Default OT I probably can't do that

Yeah. I don't know what preparation you did but I once had to drink a
gallon - literally a gallon -- of something to flush out my insides. It
was one of the few times I missed having a wife, who I figured might
pour it down my throat. But left alone, I couldn't do it. I think I
drank between 2 and 3 quarts. The guy the next day didn't complain.


Colonoscopy


Exactly.

usually requires that sort of prep -- make sure you're
squeaky clean inside! Drinking it isn't terrible -- it's the
*consequences* of drinking it that are... "unfortunate".


The consequences I didn't mind, but trying to drink it all was very
unpleasant. I didn't allow enough time either, because I had to go to
sleep. Torn between drinking and sleeping.


I had that before an abdominal CT. A gallon of liquid that looked like
milk until I started drinking it.
