The Difference

[lindapalmara]

There is a medical distinction between Guts and Balls. We've heard colleagues referring to people with Guts or with Balls. However, do they know the difference between them?
Here’s the official distinction straight from the British Medical Journal: Volume 323, page 295.

GUTS - Is arriving home late, after a night out with the lads, being met by your wife with a broom and having the Guts to ask, “Are you still cleaning or are you flying somewhere?”

BALLS - Is coming home late after a night out with the lads, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the bum and having the Balls to say, ''You're next, Chubby.''

I trust this clears up any confusion. Medically speaking, there is no difference in outcome; both are fatal.
