Manliness? Did you leave that part out? And the "cool story, bro" is awesome. Imagine having a facepalm emoticon...
The key to a riveting story is to use technical adverbs that anyone who isn't somewhat familiar with anatomy would have to look up. Try to speak more laterally, and your story won't come off so inferiorly. In any case, if you get this wrong, you're going to feel it every minute of every day of your life. If you're even remotely comfortable with the way you walk now, I would recommend you not do it.
