    They will follow the magnetic field. Directly, without delay, and with vigour.

    The technician hits the button causing the machine to vent and hundreds of thousands if not millions in repairs before going home and never working again due to the trauma.

    You achieve that peak of human immortality - oral tradition - but it’s limited to a generation or two of nurses.

      Also, if we suspect you’ve done so (such as a hx of inserting items into orifices or swallowing them for pica or malingering reasons), we would do an XRay or CT first.

    Probably similar experience as this lady who left a butt plug in, but instead of an anal rail gun, it’d be a stomach rail shotgun.

    Microsoft Clippy materializes as your permanent sidekick. You cannot close Clippy.

    “Looks like you’re jacking off again, would you like help with that?”

    “Looks like you’re thinking about your ex again, would you like to stage a home invasion?”

    “All women hate you, the logical conclusion is that modern day feminism is at fault, would you like directions to the nearest KKK rally?”

    Clippy has a lot of issues. It’s not worth it bro.

      The idea of a paperclip involved in jacking off made me cringe more than I would have expected.

    Let me put it this way: a) it would probably make the news and b) both the MRI team and the funeral home will curse you.

    They wouldn’t do the MRI because they’d be ripped through your body

    Imagine pinhead from hellraisers turned inside out. Also they might heat up and burn too.

    If the machine starts operating then, yes it’ll be bad.

    During initialization the machine checks for all of this. I once had a staple on my clothes and the tech came in and asked me to look for it. They didn’t know what it was. They just knew I had metal on me.

    The butt plug rail one is wild! Idk how that happened.

    Plot twist: the paper clips are plastic but the box is metal so the MRI just squares your ass away.
