The Poo Thread!

Yeah, I just flush it then plunge it if it clogs...
I've never had to use the glove method, PTL...0 -
Yeah when it literally coils up and out of the water- sometimes- you really just want to document the food baby you birthed.
And that is correct- sometimes- it will not flush. Usually I just use the plunger- but I've had to do the plastic bag/glove method before when something won't plunge. woof.
Pooping is a real thing. I need that toilet that sucks down like 29 golf balls or something.
At my office, our handicap bathroom had a toilet with a flush so strong, you felt it would take you down with it if you stood too close, but for some strange reason, they changed it and now it takes an extra flush or two to get everything down. Oh man, I miss that flush.2 -

Poo knife! When I read that story, I laughed so hard that I cried.
I've never had to cut a poo, personally.0 -

See, I've had to deal with the occasional log. But to have a dedicated knife for it hanging in the hallway (mid-point between two bathrooms) is way too much.1 -

To some, that's perfectly normal. To me, the world Is ending, the apocalypse is nigh, and there is nothing else that I can think about.
LOL I'd be in panic mode too! Hopefully your innards sort themselves out soon xx
NOPE! STILL DYING!
Even resorted to a laxative. It did NOTHING.
Ya'll. I miss my poops. Like, I actively miss sitting on the toilet every morning, even running late to work because of a particularly satisfying "deposit".
I have become a twice/week pooper in the span of one week!2 -

We had to give tours of the dorms when I was an RA and we had particularly vivacious toilets. I used to make the kids flush them because they were so intense. My little thing was always "see, we ARE an engineering school -- we have NASA toilets!"2 -

Oh that sucks! If you can't find a cause, you could try probiotics and try making a chia pudding.
My recipe:
25g chia seeds
25g chocolate /peanut butter protein powder
75ml unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Mix together and leave to set in the fridge.
I went from being regular as clockwork to having severe digestive distress, with horrific symptoms i will not even mention on here, almost overnight.
I did the bowel cancer screening and then went on to have a colonoscopy, both were clear!
After all of that, i found the culprit which was a fibre/sweetener product than many manufacturers use in their protein bars. It took me over 6mths to get back to normal.

I have questions- what does she do with the stick when she's done? does she flush it- or throw it away in the back yard?

Actually had some chia seeds in Greek yogurt last night and miracle of miracles, I was late to work
OP, thank you for providing a place for me to went my issues. My friends are sick of listening to me talk about this.
ETA: is this a 1 serving recipe? I've been using roughly 7 grams of chia seeds in my yogurt so this sounds like an awful lot.1 -
I must be the odd ball here, I go about every 3-4 days, but take a lot of meds too!!0

So while we're on the subject... I had a fleeting toilet thought last night that I figured I may as well bring up since we were all here anyways...
For those of you who have lost a significant amount of weight, have you noticed that your "poo drop zone" in the toilet has changed?
We have those fancy water-saving toilets at home that have very little water in the bottom. It used to never be an issue, but I've found that after dropping about 50lbs, the kiddies are now being dropped off more on the beach instead of in the water.
Maybe I'm crazy. Maybe I need a squatty potty. Who knows. Carry on. 6 -
Eat dinner around 7-9pm and I go in the morning like an alarm clock went off. Nothing is a better motivator to get out of bed than that1

Someone once asked me:
“How does a blind man know when he’s done wiping?”
I had no answer. If anyone has info, please share.1 -

Yep, one serving. I have it for dessert, so i need it to be somewhat substantial. The whole bowl is only 219 calories, i usually slice a banana on top or some yogurt or cottage cheese. 7g wouldn't pack enough punch for me in the toileting department.

A little loosier than usual today, but nice to get it out. One of those "I feel really cleaned out" kind of days. Thumbs up. 10/10. Would poop again.7

Tangentially related to this thread, and I just want to know:
Work bathroom has three stalls. Stall #1 is the handicapped stall. Stall #3 seems to be the most popular. Stall #2 is the middle stall.
So if you go in and Stall #3 is occupied, do you choose Stall #1 or Stall #2?
I'm a Stall #2 person, because I want to leave the handicapped stall available if needed. But it seems, like treadmills, you should not choose the stall directly next to the other person if possible.
What say you?
ETA: There are a couple of ladies that work on my floor that legitimately need the handicapped stall.0 -

Ditto. #1 all the way. I think it's the same with urinals, if I'm not mistaken.

3-5 times a day. For most people this sounds excessive, but all I eat is fruit and vegetables and all I drink is water and tea, so I’m pooping out my breakfast either by dinner time or the next morning.1

I would say the proper manners answer is #2, as I've always been taught you only use the handicapped stall if there are no other options, or obviously if you legit need the bigger stall. I wouldn't blame anyone for using stall #1 in that situation though.
And having said that, I've worked in a small office where no one worked there who actually needed the big stall, and in that case I would use stall #1.2 -

Guys?
But there's not a handicapped urinal, right? And if there were more than three stalls, this wouldn't be an issue for me. I'd use the "non-touching" stall that wasn't handicapped.

I am quite happy to use an accessibility toilet, even though I don’t need one. Leaving it spare seems a little unnecessary unless there is someone actively waiting to use it.4

but he felt so guilty for using the disabled toilet that he walked off with a fake limp !!!
OMG I've done that before! I was doing my grocery shopping and was busting for a wee, there were no toilets so i had to leave my shopping and run, or should i say shuffle with my legs closed tight, across the road to a Mcdonalds. I could hold it for not a second longer and used the disabled loo. Naturally as luck would have it there was someone outside waiting when i came out, so off i limped with my head hung in shame. It was either use that loo or pee my pants
