Don't take my word for it, but I've heard about this. A friend of a friend (as it's usually the case) had to have it done twice because apparently every 5 or 6 years the tube does fix itself.

This is why they don't just cut & cauterize anymore. They also put titanium clamps on the ends of the cut tubes.

My mouth has been pinned in a disgusted look this entire time and yet I've read each post. I can't watch any hospital shows and I once had a nurse tell me I shouldn't be so nervous. You know what, I'll be nervous if I want to, ok?

Has anyone heard of condoms? I heard they don't involve surgery.

They also fail 3% of the time, every time.

If you're done with having kids and trust that your partner(s) won't be infecting you with STIs, who the hell wants to use condoms, especially when an easy, relatively painless procedure is available.

You mean finger -> butt? It's not entirely painless.

You're right...it depends on whether your top is in a nice mood or in a "you're going to take it" mood.

You do understand I'm saying condoms fail 3% of the time, right? Not vasectomies.

Sorry, I should've quoted one post higher.

I have problems with novacaine/lidocaine that I thought were only related to my mouth (dentists have to inject massive amounts) until I got the snip snip. I learned they apply to "down there" as I nearly fell off the table when the procedure began. After the doc made a few more injections and waited 5-10 minutes, things went fine.

I have the same issue, last time I went to the dentists I needed 3 shots before he could do one filling. No looking forward to getting snipped if the issue translates to down there.

No problem. I figured that's what happened.

Dan: I didn't watch it

[GWJ] FedoraMcQuaid: all the swelling and pushing around by the doctor made him LOOK pretty big
[GWJ] Bad Mojo: Maybe the doctor was a midget with tiny hands?
Kurrelgyre [GWJ]: Hey, you know you don't really need to discuss it, right?
[GWJ] Bad Mojo: Are you saying a midget can't be a doctor?
[GWJ] I ate a baby: they make great proctologists

[GWJ] FedoraMcQuaid: true story

I'm so glad i'm at uni and dailymotion is blocked (no idea why, youtube's not), because I just had to click the damn link...

MUST NOT LOOK AT THREAD AT HOME!

Wikipedia quotes (from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) a failure rate for breakage at 0.4% - 2.4% and a slippage rate of 0.6% - 1.3%. Even at a failure rate of 2.4% for each use, the actual viable conception period for a women is only a few days a month. For conception, you'd need a condom failure, to be in the conception window, for the woman and the man to both produce viable reproductive cells, and then for the rest of the fertilization process to go smoothly. If you want to conceive, it's recommended to 'try' every other day for a week during the possible viable window. The wait and frequency allows for production of a large enough number of reproductive cells. Obviously, people vary.

Is it a fool-proof method? No, but the failure rate is very very low. It looks like the surgery is also not a fool proof method, but also has low failure rates.

...and you don't have to use a damn condom. I think that's the point.

Besides that, the facts are that sperm can live inside a woman's body for up to a week or so, and every woman's body is different. You might know how they're "supposed" to work, but unless you've gone mad scientist and created your date to work like you want... you have no idea when she'll get pregnant.

What's important is how things are supposed to work!

Babies are a myth anyway.

You have a daily dick quotient? Talk about being prepared for anything!

I saw a vasectomy on television about 15 years ago and it's STILL in my head. I think I'll pass on clicking that link.

Also, I wonder how many vasectomies that doctor had to film until he got one right?

Anyone who's ever gotten interested in anime and looked for more stuff online has felt the curse of What Has Been Seen. I'm actually proud of myself for having the discipline to not click on that link. That little red link. Just sitting there. Waiting to be clicked. Asking to be clicked. Begging to be clicked. You want me to click you. Don't you?

I have to go.

Oh, how long can trusty Cadet Grenn hold out?!
How can he possibly resist the diabolical urge to click the link that could alter his very existence?!
Will his tortured mind give in to it's uncontrollable desires?!
Can he withstand the temptation to click the link, that even now, beckons him ever closer?!
Will he succumb to the maddening urge to poison his mind, at the mere click of a single link?!
The beautiful shiny link!
The jolly candy-like link!
Will he hold out, folks?!
Can he hold out?!?!

Great reference.

Next time on... mudbunnyBall Z!

What sucks is that the Dr refuses all cell-phones, iPods, etc in the OR. I was so going to be twittering my snippage, solely for the amusement of others.

Next, on an all-new Ow My Balls!

Wait, OR? Mine was in a doctor's office, in and out in under an hour. Are they doing it under anesthesia or something?

No, that was just a typo on my part. He calls the room where he does this his OR. It is only in his office under local.

The cool thing, he uses a jet injector to do the anaesthesia. Or, as we geeks know it, a hypo-spray.

Also, I listened to the Smodcast episode. Holy crap is it funny. Incredibly vulgar, but funny.

Wait, mine was in a garbage-strewn alley. Also when I woke up, my kidneys were missing. Did I do something wrong?

Yup. You were supposed to wake up in a bathtub of ice, with a note saying that you should call the doctor...

But it was a doctor that did it to me in the first place. At least his Craigslist ad said he was a doctor. "I'M A REAL DOCTOR!" it promised. Most licenses are written in crayon, right?

Was it Dr. Tran? I have it on good authority that he isn't even a real doctor.
