Tell me my friend, why does your bellybutton aka navel hurt? I have never heard of such, unless all your talk of children/cute baby animals is making you feel a little pregnant? Or has you Joy of the liquid libations caused a belly extending thus looking like you are pregnant producing a protrusion of your “pupik.”🫃🏻In either case, I think there comes a time we have to think about the child that has old parents and all the jokes they will endure. Do you really want to go there? BTW-you do have quite the menagerie of wild life to admire….and they are all so cute!🐇🦌🦊🦆

I think I am a little pregnant...with ideas! Yuk, yuk, yuk. I do love my animals, though.

So after reading the tortuous account of your belated circumcision (which still makes me weep for you), perhaps the person who did this was a closet advocate for climate change mitigation, who has decided simply to reduce human reproduction one penis at a time?

Is it Gen X wisdom, to not have babies? Assuming here, your friends were born in the 70s as well. Nice photos.

We're the first generation that gave up on everything.
