Needing jokes/comments to make when I am audibly shitting myself. Any suggestions?

In a few months I’ll be in diapers, but I’ve been told that modern adult diapers are pretty good at their job/probably will muffle it more.

I thought that last line was supposed to be another joke and I just didn't get it until I read the replies.

Unfortunately not. But as far as "for life" diseases go, crohns is a good one. I go to the hospital every two months, get a few thousand dollars of special sauce in an IV, and I'm basically symtom free. 30 years ago I'd be slowly and painfully dying as they cut out bits of bowel bit by bit.

My only complaint is that they are very expensive, so without a first world socialised medical system, they are out of reach financially.
