Yeah it does that filtering thing... It is the center where your lymph re-enters your blood and takes out the crazy bad things to be excreted. It is majourly important and without one you would die within a few if less than an hour... Isn't that your liver?

Wow. I ... don,t think I ever had a spleen to begin with, then. )'=
PS: the only thing Ontario has is NOTHING. Save for the Niagara Falls, it's about as exciting as Manitoba. <.<;

you don't NEED your spleen. The spleen, a small and gooey organ located below and behind the stomach, surves the purpose of filtering pure awesome thoughts. Brain waves are sent directly to your spleen, which filters out unawesome thoughts. Pure awesome thoughts are then sent directly to your mouth. Are you saying you want us all to have unawsome thoughts? Ah, what do I know; we are all pawns of the spleen god.

Uhh no... You liver takes the nasties that your spleen did and didn't filter out, along with dead blood cells, and extra water and salt. Then in becomes urea and is mixed with water to make urine... to make it simple... [glow=red,2,300] Bad, un-awesome thoughts[/glow]

Then in becomes urea and is mixed with water to make urine... to make it simple... [glow=red,2,300] Bad, un-awesome thoughts[/glow] You're thinking about kidneys there, buddy. Liver: An organ in some animals, including vertebrates (and therefore humans) that has a number of functions in the body including glycogen storage, plasma protein synthesis, bile production and drug detoxification. This organ also is the largest gland in the human body. Spleen: A ductless, vertebrate organ that is closely associated with the circulatory system, where it functions in the destruction of old red blood cells and holding a reservoir of blood. Until recently, the purpose of the spleen was unknown. It is now increasingly recognized that its absence leads to a predisposition to certain infections. it serves the purpose of filtering thoughts. Brain waves are sent directly to your spleen, which filters out unawesome thoughts, and sends back the resulting pure awesome directly to your mouth.

Looks like we have a consensus here.

The liver makes the urea, the kidney's filter it out. I just over simplified cause I work with complete idiots and am in that habit.

I have a habit of doing that as well. Sometimes, you can make it more entertaining that way.

*sniffle* hehe. Well i've been plotting for quite some time now and my evil plan is this:
Stare rather angrilly(but not too angrily cos i don't won't to be mean... no angrily cos that's the point,) at the person who stole my spleen then run away laughing. I think that will do... Hmmm, blast! Me no good at hatching evil plans...
Maybe i'll just do nothing... Yes! do nothing cos i can't be bothered that spleen probs long gone now newho *sniffle sniffle*.
