1. OMG! Is that you in the hottub?

or are you the guy to the right of the question mark?

3. LOL-NO

Hahaha

I heard an ad for this coming to work on the Paul Harvey show. It had to be the oddest commercial I have ever heard so I looked it up when I got to work.

I'm sure this is a very serious matter to those who suffer this but it was a real eye opener first thing in the morning.

15. The guy in the tub looks like Dixie Carter's husband, Hal... something.

17. Hal Holbrook?

I didn't know he had a malfunctioning Kock Pouch.

2. This isn't the advertisement you were cast in is it?

:scared:

[underpants]

4. No but I love the graphics

especially the coffee drinking guy and the two girls sharing a secret. What on earth does any of that have to do with this?

[GOPisEvil]

6. What about the two guys looking at Playboy?

They've got it disguised in a book. Smart. No one else does that.

7. I almost lost my colon to UC when I was 11. Thank heavens for prednisone

or I'd be wearing a colostomy bag right now.

10. As posted above

I heard an ad for this on the radio and it was a real eye opener first thing in the morning.

I had to look it up when I got into work and I could not figure out what in the world those graphics had to do with the subject.

12. Well, it was better than the alternative, which was shots of the

effects of having the disease. Now THAT'S an eye opener. :P

8. There's oddness in a person named Underpants posting bowel disease links.

Make no mistake, I have loved you for a long time, but that combo made me wince this early in the day. :)

9. As a sufferer of Crohn's I actually find these things frightening

everytime I have a flair up I worry about things heading in that direction.

14. I know what you mean, and yet I still only take my meds when I am sick. I

don't know why. I suppose for the same reason that I will have to get skin cancer before i commit to slathering sunblock on myself every time i want to go outside.

16. I've lived with this for 40 years and I've yet to get a medicine that

actually works all that well, which is part of why I relate so personally to these images...
