The problem with this old chestnut is that nut-tapping yourself is way better than walking around with a mosquito bite on your ball sack.

The real problem is you can just wave your hand near a mosquito and it will take flight again. You don’t have to rack yourself at all. And then you can go put on some undies, you savage.

Don't tell other people that! I'd look a lot weirder in public if people knew that. /j

rack yourself

I can extrapolate the meaning from context, but now I just want to play Pool.

Pocket pool in public is fun

And then you can go put on some undies, you savage.

Spoken like a slave to Big Fabric(tm)!

You want me to wave it off so it can bite me somewhere else? No thanks, I've already had dengue.

A lot more fun, too
