Wilford Brimley, a spokesman for Liberty Medical and a well known diabetic recently quipped that he’s known about the drug for years, “I use that drug now and I use it often” mentioning that it has helped him tremendously in coping with “diabeetus”.
2007 October 1, Tom Anderson, “Re: What are some "good" snacks?”, in misc.fitness.weights[1] (Usenet):
Carbohydrates are bad? There are weight-loss schemes that involve avoiding them, and you don't want to go crazy on sugars unless you want diabeetus, but in general, i reckon they're okay.
2008 September 23, Rev. Back It On Up 13 [username], “Re: Subgenius Demographics”, in alt.slack[2] (Usenet):
All SubGenius females over the age of 35 are "disappeared" by Rev. Ivan Stang each year at the big house, so there's no real issue with them dying off early of diabeetus, unless they are really determined to do so.

Where you never get old, and you don't ever die, not even from Diabeetus.

They has less sugar in them, so they're safer for them what has the diabeetus.

Yeah, but I'm trying to decide what to do about it before all the saccharine gives me diabeetus or something.
Anyway, Cannibal Hermit Wilford Brimley lures Cain and Bell back to his cabin in order to kill them and keep their bodies for food. (The cabin still has working electric lights, by the way. Kudos to you, post-zombie apocalypse electric company.)
But predictably the two younger men overpower him and eventually kill him. I guess it was the diabeetus.
2010 October 28, spamtrap1888 [username], “Re: Lillie's Q - some new BBQ place”, in chi.eats[6] (Usenet):
I drink 4 oz of orange juice every morning. Will that give me the diabeetus?
2011, Abbey, letter to the editor, Jester (Columbia University - humor), Spring 2011, page 2:
She let me get Fruit Loops at the grocery store even though she always says that the sugar cereeyals will make my teeth fall out and will give me diabeetus.
2011 August 24, smr [username], “Re: Austin BBQ redux”, in chi.eats[7] (Usenet):
The bad thing is is that those senior citizens are being kept alive at the expense of tens of thousands of dollars in treatments and pills for their heart issues, the diabeetus, and the like, yet they're also the folks most likely to jump on their taxpayer-funded fat people scooters to go to a Tea Party rally to tell that nigger Obama to keep the government's hands of their Medicare.
Wilford Brimley could rush for over 100 yards against the Broncos and he's got diabeetus.
2013, Cedric Wilson, "The secret of life, cheesecake", The Islander (Grand Island Senior High), Volume 81, Issue 9, 15 March 2013, page 13:
I know as Americans we always have that central drive to find the barrier between, sweet and “diabeetus” but cookie dough cheesecake may be a little too much.
Tell Cake we sent you, and she might be persuaded to hook you up with her signature Red Velvet Cake martini. The perfect blend between cirrhosis and the diabeetus, this is probably what Oompa-Loompas unwind with at the end of an everlasting workday.
