What the hell is diverticulitis?

PrintI had to know more about the condition that's sidelined Brock Lesnar twice now so I did a little research on Diverticulitis. Oh boy, do I regret it. The description of the disease itself is nauseating, but when I started looking at pictures is when things went downhill quickly.
Here's the 10 cent version. When someone doesn't eat enough fiber, they have to strain too hard when they poop. This causes bulging sacs (hee hee, sacs) in the colon (hee hee, colon). The sacs are called diverticulum. Diverticulitis happens when bacteria (poop) gets caught in these sacs. They can rupture and then the bacteria in your colon spreads to the tissue surrounding it.
I wish you all could have seen my face as I typed that. Bad stuff. I often say, "You have to take care of your pooper." And it's so true people. Take care of your damn pooper. Eat fiber. You really need to eat fiber. Taking a dump shouldn't be akin to going into battle. If it is, you need to eat more damn fiber. That's my public service announcement for the day.

Brock realized his diet sucked
Meat and potatoes. All protein, all starch. Very little roughage. When he received his diagnosis, he modified his diet, and I have noticed on this season of TUF, he is a lot smaller than our usual hulking Brock.
Vegetables are good for you. Big green ones. Remember that!
He should just have grape nuts for breakfast
It’s what I do. A cup of grapenuts and a cup of coffee to start the day, and you can eat meat and starch all day and be fine

P.S.
it was incredibly difficult not to make a comment about taking care of Beth’s pooper…
Shit! I totally just made the comment doh

regular colonics and enemas would seem to help the situation.
Jon " Bones " Jones new UFC light heavyweight champion. Even if Jones got struck flush in the face he would recover and defeat whoever is in front of him. I told everyone the fight would be easy. Anderson Silva would never fight "Bones". He is too scared to fight the real P4P champion. Nick Diaz, the man who will prove to the MMA world that he is the best WW in the world. Oswalds smack is weaker than the alcohol content of Utah beer.

These digestive/colon/intestinal issues are so not fun to talk about but they’re so common! It’s kinda scary. Since I’ve started paying attention recently, I’ve heard about quite a few of my otherwise healthy friends who’ve developed problems. It kinda makes me wonder about what we’re all really eating (even if we think it’s healthy).
Honey badger don't care.

It's the addition of the (no sarcasm) that makes me think you're being sarcastic.
I’m kind of a freak that way.

Poor Brad. I love his voice.
I just found my old cd and I’ve been listening to it nonstop for a week. Seed is still my favorite song on their self titled album but people would have a wtf moment if I tried quoting it.
