Well, I am a Christian, and that stuff is just discusting to me. I mean, it's natural and stuff, but the way people use it... A lot of stuff on this thread bothers be sometimes, but I'm willing to tolerate it for some of the laughs I get!

Well, everyone has something that bugs them. I'm horrified by the machine gun references, but I understand that people see things in different ways and if someone can find a way to make guns funny, then more power to them. We need more laughter in the world.

Many of us are Christians .... potty humor isn't morally wrong, you may not find it funny, but it's not un-Christian.

In fact, the Bible has some of the funniest stories! There's one about a guy leaning against a tree and a bird poops in his eye ... he loses his sight from it (that part is not funny).

God definately has a sense of humor.

Yeah, you can say that again. I just think it's discusting to be joking about this kinda stuff. And about the homosexuals, sex, things like that. I try to tolerate it, but... yeah. Some of the stuff is really funny. (what is with teh yeti?)

I am so glad everyone has a sense of humor about different things. I think that alone is what gets us through the day. I enjoy the humor we have in my office at work, and I enjoy the humor on this thread. Both are humor in different ways but I still walk away laughing.

thanks everyone for making this thread part of my daily laugh!

So here is a funny picture for you all. We went to Red Robin for lunch at work today....to celebrate an Un-birthday...or so I was led to believe. Turns out they had a surprise bridal shower for me. Anyway, there was a mess of balloons and all, and now my big Coon cat is tangled up in them since he was playing with the strings. It is such a funny picture :)

Hey- I'm a former Catholic and a current Buddhist and I love jokes about my religion:

What happens when a Buddhist becomes totally absorbed with the computer he is working with?

A: He enters Nerdvana. :D:lol:

I definitely think God has a sense of humor!!!!!!!

Uncle Ray- I think he's scared and with GOOD reason! But here's his latest:

SENIOR DRESS CODE

Many of us "Old Folks" (those over 50, WAY over 50, or hovering near 50) are quite confused about how we should present ourselves. We are unsure about the kind of image we are projecting and whether or not we are correct as we try to Conform to current fashions. Despite what you may

have seen on the streets, the following combinations DO NOT go together and should be avoided:

1. A nose ring and bifocals

2. Spiked hair and bald spots

3. A pierced tongue and dentures

4. Miniskirts and support hose

5. Ankle bracelets and corn pads

6. Speedos and cellulite

7. A belly button ring and a gall bladder surgery scar

8. Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart monitor

9. Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge

10. Bikinis and liver spots

11. Short shorts and varicose veins

12. Inline skates and a walker

And last, but not least...my personal favorite

13. Thongs and Depends

I 100% percent agree! The priest at our church right now always tells a joke or funny story before his sermon. Laughter is a gift. Laughter has been a huge help to me in the last year of my life, not to mention this last week while I was suffering the consequences of a glutening. It think it's great that different people have different types of sense of humour.

6. Speedos and cellulite

I worked as a lifeguard while in high school and this rule was unfortunately broken way too many times.

Amanda, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! You must be very excited. My fiance and I are hoping to get married early next year. Do you have a honeymoon planned?

Perhaps your purpose is spreading the word on the oft-ignored gluten/mental health connection.

You'd do it well.

Oh, boy :rolleyes: ....I'm a piece of work. In the context of this thread, I find it all hilarious: machine guns, yetis and their poop, T-bagging, 38 longs, Gay Chuck and the gang... nothing disgusts me.

Honeymoon plans are Cape May for 2 days

Our Maine Coon is actually a Maine Coon mix of some sort, he is 1 and 1/2 and he is huge! He weighs about 14 lbs. He is so loveable.

Now he is sitting in the window watching rabbits in the side yard of our walk-though. I am sitting on my bed....its football night and John is rooting on the NYG, his favorite team.

Well, Light, looks like it's just me & you. I'm not disgusted by it, but it just usually seems too easy, humor-wise.

LOL I *did* laugh at the CareBear's rainbow cloud fart tho. So if it's creative enough, I'll laugh, but most of the time I'm not particularly amused. It's just too EASY!!

