Hahaha! We have a kidney stone problem in my family and my brother went into the ER with a "kidney stone" and was informed he was just full of shit. I laughed so hard! It was great. He had to drink this crap they gave him and we kept the bathroom open for him alone all night.

I love it. Hubby is constipated all the time. He's full of shit too. :-)

Oh I'd have so much fun all the time. I always make sure I pooped before I claim kidney stone, though, I've never had the issues my brother has

Hello spitfire, A funny play on words, especially:
none worth a shit
(just like many world leaders)
sf, you're on a roll with the potty humor. Perhaps, there's a potty-time poetry books in your future????
Smiles, LateBloomer

I'll bet there is, LB. I'm sure they would be labeled for the Bathroom only.
Comment from Glasstruth
LOL. Great picture. The guy in the picture didn't do his research. Laxatives aren't worth much, should try herbal products. Of course, the medical community doesn't want that. There's no money in it. Humorous to the max! Les

Thanks, Les. Herbal products just might do the trick.

Not what one might call a moving poem; somewhat constipated in fact. Well known phrases and sayings that have lost their original meaning are fertile ground for the short-distance poet. Your aphorism sure brings this one back to life!

You got that right. New life to old clichés. :-)
Comment from Eigle Rull
HA HA! This was outrageously funny. The picture really drives the message through. Straight to the point, as usual. I loved it. Funny as hell!
Always with respect,

your senryu are becoming so skillfully honed. Where did you get that a picture.?What a hoot. Constipated rhythm, a memorable opening. Not something one would want to admit to, but I can relate. lol

My hubby's problem, not mine. In fact, he said the last line and I built the senryu. Picture is Google images. Jeff Daniels in a scene from Dumb and Dumber.
Comment from judiverse
So many different kinds of laxative. Who would have thought? It is amazing the choice of products we have. Sometimes we have to decide on flavor, gel cap or caplet, etc. I can't believe not one of the bunch wouldn't work. Writer's block has definitely gone too far. One of my aunts believed in enemas. I stayed out of her way. judi

Oh Judi, sometimes I have to give hubby one. He's in such pain. They don't really work either. I wonder if he has a blockage in the intestines. The doctor doesn't seemed concerned. Sigh...

It looks like the doctors should be able to find the cause. Castor oil was another remedy favored when I was a child. judi

This is really a funny senryu. It's hilarious to imagine that one would be so constipated that ten laxatives wouldn't work.

It's ten different brands. I guess some are less effective than others. Maybe I could do a poll. LOL
Thanks for dropping by.

I will never forget that scene in dumber and dumber...your senryu is another one of your double entendres, funny and yet too true....you have a keen sense of humor, Shari. How's the book coming...I have enjoyed each chapter.

Thanks for the super review. I'm trying to finish my script right now, but will post another chapter about Mom next week.
Comment from Dean Kuch
Hah-ha-a-a-aaaaaaaaaaaaaa! That's a great scene with Jeff Daniels from Dumb & Dumber, Shari. Sure, it is raunchy toilet humor, but it is hilarious raunchy toilet humor, heh-heh. Nice play on words, very nice. It certainly sounds like a worthy cause to start a movement for, LOL.

I remember how my parents detested Red Skeleton for his scatological humor. Poor Dad, especially, would be so em- bare-assed by this. :-)

My dad loved Red Skelton.
