This thread is interesting and disturbing. Do you guys really have major problems with gas? The lot of you have stomach cancer or something if you need to constantly fart throughout the day.

I don't need to "hold it in" because my digestive system actually properly and doesn't create a bunch of gas for no reason. I eat beans all the time and it never causes gas. I eat very spicy food and it never causes the shits. All you guys who have problems with gas and the shits need to see a doctor.

at my workplace, there's a line of about 10 urinals and it gets pretty crowded at times.
almost every time i walk by, a couple of them will be letting out quick short ones.

are they having control issues?

You can't do it outside the bathroom, so you take care of business in the bathroom...

Nope. That's why I don't yet have stomach cancer :biggrin:

I still don't understand why people are so nuts about fiber. If you want to shit right now, drink 3 cups of coffee. Some people are near my desk so I don't want to go through the work of finding a website describing what "coffee shits" means.

Vitamin C is another thing that cleans house. Take a hand full of vitamin C pills and you'll have hardcore diarrhea for a couple hours. Seriously write that down.

Fiber is good to have, but for this spawn-of-satan snackfood, the culprit is not fiber. It is the chicory root extract. They sure are delicious though.

schneiderguy must be grounded from the computer today.
The way he is fascinated by PeePee & Poop, he should have been in on this thread early!

coffee is much better as a laxative, for me, anyway. ...And I think most people.

But fiber is necessary for long-time colon health. it helps one to be naturally regular. Taking coffee just to shit is not exactly being "regular."

Also, too much fiber can clog you up. as can the wrong kind of fiber.
