    Just saying this for us men out here...I think "replaceable" has a more positive ring to it, compared to "disposable" :D Posted 6 years ago

      Good to see the glass half-full instead of half-empty, Ferdy ;-) Posted 6 years ago

        "Replaceable" does have a nicer sound to it than "disposable" does. The fact that the "organ" has backward-facing spines increases the shock value by quite a bit, in my opinion. Posted 6 years ago
