    The urban legend goes you wake up in a bathtub missing a kidney. The bathtub is filled with ice, though, which is silly because the organ, not the person, goes on ice.

    Sure is a memorable legend, though.

      I think the idea is that it’s supposed to be beneficial to the surgery itself, causes blood vessels to contract naturally and so forth.

      But I’m pretty sure it just makes you much much more likely to die considering a lot of modern surgery actually has to go out of its way to raise body temps. I guess the other implication is they don’t actually care about that.

      Kind of a sickly sweet if I remember right. Worked in a pharmacy that had a medication disposal box and someone dropped a bottle of the stuff in front of it.

      You don’t go on dates often, don’t you?
