Priapism.

I cut my finger with an electric hedge trimmer once. That was urgent, but non-life threatening.

Anything that requires a doctor, but not the ER.

Had to look up priapism. Made me laugh because it reminded me of this guy in college who had this condition. We all gave him so much grief for it.

Also didn’t help that his girlfriend liked to use jam during foreplay and meowed like a cat.

Constipation, intoxication

It’s better than diarrhea, intoxication. LOL.

@jca2 I’d rather be over-relieving than be stopped up.

I totally agree with that, @ARE_you_kidding_me. However, to have diarrhea when drunk sounds not too appealing LOL. I was joking when I commented on it, based upon the thought of someone being fall down drunk with diarrhea.
