It's comforting to know that after their somewhat amusing "Rom Com" article yesterday, Cracked has returned to its unfunny form.

How is removing a rib a "product"?

I say the Epilady should take its spot in the list.



The springs rotate and yank hair out.

Came for the Epilady shaver.

Leaving satisfied.

I had a girlfriend that used one of those and I gotta sasy they are NOT torture.

I never felt a thing.

Maybe you've even considered going under the knife, because it'd be nice to be free of the fat and not have to, you know, do a bunch of sit-ups or whatever.


Yeah, that's not going to do anything for your fat.

I never tried it. But one year an aunt got one for Grandma for Christmas. Everyone was afraid to try it, so my mom chided my dad into manning up. (Dad was a big, burly, he-man, great white hunter type but was a huge baby inside). They touched it to his forearm, he yelled, "Jesus Christ, Barbara!!!" and his hair didn't grow back for three months in that spot.

Diogenes: I never tried it.

Neither did I. That was my point :)

I'll do it for free honey.. I'll do it for free

can someone help a brother out?

I actually dated someone for 6 months who had the leg lengthening surgery. The first couple of weeks we were seeing each other something was just physically off about him but I couldn't put my finger on it. Then it occurred to me that his arms were too short of his height. Then we started sleeping together and I noticed these 2 matching really huge scars on both his legs but I didn't want to say anything as I didn't know if he was self conscious about these. Finally, a month and half into it I asked and yup. He had the surgery. Was out of school for a year to get that done when he was a kid, only to be about as tall as me.

But for a little guy he was much blessed in another area of his pants.

Psycoholic_Slag: No stiletto heels?

FAIL

Stilettos are fine. It's the 5" and greater heights that can be torture.



/What?
//Wearing 4.5" heels now

Psycoholic_Slag: No stiletto heels?

FAIL

odd, right as you posted that, these lyrics came through my music:

i'm just gonna dance all night
i'm all messed up, i'm so outta line
stilettos and broken bottles,
i'm spinnin' around in circles
i'm in the corner, watching you kiss her, oh..
i'm right over here, why can't you see me, oh..
i'm giving it my all, but i'm not the girl your taking home, ooohh..
i keep dancing on my own

animal900: Dow Jones and the Temple of Doom: /What?
//Wearing 4.5" heels now

Good god. What's the appeal?

Makes you taller and gives your calves a more toned appearance.

At least I cheat and wear platform pumps. I'm not at the severe angles that a real 4.5" heel would be. I've tried 6" heels on, and holy hell, how do women do it?!

animal900: Diogenes: They touched it to his forearm, he yelled, "Jesus Christ, Barbara!!!" and his hair didn't grow back for three months in that spot.

Oh please, it's no different than a waxing or plucking. I only wish my wife's, ahem, waxings lasted anywhere near 3 months at $50 a pop.

Like I said, he's quite the baby when it comes to pain or sickness. Despite external appearances.

That's a typical man for you.

I keed, I keed.

Millennium: The leg-lengthening surgery might actually have some useful applications on people with leg length discrepancies. Yeah, I'd probably still class it as torture, but just pointing out that this one isn't necessarily just a beauty product.

My ex still had a hospital bed in his parents house that he had to live in for about a year of his life. He had to go through the excruciating cranking of the rod every day, he couldn't walk on his legs and he ended up having to go through months of physical therapy after all was said and done. Oh, and he was 6 when he got this done.

My mom just had to have her hip replaced. Undiagnosed scoliosis caused one of her legs to be shorter (sort of). Coupled with arthritis she ground the ball flat. They made her legs equal as part of the replacement.

Transkaren: They didn't mention Facial Feminization Surgery (crush the bones to reshape them), Tracheal Shave (Nice voice box you have there, let's just take a little off the sides..) or Orchiectomy (Orchi- is testicles, -ectomy is removal ... and that noise right there is the simultaneous closing of the legs of every male TFer).

In all honesty, the rib resection is on my todo list if I ever get millions of dollars.

If it was free and painless (magic!), I wouldn't mind softening my jawline/chin a bit. But I'm sure I'd always find something to nit pick, anyways.

I'm disagreeing with the 3 months aspect, not the personality traits of a man I've never met.

Well, it's a moot point anyway. Not long after he was in an industrial explosion and lost all of it for a year. That and alot of skin.

Now think of this: bikini area.

When you recover you can give me a mental image equally as revolting/terrifying.

Seemingly counter-intuitive, until you consider that people are pussies and aren't stupid enough to force the giant bear-kid to fight them.

Most naturally-burly, hairy men weren't beat up when they were (big) little, and thus don't have much experience with pain, unless their profession requires it.

Diogenes: I say the Epilady should take its spot in the list.

GOD yes. I mean, I've got a high pain tolerance. Tattoos and bikini waxes don't even make me blink, but I lasted about 5 seconds with the Epilady. I swear that thing was designed by Nazi doctors.

This text is now purple: KatjaMouse: I've tried 6" heels on, and holy hell, how do women do it?!

Women wearing 6" heels spent most of their time on their back.

In 6" heels, I can just about make it from the front door to the bed. Which is just about as far as I need to go anyway.
