    Oh dude - if ever there was a video with equal amounts of cringing and laughing, this was it!
  • Tyler Braun · 2 years ago
    That was sweet. awesome video

    Thought #5 is a new favorite quote for me. My wife's response -- "Men are such babies!"
  • loswhit · 2 years ago
    Bradley. Tell her yes. We are.

    ROFL......nothing like living life vicariously through Carlos...you are the man...no ...wait....you are half the man or man-half....oh shoot, I think you know what I mean....HAHAHAHAHA

    Oh here's a thought...when you go hang out now do you hang out half the time you used to....

    Stirrups. Wow. I didn't realize stirrups were going to be involved. Stirrups are ok if they are the John Wayne kind. . . But the snip snip kind aren't near as manly.
  • ryan fitzgerald · 2 years ago
    classic... for real...
  • jeff · 2 years ago
    can you imagine how awkward it would've been if he said yes and showed up while you were producing / singing / etc.

    i imagine it like this....

    [just finished singing a set and LOS notices the doc...]

    LOS: welcome to buckhead church... hey doctor! what's up bro? my boys are healing fine, thanks to you!

    doc: umm...
  • Danielle · 2 years ago
    Oh hands-down one of the best video montages you've done. It truly made me laugh out loud!! And, it was educational ;)
  • Chris Baker · 2 years ago
    Man your video cracks me up...to bad next week the movie "Balls of Fury" is being released and it wasn't this past week...that would have been timely :)
  • Crystal Renaud · 2 years ago
    all i hear is a bunch of drama. haha.

    ;)
  • JTCrespo · 2 years ago
    "You Got Served!" when Heather said she didn't see this much sympathy or a appreciation video for what she had to go through.
  • Michael Farren · 2 years ago
    dude! i made the mistake of letting my wife watch this...she now adores your wife an now I am back in the fricken hot seat over this whole little snip snip thing...somehow all of my reasons for not getting snipped are holding no water for a woman who has had two emergency c-sections...you've ruined my perfect rainy Saturday afternoon...thanks! hilarious video by the way.
  • alexsandra · 2 years ago
    your wife is awesome, I love the symbolic sewing

    great choice of music, the soundtrack to your life

    classic ragamuffin without a doubt

    On stirrups...I have a friend who was going through the same procedure, and while in the vulnerable stirrups, the nurse came in to "prep". He was trying not to make eye contact during her small talk when she exclaimed that she recognized him and that he was, in fact, her neighbor. What a small world.
  • Larry Boatright · 2 years ago
    I've had so many conversations with guys about the snippy-snip... other than my "complications" (no, I'm not a woman now) it was a great move.

    I'd love to jaw sometime about your adoption process.

    Still loving your job?

    Blessings!

    Carlos, only YOU would wear tight jeans for this day. You now live in GA - sweats are best for this type of procedure.

    :)
  • Scott · 2 years ago
    stirrups...i'm sorry
  • Ronni · 2 years ago
    Yeah so where IS Heathers video? I mean TWO CHILDREN...

    Okay compare this pain with that of passing something the size of a watermelon...

    TWICE....

    And she will be much healthier not on the pill... and um... more freedom... *ahem*

    LOL...

    I can't believe you videoed this... and the music selection had me rolling!
  • shan · 2 years ago
    love the songs you picked for this video...congratulations (i guess that's what one would say?) :)
  • Rachel · 2 years ago
    I just laughed so hard, several times. :) The song changes, and the way you struggled to close the car door. haha

    I'm convinced you and your family would make a great sitcom. Like the Ozbournes...but not at all.
  • Loran · 2 years ago
    2 of the you tube video's that came up after yours were actual procedure!!!! Yikes!
  • robin · 2 years ago
    First of all, I hope I get to meet your wife someday. Secondly, the music choices were perfect. Great video.
  • ernest · 2 years ago
    I hope my wife doesn't see this blog...she's been on me to get this done for a while...
  • Rachael Ensom France · 2 years ago
    Carlos,
    I laughed my BUTT off at this video! This is great!
  • Pearmama · 2 years ago
    Stirrups.are.evil.

