The Show Must Go On

Posted 07.20.2004 by Don Splatter (11)
In high school, back in the 70s, I was pretty cool. I had an awful haircut, looking like a cross between John Denver and Don Ho. Also, I had a mustache which wasn't really a mustache, consisting of eleven white hairs and resembling the ass end of a muskrat.

Each year the school had a talent contest. Since I thought I was cool and funny, I decided to do a stand up comedy act that bordered on the ridiculous. Actually, the whole thing wasn't too bad. I played a character that started out as very pompous and self-important, but went through a series of transformations into desperation and ended up crawling around on the floor trying to eat bugs. I'm sure this sounds crazy, but it was funny at the time.

Part of the act was shedding clothing as it went along. My outer layer was an English butler outfit, featuring white shiny "shoe boots" with zippers on the sides, and an English derby cap with a feather poking from the top. As the skit moved along, the clothing began edging to more common things -- among others, a green leisure suit complete with fake chest hair and lots of gold medallions. The last get- up was one of those disgusting white sleeveless tank tops with large coffee and ketchup stains, a set of tourist-looking Bermuda shorts five sizes too large (borrowed from my three-hundred-pound uncle), and black high top socks with disco boots.

The show played for four straight nights because it was fairly well known in our little suburban town. On the third night, an unexpected surprise came about. I had eaten out at a little grimy cave called the Dairy Dream: three hot dogs with onions that tasted like crumbs from a Polish sardine cannery, and an order of fries that tasted like dehydrated Dak bacon.

There was no way to go to the bathroom during the talent show because you were not allowed to leave the stage area. And so, fifteen minutes prior to my appearance, my garbage dump began burning like a paprika sandwich on Wonder Bread. I began calculating my ability to get through the final few minutes without an antivirus formatting of my C drive. I was sure I wouldn't make it. I had no choice but to immediately go through the back and walk through several hallways to find a restroom.

Upon arriving, I got violently sick. Before even getting inside the bathroom, a virulent strain of hardware began uploading through my private settings. Reaching the crapware, I pointed my mouse at the groupshare and dumped my A drive. Those weenies had gone through me in less than forty minutes.

As you may realize, the worst was yet to come. I desperately needed to reboot my firewall, but I didn't have the time. With three sets of clothes, there was no way to get all it off and then back on and still do the skit. So I decided to put the whole thing on standby.

Crawling back like a drunken and disoriented sea otter, it became obvious that some of the weenies had made their way into my outfit. Some of the people I passed in the hall began laughing at my sorry state, but I quickly decided that the costume was silly-looking enough on its own, and that I had nothing to worry over. Wrong.

Just as I came to the stage, the director called out, "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? You are on in one minute!"

Just then, as I stepped to the curtain, a JAVA prompt came on my screen, and a billow of macrosoft squished out of my pipeline.

I had no choice but to stagger out on stage.

People began laughing right away, just like every other night, because I looked incredibly ridiculous. But what no one knew was that I was squeezing my connector as hard as possible to prevent a cookie.

It was the longest five minutes of my young life. I cannot remember much, but somehow the sheer panic of the situation contributed to the comedy, and everyone was in hysterics. Instead of removing the clothes as I had before, I simply ripped them off. Each quiver prevented a power surge, and I kept the cut-and-paste from happening. But, inevitably, I was unable to prevent a laptop powerdown.

I slathered off the stage like a slab of baloney being fried with a blowtorch. Wild cheering and screaming followed my misfortune. Somehow, the whole thing had produced a most hysterical comedy act -- one that I could never repeat.

I didn't have time for a curtain call. Unable to walk, I crawled out the emergency exit to the parking lot. As I got into my Duster, any casual observer would have thought that I'd just escaped a failed lobotomy and had been hit by a lightning bolt before opening the car door. Warm weenie onions were pouring from every crack in my ePod. Finally I was on the familiar plastic seat, unable to even aim at the floor. Allowing an upchuck of unprecedented size, I let nature take its course and released every file in my folder. The Duster would never be the same, and could never be sold or even given away.

It was several minutes before I was able to move.

The episode was far from over. Starting the car and thinking of little else besides getting home and getting out of my clothes, I floored the Duster, and was able to reach a speed of fifty m.p.h. after several minutes.

