The following is the content of an auction that was (quite justifiably) pulled from eBay after about a day. I was asleep when it got pulled, so I have no idea if it received any bids, nor how many hits it got.

So you’ve decided not to breed.

A wise choice – just ask anyone.

But sterilization surgeries can be costly. And think of the risk!

There must be a way to remove yourself from the gene pool without the inconvenience of visiting a licensed medical professional.

Eureka!

Imaginary Friends have the solution with Home Vasectomy Kit®!

A good anesthetic (not included) is essential to any successful, enjoyable home surgery.

Two good anesthetics are better than one (still not included).

Slow down there, friend. You’ll need to be able to see – and cut – straight.

Imaginary Friends Genuine Home Surgical Tools® are guaranteed to be dull so you can avoid the tricky, dangerous sharp edges of other home surgical tools.

You’re almost ready to start. As with any surgery, it’s crucial to select a safe, clean working environment such as your bathtub.

Grab your tools and have a seat.

It’s time to make the first incision.

Grasp the vas tube on one side under the scrotal skin. Then make a 1cm incision through the scrotal skin and through the sheath or covering of the vas until the whole vas is exposed.

It’s easy!

Oopsy-daisy!

No need to worry. A little bleeding is normal.

Dissect the arteries, veins, and nerves free at the vas tube.

That anesthetic holding up alright? Good.

In the event of blood spurting out in long arcs, simply apply even pressure to the affected area.

Remember, a healthy attitude promotes healing.

Now it’s time to bring to play all the skills that earned you that merit badge in needlepoint.

Tie the ends of the dissected vas and suture the scrotal incision. Repeat the above steps on each side.

A little carefully applied a bandage and you’re as good as new!

Remember to keep those emergency numbers handy. The fine people at your local 911 dispatch will be more than happy to help you in the rare event that bleeding should continue abnormally. Just remember to reply with an emphatic “no” when the EMTs ask if you still want to hurt yourself.

Congratulations! You’re sterile!

Now get out there and show the ladies of the world what you’ve got! OK, maybe you should wait for the swelling and pus to subside…
