To be fair, I'm with Doniker on this. I like stories I can believe and empathise with. This just strikes me as inherently improbable in too many respects. As for being well written, if you generally read only comics and tabloid newspapers, then I can understand that you might think that.
AC - precisely! Differently put, but the same message!
Interesting to contrast the reaction to this story with the reaction to Jessica's first story, where she got so much sympathy and support after telling us about the poop traumas of her early life.
Nor, obviously, would I, GGG!! But at least I've kept MSS laughing, and we know she thrives on her daily dose of laughter (even if the thought of liquids 'spewing' out of her nose is rather unedifying). At least keeping her laughing should keep her off the Xanax and Zoloft too!! I'm amazed what I learn on here .....
CEP - the reason I understood is because the same thing happens over here with football (soccer to you perhaps). You get used to hearing cheering or whatever in unlikely places - usually resulting from TV.radio coverage. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if this factor affects conceptions ....
I do agree with Doniker - how fast does food go through you - I know very slowly in my case - but normal people!!??
Of course looking at other 'cranks' doesn't make you gay - but if you are on the smaller side, it sure as hell makes you feel inferior!! I adopt my publicised 'blinkered' approach!
GGG - you have caused my to lie here thinking of any possible profane adjectives encompassing only five letters. I don't really think 'bitch' is worthy of disguising - it is in common use, after all. Four, six and anything above that, no problem, but clearly my mind is not firing on all cylinders this morning. Must be the shock of seeing sun outside!! Anyone help!!??
I must apologise Doniker. We are all different! Thinking a bit more, I can understand that you enjoy poop stories, but don't want to see/smell - irrespective of whether from an attractive lady or an old fart!
Sorry, GGG, but I really want someone to explain 'open stall toilets' to me. Are there really public toilets in the USA with no doors on the stalls, so anyone who enters gets a full views of someone taking a shit? Most people I know in England wouldn't use a stall with no lock on the door - never mind no door. Really sorry, but its mindblowing to me! Reading doesn't really affect me - as I've said earlier, I'm not there long enough to open the magazine, or whatever.
I really think my favourite #2 one liner is that from A Mighty Wind in the current Poop of the Week - 'I think I have a tour group checking out'.
