Yeah wisdom teeth and our appendix. There is evoultion or ya, or maybe gods little gift to us so he can torture us for his entertainment.

Don't people die from appendicitis if doctors don't remove it before it pops? My neice just had appendicitis, but luckily they got hers out before it popped. Internal infections are bad. Damn you god for the curse that is the appendix.

the main problem with a burst appendix I believe is the resulting infection in the abdominal cavity
