Hey OP, did you know that the voice of Ducky was a little girl named Judith Barsi? Did you know that Judith also voiced the little girl character, Anne-Marie, in All Dog Go To Heaven? And did you know that Judith Barsi was brutally murdered along with her mother by her father who then killed himself? And did you know that this murder happened between her lines being recorded and the release of either of these films? So when you fell in love with a little duck billed dinosaur saying "Yepyepyep" and a little orphan girl who talks to animals, you were listening to the echos of a voice of a murdered 10 year old girl.

Why did I bring this up, OP? Because you made me sad, so I'mma make you sad too.

RIP Judith

Damn the post calls people old and they need to see a doctor for butt stuff. And this response is to horrify and amaze.

“How dare this stranger bring up my slightly advanced age! Here’s a child that was brutally murdered. Now we’re even!”

[–] noseatbelt 49 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Wtf dude, I could have gone my whole life not knowing this. I hope your socks get wet.

Oh for fucks sake just kill them, no need to be unduly mean about it and pull unforgivable acts of torture.

Goddamn.

I respect the brutality, if nothing else

Even more fun, she was sexually assaulted by her father multiple times. Police were involved because of the constant abuse. It fucked with her psychologically, and her mother kept hesitating to take action

We go on and on about stranger danger, but family is where the danger is at 99% of the time and kids aren't taught about this nearly enough.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

OP didn't mean to make us sad :(

What did I do to you to deserve this aggression on such a nice morning?

OP is just looking after your health is all

For anyone wondering, this is the rain scene from Sausage Party (2016) when the chocolate eclair tries weed for the first time.

Get out of here you lying heathen!

I’m only 32. Is it really that early?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Oh I had my first one earlier than that!

Was your PhD in Proctology and you were on the other end?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

It felt like that.😅

But the truth is that the stress wounded my intestines.

Fuck you, I've still got 7 or 8 years left.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Jokes on you, I'm 40 and I've had 5 of them already.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 days ago (2 children)

High risk or just like the experience?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Colon Cancer runs in my family. I also have digestive illnesses that predispose me to colon cancer. So every 5 years since age 20.

If she doesn’t fuck with little foot then she’s too young for you

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You can be in college and still be over 40.

Just FYI for anyone that is wondering about colonoscopies:

The American Cancer Society recommends that people at average risk* of colorectal cancer start regular screening at age 45.

…the disease is rising sharply in people under age 50, most of whom are years away from getting their first screening

So get a colonoscopy. Got mine at 45, it was absolutely NBD. They give good knockout drugs if you like, you have a nice nap and that’s it. Even the laxative is a non-event (I got a doc that prescribed miralax and sports drink combo, some of the prescribed liquids are gross) and was super easy. The worst thing about it was being hungry and wanting a cup of coffee because you can’t eat before the procedure.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Tried to get one at 42 - they required a cola-guard screening first. Requested a cola-guard screening and insurance didn't cover it until 45. Tried to manually buy one - couple thousand dollars. So basically you can't start getting screened until 45.

That sucks. If you have any family history of polyps or colon cancer it might be worth trying again specifically mentioning those things if you have that option.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago

Yep, yep, RIP

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 days ago

Until now, it has been before time.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

Dam i thought it was 45

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 days ago

The 90s was really out here making us hungry for dang leaf. I'm not too proud to say I tried it, it was gross.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago

I literally confirmed a colonoscopy appointment 30 min ago and then see this on Lemmy.

What the hell?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Goddammit so true...I just had my first colonoscopy today 😬

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago (5 children)

[–] [email protected] 24 points 4 days ago (1 children)
