Scroti. As in a collection of Scrotums.

Collecting heads may be horrific, but justified when the heads are sufficiently hollow. However, I have no desire to see your collection.

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Only in Oz are Scroti large enough to sail in.
And that's only because a spider bit them while trying to kill you ...

Wrong answer - a load of bollocks in fact... And it's scrota, not scroti. And now a search for "scrota" is in my internet search history as I do like to double-check.

small boat = TUG
water = H2O, or HOH
T__UG
_HO__H
small boat disturbs water, nonetheless = THOUGH
... in my defence, I have seen people using element symbols before, and H2O is a pretty common term for water.
I'm up again tomorrow then?

H2O is a term for water but I've not seen HOH ?

Well, HHO would probably be fine, and "disturbs" works as an anagram identified anyway so the order of HOH doesn't really matter...
very tough clue though nonetheless
|
|

Never thought of TUG ... got the H2O but missed the boaty bit...
Yes, you are up tomorrow!

I have been doing this for a long time now, and I cannot tell you how many programming articles I have read. I have also worked with really good programmers from all over the world, so I have a good feel for speech patterns from different parts of the world. Lately, I have found myself reading articles in the voice and accent that I assume the author to have. This might be a defensive technique I have developed to maintain the technical integrity of an article in the face of (sometimes badly) broken English.

I had a natural tendency to mimic the accent of someone I was talking to, face to face. It began when I started traveling lots, and meeting people with significantly different accents.
Fortunately, as I repeatedly caught myself doing it, and became more aware of it, I was able to suppress it.

I have done the same with this post but no it is still incomprehensible.

Most frogs can't live in sea water: there is a saltwater frog - The Crab Eating Frog of south Asia - but it's habitat is mangrove swamps and "brackish water", and can only survive brief excursions into the sea.
