Beans

No poop challenge.

I almost forgot about this

Please, wat IS this lol

The first truly viral Lemmy post, I believe. It was a thing to behold. Post over in !asklemmy@lemmy.ml from a guy asking how to not poop for three days but being extremely mysterious about the reasons why.

Did we ever find out why, in the end? Idk but I have chosen to enjoy the mystery.

I already lose track of whether this led directly to the bean craze or if the bean craze was unrelated, but they happened very close together!

Unfortunately seems like the original post has been deleted and now I am sad.

U have the link? I thought that was a Reddit thing?

Like I said the OP seems to have been deleted although turns out you can still see the comments at https://old.lemmy.world/post/440073 which should give you a general idea. Bear in mind most people had been on Lemmy for just a few days at this point.

O my god, amazing! I wish someone would create an APP that you add the lemmy url to and it finds a way to store the page data and export it for retention. I hate i can't keep amazing posts
