The quote is the set-up to the punchline of a joke. The word's meaning
is clear. The question is whether anyone has ever come across the term
elsewhere. The situation entails a wronged husband giving directions
to a hit-man:

"I want you to shoot my cheating wife in the head. The guy, I want him
alive, but
can you shoot his _todger_ off?"

All say, "How hard it is that we have to die"---a strange complaint to
come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
