Well, the first and foremost reason I'd ever jump off a cliff has been rendered null. As of 11:45 am yesterday, I have been disconnected. Yep kiddos, I will never again hear the words "we need to talk" or "my period is late" or "your going to be a daddy". And I never have to debate with whoever I am dating that I never want to have kids....because it is a moot point....you'll just have to like me for ME! Not my incredibly desireable reproductive capabilities (kidding), and you can never trap me with the old pinhole-in-the-condom/ "I-forgot-to-take-my-birth-control" trick. All I can say is yipee kiyay mutherfarkers! Adios to the swimmers!
And to all you men out there who are rightfully jealous (as you should be) of my newfound infertility, and wondering how bad it is......there is nothing to it all. 15 minutes in and out, slight discomfort afterwards, and by the next day, just a little lingering pain and swelling (wow do I have cajones). But for some reason I can't wipe this $hit-eating grin off of my face today. I feel like telling everyone, everywhere I go. You know, I am standing in the line at the grocery store biting my lip to keep from turning to the guy behind me with the screaming, smelly little rugrat, and saying "you know, there are ways to prevent that?, hell, I just did it yesterday." But since I can't do that, I thought I'd do it here. I now can be assured that when my youngest child reaches the ripe old age of 18, I can fly off to some frigid snow covered land and be a ski bum for the rest of my life and never touch a dirty diaper again!
Bwahahahahahahahahaha!

Not to rain on your parade, I know 2 different people whose vasectomies didn't take. Furthermore, just because you are presumably sterile doesn't mean you shouldn't use condoms.

Of course, no refunds! Just pay the doctor as many times as it takes him/her to get it right.

Congrats on snipping your manhood.

Not really.

So does this mean we should look forward to your future herpes thread?

Just remember to do your homework when the doctor tells you to, to make sure it all worked ok.

People who have conceived after a vasectomy obviously skipped this step.

Congrats I guess! Are there people who are happy you won't be contributing to the gene pool?

so true, I have known a few women to whom having their tubes tied led to hysterectomies...bad juju!

I thought you were coming out of the closet until the end there.
Hahaha! Actually the procedure was done in a room the size of a closet!

That's the truth brotha, I will go through my required # of emmisions and then take a sample in. I suspect the "not taking" vasectomies had somehing to do with not clearing the pipes first. You should SEE the size jar they give you to bring a sample back in! Luckily I am in a relationship with a clean partner, therefor once I get the go-ahead, condoms are history, and herpes is a non issue.

Are there people who are happy you won't be contributing to the gene pool?
Yep! Me, myself, and I! Besides, I have already made 2 contributuions to the gene pool.

One of each?

Well at least you had some offspring before tying the knots. I haven't .. not sure if I plan on it. The world can only handle one of me at a time.

I'm probably going to go through the same thing as the wife and I don't want any surprises.

Had it done 5 years ago.. 'course, I'm married so I don't ned to worry about the condom thing.
Well done, pal.

It's not a huge deal to get it done. But, I'll admit, the drive home did indeed suck..

It does help with the "spontaneity" aspect of the relationship...

i thought i read some stories in the past year linking vasectomies with a type of dementia? i think some scientist just noticed a correlation, but no significant studies yet.
