Anyone know of a home remedy laxative that works?  I don't care which end it is administered through.  I have a stomach ache, I have not, uh, evacuated since Friday, and I need to go NOW.  I took some Pepto Bismol last night which has only served to stop up the plumbing worse.  

At this point, I'd stuff a 223 round up my butt if I thought it would help....

If you want quick action, a suppository is the way to go.  I gave the suggestion; I'm not offering to help from here on out.

I already ate some apple sauce, now I'm wolfing down a baked potato.  This shit started Friday night, and the popcorn I ate today while watching War of The Worlds sure as hell didn't help.

Suppositories are fastest.

1/2 to 1 quart of Prune juice will clean you out, but stick close to the bathroom for a few hours.

Or in classic ARFCOM style.... "Get Both".

Those with plugged up kids know these things.

Forgot to say that there is no drug store or even supermarket within 45 minutes of where I am right now.  I need something that I have here at the house.

Salt water you say?  Do I drink it or?

Coffee is out since I have to get to bed soon.

Not to be gross or anything, but I feel the urge, I just CAN'T go.  It hurts at this point.

Blood pressure is fine.  I just don't have lots of stuff here at the cabin.  In desperation, I was about to gag back a tablespoon or two of vegetable oil, thinking that might literally make things slide around easier.

I'll try some salt water.

I dont suppose you have manzanita bushes out there do ya? Tea made with the leaves make a wonderfull laxative. We had a guy drink a couple cups of a strong tea made with the leaves and we had bets to see how long he would last. He started running ot the head about 20 minutes after drinking

Update:  I still haven't taken a dump, but after I ate my potato I put the plate on the bookshelf near my desk, being too lazy to take it to the kitchen.  (My wife comes in here every morning and takes the dishes out)

Anyway, I must have placed it precariously on the edge, because that damn plate just fell off, scaring the holy dogshit out of me and the dog.  Also woke my wife up, and coated the carpet with melted butter and cheese fragments.

okay 10 to 20 drop of visean ( sp ?  the eye drop stuff ) in a drink. great practical joke too.

or a glass of mineral oil ( nasty )

warm slightly soapy water, and no you dont drink it. just use about 4 to 8 oz's. also lots of ways to deposit it where you want it. but lay in an empty bath tub for leakage reasons. you want to hold it in for a few mins if you can

If you have any epsom salts around the cabin, read the box. I use to lose 12-14 pounds overnight when I had to make weight in the military.
