      Libs hate these and insist on using woke, forward pointing guns. They want to make these more manly guns illegal and force us to buy their pathetic “aimable” guns. Check your local gunshop. They’ll insist they don’t even sell these and never heard of them. The NRA is in on it.

    Extremely large projects/organizations. Say, major infrastructure, or a large mercenary force or a network of nonprofit hospitals or something.

    The real costs are in future maintenance, not up-front acquisition, so you really don’t want more than you need.

      I got a vasectomy two weeks ago. It still hurts and I’m kind of panicking now, thinking what if it stays like this for the rest of my life. So I need to call the doctor back soon to check what’s up, but I’ve been holding it off for fear that they’ll need to open me up again.

      So yeah, can confirm. I’m worrying at this very moment that I’ll get a second one for free.

        Call and check with your doctor if it feels wrong, but it was a full month before I didn’t hurt just day to day, and another full month before sports were fully comfortable again.

        Everyone is different, and I couldn’t tell you if it’s really normal or not, but it really does take a while for everything to go back to truly pain free.

          Thanks for these comments. I’m going in to get cut in a month, and knowing these expectations will help me understand what’s going on.

      So. Fun story. We ordered a king size bedroom set online. I’m talking king size frame, two side tables, a dresser, and a chest. The order got “lost” somehow. After some calls to customer service, they sent out another set. Fast forward a few weeks, we had not one, not two, but THREE KING SIZE SETS OF FURNITURE sitting in our driveway. The store didn’t want them back, and we ended up selling two of the sets. But man, figuring out where to store all of that was a fun time.

      The funeral home offers 2-for-1 on the caskets, but the tombstones only come in a club back of three

      Don’t get me started on the offerings for side-by-side plots, it’s cheaper just to get a mass grave if you’re buying in bulk

      That was my first thought too, but I could see a practical married couple jumping at that deal.

      Therefore, I’ll one up you with child-size coffins.

      Two power naps for the price of one? Don’t mind if I do. But seriously, I couldn’t go through prep twice. If the surgeon lost his watch in there and needs to do it again then by all means.

        I also hate going through prep. Not being able to eat normal food is bad enough, and now I need to down cups and cups of this sickening liquid reminiscent of burnt plastic?

        if the surgeon lost his watch in there

        Are you implying that the surgeon once stuck his fist into your anus?

          I was never awake so I don’t know if this happens regularly.

          Yeah, the prep is the worst. I’m weak and feel sick pretty much all the time and now I can’t even eat. And all that wiping… Jeeez.

      Depends on if it’s a credit to redeemed later or an immediate thing…

      …or like “start prepping the moment you get home for the next one” sort of thing…

      Could be pretty okay if you need regular colonoscopy, or it could be Hell; depends on the timing.

      I disagree. A pre-paid package deal like that is good value. Plan ahead so your loved ones dont have to make a bunch of rushed decsions during a difficult time.

    We’ve got a few surgeries here (if that’s a thing you buy where you live, anyway), but nobody’s mentioned amputations, which would have to be the worst.