Blue lights.

The police officer knocked at the window of the loser cruiser, and when I rolled down the glass he jumped back like John Kerry at a botox convention. "What the hell do you have in there?!?"

I managed to convince the officer that I'd had a fine dining experience at the infamous Dairy Dream, and that it was still oozing from several cavities of which I was aware (and a few I was not). He laughed. Then he let me go. When I got home, I went into the bathroom and spent the next four hours trying to debug my processor, even though the had unit overheated and the fan had given out.

Recently, while traveling in Georgia, I passed a Dairy Dream. I stopped. Sure enough, hot dogs were the feature item on the menu!

I decided to have some ice cream instead. With age comes wisdom.

That was not good humor. I understood all of the computer references and still did not like the story.

Deuce Fan (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

If my memory Key serves me well, dairy dream hotdogs were megabytes away from a dairy QUEEN hotdog. It is not hard to compile your situation knowing the source of your code. Maybe your crash was due to SERVER ERROR in the dairy dream controller populating your hotdog with a nasty infectious virus. I am glad to see that the next chance you got to download a dairy dreamer, your RAM kicked in and disallowed access.
3rd post sucks ass -- ask Dookie, he knows what ass sucking is like :-)

MotelShit (47) -- 07.20.2004

Personally I liked the story. Vivid descriptions and well chosen words . . . I even understood the computer references. I guess it just takes a certain level of intelligence to understand good humor.

C Everett Poop (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

to use Doniker's line "this story blows". I don't get all the lame computer references at all and they make it unreadable. What the hell do computers have to do with shit, toilets, asses, bathrooms or anything else. Dave, please delete this drivel before anybody else hurts their brain trying to figure it out. 1st post.

Deuce Fan (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Dammit...

Brother Bigloaf (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

This story takes the "It Was a Dark And Stormy Night" prize for the worst use of metaphors ever posted on the poopreport. Ol' Splatter should be given a prize or something. A unique work that manages to be confusing while at the same time being totally unintelligible. A work of art really.

Crapola (249) -- 07.20.2004

I burst out laughing when the cop car appeared. Maybe I'm easily amused, but I thought the story was OK. Poop support!

ThreePly (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

All of the computer references spoiled it for me. The story itself could've been A-material had it not been for all of the "file," "A Drive," "format," and "download" chat. I don't see what computers have to do with standup comedy.

Too bad, this story could've been tremendous had it not been for all the tech speech.

Brother Bigloaf (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

I agree with you Crapola, it was amusing. Splatter obviously spent a good deal of time crafting the endless bad metaphors and writing the story. We need to encourage the creativity while supporting our fellow poopers!

Dale McCord (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

". Reaching the crapware, I pointed my mouse at the groupshare and dumped my A drive" is good stuff.

C Everett (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

No it isn't. It stinks

The Big Wiper (2245) -- 07.20.2004

Well, I thought it was a vigorous attempt at poop reporting along the 'execution of a theme' line. Now, some of you obviously think it bytes, so to speak, but I do think our friend here put a lot of effort into this. I agree with Brother Bigloaf that creativity should be encouraged, even if the results aren't equally amusing to each of us.

Tydirium (516) -- 07.20.2004

i think the problem is that he combined a good story with sometimes-decent metaphors. A good story like this, the metaphors were unnecessary. The story alone would have sufficied. On a less entertaining story, weaving it together around computer metaphors would have helped it out. so here, it was just unnecessary.

Di Uhreea (410) -- 07.20.2004

Great story but the computer references took away from the 70's feeling from the first paragraph. I was actually picturing old commodores & apples until I heard "antivirus" and "firewall".

chad maran (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Shoe BOOTS!!!!! Those things with zippers!!! And dussters and john denver haircuts. I had everything but the duster

ThreePly (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Like I said before, computers had nothing to do with this story.

"Reaching the crapware, I pointed my mouse at the groupshare and dumped my A drive"

Ok, does that mean he found the toilet and puked in the bowl while shitting in his clothes? Or did he sit down and shit in the toilet. Wait, no, he couldn't have because he had all that clothes on and he couldn't get them off in time, right? Is the "mouse" his face, or his ass? Is the groupshare the toilet, or was that the crapware? Dumping the A-drive is in reference to "Ass Drive" right? No? Yes? So he did get the three costumes off in time then, no?

