Here I Don't Go Again
It’s Friday, and I haven’t taken a respectable crap all week. Despite eating nearly two boxes of raisin bran – that’s four scoops of raisin - a loaf (the word mocks me) of double-fiber bread, and enough celery sticks to choke a kindergarten full of five-year-olds, I’m still constipated. My stomach is puffy, I feel bloated, and my back hurts. I’m pregnant with a brown baby, and nobody has told me that I’m glowing.
Beside the physical unpleasantness, being constipated really bothers because I am such a devoted disciple of roughage. If my fingers were perpetually stained with the grease from cheesy Gorditas, pizza Hot Pockets, and Sausage McMuffins, then I’d not complain. But I eat more fiber than a fucking woodchuck. The only way I could get more fiber in my diet is if I sprinkled sawdust on my food. And it’s not like I enjoy it, but I’m willing to pay the price in order to crap well-formed dowel rods on a regular basis.
Now it seems that fiber has forsaken me. If another week goes by, I may finally be forced to schedule a colonoscopy, which I'll almost certainly enjoy and then turn into a gay size-queen.
To make matters worse, Bob, the electrical contractor who came over yesterday to quote the installation of a cat escalator (Max is getting way too fat), asked to use my bathroom and, as if to mock my pain, squeezed out an unbelievably putrid Conan-the-Barbarian shit. This inconsiderate cocksucker stunk up the whole first floor of my house, and then said he’d have to get back to me later with a quote because, “I’ve got an appointment with an important customer.”
What, do they need you to rush over and wipe your ass with their pillows and jerk-off on their Pomeranian, you filthy bastard? Go fuck yourself, Bob.
(Apparently Bob's exploits are notorious. Three hours later, a siding contractor entered my house, took a whiff and said, "Christ. You having some electrical work done or what?")
Anyway, I tried listening to my iPod to keep my mind off of my condition, but got distracted and instead came up with some Rolling Stones songs for it:
Defecation ( I Can’t Get No)
You Can’t Always Shit When You Want
Waiting On A Friend
Stinky Fingers
(Hey! You!) Get Off My Bowel
Just My Constipation
I know these are lame, but remember that I’ve got a week’s worth of toxins coursing through my veins and poisoning my body. So how about you give me a fucking break.
Comments
And I have the opposite problem.

Before you rush off to have Dr. Doodie insert tubing in your poopchute, try these 2 things first: 1) dried apricots (as many as you can stand, I suppose) and/or 2) molasses, 2 tablespoons a day.
May you spend a healthy portion of the holiday weekend on the crapper.

May I suggest 10 days in China? About day 2 in Xi'an and my pooper was getting me up at one in the morning to get to work.

Sounds to me like you have some impacted feces. You're going to have to reach up in there and pull it out.
(Cat escalator??!)

If the siding contractor really said that, I "owe" you a laugh! Seriously... that's some seriously effed up shitting the electrical contractor must have done.
And I agree with Dyck... cat escalator? Are you going to slap a picture of your bloated pussy up for us all to see, next?
My remedy for poopin?
Coffee, lots of it. Metamucil and cod liver oil.
And if that doesn't work, a good ol' Fleet enema should get things going.

You don't even need to change the titles of some Stones' tunes:
1. Always Suffering
2. Doo doo doo doo (Heartbreaker)
3. It's Not Easy
4. Start Me Up and, of course,
5. Let it Loose.
Throwing Poo is the best blog name ever.

Dude, a week?? Man thats gonna be fresh when it gives. Go to walmart & get a bottle of equate (generic) vegilax, take about 6 or 7. Do NOT make plans for the next day except having plenty of reading material in the john and maybe some lysol.
