You people need to stop washing your hands so damn much. Build an immune system. Have only had the flu once in the last 8 years. I will lick my hand after touching the gas station counter.

Yes, I have been drinking... again.
 
Going back to buffet again tomorrow because already bought 2 tickets for tuesday and wed. Wish me luck. Will be easy on the intake though. No raws this time
 
Bad stuff is good too. Gives you practice for when some walking sack of disease sneezes on you.
 
I had something similar to you after eating a gas station breakfast burrito. The cramps and diarrhea shivers hit me while I was driving, trying to get out of downtown San Francisco on a Friday evening at 530. I came close to shitting my pants that day.

LOL So would you lick your hand after touching the knob on a urinal?

Not by choice but if I did I would not be worried about getting sick. I used to do plumbing for a living and still do some odd jobs here and there. You have not lived until someone flushes a load into your face.

Yeah, rotovirus/norovirus are bad. Very very bad. I dropped 10 pounds in about 6 hours one night when my daughters infant room was passing the gift of rotovirus. Good times *WERE NOT* had.

Nightmare scenario indeed.

I had that last year - after some messy events early on, I learned to leave a pan in the bathroom. Regardless of which feeling came on first (puke or shit), I just sat down on the toilet with the pan immediately available.


Ugh, so many times. Out both ends at once just leaves you feeling eviscerated and like the universe has left you to rot. Death always seems like a sweet merciful escape.

The even bigger nightmare scenario is when all three members of the household have said virus and there are only two bathrooms. Not much you can do at that point but grab a shovel and head outside.
 
Nothing's worse than stomach bugs. The stomach is so sensitive that it literally takes away your concentration from anything else when it's not working right. With colds, fevers, and general pain you can take medications to sooth the symptoms. When you get something like food poisoning, nothing helps with the cramps and constant "what ever's in me is going to get out of me at an amazing velocity" feeling.
