I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Just don't go on OK Cupid on your birthday.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Happy birthday omnis! May it be filled with that thing you like.

Happy Birthday omnis!

So, i went to dancing, and wasn't feeling it, and had this invite to a birthday party from this girl I know (but not well), and decided WTF, I'd go hit up her birthday. But then I drive all the way to West Seattle, and the bar is (a) mad sketch, and (b) all parked up. It had a tiny parking lot, but then was the only thing around on a busy road, so it's not like I could just park down the street. So I drove past it twice, and decided to chicken out and come home early. Sigh. I was hoping there'd be cute girls there to flirt with, but...

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

This may be TMI, but I've been wanting breast reduction surgery for years, and will probably be in a solid financial place next year (within 18 months) to be able to at least finance the procedure, if not just pay it on a very low interest card from my credit union.

I don't have any idea how to begin researching a surgeon, here. I mean, I'm in the plastic surgery capital o' the world. There seems to be thousands of them.

It's possible that my insurance will pay for some if not all, but I'm also concerned about scaring, and would like them lifted. I'm unsure if my insurance will pay for anything more than a cheap reduction to relieve pain in my back and neck.

I understand that there will be some scarring, as well as a possible loss of sensitivity. I'm not going to be having children, so breast feeding issues aren't a concern.

How does one research a good surgeon. I don't need a rock star overpriced boutique surgeon, just a good one. How do I know if I'm talking to a butcher?

What sort of requirements exist for plastic surgeons?

All I know about plastic surgeons is that you want someone who is Board certified. And I would think you'd want someone who was trained as a surgeon first and foremost, not a dermatologist or some other related but not surgical specialty.

A friend of mine had a double masectomy with reconstruction last year. I could ask her about how she found her plastic surgeon. Have you asked your primary care doctor? If you like and trust your doctor, that's where I'd start.
