i have a few really obvious defects that are a part of my character and being somewhat obsessive is certainly one of them. sometimes my preoccupations are directed at people i will probably never meet (kanye west, ridiculous celebrities), but other times they are concerned with horrifying yet highly unlikely possibilities. for example, when i was fourteen, i found out that honda is manufacturing robots, and there is chance that these machines could become a part of our society. naturally, i started considering what would happen if these bitches malfunction and kill and/or sabotage their owners, and for a good three years i was regularly haunted by the prospect of evil robots. i am sort of over it, at this point. but i still don't feel like i ever need to see that will smith movie that is basically an enactment of this fear.
as the saying goes, out with the old semi-irrational fear, in with the new. i recently was made aware of a bodily phenomenon known as a "prolapse," which is best described, i guess, as an event where certain organs that should remain on the inside of your body, fall out of place and then suddenly become visible to outside viewers. i think the most terrifying and well-known kinds of prolapses are those of the anus and uterus. YOUR ASSHOLE AND VAGINA , ladies, CAN TURN THEMSELVES INSIDE OUT.
i know it sounds scary, but wait till curiosity gets the better (or worst, i'd say) of you, and you decide to google for pictures. i know i am prone to speak in hyperbole, but it is seriously the most fucking horrifying thing i have ever laid eyes upon and makes me want to die. the worst one was a picture of a man whose anus prolapsed while he was doing some heavy weightlifting. and i cannot get it out of my head. all day i've been having visions of these godawful pictures, praying that my anus and vagina stay strong and never let anything fall out of there, other than the usual things.
what is most shocking is that you never really hear about this shit, but i'd say it's far more terrifying than cancer or aids, which you hear about all the time. i think we need to invest more in cultivating prolapse awareness and how to prevent it. because no one should ever have to see, let alone experience something so incredibly disgusting.

To be quite honest, I actually saw a similar anal prolapse picture about 4 or 5 years ago, and I had just forgotten about it until I stumbled across this lovely blog you decided to post.
Thank you for the memories that I had just about eradicated so lovingly from my mind.
But seriously, this is a hardcore issue, and maybe we should lobby Obama about it. I would like to know what steps he would make, as president, to raise body part prolapse awareness. If my vagina decides to turn itself outwards, what is he going to do for me? Surely the reconstructive surgery would be pricey. Would my insurance cover it? Could I get some Medicare up in this bitch?
Just some questions, you know.
Also, I love you.
