It's fun

I loved it when I dismembered a human /s

It was really educational when I got to do it. Studying Netter's and Gray's (or in my case Finn Boysen Møller) can only get you so far. If you want to really understand anatomy, and the insane amount of variation that occurs, then dissection is a pretty good way forward.

You joke, but it really is an incredibly cool experience. I am not a doctor, but I was privileged to have a hands on anatomy class in school where we had human cadavers. Things are so different in person than they are in textbooks. And getting to actual see, touch, and feel how the human body works and how it goes wrong is just amazing. I was so wowed by it that it's what led me to my career today (working in a hospital lab with human organs).

I'm gonna eat a bunch of weird shit like rocks and styrofoam before I die, and confuse the shit out of whatever student gets to dissect my stomach