    Did the doc ask you to scootch your butt all the way to the end of the table? Then did he insert a cold metal object into your nether regions? Yeh. Didn't think so! ;)

    Take care of your boys, homie.
  • Jesse Holden · 2 years ago
    Dude, thank you for having a sense of humor about it all, and you played my jam at the end. HA! Hilarious. Well, that's it....just shootin' blanks now.
  • Renee Garcia · 2 years ago
    OK that was awesome! LOL The song at the end really got me though! LOL Glad you're doing ok!!!
  • Jamon*Abercrombie · 2 years ago
    dude, me and my doc were just chatting away. not really much pain either.

    you had stirrups? man, i got jipped!

    in the pre-snip interview, doc asked if there was anything i was nervous about. i told him i just didn't want to care that it was going on. his prescription ... drink a sixer an hour before you come in!

    Jen (the wife) didn't like that, so doc gave me some happy pills, and i couldn't have cared less where i was or what was happening.

    just wait at least a week before playing full court basketball ... not two days (like me) ouch.
  • mrs. bear · 2 years ago
    Thank you Pearmama!!! I was beginning to think no women were going to call him out on the stirrups thing. Remember Carlos, your wife has to assume that position for her doctor every year! You've got nothin' on us women!!!
  • David M. Coe · 2 years ago
    Carlos...

    You are one crazy dude.
    Who else does a video documentary of their big V?
    I tried to quit you a long time ago, but found that I just could not look away!

    I loved the soundtrack.
  • ScW · 2 years ago
    Wow... talk about being transparent on the web. My family is so private, that just telling my dad over the phone (that was I going to have it done) was considered Too Much Information.

    I had mine done 2 weeks ago... didn't go as well as yours... maybe it was the lack of stirrups... not sure. As for talking... we discussed you and your uploading of the State of California video and also the Braves starting pitching now that Glavine is back... it seemed like a manly thing to talk about.
  • Phillip · 2 years ago
    Well, I'm glad yours was painless. I got snipped a couple of years ago and it sucked! It felt like he was trying to pull my liver out or something.
  • Paul · 2 years ago
    Dude that's classic! I can't believe you invited your surgeon to church while he was snippin' around your boys! That's commitment. Maybe you've discovered a new method of evangelism. Perfect song to end by the way. "I'm not have the man I used to be..." Awesome!
  • Brian Seay · 2 years ago
    Stirrups? Your doc was into some weird stuff. When I had my little procedure I made the entire family leave town, I drove myself to and from the hospital, and watched manly movies for 3 days. Just me, the bag of peas, and some Bruce Willis.

    I have a good friend in Austin and his Uroligist's name was Dr. Dick Chopp. Not made up (the name or the story). Look it up.
  • Aaron · 1 year ago
    Loved the music behind the video.

    And the wife cutting sticthes in the crotch of your jeans in the waiting room? So wrong, dude. So wrong.

    "How are the boys, or girls, what are they now?" BEST LINE EVAR!!1!
  • Bootgun · 1 year ago
    Dude, just found your blog for the very first time, nice digs man. I am about to embark on the vasectomy journey myself, who was your Doc?
  • Brad Ruggles · 1 year ago
    lol...one of the funniest things I've seen this week! Been there...done that. It's not fun, but the end result is!! :-)

    I just got to see this video for the first time thanks to heathers link to it. AHAHAHAHAHAHA I love your video blogs this one made me laugh pretty hard. The eye of tiger song into michelle williams and half the man i use to be was clasic. Way to go for doing that Chris wants me to go get my tubes tied it's a heated debate lol.
    Well hope you're still doing well.
  • Lisa @ put-it-on-the-list · 1 year ago
    OK, so here's my hubby's vasectomy story (retold often):

    He insisted it was fine for him to drive himself to and from the doc. On the way home, with an ice pack in his lap, he was pulled over from speeding.

    By a male cop.

    Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but if EVER there's a time to try to talk your way out of a ticket, this is it. All you have to do is utter the phrase, "I just want to get home before the local wears off," and the nice policeman is gonna let you go home. After he cringes.

    But no. Hubby took the ticket. And he's never lived it down.
