one wart, even most warts, does not work for every wart. Even surgically excising the wart will sometimes fail. It is indeed possible that he will have the wart recur on his stump!

Many things are curable with modern medicine but there are few guarantees, regardless of the country or insurance system. One thing that is never curable is stupidity! (except perhaps by amputating at the neck! )

Guns are only illegal if you don't have a license to own one.

Good thing that no-one really thinks that guns restrictions in the UK means that there are none about.

It is illegal in most jurisdictions here to be intoxicated and have a loaded gun at the same time. Fortunately, nothing ever goes wrong here with our widespread possession of firearms!

As it should be. Good thing, some states even restrict convicted felons rights to bear arms because of their reckless an irresponsible behavior.

Yeah, I hear you. People who need a reason to drink beer suck.
