(3,784 posts)I remember one time years ago, I took an anti-diarrheal to slow down the runs. I apparently took too much, because I was in the bathroom for over an hour trying to pass a cinder block that was..........well, let's just say that there was no way that couch was going to fit through that doorway on moving day.

(16,172 posts)a day when a friend and I took a day off school, skipped really, and dried banana peels in his mom's oven. Like she didn't notice the smell of banana cream pie when she came home from work..
Ahhh, the good old days.