<next one to proffer a simple fart joke has to shampoo the Yeti!!>

Is the Tangled Up in Coon pic up yet?

Buddhist jokes - I've always liked the hotdog vendor being told "Make me One with Everything".

Is there a genetic component to "bathroom humour," which only some have? (perhaps the same marker that lets only certain members of population detect the bitterness in cruciferous vegetables?)

:lol:

I absolutely believe that it's genetic. In my case, I got it from my father, who I think may hold the record for the longest fart in the history of the world. Or at least since Chuck Norris last had beanie wienies.

OK, I have to bring this up now. Maybe some of you guys that have been around awhile have seen other pictures of Susie. But to my recollection, I've only seen this one with her holding a glass of wine. So now I have a picture of her in my head of her Larry King interview while holding her glass of wine. In fact that is how I always picture Susie . . . because thats the only picture I've seen. Holding a glass of wine while she does her yard work. Holding a glass of wine while she walks the Dingos. Holding a glass of wine while rummaging through her trash. And sometimes I think . . . "Susie! You really shouldn't be drinking at 8:00 in the morning! Put down the glass of wine for Pete's sake!" :o:lol:

Well, I've seen LOTS of pictures of Susie Q, and you are right, in each and every one she is holding a glass of wine.

You should see the rock climbing ones, it's quite a skill to climb AND carry the glass of wine without spilling a drop.

Speaking of farts... You know how everyone (well everyone who thinks farts are funny ;) talks about the bathtub farts? Well, my son Ezra has actually done this, when he was 3 years old and I fell right over I laughed so hard. He was giggling, but I was dying like it was the funniest thing in the world- and then the smell hit! 3 years old and in the bubble bath all sweet and adorable, and suddenly these NOT SO LAVENDER SCENTED BUBBLES whoosh up.

My hubby heard the whole thing from the living room and was like... Was that what I think it was? Oh God I was incapacitated, I was laughing so hard.

By the way... :ph34r: Christian farts are funnier. :o

Well, I'm just joking around of course, but it is true you get that image of someone in your head based on their avatar.

It's just great to see you Susie Q well enough to be laughing and smiling and enjoying that glass of wine :D

      Wow what a helpful article!! I am just seeing this now but I hosted a small group of family for Thanksgiving at my house this year and I did some of these things- got a butterball gluten-free turkey, got gluten-free stuffing, had a few gluten-free sides, and a gluten-free nothing-Bundt-cake. I had other non gluten-free things there too for others, and I also...

      @BlessedinBoston, it is possible that in Canada the product in question is formulated differently than in the USA or at least processed in in a facility that precludes cross contamination. I assume from your user name that you are in the USA. And it is also possible that the product meets the FDA requirement of not more than 20ppm of gluten but you are a...

      Years  ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We  got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came down the road, laughed at our situation, then pulled the VW free of the mud. We followed him back to the ski area where where he started up the rope ski lift and we had an enjoyable hour of skiing and gave us a shot of aquavit  before we left.It was a great rescue.  In some ways this reminds me of your situation. You are waiting for a rescue and you have chosen medical practitioners to do it now or as soon as possible. As you have found out the med. experts have not learned how to help you. You face years of continuing to feel horrible, frustrated searching for your rescuer to save you. You can break away from from this pattern of thinking and you have begun breaking  away by using some herbs and supplements from doTerra. Now you can start trying some of the suggestions thatother Celiacs have written to your original posts.  You live with other people who eat gluten foods. Cross contamination is very possible. Are you sure that their food is completely separate from their food. It  is not only the gluten grains you need to avoid (wheat, barley, rye) but possibly oats, cows milk also. Whenever you fall back into that angry and frustrated way of thinking get up and walk around for a whild. You will learn ways to break that way of thinking about your problems.  Best wishes for your future. May you enjpy a better life.

