Can we have one day without talking about poop?

I bet we could go 3 days. 🤔

this is the first post i've actually read from this community & i'm already sold lol

The first rule about poop club is we don't talk about poop club.

S**t happens, man.

But slightly more seriously, when you combine anonymity with something that people do on average once a day, but due to social mores they don't talk about, those social mores become a lot more flexible, I guess.

...only once a day?

The average (perhaps geometrically, even) over all people is, as a statistic I've pulled out of a perhaps all too apt a place, about once a day, I reckon. At the extremes, there are those who go multiple times a day and there are those who somehow manage to last a week or more without needing to.

Extreme cases without diagnosed illnesses really ought to be looking at their diet IMO, but then, I'm no more an MD than I am a statistician.

I mean if we could get 3 days without pooping I guess we can stop taking about it for a day.
In all seriousness it'll fade away as all memes does, give it time.

There’s been kind of a “last week of school before summer vacation” vibe, which I suspect is related in part to the overall weirdness of this moment as reddit partially collapses and the Fediverse figures out how to absorb the influx of new users and, I dunno, I figure everyone is just feeling kind of impish and punchy.

Anyway I’m a humorless old person and unfond of scatological humor in general, so I emphatically share your sentiment. I suspect it’ll die down shortly, though. In the meantime I hope the literal shitposters are at least enjoying themselves. Everybody’s gotta blow off steam from time to time.

One of my favorite features about Calckey is the ability to mute words. I think Mastodon allows it, too, and I used to make use of the word filter on Reddit as well. Maybe one day kbin will include it or perhaps it's hidden somewhere I missed and some helpful person will kindly point the way.

It's great for situations like this. I use it to filter out dog posts because I have a traumatic past with them and I know I'll never convince people to quit putting dogs literally everywhere, but I don't have to see nearly as many of those posts with a good filter setup.

My dude, social media is today's bathroom stall. What else are we to talk about other than the duece left behind.

Peter: I'm looking for some toilet training books.
Salesman: We have the popular 'everybody poops", or the less popular 'nobody poops but you'.
Peter: Well, you see, we're catholic...
Salesman: Ah, then you'll want 'you're a naughty, naughty boy, and that's concentrated evil coming out the back of you'.

3 days no poop baby!!! I mean you don't take poop daily?

I'm part of a health study in the UK that recently did a poo study as well. I didn't take part, but this week we got the results. So now I know what areas of the country have the most and least frequent pooing. There are also stats on constipation and diarrhea, and length of time sitting on the toilet. I'm happy to copy and paste if anyone is interested.... though given the post title, maybe I'll keep it to myself, lol.
