I guess all that can be said is: "Greater Love hath no man than he give up his..."
Congrats to a husband who really does give a $h**.
One can never say they have heard everything!
“Congrats to a husband who really does give a $h**.”
I do that and I end up on the couch!
The headlines just write themselves!
Yes, I’ve been reading for a while that a poo transplant is just the thing for people suffering C. Diff, infection or people whose intestinal flora have been wiped out by antibiotic treatment.
What I don’t understand is why those “probiotic” formulas you see in the health food stores can’t do the same thing?
There is no truth to the rumor that she said to him many years ago “You are full of crap” to which he replied “And someday you are going to be damn glad I am!”
Heart warming, although the underlying MSNBC article is stomach turning. Makes you wonder who first thought up the idea of “fecal bacteriotherapy”. Strange stuff.
Exactly my thoughts.
However, if you simply eat live yogurt or take lactobacillus acidophilus, you don't need an expensive procedure that splits the spoils between the hospital, the doc and the drug companies.
Get with the program ;o)
She knew how to put up with his Shiite until the very end—and then some.
I think, if this had been me, I would have invoked Medical Privacy.
A transpoopotomy. I heard of it years before and it’s not a crock of... well you know what. Not much poop is needed in order to re-seed the dysfunctional digestive system. But the recipient can’t just eat sh*t, as the stomach acids would destroy the beneficial bugs. Instead it has to be infused at the proper place in the digestive system using tubing.
At first, I wondered if the author meant ‘facial transplant’, then ‘fecal to facial...?’, then ‘naah, couldn’t be!’
It began, I think, with a very weird Islamic cure for dysentery. If a person began to feel sick with this, he would follow a camel around until it shat, then would promptly swallow the warm poop. Usually this would abort the case of dysentery. The poop had to be warm, because once it had cooled to environmental temperature the beneficial bacteria had died. Germans discovered this during WWII, but finicky as they were, they had their scientists create a pill which would carry the same beneficial bacteria.
LOL. Good One! But the viewer has to know the context of the caption that goes with it.
For those scratching their heads about "pretzels at a bar", consider that beer makes you pee a lot and so you have a lot of people going to and from the bathroom frequently and then putting their hands in the pretzel bowl.
Speaking of pee, it's not until you wear shorts at a urinal that you realize just how much of it splatters back out.
