  Wilford Brimley - Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Unfortunately for Wilford, this unseemly growth on nasal regions of his face led to his #1 problem: diabetes (or "diabeetus," as it would be known to him), years after recovering from The 'Beetus, the advanced form of the disease.
Brimley also began experimenting with a radical diabetic maintenance program, which forsakes insulin in favor of what he calls "oat therapy." While oat therapy is surprisingly effective, it renders Brimley violently homicidal for 3 minutes a day, and might be partly respsonsible for Brimley's 1980 murder of Belgian writer Alan Alda.
Wilford Brimley had complete control of his protoplasm, and was capable of quickly assuming the form of any creature he had ever devoured or absorbed within the limits of his mass.
