They use excuses such as bad Chinese food or undercooked beef. It's overused as an excuse so often that it's not really believable. So instead of saying I have cramps ;) I say must be bad ham. It's a joke between my husband and I, so he knows when I really don't want to do something. If there's a social gathering coming up, I might say I feel a case of bad ham coming on. Same with if we're already at a social gathering and I want to leave. I say I think I had some bad ham. Sometimes before having to do something neither of us want to, we'll both in unison agree it's a bad ham day. Silly stuff. I’ve been asked what bad ham-itus is.
