In the episode “Spies Reminiscent of Us”, Joe Swanson, a character from Family Guy, is known for his humorous anecdotes about his disability. He is paralyzed and wears a colostomy bag, or “poop sack”, under his clothes to clean his bathroom. When asked about the existence of two toilets in his bathroom, Joe responds, “You heard him fella, take ’em off. Right down to the poop sack?” This scene is part of the Emmy Award-winning animated series Family Guy.
Joe Swanson is known for his humorous anecdotes about his disability, which have been a source of critical praise over the years. He is often referred to as “the poop sack” by his friends, Quagmire, and Cleveland. Joe’s disability is evident in his interactions with Peter, Quagmire, and Cleveland.
One of the most humorous explanations of how Joe uses the bathroom is that he is paralyzed from the waist down and needs someone to change his diapers during a trip the guys are planning. Joe considers Quagmire to be the most humorous character.
A crossover with its spin-off, The Cleveland Show, takes place when Peter, Joe, and Quagmire bump into Cleveland and meet his new family. Roberta does not appear in the episode, but Brian and Lois share their thoughts on Joe’s book.
In this episode, Joe is paralyzed due to a Christmas visit to an orphanage where he was chasing the Grinch-like character Peter Griffin. As they get into bed, Lois tries to talk to Peter about Joe’s book, which has led to a falling out between them.

Quagmire may make fun of Joe for wearing diapers but I think the fact that he is changing him shows he does care about him. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t change Joe in the first place. Changing him shows he’s looking out for his friend and helping him with things that sadly he can’t do thanks to his disability, like needing his diapers changed.