      No,Lindt is not gluten free no matter what they say on their website. I found out the hard way when I was newly diagnosed in 2000. At that time the Lindt truffles were just becoming popular and were only sold in small specialty shops at the mall. You couldn't buy them in any stores like today and I was obsessed with them 😁. Took me a while to get around to checking them and was heartbroken when I saw they were absolutely not gluten free 😔. Felt the same when I realized Twizzlers weren't either. Took me a while to get my diet on order after being diagnosed. I was diagnosed with small bowel non Hodgkins lymphoma at the same time. So it was a very stressful time to say the least. Hope this helps 😁.

      @Jmartes71, I understand your frustration and anger.  I've been in a similar situation where no doctor took me seriously, accused me of making things up, and eventually sent me home to suffer alone.   My doctors did not recognize nutritional deficiencies.  Doctors are trained in medical learning institutions that are funded by pharmaceutical companies.  They are taught which medications cover up which symptoms.  Doctors are required to take twenty  hours of nutritional education in seven years of medical training.  (They can earn nine hours in Nutrition by taking a three day weekend seminar.)  They are taught nutritional deficiencies are passe' and don't happen in our well fed Western society any more.  In Celiac Disease, the autoimmune response and inflammation affects the absorption of ALL the essential vitamins and minerals.  Correcting nutritional deficiencies caused by malabsorption is essential!  I begged my doctor to check my Vitamin D level, which he did only after making sure my insurance would cover it.  When my Vitamin D came back extremely low, my doctor was very surprised, but refused to test for further nutritional deficiencies because he "couldn't make money prescribing vitamins.". I believe it was beyond his knowledge, so he blamed me for making stuff up, and stormed out of the exam room.  I had studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I switched because I was curious what vitamins from our food were doing in our bodies.  Vitamins are substances that our bodies cannot manufacture, so we must ingest them every day.  Without them, our bodies cannot manufacture life sustaining enzymes and we sicken and die.   At home alone, I could feel myself dying.  It's an unnerving feeling, to say the least, and, so, with nothing left to lose, I relied in my education in nutrition.  My symptoms of Thiamine deficiency were the worst, so I began taking high dose Thiamine.  I had health improvement within an hour.  It was magical.  I continued taking high dose thiamine with a B Complex, magnesium. and other essential nutrients.  The health improvements continued for months.  High doses of thiamine are required to correct a thiamine deficiency because thiamine affects every cell and mitochondria in our bodies.    A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function.  The cerebellum of the brain is most affected.  The cerebellum controls things we don't have to consciously have to think about, like digestion, balance, breathing, blood pressure, heart rate, hormone regulation, and many more.  Thiamine is absorbed from the digestive tract and sent to the most important organs like the brain and the heart.  This leaves the digestive tract depleted of Thiamine and symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency localized in the digestive system, begin to appear.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi include anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue, headaches, Gerd, acid reflux, gas, slow stomach emptying, gastroparesis, bloating, diarrhea and/or constipation, incontinence, abdominal pain, IBS,  SIBO, POTS, high blood pressure, heart rate changes like tachycardia, difficulty swallowing, Barrett's Esophagus, peripheral neuropathy, and more. Doctors are only taught about thiamine deficiency in alcoholism and look for the classic triad of symptoms (changes in gait, mental function, and nystagmus) but fail to realize that gastrointestinal symptoms can precede these symptoms by months.  All three classic triad of symptoms only appear in fifteen percent of patients, with most patients being diagnosed with thiamine deficiency post mortem.  I had all three but swore I didn't drink, so I was dismissed as "crazy" and sent home to die basically.   Yes, I understand how frustrating no answers from doctors can be.  I took OTC Thiamine Hydrochloride, and later thiamine in the forms TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and Benfotiamine to correct my thiamine deficiency.  I also took magnesium, needed by thiamine to make those life sustaining enzymes.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins, so the other B vitamins must be supplemented as well.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   A doctor can administer high dose thiamine by IV along with the other B vitamins.  Again, Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine should be given if only to rule Gastrointestinal Beriberi out as a cause of your symptoms.  If no improvement, no harm is done. Share the following link with your doctors.  Section Three is especially informative.  They need to be expand their knowledge about Thiamine and nutrition in Celiac Disease.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test for thiamine deficiency.  This test is more reliable than a blood test. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling.  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Best wishes!
