"Fish and chips with fries" reminded me of one of my pet peeve menu "typo" -- "with au jus". Department of Redundancy and Needless Duplication.

But back to the main subject, a number of years ago I had a tubal ligation because I was tired of being on The Pill and was finally considered to be mature (over 30) enough to decide not to have children. The pre-surgery hospital release form I had to sign stated that the surgery could possibly result in sterility. I should certainly hope so!!!
