1 poop a day, always before bed. Never have the urge otherwise unless I'm sick. It works out well, I don't have to ruin the smell of my workplace with my stink biscuits.

TBH people think I'm weird when I explain this, I'm starting to think I have a mental disorder, like on Hank where that kid just wouldn't shit at all.

If someone explains his shitting habits to me, then I'd think he's weird.

I have a buddy who worked next to this fat dude at work and listened to him eat a ton of junk food every day. His office was small, and the bathroom had two stalls. Well, one day he was in one of the stalls and heard the fat dude come into the stall next to his and takes a very large and very loud dump. Just about the time that he's standing up to wipe, my buddy said the timing was such that the fat dude had another bowel movement and crapped on his hand and seat. And the fat dude even yelled "MFER!" My buddy couldn't help but burst out laughing and left the bathroom as fast as possible.

Not so subtle had bear sex in the bathroom with extra lube.

Hm... what things there are on the Internet.

And then it occurred to me.

There is no way in hell this woman could get either hand around her huge
thighs and buttocks to wipe her arse after taking a dump. Ok ok I know the
strangest things pop into my head but I am deadly serious when I say this
women could not get a handful of toilet paper anywhere near her anus, it
was just physically impossible.

After studying the length of her arms and expanse of her rear end I pushed
my cart away from that scene with the firm belief, obese people cannot wipe
their own arses after taking a dump.

Just finished working in a mall for about a year. Yeah some disgusting shit (pun intended) goes on in publish bathrooms. I remember seeing shit streaks on the stalls of a couple of them. WTF people this means they grabed their shit with their hands and smeared it on the walls!? o_O

There was this one toilet that was not only full of shit but someone dropped a diaper on top of the shit too. WTF is it THAT hard to use the stall with the changing table and garbage bin? Even if it was in use is it THAT hard to walk to the garbage bin near the sinks and throw the diaper away?

I've had it stack up before, like a tower/pyramid ... it causes streaks in the weirdest places.
LOL, I know when it really starts to smell that the pyramid has broken the surface of the water and it's time for a courtesy flush. D:

one thing that i don't understand at my job is this one guy will brush his teeth with an electric tooth brush during the day. i've been taking shits when i hear him start up.

i mean he's brushing his teeth when he's smelling shit in the bathroom. that just aint right.

other odd thing is the kitchen has a vent into our bathroom. so when you shit around lunch time you will smell food from the microwave and stuff while shitting. kind of odd.

We were coming home from vegas drinking in the car on I-15.....we all had to piss so we pulled over in Baker, which is some shitty desert town.....right before I went into the bathroom at a gas station, my buddy says "Try not to pee on the seat, I gotta shit really bad!

So what does the buzzed Ocguy do? I dont think a single drop of my urine actually made it into the toilet...I pissed everywhere but the toilet water. Haha.

You're a pig.

This. And a 2 year old. Course I'd just clean it up with toilet paper. Piss on the seat is not the worst. Those who shit on the seat though. :mad:

Another possible solution is that the perp was in such a dire need to go with problems with his anal muscles that as soon as he turned around and started to pull his pants down it started shooting before he could press his ass to the seat fast enough. I had one episode where I was really sick and this happened to me once. Of course I actually had the grace to use some TP to wipe all that I could up and flush it before leaving.



But it can't be worse than public bathrooms here. It sucks living so close to Mexico sometimes. Some places in Mexico don't have good sewers or actual bathrooms. So you get these visitors here that don't know they are suppose to flush down the toilet paper. They are used to wiping and throwing it in a nearby trashcan. However public restrooms here don't usually put wastecans in stalls. So what ends up happening is these Mexicans wipe their ass and toss the shitty paper in a corner of the stall on the floor. I used to have to clean the public restrooms around here when I was a teenager working shit jobs. Pun intended.

It really gets bad around here on certain Mexican holidays when they all come up here to shop. Ugh.

D: Usually the problem in poor countries is that there just isn't any toilet paper. I know in China for example only the washrooms in the nicest public places and in peoples own homes have toilet paper. China also still uses squat toilets a lot.

Wat? I don't get it, he crapped in his hand? How did your buddy know this? How did he see it if it was in the next stall?

I know I've shared this story in other fecal-themed threads before, but for me the worst was my first job, when I was 16 working fast food. Someone took the urinal cake holder out of the urinal, dropped it into the toilet, and then proceeded to make stool. That really sucked.

What did you use to get the cake out? Please don't say your hands. D:

Learn to time it IMO, after a while your body gets used to your eating/shitting schedule and you no longer are shitting during the day.

Do you drink coffee? Because at least for me, my shit cycle gets activated early in the morning thanks to it.

I remember as a kid I would think it was so funny when people did shit like that in restrooms, and growing up as an adult I realized not only how stupid crap like this is, but also thinking of the individual who has to clean it up.

ditto. some of these messes are so nasty they are funny. i went into the womens bathroom at the 99 cent store a few weeks ago and some chick had blasted diarrhea all over the back of the seat and all over the plumbing fixtures of the head. i thought jesus chris i feel sorry for whoever has to clean that up. youd have to soak it and then wipe up the drippings, all the while trying not to get it all over your hand. and then, an hour after you cleaned it up, another chick would do the same thing


when people get old they also make all kinds of nasty messes. my dad pisses all over the floor every time and gets crap smudges all over the seat, dont ask me how.

I remember at work a few years ago, the bathroom there looked like a murder scene but with shit instead of blood. Shit on the floors, walls, toilet, sink, mirror-everywhere. There were even shit hand prints on the wall. To top it off, at the water fountain right outside the bathroom, there were a couple of whole turds sitting on the floor. The person(the bathroom is unisex) must have shook a few loose ones down their pant leg & let them sit by the fountain. I never drank from that fountain again.

I have always been flabberghasted as to how this happens myself, but it seems to be a common problem with.. large people.

I'm anal about my bathroom cleanliness... no pun intended. I always drop a deuce after the bathrooms have been cleaned here at work. I'm on a schedule, it's like clockwork.

I'm like the cat that insists on using the litterbox immediately after it's been cleaned. :D

I think if you don't give a shit about how you personally look, your not going to give a shit about your surroundings.

Squat toilets are the norm in many countries. They think it's odd that we will voluntarily put our naked butt on an unwashed surface covered with the butt sweat of strangers.

It is actually kinda amazing that more diseases etc aren't transferred that way, when you think about it.

I guess it's probably an overall sanitation thing. Most people are fairly clean in that regards if they're surrounded by sanitary conditions. I can imagine sit-down toilets actually being a problem where overall sanitation is lacking, though.

Yeah most countries with squat toilets consider them to be more hygienic and in many ways I guess they technically are, or are at least the same. And disliking squat toilets on principal is really just a western prejudice(just like disliking sit down ones) they look perfectly fine in a clean environment:

What I more trouble with is when the shower and squat toilet are one and the same place:

Technically this isn't that much worse but it feels icky to me.