Fuck it, I give up. See what I mean? Too much thinking involved. If I wanted to think, I'd read Shakesphere.

chad maran (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Wow....3Ply,,,,,,you really ARE ANAL....no wonder this site appeals to you sooo...

do you need a hug?

TraderJ (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

I agree with 3Ply...totally confusing.
The story would have stood on it's own without the metaphors and computer lingo.
See ya...gotta go Defrag my c: drive and upload my microchip. (whatever the freak that means)

poopalina (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

I hate the computer metaphors....boring

ThreePly (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Yes Chad. My Hard Drive could use your Norton Anti Virus to help me Control Alt Delete this Trojan Horse I'm dealing with. Thank Gates for 01 such as yourself. I was so Ready to jump out a Window until you came along. If weren't strait, I'd totally let you C:Enter, if you know what I mean.

Notice all the computer references? Brilliant, isn't it!

I'm so happy, I could just Execute myself!

Today sucks.

Poopula (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

whats with all the annoying computer lingo? it totally ruined the story. after the 3rd "joke" i got annoyed. what do computers have to do with any of this, unless the person who wrote this is a computer or robot.

mudpusher (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Where as I appreaciate anyone's attempt at a story, omg.....the computer metaphors are so lame.

Sorry, not good

Amen

Tydirium (516) -- 07.20.2004

"If weren't strait, I'd totally let you C:Enter, if you know what I mean."

haha!!

Poopula (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

I know, Don Splatter is an old geezer trying to be cool with "us kids" by pretending to be updated with all the latest computer shit. Aww how cute. NOT!

The Big Wiper (2245) -- 07.20.2004

Three-Ply: Shakespeare, huh? To pee or not to pee, is that the question? Or: Out, damned spot! Is that a skidmark I see before me, briefly?

See? Shakespeare can be fun, too.

daphne (3668) -- 07.20.2004

I have to admit that the computer references had me confused between vomiting and the runs, but I still loved it. I pictured in my mind what he was trying to say and I laughed. It must have been hysterical to see the third performance.

I think chad's mention of shoe boots is great. I had tuck in boots and a horrible pair of clogs. A fashion scarf. Candie's heels. Glittery blouse. Oh shit, someone call the fashion police while I stand here and flip my hair with my giant, green, blocklike comb that I pulled out my tiny back pocket that also holds some Love's Baby Soft and Maybelline roll on lip gloss. Uh, download an update or something. I don't know. You all do that computer analogy better than me.

Raw-Hide (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Dat Sukd!!!!!!!

electric boogeyman (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

"Dat Sukd!!!!!"?

What's that? Shitty German? If you mean "that sucked", I'd rather read a story with too many computer references instead of anything you'd write, mister intelligence.

it's phoenetical (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

"that sucked."

Vietnamese Hoho (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Me love it long tim!

The Shit Volcano (3740) -- 07.20.2004

A. I laughed at this story. Especially when the cop showed up.

B. What do computers have to do with the 1970s?

C. Did you win the talent show or not?

Turdie (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

That story was um...interesting...what's with the nonstop computer referencing though? Just wondering...

Turdie...or Uitwerpselen (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

One more thing...mij gedachte welk vertelsel watertje stront! (Speaking of bad German...but this is Dutch...I like to exercise my skills with poop words!)

daphne (3668) -- 07.20.2004

me idea which vertelsel watertje shit

This is what Babelfish came up with for that.

Can you tell me what it means?

Don Splatter (11) -- 07.20.2004

Well,,,,i went overboard on the computer stuff. Nuff said. But wer'ent those talent shows fun? It was a more innocent time. Who can ever forget dairy dream hot dogs, andy gibb's "shadow dancing", white shoes at ice cream socials, plymouth dusters, earth shoes, ...and "tuck in boots" and candy heels. Well, Daphne, email me,,,,cause i have no idea what candies heels were but they sound too cool!!! And I DO remember kissing my beautiful, feathered-haired, bell-bottomed, "charlie smelling" "strawberry lip-glossed" prom dates,,,,,,,. Sounds corny now, but .....that was quite memorable.
..And yeah,, I guess I am old. well, im 43. Then again, when you brain dead "kids" at 27 are my age, instead of being in premium condition, looking 30, running 5 miles a day....you'll look like wayne newton at a class re union.

