He was a trip. He had all kinds of funny sayings like this.

I was getting up to take some medicine and I started to rub my belly, and itch it like a bear waking from hibernation, and I noticed my belly felt like I was about 3 or 4 months along in a pregnancy my belly was so bloated.

I'm certainly not washing my clothes on my tummy or anything, but normally my belly is pretty cut, or at least lean and tone. 

As I was chuckling to myself and scratching my big ol belly, I thought of the dickeedoo disease. Thought it would be a fitting title.


Anywhere,
I had a large portion of my colon removed 5 years back now. There's something I've noticed every time I eat any dairy now. I had had a bowl of Life cereal before I had laid down earlier. It's usually a lot worse if it's milk that I've had, but cheese has the same affect on me now.

This isn't something I've noticed before in my life, but it may have been something I didn't really pick up on before my stomach issues.

I'm wondering of this is something like lactose intolerance. If it is its new to me.

I have noticed a big change I milk since around 2020, and that's all the milk I've been buying has been expiring way before the expiration dates. Sometimes a week+ before the date.

I don't know if that is the issue, but I sure have noticed that after having one bowl of cereal it looks like I'm pregos. After two bowls of milk I've got full blown dickeedoo disease. 

Anyone else getting bloated like a beach ball after eating dairy? The milk being weird about expiring way too soon has me questioning what the cause is.

A doctor would tell me it's just from the surgery. 

I'd like to know of anyone is experiencing something similar, or if I've just become lactose intolerant. 

Does this mean I'm racist towards milk now?

If you lay off the dairy, how long does it take the bloating to disappear? Or does it disappear at all now? I might have to give it a try to see what happens, if yours deflates in a reasonable amount of time.

I don't drink cow's milk. My body can't handle it.

I have a family member that used to work at a distribution center that transported milk. He said after his first day of being on the job, he could not ever drink milk again.

I am leery of anything that is mass produced. Quality control is bull. All kinds of stuff accidentally ends up in the end product. We won't even begin to talk about the stuff that is put in deliberately.

The question I came to is, "I wonder if they were so interested in the anal inspection as a way of figuring out how to kill us slowly through our colons."

Just a late night rambling thought I had rattling around.

For example, "corned beef" is "corned" and preserved by adding potassium nitrate. Potassium nitrate (A.K.A. "saltpeter"), coincidentally, is the biggest component in black powder, a 'low" explosive. It's roughly 70% or 75% of that mixture, with the remainder being charcoal and sulfur. The 15% portion of charcoal is what actually burns, and the 75% of potassium nitrate provides the oxidizer to allow the charcoal to "conflagrate" - burn real fast, fast enough to explode - in the anaerobic (or anoxic) environment of a gun chamber. That can't be a good thing to eat, can it?

They used to feed small amounts of black powder to guard dogs to make them meaner, by adding it to their food rations. it made them meaner because it kept their stomach torn up with ulcers. That'd make anybody mean, wouldn't it?

I once pulled a week of security duty at a facility that made the concentrate for Wendy's "Frosties", because they were the subject of a specific threat. I used to love me some Frosties, but after that it was years before I could force myself to choke one down. Now it's a lot easier to forego them, because fast food joints have priced themselves right out of my wallet.

I love me some corned beef, too... but these days I eat it only sparingly, every couple of years. I think, as of today, it's been around 3 1/2 or 4 years since I've eaten any of it.
