Kids

[Katpappy]

I pretty much never figured it out

Who are you kidding?  Didn't you live there since you had family at KSU?

I think regardless of background, big hs school/little hs school, city, town, farm we all acquired the underlying skill sets growing up to rise to the challenge of college.

Marlatt might as well of been a Greek house.  It comes down to who you align yourself with, who you want to model your behavior after, who you find beneficial in your network.

I had no brothers, but I did have a neighbor I grew up with who went to kstate 2 years before I arrived. When I got there he let me hang around with his circle, which helped me immensely because they were all pretty serious about school. Several of those early acquaintances are still friends today.

Marching band provided access to another social network with the added benefit of being co-ed.  My wife and I marched beside each other.

100%. That's another reason I'm a big proponent of college. It was the greek system for me, but it's the same idea if you have other groups to go to and be a part of. That's a biggie for me and why I definitely want my kids to go to college. I'd be fine if they came up with a good plan otherwise, but for me it was being around different people and learning from them moreso than what I learned in classes. I'd be a wildly different person right now if I hadn't met and learned about so many different people with different experiences and backgrounds.

My oldest kid is going to new student orientation at KSU this morning. This is really hard to wrap my head around.

I like to travel pretty much constantly.  Kids seem like they put a damper on that.  Also, drinking, I'm not a drunkard but like to drink and run off to do so quit a bit.  Plus, work, I work a lot of hours.  What will benefit from kids?  I'm just not seeing it.  You know?

This was a hilarious thing to stumble upon on the first page.

Anyways guys, had my two, I'm done, and I'm getting neutered next week. Is this where we ask about that? I heard that these days you're awake the whole time. Like, wtf?

Yeah, you’re awake. A lot play like AC/DC in the room while they do it. It’s pud. You won’t even limp out. Just keep rotating bags of frozen peas & corn for a couple days.

My doctor said “wait a week, then knock one out 20 times, then bring us a sample in this jar to make sure you’re good. So it’ll be a month before you can freestyle consequence free.”

I know someone who put up a star chart with 20 spaces on their fridge.

Surgery itself sucked but didn't last long, and then you're just off your feet for a couple days (second day feels a little unnecessary, but probably still smart to heal up). My only advice is try to avoid working afterwards, even if you got a pud desk job. Sending a couple emails from the couch was way more painful/annoying than I expected. Otherwise recovery is a breeze.

3yo: daddy why is there white stuff in your beard (referring to gray hairs)
me: because i'm getting old
3yo: are you going to be dead soon?

I made the mistake of scheduling it for 4:30pm on a Thursday. And I already don't work on Fridays much if ever. Missed opportunity.

get yourself a snug fitting jock strap! i wore normal athletic underwear the first couple days after and i think it didn't have nearly the support i needed. ended up with a hematoma/swelling issue.

Do your balls shrink when you get the snip, like steroid and TRT guys (not hating, Mike)?

Are there health benefits to getting the snip?

There’s always outliers, but I think as the surgery is drawn up, it has basically zero noticeable impacts other than an inability to get ladies pregnant.

I was a little nervous going in to mine but it was completely pud. Surgery doesn't hurt (just slightly awkward), doc had golf on the TV in the room when I had mine. I feel like it was a major but can't remember.

I never had any real pain. For a minute I thought they had just pretended to do the surgery because I felt nothing. Then on day 3 I had a little discomfort getting in and out of my car but that was it. I know everyone's is different but mine was 5 stars would recommend.

Don't do it, let nature decide for you on when you are done being fertile.

horrible advice

Considering our two kids are less than 15 months apart, I think that would be a very expensive experiment.

what happens to your seminal vesicles during this supposed “surgery”?

Depends. Choosing the right surgeon makes a vas deferens.
