This Is My Job

True story:

Today I sucked semen. My TA said I might have to suck harder than I was comfortable with for it to work, but I got it all the way up, so I guess I was pretty good at it.

Explanation:

I work at the equine reproduction lab. We do all kinds of interesting, strange, and probably gross (to the uninitiated) stuff. One of the things we do is freeze semen. To do this, you have to pipette the semen into tiny straws. They're called straws for a reason, as to pipette the semen you use your mouth. There are little powder plugs at the top, so you don't actually suck horse semen into your mouth. But you do have to make sure all the powder is wet, and you only get one shot. So, you have to suck hard enough to get the powder wet. Some people are a little scared, because they don't want to get semen in their mouth, so that's why my TA said what she said.

Yeah, it's an interesting job. :D
