The Law Of The Conservation Of Energy Bars

Posted 09.04.2007 by Doo-rango (69)
I have been an avid mountain biker since the early nineties; and in that time, I have been aware of the many technical innovations and gadgets that have come and gone with varying degrees of success and popularity. At some point early on, G.O.R.P. (Good Old Raisins and Peanuts) was no longer en vogue as a source of quick energy, and was ultimately supplanted by energy bars.

To be honest, I have never felt a boost of energy or anything else other than strange cramps in my abdomen as my internal organs tried to come to grips with this strange sustenance. Nevertheless, I clung to an internal belief that somehow these energy bars enabled me to ride better.

My use of energy bars peaked and dropped off after one particularly long race, during which I consumed at least four sticky energy bars of a brand that I had not bought before. It was a good race and I came in just behind the winning pack, which made me feel good about my abilities as a rider. My friend and I decided to celebrate our finish with a greasy meal at McDonalds, where I stacked two hamburgers, fries, and a large sugary drink on top of the science experiment already brewing inside me.

Like many of the readers here, I enjoy a good shit, and I am proud of the regularity, frequency, and overall quality of my poops. (Maybe I should keep records?) Unfortunately, on this race day, a metamorphosis was occurring in my stomach that was intent on defiling my clean record. The greasy burgers had acted as a catalyst, turning the mass of coagulated energy bars into a solid plug, not unlike the chemical action of a two-part automotive epoxy.

After two days of constipation and mounting pressure, I was becoming alarmed. I thought in my mind of the multitude of meals that were piling up behind it, threatening possibly to emerge at any minute from the back of my throat. Those first few days I felt the urge to go many times, and I would often run to the toilet and put myself through a torturous physical ordeal that at one point included slamming my ass up and down on the commode in pure frustration, as if I could unleash this beast like ketchup from a bottle. My efforts all ended in utter failure, and I shamefully abandoned the throne time and again without so much as a squirt of pee or a dry fart.

I went to the store and bought a laxative for the first time in my life. At twenty-five, this was as embarrassing as buying tampons for your sister. I purchased a few buffer items along with the laxatives and brought it all back to the apartment.

My lifetime experience with medicinal drugs had convinced me that the typical dosage was never adequate; I frequently doubled the adult dosage of any medication in order to attain the desired effect. I applied this methodology to the laxative and took a double dose of the small "chocolate" bars.

My girlfriend cooked me a large pasta meal, which I wolfed down, confident in the fact that it would soon be out of my system. About midnight, I felt the urge. I remember seeing a big grin on my face in the mirror when I entered the bathroom. At last!

Such naiveté.

Twenty minutes later I had been reduced to a pathetic figure, a shadow of my former self. Naked and sweating, I sat on the toilet after passing a few rabbit pellets with extraordinary effort. I felt my eyes tearing up. I muttered a long string of expletives.

I left the sweaty toilet seat red-faced and dazed, a distended vein bulging from my temple. I laid on the bathroom floor, a defeated man, unworthy of the sanctity of the throne. I wanted my mommy. I angrily pounded a fist onto the linoleum and swore to God that this was going to end TONIGHT -- come hell or high water.

And so I went to the box of laxatives and ate the remaining pieces. I opened the second, ‘back-up' box that I bought and ate all of it angrily, too. "That'll show you!" I hissed. I punched my stomach in anger, as if beating up an internal demon to be exorcised. I then went into the living room and lay on the couch, as I was too agitated to go back to bed. I eventually fell asleep.

A few hours later, early in the morning, my abdomen was racked with painful cramps and internal rumbling. I surmised that I was going through a male version of labor pains.

Then it hit me.

It is difficult to describe that point at which you know with 100% certainty that something is going to happen, but this was it. A most acute internal thrust opened my eyes wide open and forced me off the couch and to the toilet. I was almost jubilant, but still aware of the fact that I had gone down this road many times before in the preceding days.

To my horror, I discovered that the bathroom was occupied -- and I knew that I did not have more than five or ten seconds max before my ass had to be hovering over an open toilet, a bucket, linoleum -- anything!

"BABY!!!" I shouted desperately. "I need to get in right now!!! It's TIME!!!"

She knew what this was all about. Still: "Can you give me just a minute?"

A desperate laugh of disbelief escaped my throat. I was naked and standing on the light tan carpet that covered the floor of our apartment. At the edge of my peripheral vision was a magazine rack that was jammed with bridal magazines (we were engaged at the time). In a flash, I grabbed a magazine, opened it, and held it below me just as a torrent of hot excrement shot out with enough mass and velocity to compromise the delicate balance of the magazine. The despicably ugly extrusion continued unabated and quickly overwhelmed the dimensions of the magazine. Unable to stop, I felt the warm mass move around my hands and heard globules of shit plop onto the carpet. The moment felt surreal. This could not be happening to me.

About that time, the bathroom door opened and my fiancé exited. "It's all yours--"

She caught sight of the spectacle. She stopped. Her mouth dropped open in disbelief. I managed a hoarsely-whispered "sorry" that I am not sure she heard. Wordless, baffled, stupefied, she went into the bedroom, obviously seeking a place of solitude and peace away from the horrors of the world in which she could attempt to convince herself that this naked creature befouling her bridal magazines with the shameless impertinence and vile ignorance of an early hominid was not the same man that she had agreed to marry, grow old with, and be the father of her babies.

