What the hell is the point of circumcision?

plz explain. Is it like emo cutting? Does it make you look cool? Should I try and circumcize myself? Am I spelling it right? Or am I asking too many questions?

There are actually quite a few Europeans who are circumcisised, me being one of them. I'd say that two out of five at my gym are circumsized, judging from what we can see in the communal showers.
