I'd do a trade... a kidney for a lung and some liver. good deal. I wonder what my cardio would be like with 3 lungs. :p

wow, OP is seriously messed up...

care to elaborate?

I'm not disagreeing by any means. I mean I thought we were joking about kittens and all of the sudden I am pondering giving away a major organ.

I just want to make sure I follow...

I wouldn't mind donating a kidney but it would have to be to someone I liked. Not just a random co worker that happen to be a bit o bitch to me before they got rid of her position.

Both of mine are full of stones, so I don't think anyone would want mine

I don't think anyone would want mine, given one of the conditions I have.
In-fact if anything it would be me needing one. :(

Who is his sane mind would out of the blue, decide to give their KIDNEY to a coworker just bcoz the conversation started with a misunderstanding... its totally out of this world, do you even know the consequences? This is so unimaginable and unbelievable that it almost seems like a troll thread begging for a parody, embarrassment vs Kidney? dignity vs kidney??? dude... common... really... why are we even discussing this...

Nope. I've decided that sex from a hot and incredibly grateful woman is the only acceptable currency for this transaction.

What kind of sex r we talking about? a one night stand for a kidney is definitely not it. She has to a sex slave or something like that... serious basement S&M shit...

She doesn't have to be a prostitute.
She could be an undercover cop working on a case of entrapment trying to catch little Johns like yourself. :sneaky:

If she really needs a kidney I have nothing to worry about. ():)

nope only family members and close friends.

By your logic, why not give away all "extra" organs up right now to anyone in need?
hell, give your money while you are at it.

but I doubt you will go through with this anyway, since you need to post it on ATOT.
I foresee a complication preventing you from donating.

Fuck, I don't think I'd donate an organ to anyone who I didn't really care about.
You will see "organ donor" on my driver's license, however, when I get it.
