So maybe it's just me, but when we have a shooting in this country the forums become a political and sometimes religious mess. Me being a mod and also an active and outspoken member I tend to sometimes get in the mix.
So this is about my lunch today. I was working at my office and got hungry. I didn't have any food, and I was feeling kinda lazy so I considered lunch options. I have quite a few fast food joints mere minutes away so I fired up their online menus. I ALMOST went with the McDonalds Big Mac meal as I've never had one (@etrain16) but after looking at the nutrition info I bailed. So I stopped at 7-11 to grab a vitamin water instead. Browsing the cases I see their sandwiches (7-11 branded no less) and spot a tuna sandwich. I thought, gee that has to be better than a Big Mac and I happen to like tuna. So I bought it and my vitamin water and went back to the office. It wasn't bad taste wise, and I thought again I made the right choice.
Fast forward a few hours. My belly is actually swollen and bloated. I'm 6'1" and 220. No big boiler, no roll over the belt, but I could lose a few pounds. BUT, I could actually see my belly sticking out and I felt awful.
No problem I thought, I'll go to Noble Woods park and walk it off.......yeah. Right.
I didn't make it more than maybe 100 steps past the restroom and I start to heave. And heave. And then yeah, a fountain of puke emerges from my face as an old man walking his dog approaches. I launch a stream well past the trail edge and I hear him talking but I'm violently expelling my "healthy" lunch and can't make out the words. After about five "fountains" I stop, because the pond is empty. And he's asking me if I'm ok or need a doctor. I instantly felt better and explained the situation. He asked again if I was ok, and we parted ways.
Anyway, just thought I'd share. I think the runs from the Big Mac would have been better.
