Well the wife has got her new twins three weeks ago and she is very happy, she went from a small A to a full B.
I wanted to send before and after picks but she said " NO " not only " NO " but F@#% NO!!!! so ya all just have
to take my word for it. Must tell ya it's like buying fine china! you spend all the money for the good stuff and
never get to eat off them!!!!!!

Can't wait to break them in!!:cheesygrin::cheesygrin::cheesygrin:

    Have some respect for yourself and your wife. Christ. Is this seriously more appropriate than guns or politics?

    I am sorry for posting this thread. My wife was sitting beside me when I wrote it, she as myself never thought it would be taken so negative. What I wrote was the same thing we joke about with family and friends, I think of you
    all as friends ( I guess a little too much)

    I do have great respect for my wife and myself , just never thought it would offend you all so much!:sad:

    With that being said I am sorry.

    lol, I have no problem whatsoever with your post. It's obviously not a big deal to you or your wife, and it shouldn't be a big deal to anyone else either. It's a fun new thing; that's what the Clubhouse is for: fun things. In fact, your post is much more appropriate for a Clubhouse atmosphere than a lot of the negative crap that gets posted here.

    Congrats on the new toys!:biggrin:

                            I don't see anything wrong with the post.  While reconstructive surgery is sometimes done for cancer patients, I suspect a large part of the surgery is done for cosmetic purposes.  The entire intent is for public visual consumption.  While a stranger can look, but not say anything, I would expect friends or co-workers to say things like "You look different.  New haircut?".

                            I find this thread kinda weird, but seeing we talk about vasectomies around here too, what the heck.
