    If your life includes:

    • Aging
    • Obesity
    • Chronic cough
    • Manual labor job
    • Weakened muscles

    … you’re probably gonna get hernias. Just got my first and it sucks.

    I’ve been slowly gaining weight. I smoke weed, which leads to some coughing every day. I move heavy shit at my work but got transferred to a half desk job two months ago, basically cutting my heavy lifting in half. I’m 40.

    And suddenly my belly button balloons out as my intestines push through. Good god. I don’t have the money for this.