Not everyone who write on this website is worthless, but those of you who repeatedly make comments about poop are. Daphne, ThreePly, Skid Marky Mark, The Holy Shitter, The Big Wiper, C Everett Poop, and the rest of you people disgust me. I hope, for your sake, you are all on welfare or worker's comp because you just got fired since you check this website seven times a day. If your work is paying for this, you should be ashamed of yourselves. I bet Daphne responds to this in the next half hour. She is probably like 500 pounds and her computer is the only thing that likes her. I will be glad to help guide you to a better life. Please write me an email so we can discuss your future and work together to get you on the right path in life. Just telling it like it is...
-T-Rex

C Everett Poop (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Hey T-Rex, I live in a $700K house in SoCal and have no mortgage. I make a ton of money and have no bills. I just think shit stories are funny.

Oh, and eat my ass you pompous little jizz stain.

dookie dog (not verified) -- 07.20.2004

Yes I know what sucking ass is like at least it's female ass. I can't say the same for T-REX. You know all these years I have had that Duster everytime I drove it I thought it was me.

Harry Plopper (21) -- 07.21.2004

I felt for Dan on stage. There must come a point in any comedian's life where the laughs are not at the *act* but at the person doing it. This was that time for Dan :( And the Cops! If only the same one could have been the arresting officer in the Troy Musil case.

T-Rex, I'm so glad you posted. As a result of your inspiration I have decided to give up reading this site, and more importantly, I resolve to not find any amusement in my bodily functions. The next time I block the U-bend, instead of weeping with joy at the magnificence of this natural beauty, I shall hold my nose, bemoan the fact that we animals are plagued with the curse of having to poo every so often, and I shall pay a humorless plumber to dispose of said pile. While he's doing that I shall go off and do some work for some other guy. Thanks again for showing me the path of enlightenment and fulfillment. You must have read a lot of personal development books. I - nay, *we* the readers and contributors owe our bright and pure futures to you.

ps

Does anyone know if Dioralite (the anti-diarrhoea drug) works as an antidote to Immodium (the anti-constipation drug)?

Slim Jim Junkie (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

T-Rex sounds somewhat like the moron Layna, a lunatic that we had about 1 year ago.

Fudgepump (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

So, T-Rex doesn't like all the comments about poop? I have 2 questions for this IQ-waiting-to-happen;
1) what part of the word "poopreport" don't you understand?
2) why are you even reading, much less posting?

Fudgepump (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

BTW, Rex; I hope I wasn't too hard on you. You're obviously a very introspective person (introspective in the sense of having your head inserted deeply into your own ass). You have my sympathy.

mudpusher (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

Yeah, what he said....

ThreePly (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

T-Rex, yes, I scope out PoopReport at work. Its a great pick-me-up from the day to day activity here at the work place. As much fun as welfare sounds, I just can't bring myself to accept it.

And Splatter, last time I saw Wayne Newton, that dude looked just fine, living the high life in Vegas. Shit, that SOB takes a helicopter to work! So if this "brain dead" 27 year old looks that good thirty years from now, that's just fine by me. Now go brush up on your l33t $p33k.

Bill Gates (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

you are being sued by microsoft inc. for improper use of computer references

Fudgepump (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

C Everett, I'm curious; what does $700K get you in SoCal? Does that come with indoor plumbing, or do you have to go 7 figures to lose the outhouse?

Fudgepump (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

I just spoke to friend in the medical community, and it turns out that T-Rex may be suffering from CRID: Cranio-Rectal Insertion Disorder. I apologize, Rex; I assumed you were just an asswipe. (God, I'm an insensitive bastard!)

dookie dog (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

700k won't get you a tioliet in Santa Barbara, he must be living somewhere down in South Central.

daphne (3668) -- 07.21.2004

I also think T-Rex answered the question if Dioralite works. He sounds like an overdose victim.

And, to answer the 500 pound question, no. I check Poopreport when I am also on eBay, which I am using to do something with all the stuff we don't need now that we are unpacking from the move.