The next hour was partly spent cleaning the carpet and partly spent sitting on the commode and evacuating the remaining contents of my system. But by mid-morning, life began to return to a state of normalcy. I recognized the beauty of the world. Birds chirped cheerfully outside. The sun rose brightly into a clear blue autumn sky. My ordeal was over.

I was sitting at the kitchen table, reading the paper, when my fiancé finally emerged from the bedroom, yawning. She walked straight into the kitchen, poured herself a coffee, and sat down at the table, her hands wrapped around her warm coffee mug. She stared me straight in the eyes with a look of superiority -- the kind of look that you see from people who have never had a moment of fecal failure.

Was I worthy of her love? I made a mental assessment of my belongings and began to construct a moving timeline. I noted the difficulty of separating all of our CDs. Seattle seemed like a nice place to start over. I pondered the difficulties of changing one's name.

"Well" she said, pausing to take a sip of coffee. "How was your morning?"

What can I say? Her humor is what attracted me to her in the first place.

Great story Doo-rango, one of the best we`ve had for a long time.

I`m still imagining you hopping about the room, firing shit into that magazine with a look of total disbelief on your face.

C Everett Poop (668) -- 09.04.2007

Great story but don't you have any Taco Bells in your neighborhood? Far more effective than any laxative.............

GottaGoGirl (2616) -- 09.04.2007

Thoroughly enjoyed this story! Thanks, Doo-rango.

And extra kudos to your girlfriend for her response.

doniker (1534) -- 09.04.2007

You are too polite.

I have been in this situation a few times and I have actually barged in the bathroom telling my wife to "get up off the can, I have got to shit...NOW!!!"

Great story. You have a writing style that makes your stories easy and fun to read.

Fudgepump (366) -- 09.04.2007

NICELY done, Doo-rango. Doniker beat me to the comment about your laid-back writing style: I saw how long the story was and thought "oh christ", but before I knew it it was done.
Your bride-to-be definitely sounds like a keeper, DR.
I've been in the same shituation once or twice, and my port of call (in desperation) was the kitchen trash can.
Again - great story.

Hamster (581) -- 09.04.2007

Excellent story - and I agree with the others, your GF is, as they say where I am now, 'a diamond'.

But one little phrase will stick in my mind - 'a moment of fecal failure' - brilliant!!

RoboCrap13 (391) -- 09.04.2007

She's seen you at your worst and didn't run screaming for her parents. She's already dealt with you 'in sickness and in health, in good times and bad'.

You got 4 Aces and the Queen of Hearts on the first deal. May the best of your past be the least of your future.

doniker (1534) -- 09.04.2007

Why do people often need to praise the friends or partners of the authors of many poop stories for staying with someone after they have a fecal accident?

I have seen this said in the comments over and over on PoopReport.

Only a real shallow piece of shit would actually leave their mate or end a friendship over a disgusting poop related incident.

The Thunderous ... (710) -- 09.04.2007

Kudos to these women who put up with our poopy escapades! Doniker I happen to agree with ya poop runs deeper than any friendship OR love. A friend or significant other that respects this is a KEEPER.

Funny, CEP, you should mention Taco Bell. I had a cheesy bean and rice thing (burrito?) last night, and, well, I'm glad that the kids were in school today. True 'dat.

This story alarmed me. In 1988, I almost died from being sick with the flu and then taking laxatives because I was constipated. I took too many, also thinking they weren't working, and ended up 10 hours later in the emergency room. I had lost 19 pounds of water weight, yes, 19 pounds. My kidneys were slightly damaged. I was at the point of not being able to breathe because the dehydration was so bad. The doctor had an IV in both arms. It was too close of a call.

Dude, I'm so glad all that happened to you was that you crapped your pants. You could have really hurt yourself.

Where you able to salvage the magazine?

shitwit (571) -- 09.04.2007

I agree with Daphne on that point. Taking too many laxatives doesn't always have the desired effect and can be extremely harmful to most people. I had an anorexic housemate about 10 years ago who took a package of the "chocolates" and I took her to the ER late that night b/c she was so dehydrated from shitting her brains out. She had eaten like 10 tomatoes from the garden and that was apparently too much for her so she felt the need to evacuate her bowels in quite a harsh way. She dropped about 10 pounds (which was a LOT since she only weighed about 90 pounds a day earlier) in a few hours. Yuck. What an awful memory.

Dry-Wipe (48) -- 09.05.2007

oh yeah, ur lady is a keeper. altho, as i stated somewhere on this site before, anyone who is turned off by their mates bodily functions is not someone that u should want to be with. eating and shitting is a clue to a persons overall health so poop problems shouldnt be left for the suffering party to deal with alone.

that said, DR, what was a great story. shitty bridal magazines + stained carpet = me laughin my ass off. good job!


_______
oh man, i feel soo much better. i think i lost a few pounds... dont even think about going in there for at least 20-30 minutes. dont worry, i left the fan on.

