A Summary Of 2011 (Funny)


IrishHeart

Recommended Posts

A friend sent this to me...thought you guys would enjoy it. :lol:

As we approach the end of the year 2011, I want to thank all of you for your educational e-mails over the past year. I am totally screwed up now and have little chance of recovery.

I no longer open a bathroom door without using a paper towel, or have the waitress put lemon slices in my ice water without worrying about the bacteria on the lemon peel.

I can't use the remote in a hotel room because I don't know what the last person was doing while flipping through the adult movie channels.

I can't sit down on the hotel bedspread because I can only imagine what has happened on it since it was last washed.

I have trouble shaking hands with someone who has been driving because the number one pastime while driving alone is picking one's nose.

Eating a little snack sends me on a guilt trip because I can only imagine how many gallons of trans fats I have consumed over the years.

I can't touch any woman's purse for fear she has placed it on the floor of a public restroom.

I MUST SEND MY SPECIAL THANKS to whoever sent me the one about rat poop in the glue on envelopes because I now have to use a wet sponge with every envelope that needs sealing.

ALSO, now I have to scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason.

I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl (Penny Brown) who is about to die for the 1,387,258th time.

I no longer have any money, but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Bill Gates/Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.

I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me, and St. Theresa's Novena has granted my every wish.

I can't have a drink in a bar because I'll wake up in a bathtub full of ice with my kidneys gone.

I can't eat at KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes, feet or feathers.

I can't use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a water buffalo on a hot day.

THANKS TO YOU I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I forward an e-mail to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes.

BECAUSE OF YOUR CONCERN, I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains.

I no longer buy petrol without taking someone along to watch the car so a serial killer doesn't crawl in my back seat when I'm filling up.

I no longer use Cling Wrap in the microwave because it causes seven different types of cancer.

AND THANKS FOR LETTING ME KNOW I can't boil a cup of water in the microwave anymore because it will blow up in my face. Disfiguring me for life.

I no longer go to the movies because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS when I sit down.

I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me.

And I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica , Uganda , Singapore , and Uzbekistan ..

I no longer buy cookies from Timmies since I now have their recipe.

THANKS TO YOU I can't use anyone's toilet but mine because a big black snake could be lurking under the seat and cause me instant death when it bites my butt.

AND THANKS TO YOUR GREAT ADVICE I can't ever pick up $2.00 coin dropped in the parking lot because it probably was placed there by a sex molester waiting to grab me as I bend over.

I can't do any gardening because I'm afraid I'll get bitten by the Violin Spider and my hand will fall off.

If you don't send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next 70 minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 p.m. tomorrow afternoon, and the fleas from 120 camels will infest your back, causing you to grow a hairy hump. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next door neighbor's ex-mother-in-law's second husband's cousin's best friend's beautician . .

Oh, by the way.....

A German scientist from Argentina , after a lengthy study, has discovered that people with insufficient brain activity read their e-mail with their hand on the mouse.

Don't bother taking it off now, it's too late.

P. S.: I now keep my toothbrush in the living room, because I was told by e-mail that water splashes over 6 ft. out of the toilet.

me, neither....does anyone know about this guy??

Hmm...well I know that brown recluse spiders are sometimes called fiddleback spiders. They are very nasty critters. I also know that in the old days, some people would put rattlesnake rattles inside their violins on the theory that it would keep spiders away. (I don't think it worked very well though.)

Here in Australia it is just presumed anything snake, spider, bug like is poisonous and deadly :unsure:

My mums green house had an unidentified "something" which took weeks to identify. very strangely and unexpectably it was a turtle. After 10 years of drought it was a stange surprise. This very old turtle was returned to its likely home (big lake/dam nearby) and hope it will be an old sole for other turtles in the neighbourhood.

Funny :D

Also to Diandliam: This is the very reason I tell people I never want to go to australia.

They ask me if you could go anywhere in the world where would it be? I either say "Russia because its too cold for anything scary to live there, other then communists." Or "Anywhere but australia because they have poisonious air."

I'm pretty sure kangaroos are poisonious too. LOL

      If you replace the gluten products you normally ate with gluten-free versions, and I mean the breads, be careful, as many gluten-free products can be high in calories and low in nutrients (high carb).
    • Scott Adams
      If was eating less gluten between tests, it could account for the change in test results to false negative, but given all you shared celiac disease is the most likely explanation.   I also would try to avoid an endoscopy done on a child, especially given the positive blood test results along with symptoms when she eats gluten (tiredness is definitely one of many symptoms). If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, this is another indicator that she likely has celiac disease.

      Thank you I know I will be ok and it’s a journey but I think gluten free lifestyle will help me with a little weight loss as well cause I struggle with this everyday. We don’t know what’s gonna be thrown at us.

      Thanks for the information.  I get not using a biopsy to diagnosis.  In fact, when we had the original biopsy done, my husband and I were very hesitant and didn't understand the need for it.  The doctor kept telling us it was the only way to diagnosis Celiac, yet also said there's no other diagnosis that would have given her positive EMA-IgA and tTG-IgA results.  So, we didn't understand.  Her biopsy came back negative, but because she wasn't even 3 at the time, the dr said she didn't want to go too far down into her system, and it was possible the damage was there and just not biopsied.  So, still no clear answer, which was frustrating. I'm confused now though with these results.  Why did her EMA-IgA results suddenly come back negative after the first 3 tests all showed positive?  And why is her tTG-IgA going down?  Could it be as simple as lab error?  Does the actual number matter, or the fact that it is so positive tell us everything we need to know?  I don't want to scope her again.  She has no symptoms that we can pin point to Celiac, but also aren't sure of what we don't know.  Is her tiredness a symptom that we just aren't paying enough attention to?  If we decide these results are enough, and start taking away all gluten products, how will we know if it is truly Celiac?  Another bloodtest in 6 months with lower tTG-IgA numbers could mean the diet is working, but couldn't they also decrease on their own like they did this time?

      It’s tough when dietary needs collide like this—you’ve mastered gluten-free baking, only to hit another hurdle with your husband’s potato allergy! Since you prefer smoother textures (and oat flour is hit-or-miss), here are a few potato-free flour/blend options to try: Cup4Cup (Multipurpose or Wholesome blend) – Their standard version is cornstarch-based, but avoid their ‘Plant-Based’ blend (has potato). Better Batter Original – Rice- and tapioca-based; great for cakes/cookies. Anthony’s Goods Cassava Flour – Neutral taste, works well in blends (try mixing with a bit of xanthan gum). Namaste Perfect Flour Blend – Tapioca/sorghum base, though some find it denser—might work for heartier bakes. If you’re up for DIY blends, arrowroot starch + sorghum or brown rice flour can mimic potato starch’s binding. Texture preferences are so personal, so it might take some experimenting—but I hope one of these clicks for you! Would love to hear what works if you give any a try. We also have some recipes for your own flour mixes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-flour-mixes/ Happy baking!
