Athlete's Foot

Also, put your socks on before your underwear. The underwear can drag the fungus to your crotch and give you ringworm.

How come it's called "athlete's foot" on you feet, but "ringworm" when it's on your junk? Shouldn't it be called "athlete's sack" when it moves north?

That's northern dialect for you.

There is one cure. But it's fatal.

It looks different in the crotch than it does on the feet. Both were named before it was known they were the same thing. They used to think a worm made ringworm.
