I really dug it. great use of alliteration: " since the stench swiftly swept away into the New York City skyline."

I see nothing wrong with a third-party story. I don't really understand why his race had anything to do with it, but I guess when you're in a relationship like that you're a lot more conscious of it, so naturally it permeates stories and stuff.

Oh, and that title is incredible.

Damn Crapola, I gotta give props to your man for keeping things under wraps (craps?) and not destroying that car. I found myself in a similar situation at a seafood fest the first time I tried shark steak. Never touched the shit since.

So why didn't he write the story??? Second hand is weak.

My husband didn't write the story because he is not interested in being a Poop Reporter. But it was a funny true story I wanted to share with you all.

This story was too hip for me for me to understand. I am an old man and dont know about all this jive you kids say.

not to be too critical, but this story was boring.
Other then having to get TP in front of people what was so different or entertaining about this story?
He didn't shit himself or destroy the bathroom, he had easy access to a toilet and everything turned out fine.
this sure was weak.

OK! Not destructive enough for Doniker! No wea-poo-ns of mass destruction. I love it!!!!

I must say that the first paragraph had me giggling the entire time. My best friend is also the inside of an oreo union, and maybe this is why I laughed so hard. It was like hearing her relay something.
And, Crapola, I feel for him. Shrimp that has gone bad is not good. As you can see, I, as Doniker said about my forum post about Gatorade, "feel your pain". Or, his pain. Blechhhhhhhhhhhh.

So what does your husband being of the dark-skinned persuasion have to do with anything. The story could have been a lot shorter without all those references. Then you could have focused on the 8.5 poop itself--I mean you skipped the best part! Here I was hoping to read about someone soiling themselves in a Porche.

There was too much emphasis on all the people being black...is that important to you? Just wondering because a friend of mine always has to act black, and hang out with black people though she is Asian. It just makes me laugh.

The story was good. Nothing wrong with stating your dude's a brotha. I bet you're proud. And maybe you've had to endure snotty looks from bigotted people. Seems like you're cool with everything and that's good.
I liked the title for the three references. Did you get them all Ty?

three references? I caught the movie w/ drew barrymore, the boyz (in the hood), and writhing because he was in pain. is that what you meant? crapola, it's a genius title

That was a pretty good story Crapola, and I think we all felt your husband's pain, because you did a nice job retelling it.
I have to say, I agree with the girls and TY on this one, there's nothing wrong with being proud of an interracial marriage. I am proud to say I'm the product of one-- Black Dad and white mom. It's great that your happy, because when my mom's parents and immediate family found out she was marrying a black man, even though he was a leading NFL lineman- they disowned her, and to this day they still don't talk to her. We're better than them! Sorry got of track--

Typo: got OFF track

JJJ1987 -- who is your dad? we're two degrees away from fame!

"tydirium (ty) -- 5.11.2004
crapola, it's a genius title"

DAVE MADE UP THE TITLES IN ALL 28 OF MY STORIES THAT HAVE HIT THE FRONT PAGE. I AM SURE HE MADE THIS ONE UP TOO. GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE...

It would have made a great story if you hadn't put so many details in it. Anyway, funny story, Crapola

My dad is Gene Upshaw who played for Oakland from 1967-1983. He was a left o- gaurd, went to three superbowls in three decades, and now heads the Players Union in Washington, D.C. (we live in Northern Virginia)

I have heard theories that 1000 years from now there will only be one race.
Interracial mating is becoming more and more acceptable everyday; 1000 years from now if you are a "pure white" or "pure black" or whatever you will be a minority, who will be insulted and picked on.

First off, holy shit. Gene Upshaw. Old number 63. Man, him and Art Shaw were such a team!!! No freakin' way. I am impressed. But, I don't remember him much after 1982. I thought he retired earlier. It's been so long, though. Who would know better than you?
Second, I named my own story yesterday, so I think some of us get off with our own titles.
Third, I think it's funny people are wondering why there is so much reference to race. I think that people are more sensitive to mentioning black-related (or African American? Whatever) stories, notes, and anecdotes than any other type of references. We can tease at gays, chicks, especially white dudes who can't dance, and the like, I think, easier than to make any black ethnic reference. Well, since my husband is in the Army, I should be more accurate and say that's how it is for us. Personally, I don't care, but I think the story was funnier with it.

Daphne, you might be right, maybe it was 1982? It was before me anyways. Yep he played with Art who now lives in Reno, NV and John Otto "00" all under John Madden.
You know your stuff

Well, I may like a little football, but YOU are the one with the cool genetics! So, do you beat the shit out of people who try to get past you on the left? Hahaha!!!

Wow - Gene Upshaw! Great player!

I learned football at my Daddy's knee on Sunday afternoons. He'd say "SweetiePie, go get me a beer out of the fridge." And with each beer I brought to his Barcalounger, my Dad would teach me something about football.

Hmm... what do Poop Report and the NFL have in common?
Both are all about the End Zone
(for starters :-)

The comments are much more interesting than the story. That's just sad.

Enough comments about being a "brotha"

I'm an african american and I found this story terrible. WHO CARES about your husband shit stories. Write your own!

still creepie

LMAO @ Crapola. Good joke. :D
