Thanks to Stephen. Should organ transplant law be changed?
In a word - disgusting.
This episode leaves a very nasty taste in the mouth and just totally out of order. Stolen body parts spring to mind.
And if this is how transplantion takes place in this country then I for one will never allow anyone except my immediate family to have any worthwhile part of me on my death. And if that upsets some people, well tough. You’ve made your bed with such rules and it looks like this is going to put a lot of people off from offering their organs.
Lost on earth
I pity the poor doctors tasked with finding a “worthwhile part” of your corpse. They’d have to use a sieve. Throw the poor fuckers a bone: swallow a few bits of useful ironmongery before you cark it?

They could hang his corpse out in the garden for the birds as an example to others.
“I for one” does seem to crop up a lot as some sort of rallying cry from the odd-er types on HYS.
“No-one but my immediate family” also brings to mind the possibility that he is just being thoughtful: Being barely human, he knows there is a strong possibility any bits of him would get rejected if they were accidentally donated to Joe or Joanna Public.
As he hints that he is an ET, then I assume his body parts are only suitable for other ET entities. Perhaps his time is better spent not being lost on earth but in seeking his home planet.
Or adopt the mantra, “I’m dead, it doesn’t fucking matter”
I completely agree with this man. I mean fancy wanting to remove people’s organs for medical purposes after they’ve died? Next they’ll be taking blood from one person’s body and putting it into someone else … wouldn’t that be awful? Having someone else’s blood? I mean what if it was the blood of an immigrant?
If organ transplants leave a bad taste in your mouth, you’re doing it wrong.

For all Lost on earth’s uptightness and selfishness, a few drinks in him at a party and he’s the first to start on the knob gags. Oh how we would chortle as he ‘offered his organ’.
i can see it now, drinks in a party, drop of rohypnol, and lost wakes up in a bath of ice with one kidney missing. spending the rest of his life wandering the streets asking people if they have it.
If he offers me his organ, I’m calling the fucking police.
I’m hoping that, if “only [his] immediate family [is] to have any worthwhile part of me on my death”, his father ends up wearing his cock. And using it to fuck his mother. In the arse.
Not, by the sounds of it, that said cock would be “worthwhile”.
