Everyone knows the story of Achilles, but fewer know that he had a brother Bophadies. His mom did the same thing, dipping him in the river for protection, but seeing the fate of Achilles decided to approach the problem slightly differently. Instead of holding the baby by the ankle, she held him by the testicles, which could be much more easily protected in battle by armor. Bophadies then went on to conquer many foreign lands.

Anyway, next time Greek literature comes up, you should ask people if they want to hear the epic tale of Bophadies nuts.
