A Newsvine True Story! – Me and My Testicles

News Type: Other — Thu Jun 28, 2007 12:09 AM EDT

health, children, beer, sperm, stud, hung, vasectomy, silly-and-stupid, awesomeness, hallucination

I'm so embarrassed. I had to be a testicle stand-in, and it's the only picture I have of them.

Because I expect everyone on Newsvine to be excited about my testicles, I am making this oh-so-private procedure public: I, bigfatdrunk, will be getting a vasectomy soon.

Now, I'm sure you are saying to yourself, "WTF, why do I care about this?" Everybody cares about my testicles. Everybody. If you deny, you are only kidding yourself about the wonderful awesomeness that are my testicles.

I have to admit that this "procedure" is scaring me. I have spread my seed far and wide, once a little too far, and now it's the end. It's over. I have a wife. I have a son. I have a daughter. Yet, my testicles are sad. All women – that's right, looking at you, babe – should experience my swimmers. Please allow me to let Elijah Dukes' friend speak for me:

"'I want you to have my baby' and he follows that up with 'Can I be your first baby daddy?'"
--Elijah Dukes' ex-wife NeShea Gilbert, on his pickup line.

Y'all should be so lucky. My testicles have helped create two of the most beautiful children in existence (and if I ever meet the real father, I will so kick his ass). This is your last chance, Viners: my testicles will expire shortly. BUY NOW! It's our last chance.

I'll be coming to a theater near you soon, but it just won't matter.

XOXOXOXOX,

BFD

What's this?

Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

I can't believe you have the balls to publish this. :-)

Good luck with the op.

This was fun to write.

I had been pondering writing something up since I decided to get the thing done. I hope to remember to do a follow-up, and it will be my intention to make it as absolutely class-less as this one.

VIVA MIS TESTICLES!

Of course we care, BFD! Thanks for sharing. Do you suppose you could have the doctor take some photographs and write an article later detailing the procedure?

;)

Good luck. By the way, frozen peas and corn in plastic bags make great, um, ice bags for the affected area.

I'll see if I can get someone to pose with them with a thumbs up or something. That would be sweet, though I'm pretty sure that would break the Newsvine code. Or good taste. What. Ev. Er.

Thanks for the advice. What's funny is I just had major surgery on another body part, but I'm willing to talk about the vasectomy and not the other one. Point being, I've currently got ice packs a-plenty, and that includes a big ole' bag of frozen corn. Never to be eaten. Ever.

lol! My husband made me put the frozen peas and corn back in the freezer after, um, using them, but I took a Sharpie and wrote "USED TO LOWER SWELLING ON TESTES" on the bags. I just keep pushing them further back into the freezer.

'Course, he gets revenge by writing "DIRTY SWEAT SOCKS" on my packages of goat cheese, but it's not even close to the same thing.

Good luck. It's not as bad as it sounds.

Yeah, right, like I would make you pay. of course, as with everyone else I've "known," you would lose substantial chunks of your soul and sanity. That's probably a high enough price.

(PS: Congrats on graduating!)

A friend got a vasectomy a few years ago and wrote about it. He also drew little pictures which were pleasantly adapted to new images.

Working for urologists I see guys waiting for procedures most days in the lobby or back area. One thing most have in common is a 'why am I here look', a wife holding their hand or at least sitting between them and the door, and a baby stroller with the reason for the whole event. Our office gives them a Valium when they check in, it really cut back on the walkouts I heard.

They're putting me on...let's see here...Xanax. Just one??? BASTARDS! I'm gonna bring a cooler full of beer, too.

My wife totally wigged last night. "Are you sure?" We live in a two bedroom house I don't ever plan on leaving. Yes, two kids is enough.

Depending on the strength, a Xanax should make you not care if they sliced your balls off with a butter knife.

Interestingly enough, I didn't have the "Are you sure" moment. Maybe that's because I was too busy dragging a whimpering man through a parking lot and shoving him through the door of the doctor's office.