Fudgepump (366) -- 09.05.2007

Damn, Daphne: what a pointless passing THAT would have been..."our beloved Daphne expired last evening due to complications from a laxative OD".
Doniker: the "poop taboo" IS so strong with some folks that I can imagine relationships dissolving over it. Best to get that on the table (among many other things) right in the beginning.

pnuttycorn (260) -- 09.05.2007

Chocolate Ex lax is still made?
You poor thing. I have never been constipated either. Quite the opposite.

Corn In His Shit (8) -- 09.05.2007

Fantastic story. truly hilarious. My favorite excerpt:

I thought in my mind of the multitude of meals that were piling up behind it, threatening possibly to emerge at any minute from the back of my throat. Those first few days I felt the urge to go many times, and I would often run to the toilet and put myself through a torturous physical ordeal that at one point included slamming my ass up and down on the commode in pure frustration, as if I could unleash this beast like ketchup from a bottle. My efforts all ended in utter failure, and I shamefully abandoned the throne time and again without so much as a squirt of pee or a dry fart.

Rivals any literature I've read in some time.

Fantastic story. Very funny. Well written. Not bad anyway for a homonid.

Homemade Salsa Chef (not verified) -- 09.06.2007

Awesomely "illustrated" story!!!

Reminded me of a personal incendent...

I had mentioned to my mother that I was thinking about making some homemade salsa with some tomatoes and peppers from my brother-in-law's garden. I checked the fridge for some some other necessary ingredients and came across some store-bought homestyle salsa. I looked over the ingredients and tasted some and it was really good, so I grabbed a bag of tortilla chips and plopped down in front of the tv for a snack. An hour later I had eaten the entire container of salsa and half the bag of tortilla chips. The only other food I had eaten that day was corn fritters, cheesy cauliflower, and a big bowl of pineapple-coconut ice cream. After a warning sign from down below, I headed towards the toilet clenching my butt cheeks. My ass exploded the second I made contact with the toilet seat and continued to spurt periodically for the next 30 minutes or so. I finally regained my strength, wiped the sweat from my brow, and began the clean up behind. Shockingly, a few wipes was all it took. As I stood to admire my creation, I was suprised to see a bowlful of pineapple-coconut corn and tomato salsa that smelled like overcooked cauliflower. I flushed it goodbye (twice) and went back to watching tv (thank God for DVR pause!).

The next day my mom asked me if I made salsa. I smiled slyly and said "yes i did!". She asked if she could try it and I said "no, I already flushed it!". She was a bit confused, but when I tried to explain, she just covered her ears and told me to never mention homemade salsa again. She just doesn't get me!

Doo-rango (69) -- 09.06.2007

I can't believe the salsa smell lasted through the next day! Thank God there is someplace in this universe where you can mention homemade salsa.

Miss Simone Scat (570) -- 09.06.2007

For some reason I found this to be a great line "I laid on the bathroom floor, a defeated man, unworthy of the sanctity of the throne". Great story!
Producing waste since 1967

Frank2401 (190) -- 09.06.2007

I agree with MSS about that line! And it's a great story Doo-rango. (me and mss know- because we know the secret of "the shampoo bottle label").

Shitake (10) -- 09.06.2007

"slamming my ass up and down on the commode in pure frustration, as if I could unleash this beast like ketchup from a bottle"
The imagery here was excellent! A butterknife works with the ketchup bottle....maybe...well, I guess not. Great story Doo-Rango!
My fiance had an experience with a "wet fart" once...I can still picture the defeated look on his face as he asked me to step out of the car so he could change. Give Mrs. Doo-Rango a big kiss, she's a keeper!

Mary Queen of Scats (387) -- 09.06.2007

Doo...I think maybe my husband is your long-lost brother.

Although there's never been an incident of escaping poo (yet)...he constantly has close calls because he gets naked WAY before he's headed to the shower or toilet (usually one right after the other...use your imagination to figure out the order).

Typical after-work routine: come home, take off boots, put ice freezy thing in frezer to re-freeze, get naked, talk to me about his day for 15 minutes, wait for me to ask him to do something, say "I gotta take a shit," leave.

Sometimes I ask him to do something right after he's naked but before he starts talking just because I want to see him do the wiggly poo dance.

_______
No no, honey. Kitties don't sit on the potty.

Doo-rango (69) -- 09.06.2007

Mary Queen of Scats:
I'm not always a naked shitter, but it is a very liberating feeling. You cannot be one with the toilet otherwise. You husband would probably agree. Abide with the toilet.

Hamster (581) -- 09.07.2007

Mary - how different we all are! I do a wiggly pee dance - but when I 'gotta shit' I have to stand completely still - butt clenched!

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 09.07.2007

You really shit on a magazine...thats CLASSIC!!

Hamster (581) -- 09.07.2007

AC - it depends entirely on the magazine in question. In some cases, I can think of nothing more appropriate.

Dry-Wipe (48) -- 09.08.2007

Well written and I enjoyed your story. A word of advise, prune juice is a good natural remedy to get the traffic movin in a bad jam. I bet you lost ten pounds and two rolls of TP that morning!
