The farting during an interview question inspired me... what are guys supposed to do if they, er, become 'aroused' during an interview?? As most of you guys know, these things have a way of popping up out of nowhere and I don't want to blow my chances of being accepted--getting in will be hard enough as it is.

the numerous puns in that sentence was not lost to me :laugh:

however, i dont think they were intentional
 
exmike, your brain and mine seem to be spending a lot of quality time in the gutter together lately - let's decorate and stay awhile:laugh:
 
Hey exmike and Spacekat!

Let me join y'all. I will bring the drunk white women! :laugh:
 
I'll be one of the drunk white women....
 
Cross my legs? Ouch! That would bend things the wrong way... in ways they shouldn't be bent. In any event, I've actually encountered this unpleasant experience once at an interview, but I don't think the interviewer noticed.
 
Hey mlw03!

"margaret thatcher naked... on a cold day. if that doesn't kill a stiffy then nothing will."

You got that from an Austin Powers movie, didn't you? :laugh:

HAHAHAHA classic. this one's a keeper.

chubs are pretty common when being nervous (all that acetylcholine floating around making your palms sweat probably have something to do with it)

hopefully you're sitting across a big desk and no one will notice.

the think negative thoughts....self-injurious behavior work, but are more likely to prompt the question "is something wrong."

the chair-shift-leg-cross maneuver is the old standby. you'll need to subtly end with your hand or elbow sort of in the vicinity.

the easiest thing to do is the following: you'll most likely get a folder when you go to the school with the schedule and info and all that jazz. keep it on your lap during the interview. hope that the interview doesn't end before you "deflate". if it does, again just use the folder to shield as you turn around.

or if during the interview your interviewer asks "Do I make you horny, baby?" You can say "yup...see..... boi-oi-oi-oi-oing"


-ed

p.s. these are just suggestions - i do not have extensive boner-interview experience.
 
Too bad it's in an interview situation, or else wearing extra bangy pants usually hide the problem
 
Have you ever had those end-of-interview "is there anything you would like to add or ask us?"

Well, if you've got a raging boner, that is the perfect time to ask about recent updates to their curriculum, or whether there are research opportunities in the interviewer's field of interest. 😀
 
It's usually unnoticeable... unless you're wearing tights or something. The jacket covers it up when you're standing up, and the crotch section of the pants usually bulge out all the time when sitting down anyway. 😛
 
My usual response to unwanted erections is to flex those big upper body muscles: pecs, traps, delts, bis, tris, etc. Basically, this will draw blood to other parts of your body and away from your groin.

Also, this has the added benefit of making your upper body look bigger and more muscular, which is probably something your anthropology prof. told you that you'd want to do around young babes who activate the right parts of your parasympathetic nervous system.

Whatever...this is what works for me, but don't worry about it too much...it's very hard to phase an experienced doctor.
 
i didn't think about it when i was writing it, but yeah, i guess i did get that from austin powers.

i don't see why it's such a bad thing, especially if you have a female interviewer. she might actually be flattered.
 
When I get an unwanted visit by the Arousal Fairy I think of bugars and it seems to go away...

Just make sure your interviewer doesn't want to give you a hug.

well, all you need to do in the case that your interviewer tries to hug is to stick your butt out and far as you can. seriously, it works. :laugh:
 
If you were a real man you'd just duct tape it to your leg before putting your suit on. If that puppy gets away from you after that, you've missed your calling.
 
I meant boogers. Sorry.

Big green ones...and little crusty ones...
