The question everyone is asking.

David Begley म्हणाले...: Only the NYT is asking THAT question.

And only the NYT COULD ask that question.

And at the same time the Middle East is on fire and HRC has exposed our national security secrets to our enemies.; १०/१०/१५, ९:०३ AM
Phil 314 म्हणाले...: It actually is an important question

Laslo Spatula म्हणाले...: "Should We Bank Our Own Stool?"

That's gonna make for some messy ATMs.

Note: there are two meanings to ATM, one of which is filthy and yet on topic, too.

I am Laslo.; १०/१०/१५, ९:२० AM
Bob Boyd म्हणाले...: I'd worry about bank runs.; १०/१०/१५, १०:१४ AM
Brill म्हणाले...: A new fad? His and hers little viles of stool on a gold chain worn around the neck. It might be as popular as the Pet Rock.; १०/१०/१५, १०:१७ AM
Bob Ellison म्हणाले...: All that glitters is not gold.; १०/१०/१५, १०:२७ AM
Bay Area Guy म्हणाले...: No, next question.

Another reason to ignore the NYTimes.; १०/१०/१५, १०:२८ AM
Michael K म्हणाले...: The fool of a writer should have PE tubes put in his son's ears. This is managed care at its worst.

My daughter was a "failure to thrive" at age 2 and I finally took over her care, got her to a good ENT, he put tubes in her ears and she grew six inches in the next year.

HMO medicine.; १०/१०/१५, १०:३२ AM
Bob Ellison म्हणाले...: This thread is getting deep.; १०/१०/१५, १०:३८ AM
Bob Boyd म्हणाले...: The deposit slips come on a roll.; १०/१०/१५, १०:४० AM
Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together म्हणाले...: But Michael! It's the question "EVERYONE" is asking! (According to Althouse).

For anyone that cares, no one with any knowledge (that I know of) is proposing - let alone advocating - any such thing. What's described is a last-ditch effort for people who have pseudomembranous colitis that's recalcitrant to every known antibiotic, a toxic gut (and [intensely] diarrheal) disorder, obviously and intimately connected to gut microbiota, and nothing to do with ear infections.

But without the gotcha post, that would have been one less blurb in her daily town-crier roster. Which would have been completely unacceptable.; १०/१०/१५, १०:४४ AM
Bob Boyd म्हणाले...: Everyone in the bank was focused on their bowels when the masked man burst through the door shouting, "Nobody move!"; १०/१०/१५, १०:५० AM
Wince म्हणाले...: Should we bank our own stool?"

I already do, next to my collections of boogers, dandruff and toenail clippings.

What? Why that look?; १०/१०/१५, ११:५८ AM
rehajm म्हणाले...: 85 year old man says, 'I went to the doctor and he asked me for a blood sample, a urine sample, and a stool sample. So I left him my underwear.'; १०/१०/१५, १२:०८ PM
Charlie Currie म्हणाले...: When will Colorado de-regulate shit...that's the question I'm asking.; १०/१०/१५, १२:२० PM
rhhardin म्हणाले...: Kenneth Burke had a stool poem, returned by an embarrassed poetry journal editor without comment. Burke felt it was too adjectival.

There was an island of Antiquity,
Well-favored with an equitorial sky,
Where Babylonic galleys used to lie,
And inland music sounded cumbrously.

Though long accustomed to such clemency,
It felt obscure disturbances, whereby
Emitting a huge geologic sigh
It lurched, and gently sank beneath the sea.

In marbles now, in pale aquatic hues,
Stand aimless, posturing on heavy floors
Where parchments waver, limp and yellowish,
And houses front on darkened avenues
Bearded with sea-growth, promenades for fish
With mournful faces peering through the doors.; १०/१०/१५, १२:४८ PM
William म्हणाले...: I wonder if the person who perfects this therapy will win a Nobel. He should call it fecal tissue research. He's sure to get huge funding grants from the PC crowd.; १०/१०/१५, १:१३ PM
Rusty म्हणाले...: Well, shit.; १०/१०/१५, १:५६ PM
retired म्हणाले...: Didn't read the article for the same reason I don't eat stool lying along the road. The writer must have been inspired by The Martian.; १०/१०/१५, २:१२ PM
Etienne म्हणाले...: ही टिप्पणी लेखकाना हलविली आहे.; १०/१०/१५, ३:०७ PM
rhhardin म्हणाले...: Tim Blair in a recent podcast marvelled at a telecast of a surfing contest where a shark attacked a competitor and the announcer said "Holy shit!"

The announcer later apologized for the language. The shark attack wasn't important by comparison.

The social graces prevail.

This should be in the turkey thread probably.; १०/१०/१५, ४:०५ PM
Doug म्हणाले...: "I mean, he's REALLY broke ... he doesn't have SHIT in the bank!"; १०/१०/१५, ५:०७ PM
CStanley म्हणाले...: I've had C diffand it is so bad that I would have willingly taken this cure.; १०/१०/१५, ७:३० PM
LTMG म्हणाले...: If we worry about this, life must otherwise be very good and we have no troubles.; ११/१०/१५, १:०० AM
