Stupid anatomy

[clutchdust]

Having any part of the human body share the functions of eating and breathing is idiotic.
That is all.

I thought about titling this thread "A message to the Creator" but figured that wouldn't go over that well.

Get a little choked up, did ya?

[Silverspeed]

Breathe through your nose then.

Not to mention that the male cloaca for a combined genito-urinary system is less evolved than its female counterpart. Of course, my wife has been pointing out that males are less evolved than females for years.

Yeah, that helps. Still has to go through the same parts to get where it's going.

You mean like putting the dumper too close to the glory hole? Bad sanitation design!......

Sorry, I was just trying to help. I learned how to eat without choking when I was 3.

I did too. Just wait until shit don't work the way it is supposed to. <grrrr>

Feeding tube or intravenous FTW.

The way it's supposed to work:

YouTube - Normal swallow

Not me, but what happens every time I eat now:

YouTube - Intra swallow aspiration

Had the feeding tube. It sucked. But not as bad as choking on every fkn thing I eat.

[CertInsaneC5]

That sucks. Anything they can do about it?

[clutchdust]

Dunno yet. When I had the eval, the tech said I had some "webbing", scar tissue, in my throat. She said it might be removed surgically, but I haven't talked to an actual doctor since the eval.
I swear I actually choked on pancakes this morning. Fkn pancakes!!!! <Aaaahhhh!!!!>

I haven't been confused enough times to consider rearranging my body parts.

Man, my docs tell me if this is the worst thing that happens to me now, I need to just STFU. Better than cancer, right?

True that. But I would think getting food and liquid down the wrong tube would be a health risk that they would want to address. Maybe I am missing something here.

I remember Redd Foxx saying God must have had a sense of humor because he took something that leaked snot and mounted it upside down right over our mouth.

Did you ever think about slowing down and actually chewing your food before swallowing? On a serious note, if you are having this much trouble eating and choking all the time I think you should see a doc for a swallowing evaluation.
