    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.

      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

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

          Only 36 years old…that means if you watched it when you were 9, when the movie was new (which was the style at the time) you’re 45, dude.

              Lol. Bullshit if you think 10 year olds were watching more pg13 stuff in the 80s/early 90s than cartoons and Disney animated films. That Era was land before time, little mermaid, Oliver and company, rockadoodle, all dogs go to heaven, secret of nihm, Aladin, etc.

              Also, just FYI, I am aware that like 3 of those movies aren’t disney flicks.

                  “Most kids were on to” is a direct inference into the statement that kids were no longer interested in watching G rated movies.

                  So right there, is the spot.

          Am 38 and my friend just got his first one. They’re recommending them younger now, 40-45.

            No, actually they recommended colorectal screening at 45, which includes blood tests, stool DNA, and stool tests. If those are abnormal, then you go visual.

            So basically you don’t need a colonocopy, nor is it recommended, unless something is unusual in the blood/stool or you are high risk.

              As long as you aren’t high risk, the brand in the US is Cologuard. Shit in a box and they mail it to a lab.

              Yes, blood and stool tests are not only just as effective for screening, they are they recommended tests.

                  Turns out they changed the suggestion for that too! Start with blood tests and go from there.

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

    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.

      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.

          Eh, Germany has it worse. You get a total of two in your life, earliest at age 50 and they must be >=10 years apart.

          Gotta love “socialized” health insurances whose legal priority is remaining economical.

          Beats not having any health insurance though.

        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.

    The 90s was really out here making us hungry for dang leaf. I’m not too proud to say I tried it, it was gross.
