Well, there's another word that changed going over the pond I didn't know. Pit? Shouldn't that be pip?

colinspooky: Well, there's another word that changed going over the pond I didn't know. Pit? Shouldn't that be pip?

Pit = a large, central seed, as in peaches or plums.
Pip = one small seed out of many in a fruit, as in apples or oranges

Smugglin' seed from Cuba, eh? I say deport her. She'll get better health care.

I don't know, subby. I have a hard time swollowing this story.

The family calls it a gift from God, a second chance, a miracle.

The seed in her lung was a "gift" from him. It's such a miracle that he decided to let it finally come out and stop bothering her.

"The family calls it a gift from God, a second chance, a miracle."

What kind of insane god would want someone to inhale a seed and suffer for 30 years of labored breathing and coughing up blood??!! Yes, truly this is a miracle!

She sounds fat.

A year from now, she'll develop lung cancer in the spot where the seed was lodged....
 
2012-04-26 01:49:34 PM
If she could breath normally maybe she would have went scuba diving and been farked by a dolphin but because of her condition that never happened. Now do you see how God works?
 
2012-04-26 01:49:53 PM
How could you forget something like inhaling a huge fruit pit? Thirty years of uncomfortable breathing? Hard to swallow, if ye ask me.

I agree that it seems a little unlikely that such a huge seed could be in your airway for such a long time.

Welcome to Narcotic Trends and Terminology. I want to thank you, the police officers of this fair town for flying me out here, paying for my five star hotel room and telling me where the hookers work. It is my mission to bring you up to date information on drug crazes that you've never heard of before. That should be worth the $25,000 speaking fee I'm charging. Today, I would share with the police officers in the room the serious drug addiction of seed huffing.

Seed Huffing is twenty times more addictive than Meth. In 2009, it was responsible for 20% of the drug convictions in a place that's not here. Last year, that number jumped to 85%! Seed Huffing will be coming to this community and will destroy it if you don't act fast.

The basic Seed Huffer is a teen or post teen. They may appear normal but have a unnatural interest in plants, growing things, television, technology and/or other things. They may also be interested or use other drugs, legal or illegal. When a Seed Huffer, or Seeder as they are known gets the desire to huff seeds, they will become violent and have been known to steal to feed their habit. Seeders who also sell the drugs have been know to rob green houses.

Once the Seeder has the drug, they will begin to hyperventilate. This is known as prepping the chute. The idea is that they will create enough force to send the seed in to the lungs where the chemicals can be released directly in to the blood stream. At the appropriate moment, the seed will then be drawn in to the lungal area of the chestive location where body chemicals will begin to extract the addictive chemicals. These chemicals give the Seeder a short but powerful high.

Seeders that are high have been known to have incredible strength and do not respond to authority. Tasers have a limited effect on a full blown Seeder. Once a person has tried Seeding, they will become dependent on it. It is 100% addictive.

A practiced Seeder will know the different seeds and which ones provide a strong high. Dealers are known as Appleseeders and use modern communication devices like pay phones and pagers to communicate with their customers. If approached by a law enforcement professional, they will scatter their product to reduce the possibility of arrest. This is known as 'scattering the seed.'

This threat is coming to this area and you must be prepared to meet it head on. Only that way, we will have the same kind of success as we did in thwarting the Meth, Crack, Marijuana, cocaine and Pop Rocks 'n Cola epidemics.

Thank you.

cgraves67: I don't know, subby. I have a hard time swollowing this story.

What's wrong with the story? They got lots of quotes from the person making the claim. And I'm sure the doctor was just to busy to take the reporter's call. And there were probably no other doctors in town the reporter could check with to see if the story was plausible. Are you suggesting a reporter should work before typing? Where's the upside in that?

Try inhaling it.

In Cuba they told her to just go home and die. She came to the US where we have things like x-ray machines and they began trying to figure out what was happening with her. Yeah, I actually bothered to read the article.

My nephew started having nasal infections and breathing problems when he was around 2 or 3. Sick for years. One day, his mom is driving with him and he has a sneezing fit and something comes flying out of his nose. Black, moldy disgusting thing. Turned out to be a peanut that he must have stuck up his nose. He's fine.
/CSB
 
2012-04-26 02:20:43 PM
The act of coughing is something body does in order to expel foreign objects out.

The fact that a body coughs a seed or peanut out isn't a miracle. It's the entire reason we cough.

I know a middle aged guy who works construction jobs and inhaled a screw. Ya rly. His coworkers still aren't sure how he managed that one. He went to the hospital, where a nurse mentioned that usually when they have to remove something from someone's lung like that, the patient is a small child or a... ah... mentally challenged individual.

/another time he lost the tips of several fingers
//another time he fell off a ladder and broke his back
///still works construction, still alive somehow

Yeah, not very closely, apparently. In the article I read, the woman had been treated "countless times for pneumonia and athsma' for the past 28 years. She moved to the US in 1994, so that means for 18 of those 28 years, she was being treated by US doctors.

The way I'm scoring it:

Cuban doctors. 10 years of useless treatment. Zero actual help.
US doctors. 18 years of useless treatment (and a bogus cancer diagnosis). Zero help.

Feel free to continue with your fantasy, though. I especially like the part where you invented the part where the Cuban doctors "told her to go home and die".

I went back and re-read the article. At no point does it state that she does not have a potato growing in her "snatch", as you put it.

In Jamaica we called them Neesberry (spelling? who knows, I'm going phonetic).
They are very sweet and taste like they are stuffed with brown sugar.
