Re: An episode from my life
I met one of my favorite musicians at a strip bar & he wasn't happy I recognized him.
Not gonna say who he was....but that was a weird experience.

Re: An episode from my life
I was wondering the same. Apparently it’s ‘vintage’ and collectible now?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Ex-Lax-Vint....m46890.l49292
Only $84.99 with free shipping for a three pack.
I know they make little chocolate tabs, like when you break a Hershey’s bar apart. Might be a good idea to invite the people from the neighboring HOA over so we can all make s’mores together.

^^^Even those 'antiques' are still the chocolate tabs.
Re: An episode from my life
I’m somewhat embarrassed to admit the amount of time I’ve put into this. I did think this was kinda funny

I haven’t found Ex-Lax brand gum laxative, but gum laxatives apparently do (or did) exist

Also found a commercial on YouTube fir it from 1970

They made mints, too! All my thoughts on this are going towards the nefarious.
Re: An episode from my life
Yeah, I stayed away from that shit after that (Pun intended). Haven't had any of that CRAP after that episode. I learned my lesson.
At any rate, I was like 10 or 11. They made Ex-Lax gum at that time. I found out the hard way. I don't know if they make it now. I don't know how long Grandma had it up there, though.

Never got distressed that way from chewing gum, but I really only ever chew Juicy Fruit.
We do Taco Tuesday where I work, which is a nice perk of my job. I remember one week when the owners of the taco truck that normally comes in were on vacation, so we tried a new one. We had to keep all the shop doors open, with the number of people we had (and the size of some of them, as well). I had to stop at Walgreen’s on my way home, and I was standing in line, another one began percolating. So I’m struggling to hold this thing in… the cashier even asked if I was alright. I somehow made it outside, checked quick to see if the coast was clear, and just let off this huge “BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT!” (that was the condensed version). Then I heard this cackling laughter behind me, turned around, and there was a family of four that had just walked around the corner. The kids were hysterical. I was mortified. So I ran to the opposite corner and around, then dashed to my car once I was certain they were inside, then drove the long way around the building so they wouldn’t see me if they came out while I was making my getaway.

I was once, a while ago, dating this Blonde (Whom shall remain nameless). She was pretty irresponsible, but so was I (As will become apparent). She comes up to me while I'm sleeping wanting to borrow my car. Thinking nothing of it i gave it to her. Well, long story short, she gets hit by one of those cameras they had then running a red light. I get the ticket and refuse to pay it. I end up having to take time out of my day to go to Court. I have to sit there for hours. I finally get up there, and the Judge is all serious and stuff. I'm like "Can I see that picture?" They put it up on the Monitor. (My Car was a convertible) I look at it and then I ask "Do I look like a Blonde Woman?" (My hair is Brown). I didn't pay. Won the case.

Not the HOA, but early in my career, someone brought in a batch of Ex-Lax brownies to prank this nerdy old guy who always devoured anything brought in. Everyone else was warned not to have any. Saw him rushing to the men's room, then he went home for the day. Prolly lawsuit material today...
Re: An episode from my life
I was over at my older friend Bill's apartment when I was about 17, Bill's this hardcore conservative that had been in the Marine's that I used to play D&D with. He was probably 10 years older than me. His Brother, Hank, was there and drunk off his ass. Now Hank, when he was little, was probably praying to God "Please let me get bigger than Bill, Please let me get bigger than Bill," and God sure listened. Hank was a MONSTER. He'd joined the Army, and was home for a bit.
Well, my friend Derek (Whom was a couple years younger than me) was in a mood and starts fucking with Hank about his Girlfriend (Whom he would eventually marry). Derek was brutal, calling her a slut and stuff like that (Now, remember, Hank was ass-top drunk). I tried to get Derek to knock it off, because I could see what was going on with Hank. But apparently Derek couldn't.
After a little bit, Hank just hauls off and decks him. Derek couldn't even WALK after that. Hank was distraught, he'd just punched a 15 year old kid. He was probably seeing his commanding officer in his immediate future. I and my friend walked Derek home, practically carrying him, assuring Hank that nothing would come of this.
And that, kids, is why you don't fuck with a Drunk Soldier's Girlfriend.

And almost 85$, are you kidding me???
Re: An episode from my life
I once had a Girlfriend (Whom shall remain nameless) that had a Dog named Samantha. Samantha tried everything she could to please her but she beat the shit out of Samantha on a daily basis. Once she kicked her so hard she knocked her out! I was distressed. Eventually I just decided to go to her house and wait till the Dog got let out. When she did I went and got her. Put her in my car and drove her away. Samantha stayed with me for a while until I found her a home. Really sweet dog.
Dropped the Girlfriend, found the Dog a home (There were kids there). Sam's probably gone by now, but so is the Girlfriend, I just didn't want her anymore. Hopefully Samantha had a good life.
Usually you don't find this among Women, I was scratching my head!
