Things That Make You Go Hmmm…

Fish Scales

Now That’s Fishy!

A 35-year-old woman has become the first transgender person in the world to undergo successful vaginal reconstructive surgery using the skin of tilapia fish.

Following botched sex reassignment surgery, the woman underwent a pioneering neovaginoplasty to give her the chance at a healthy sex life and improved self-esteem.

The three hour operation incorporated a tubular-shaped acrylic mould wrapped with tilapia skin the form of a biological prothesis to rebuild and extend the vaginal canal.

The patient, who goes by Maju, said she is “absolutely thrilled with the result and feels like a real woman.”

How Presidential

Like many things—or everything, “President” Donald Trump just can’t let things go.  Trump’s ongoing feud with war hero John McCain, who is also not around to defend himself may we remind you, has reached almost comical proportions. Allegedly, 45 wanted to keep a war ship named the USS John S. McCain obscured or completely moved from sight during his trip to Japan. That’s petty with a capital “P”!

Two Navy officials confirmed to CNN that the “White House Military Office asked lower-level US Navy officials about keeping the ship out of view. One of the Navy officials further clarified that the discussion included obscuring the ship or moving it, which was not practical because the ship was under repairs at the time.”

Needless to say it didn’t happen and of course Trump denies any knowledge of these actions. Yeah, okay!
