You guys are outrageous! I'm gonna break into this adolescent boys club thread and change the subject.
What amazes me is how we take the simple act of breathing thru our nose totally for granted, don't even think about it, until we have a cold and can't breath through our nose. Close to unbearable.

Hahahaha
I'll have to remember that one.
As for your question, eoe, I think that it's second nature to take things for granted and then be annoyed when they're gone... take for example most relationships, or when the electricity goes off,etc. It's the 'Tantalus effect.'
eoe, I must concur with you. What amazes me is how dry my apartment is right now, despite humidifiers in action, and how my nose dries out so much overnight, I burst capillaries and blow out bloody snot every morning. Sure, the kleenex gets messy, but breathing free is a far greater thing. Thing is about breathing, if you don't take it for granted, you end up counting every breath....think about that one.
Ever sneeze and fart at the same time, only to find a nugget in your drawers?
Neither have I.
I'M NEVER COMING BACK HERE!!!!
Aww, cmon eoe, we's just pullin' yer pigtails. I do feel horrid when I can't breathe, and do wonder what happens overnight that makes me so stuffy in the morning. I suppose I should see a doctor, but I'm pretty sure it's just that it's so friggin' dry in here.
Eh, don't be nice just because eoe doesn't like it.
Ever puke and poop at the same time?
While having sex?
While dressed up like a mailman wearing leather boots?
Um, yea. Neither have I.
Huh! Our nipples can compete well with "from small to big" - in the right hands....
True enough bunny, but not likely in Gautam's.
You ever walk through the grocery store and run into the stench of someone elses fart and there's no one around? Do get the hell out of there as fast as you can fearing that people will think it was you?
Hell no....I love that, cuz when people are shopping, they won't know it's you anyway, so what the heck. A laugh a day keeps the doctor away.
The wrinkly nose faces of the shoppers are so funny to look at...
I hear ya Cav as long as it's other peoples noses ;-)
It wouldn't be fun otherwise there Montana....
I love bodily functions. I'm vegetarian, practically speaking for the comment made by that doctor, and I don't have big dumps.
Here's a weird thing. When I go to the cape and drink my parents' tap water (which is tested regularly) my poop turns mysteriously into the most vile (worse than regular poop, wow!) mess ever. No one else has this problem. I can even drink bottled water, but if someone cooks with the tap water the same thing happens. The website's cape cod water expert says maybe it's sulfer.
Some mineral in that water doesn't like you.
eyep. But, why do I get to be the special one it doesn't like...?
Onto more bodily functions....
I used to sneeze discreetly and could never understand why older people let i all out and sneezed as loudly as a locomotive. Now I know. If you try to hold it in when you're old, you will either:
1. Fart
2. Give yourself a hernia
3. Pee your pants or
4. Bust an aneurysm.
5. I forget.
