Hey OP, did you know that the voice of Ducky was a little girl named Judith Barsi? Did you know that Judith also voiced the little girl character, Anne-Marie, in All Dog Go To Heaven? And did you know that Judith Barsi was brutally murdered along with her mother by her father who then killed himself? And did you know that this murder happened between her lines being recorded and the release of either of these films? So when you fell in love with a little duck billed dinosaur saying "Yepyepyep" and a little orphan girl who talks to animals, you were listening to the echos of a voice of a murdered 10 year old girl.

Why did I bring this up, OP? Because you made me sad, so I'mma make you sad too.

RIP Judith

Damn the post calls people old and they need to see a doctor for butt stuff. And this response is to horrify and amaze.

[–] errer@lemmy.world 40 points 2 days ago

“How dare this stranger bring up my slightly advanced age! Here’s a child that was brutally murdered. Now we’re even!”

[–] noseatbelt@lemmy.ca 49 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Wtf dude, I could have gone my whole life not knowing this. I hope your socks get wet.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Oh for fucks sake just kill them, no need to be unduly mean about it and pull unforgivable acts of torture.

Goddamn.

I respect the brutality, if nothing else

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Even more fun, she was sexually assaulted by her father multiple times. Police were involved because of the constant abuse. It fucked with her psychologically, and her mother kept hesitating to take action

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 9 points 1 day ago

We go on and on about stranger danger, but family is where the danger is at 99% of the time and kids aren't taught about this nearly enough.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 days ago

OP didn't mean to make us sad :(

I’m only 32. Is it really that early?

[–] zloubida@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Oh I had my first one earlier than that!

(Don't do PhDs, people)

[–] m4xie@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Was your PhD in Proctology and you were on the other end?

[–] zloubida@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

It felt like that.😅

But the truth is that the stress wounded my intestines.

[–] double_quack@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

Fuck you, I've still got 7 or 8 years left.

What did I do to you to deserve this aggression on such a nice morning?

[–] Dagnet@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

OP is just looking after your health is all

[–] metaldwarf@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Jokes on you, I'm 40 and I've had 5 of them already.

[–] Toribor@corndog.social 23 points 2 days ago (2 children)

High risk or just like the experience?

[–] metaldwarf@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Colon Cancer runs in my family. I also have digestive illnesses that predispose me to colon cancer. So every 5 years since age 20.

[–] Toribor@corndog.social 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah I should have expected a serious answer but I couldn't resist. Glad you're taking care of yourself though. Cancer is awful.

[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

I'm 43 and I've had one.

Bloody stool so got checked out. Was nothing.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 19 points 2 days ago

If she doesn’t fuck with little foot then she’s too young for you

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

Dam i thought it was 45

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 63 points 2 days ago (1 children)

For anyone wondering, this is the rain scene from Sausage Party (2016) when the chocolate eclair tries weed for the first time.

[–] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago

Get out of here you lying heathen!

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

No tf it is not lol, I'm still in college

[–] Sonicdemon86@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You can be in college and still be over 40.

[–] philophilsaurus@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

Doctors HATE this one SIMPLE TRICK!

[–] LandedGentry@lemmy.zip 57 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

I don’t need one for well over 10 years. This movie ain’t that old (released 1988)

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 69 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Everyone knows you can only watch a movie on release and never after that point.

[–] LandedGentry@lemmy.zip 27 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (15 children)

Even then, it’s only 36 years old! Most people don’t get their colonoscopy until they’re 45 or 50. 40 if they’re more at risk.

TIL kid me was enjoying ancient movies

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Just FYI for anyone that is wondering about colonoscopies:

The American Cancer Society recommends that people at average risk* of colorectal cancer start regular screening at age 45.

…the disease is rising sharply in people under age 50, most of whom are years away from getting their first screening

So get a colonoscopy. Got mine at 45, it was absolutely NBD. They give good knockout drugs if you like, you have a nice nap and that’s it. Even the laxative is a non-event (I got a doc that prescribed miralax and sports drink combo, some of the prescribed liquids are gross) and was super easy. The worst thing about it was being hungry and wanting a cup of coffee because you can’t eat before the procedure.

[–] randon31415@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Tried to get one at 42 - they required a cola-guard screening first. Requested a cola-guard screening and insurance didn't cover it until 45. Tried to manually buy one - couple thousand dollars. So basically you can't start getting screened until 45.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

#insurancewin

That sucks. If you have any family history of polyps or colon cancer it might be worth trying again specifically mentioning those things if you have that option.

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 12 points 2 days ago

Yep, yep, RIP

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 7 points 1 day ago

Goddammit so true...I just had my first colonoscopy today 😬

[–] Neverclear@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 2 days ago

Until now, it has been before time.
