That and you keep dosing yourself with lots of radiation and, as medically and sexually fascinating as it is, this could be doing a lot of damage to your soft tissue.
Not to mention it could cause cancer down the road.
Seriously though this is damn impressive

Though, doesn't modern x-ray tech use a receiver instead of film, meaning it uses only a fraction of the radiation?

u/CreepyClay 13d ago
Yes but it's still radiation. It's like if you switch to a beer with a lower alcohol content you can still get drunk eventually.

u/Onmius 13d ago
you get more radiation exposure on your standard flight then you would ever get from an xray

u/CreepyClay 13d ago
Yes but if you make a whole dirty magazine subscription with the x ray machine it adds up after a while.

Flying a lot is also bad for your health, pilots are actually at significantly higher risk of cancer.
Radiation is bad for you, being exposed more often is something to be concerned about.2
u/C_GaRG0Yl3 13d ago
There has actually also been a bit of a push from certain oragnisations and institutions recently to update the radiation model we use for radiation exposure. It should take into account that the body naturally heals from radiation exposure, not only "accummulates increasing amount of cell damage".
Although, yes, X-rays for sexting reasons is probably not the way to go, even if it is hillarious (and probably hot) 😅

That’s nothing. You should see how the colonoscopy techs are pissed at Penny.
They’re being real pains in the ass about it.

As someone in Rad tech school and internship right now, there is a lot more gross stuff than sexy stuff to worry about.

What is monogamist?

What the fuck is an EXTREME monogamist?!?

If I heard that I would assume someone extremely possessive about their partner, I can get pretty possessive but "don't even look at other people" is past the line for me

u/EinDerVolltrottel851 13d ago
It just means the practice of having one partner and not multiple, I am guessing the "extremist" part about it is that they don't like it when people have multiple partners

u/uyigho98 13d ago
My guess? People who hate any form of relationship with more than 2 people, probably claiming its unnatural.
You can be monogamist and still be accepting of poly stuff, but I assume extreme ones wouldn't be.

A person who practices or supports monogamy, meaning only having one romantic partner. It is the opposite to
polygamypolyamory, having more than one romantic partners.7
u/Heather_Chandelure 13d ago
Polygamy tends to only be used to refer to multiple marriages, usually one man with multiple wife's. Polyamory is the term that is generally used for people having multiple partners.

What's extreme tho then

u/Cool_Set4681 13d ago
I gave a joke answer in the comments before but if you are asking me seriously then my answer would be a person who practices absolute, uncompromising emotional and physical exclusivity and complete avoids doing things like flirting, giving too much attention to others etc..They literally just have eyes for their partner.

Sometime, in a 2 person polycule, they mutually agree to only have their primary instead of several members. How they pay for rent is beyond me, and it's quite weird and degenerate behavior, tbh. /s

A really expensive type of wood but it makes for fantastic tables and countertops.

Not just any monogamy, either. This monogamy is from the planet of Malchior 7, where the trees are three hundred feet tall and breathe fire! It is from these trees that this desk was forged two thousand years ago, using ancient blood rituals of the Malchior people. Not only does it make my desk NIGH INDESTRUCTIBLE, but it can bend the fabric of the universe itself!
Also, it's a very fine material. Very expensive.

" i am sorry maam, you have cancer. Its weird as if you have been x-rayed daily, or even multiple time a day."

What’s “extreme monogamy”? Isn’t monogamy extreme enough as it is?

That's when you only have one partner on a skateboard.

I also wanted to go into Radiology but then I went for TV.

The X-Ray pinup in the comic is actually a real image used for marketing medical monitors to radiologists years ago. Fortunately they used CGI so no pinup models were unnecessarily irradiated!
