poopin' is cool...

[thoreau]

The Ya'll Turnative Morning Show on 95.7 The Wolf here at work - was "gifted" a box of "Colon Cleanse Kits" from Colonblow: the "all natural, go anywhere colon cleanse kit".

and they come into my office - Bob? have you ever had a Colon Blow? - oh dear lord.

and they've asked if I'd have a colon blow - then blog about it for the station.

a quick google of the product showed not only is it not FDA approved - all sorts of folks have had nasty issues and undesired affects with this stuff.

um - no - but, thanks.

WTF!

Blink, blink, blink, blink!!! Are they serious? Even if it is legit, I'm not sure I could take anything called Colonblow! Good grief.

Re: WTF!

[notdefined.livejournal.com]

OMG its real! I just found their website http://www.colonblow.com

Re: WTF!

[bootedintexas.livejournal.com]

be afraid they have a website;;;

http://www.colonblow.com/

Re: WTF!

[notdefined.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I had just found it. And they have a Yahoo storefront. You should visit the site and look at the photos! GROSS...

Re: WTF!

[bootedintexas.livejournal.com]

sadly already went to the site, and click on photos thinking it would be packaging. first photo almost made me drop my water.

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

ok. im better now

Re: WTF!

[notdefined.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Now would you honestly buy a product from a company that posts poop photos?

Re: WTF!

[madknits.livejournal.com]

I hadn't read all the comments and looked at the website.

The pictures were, um, gross. Yeah, that's a good word.

[bootedintexas.livejournal.com]

it reminds me of the old spoof commercial from SNL in the 80s.

"How many bowls of your cereal would it take to match the fiber in new "Colon Blow"?"

with Phil Hartman...very disturbing.

That "go anywhere" shit might work for the homeless on NYC streets, but not for me. And keep it out of the subways, please!

I'm just sayin'.

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

(police situation loudspeaker voice)
Sir - please step away from the colon blow and nobody gets hurt.

[that-dang-otter.livejournal.com]

Heh. I'd do it. Basically because I'm a perv.

I wrote (http://that-dang-otter.livejournal.com/404410.html) about this product in my blog a while back, can't find the entry now. It bears mentioning that the basic premise - that one's colon is full of impacted crud that needs to be removed by means like this - is definitively false.

However, I understand that this product is VERY entertaining.

[that-dang-otter.livejournal.com]

Duh, I obviously did find the entry before I finally posted this, just in a hurry right now. ;-)

[budmassey.livejournal.com]

I've heard that term for years, but I didn't know it was a real product, or that SNL had spoofed it. Let's see, putting something in my stomach called colonblow? No, but thanks for asking. LOL!

[broduke2000.livejournal.com]

Psst: "Colon Blow" was invented by Colon Powell, now that he's no longer head cheeze at the FCC.

Pass it on!

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

oooh I like this game - pssst: what was that again?

[broduke2000.livejournal.com]

OOPS!

That should have read: "Colon Blow" was invented by General Colon Powell's son Michael (row the boat ashore) (hallelujah) Powell now that he's no longer head cheeze at the FCC.

Pass it on!

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

got it.

[grizzlyzone.livejournal.com]

There is a similiar product called "Colonic Cleanse" that's heavily advertised on cable and radio in the off-hours. The rest, you REALLY DON'T wanna know.

ah yes.

[trouble94114.livejournal.com]

There was a Saturday Night Live faux commercial for Colon Blow, and Colon Blow 2000 (warning some admoninal distension may occur)

sort of a take off on a health kick many years ago regarding fiber...

Re: ah yes.

[bukephalus.livejournal.com]

Love your icon! I was about to steal it, but it looks more like you than like me.

Re: ah yes.

[trouble94114.livejournal.com]

Thanks... And thanks for the compliment too. generally speaking I don't feelin like I resemble the icon too much (every once in a while though, I catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror and have to look a second time. If you looked at my profile, the whole picture is there.. "Daddy" in a red leather wingback chair, in nothing but boots, boxers and a cigar. It was a "father's" day card I gave an aquaintence last year... he's got two young children and I wanted to make sure he got at least one REAL Daddy's day card...

[grizzlyzone.livejournal.com]

Besides, that's not the end you blow anyway.

[tbone1961.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU. I was sure someone just HAD to "go there" before I did.

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

this coming from a trombone player....

[tbone1961.livejournal.com]

within the context of the present discussion, we could always venture down the path of rusty trombones!!

[jhitchin.livejournal.com]

At least they didn't try to use that B.S. about John Wayne having 40 pounds of compacted fecal matter in his colon upon autopsy.

Seriously, some folks just have too much time on their hands.

[bukephalus.livejournal.com]

TMI! TMI!

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

I wasn't aware you had too much information on any subject... (wink)

curiouser and curiouser!

[bukephalus.livejournal.com]

Even Naked Man has his limits.

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

but(t) officer!

[apparentparadox]

But they have T-shirts! Can't you just imagine walking down the street wearing one?

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

um - not so much.

[lbbuzz.livejournal.com]

heheheheh... you said "But, thanks"... get it? "butt" thanks?!

Lordy, does it come in diet flavors and is a brush sold seperately?

Diet?

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

"I Can't Believe It's Not Colon Blow?"

Re: Diet?

[jhitchin.livejournal.com]

Why not? There's already "I Can't Believe It's Not Boy Butter!"

[pdsexton.livejournal.com]

When are heteros going to discover the shower shot??

[pdsexton.livejournal.com]

ColonBlow could also be a new slang term for a bootie bump, no???

[bruinwi.livejournal.com]

Colonblow....now with 25% more fiber than raw twine!

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

I just went and got caught up on Bear Like Me - CUTE - first time we've seen Forrest de-bear right?

[bruinwi.livejournal.com]

No, but it's been a while.

Forrest is usually firmly into his Bear-ness.

[eric-mathgeek.livejournal.com]

Just have to tell you I'm a fan of your strip, too. I don't think I'd mentioned it before... and I remember Forrest de-bearing when he got Andy to do the bear contest.

GREAT stuff. thank you.

[bruinwi.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

It's nice to know that I'm not the only one logging on to the strip. =o)

[lbbuzz.livejournal.com]

I just realized it say's "Poopin is cool"...

Is that because it has menthol added or do you drink with ice?? YIKES!

[mikeybill.livejournal.com]

Bizarre - your body is already so good at looking after itself, all this stuff about needing to "clean" out your gut is just marketing.

[grizzlyzone.livejournal.com]

Besides, doctors perform colonoscopies every day. If anyone had pounds of impacted... "stuff"... up in there, I'm sure the medical profession would know all about it.

And, since I used tbone1961's line before he could, I'll yield and let someone else make the next. (Greetz!)
