“Hey do you know Jerry Jones?”
“The owner of the Dallas Cowboys? Yeah sure.”
“No, not the real Jerry Jones, the other one.”
“There’s another one?”
“Yeah the guy who writes the blog about culture . . . “
blank stare
“He talks about China (nothing) . . . and faking Chinese (zip) . . . and adoption (nope) . . . and diarrhea”
“OHHHH Yeah the diarrhea blogger! He owns the Dallas Cowboys?! I did not know that.”
Such fame is not even on my radar . . . but this is too rich to pass up. Following my last post (The Diarrhea Clinic and Why I Think it’s Funny) this video was shared with me further proving my point that while diarrhea may not be funny to every culture it is indeed funny to our culture no matter what culture speaks (or sings) of it.
Watch it and try not to laugh but don’t stop watching before the song. You won’t regret it.
And I promise – no more diarrhea anytime soon. At least on the blog.
Oh. My. Gosh.
First of all, that might be baby sign language at the end. Do you think we can teach the little kids to do those four simple moves when they’ve got a bad case of diarrhea?
Second, there might be other cultures with silly little songs about diarrhea. And family sing-a-longs, well my brother and sister performed this one at a family “talent show” with all the cousins at the beach house a few summers ago…

This “diarrhea” posting Completely useful..good source, thanks anyway!
I enjoy your blog. I lived and worked with my family on the Tibetan plateau in Western China for a few years. We now are in Albania. Long before that, I was in the Holy lands and, after eating something called “Peter’s fish” was inspired to write a song based on the subject above. It’s called “My Country Song”, thought you might enjoy it:

I have since written a verse dedicated to my time in China (got giardia a few times) and I’m sure an Albanian verse will be in the works before too long. 🙂