I know I shouldn't respond, but I am not a welfare case. I used WIC for my 2 kids when they were younger, though, because soldiers don't get paid much. And, I did volunteer work afterwards as a thank you.

Oh yeah, and the fiftieth post or so rules.

Straight-Pipe (31) -- 07.21.2004

Pretty good story. The computer references were used poorly. Even if there had been fewer of them it wouldn't have helped the story.

not a computer nerd (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

What the hell is l33t $p33k.?

Slim Jim Junkie (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

1337 5p33|< is a system of replacing letters with numbers and punctuation in order to foil censors and gov't spies. Then some morons thought that making 1337 5p33|< popular was cool. Now it is a shell of its former self. Many of the artistic nuances have been lost, as well as dialects specific to certain parts of the 'net.

Now, 1337 5p33|< is the thing that morons use to seem cooler than they are.

dookie dog (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

Daphne, make sure that stuff your selling aien't worth bucks some guy tried to screw me out of my Spuds Mc Kenzie, doll....ah shit I'm sorry my turds mc kenzie doll.

Chris and Anthony (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

Loyal poop reporters,
As you all may recently remember, I was writing a response when my mutt started bleeding from anthony stuffing it with too many cucumbers. I'm sorry. I should have accepted the beautiful punishment (I had been a bad boy recently). But enough of that. Anthony and I are 24yr old stallions looking for classy gems like Daphne. What better place to come than here. We both are really in to poo related fun. If you want more personal info about us, please e-mail T-Rex and he will gladly provide. Thanks.

Gabby Hayse (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

Thanks, Slim. I don't feel so old now. Maybe I'll use it sometime and seem really hip with some whipersnappers.

Ouch (not verified) -- 07.21.2004

The comments made me laugh ten time more than the story! Gotta go download a zip file..

daphne (3668) -- 07.21.2004

Dammit,

I wasn't going to reply, except for this.....

I just got done doing more research on some great foster care kid programs, like Bluesky in Bellingham, and I checked in to see this shit.

Yeah, I'm class.

I'm doing some research while we have a new 1200 dollar a month mortgage, because I have 25 dollars of charity that I have to spend extra, now, because Kurt got a raise, and that's my charity demand. Not shit charity, but stuff that helps animals and kids who really need it.

And, now someone is making jokes on me being classy.

Well, kiss my ass.

Go ahead with your 24 year old selves, laugh. And, I'll keep on being on a low class poopreporter, while we continue to make house payments on a soldier's paycheck and put money aside for the kid's college while I do my stupid mail in education for dog grooming and training, so that maybe, someday, I can train dogs for single women who are going to put up with fucks with you.

You dumb fucks. Kiss my 150 pound ass.

See, Holy Shitter, I do get pissed sometimes. Can't help it!

Deuce Fan (not verified) -- 07.22.2004

Daphne,
Does this mean you are going to guzzle now?
:-)

dookie dog (not verified) -- 07.22.2004

Sorry Daphne I didn't mean to piss you off, but can I still kiss your 150lb ass?

The Shit Volcano (3740) -- 07.22.2004

I agree with Slim Jim. T-Rex is quite obviously Layna. That, or some teenaged half-wit with nothing better to do than flame sites he doesn't understand.

P.S. Daphne, the boys above are why I'm single. And why my basement wreaks of rotting flesh. I've stuffed a few of the punks down there. Damn, I hate some men!

The Shit Volcano (3740) -- 07.23.2004

Damn! I shouldn't watch slasher films when I'm drunk!

dookie dog (not verified) -- 07.23.2004

Watch it Shit Volcano you never know who has there ears on.

The Shit Volcano (3740) -- 07.24.2004

Yeah, I know. Blame the Captain Morgan's rum.

The Shit Volcano (3740) -- 07.24.2004

Hey, quit signing on as me, shitface!

Excuse me, my friend seems to think it's funny to call me a drunk, psychopathic killer.

buddy buttcheeks (not verified) -- 07.24.2004

I was wondering how long it would take you to notice

Ivan Jaginoff (not verified) -- 07.24.2004

The metaphors would've been funny if (A) This had something, ANYTHING to do with computers and (B) You knew enough about computers to make funny metaphors. You get an 'A' for effort, but a D- for piece-of-shameful-shit!
