Because I’m that guy: “hanged”
(disclaimer: language is a fluid construct, talk however you want, there’s no one “right” way to speak, some of us just enjoy being pedantic assholes)

Because I’m also that guy: both are correct.
It’s true that you should only used hanged to refer to hanging a person, but it’s not incorrect to use hung in that case.

I don’t, I care about the language as it exists today.
Nah hung is right. Matt just took some penis enlargement pills.
Too soon?
