lets say that each person does a 3 inch by 3 inch poop patty per day.
every eight days each person does a 1 foot cube poop patty, or slightly over 45square feet worth of poop patties per year.
multiply that by the billions of people in the world. the number becomes a staggering figure.
i want to know, where does all the poop end up?
-
They might have special bugs that eat it. ;D
-
In the sewer...maybe the rats eat it.

poop:
can be used for fertilizer, soil reclamation, and stabilization, and may even be dried out and burned as a solid fuel (typically along with some other higher-energy solid fuel, such as coal).

I think it might end up with over-use of the puking emoticon though. Unless of course we ban it from the thread >:D

To be honest I don't give as much thought to my poop as you do, although if I was pushed I'm sure I could think of someone who deserves a flaming bag of crap on their doormat. >:D
-
i'd like to poop on the whitehouse lawn.
-
anywhere. try IBS for a while, and then having a sdecent shit is really appealing.
and "pooping", for fuck's sake - how old are you?
are all americans so prissy?
-
yea. that's why we can kick the poop outta you brits.
-
I dont know about anybody else, but the word poop sounds more disgusting to me and brings more vivid images of the actual substance than the word shit.
-
its bettern' ka-ka!
-
it goes into outerspace
-
but it comes from a black hole and then it returns?
-

An impressive portion of human waste is processed into mcdonalds. To give you an idea about how they can make so many burgers.

the joy of IBS...
i once had a shit which was the first after several days of blockage. it was while i was living on the land, and so i was using a squat pit (exactly what it sounds like), and could view the results. i shrieked like a banshee, cos the bloody stuff would stop coming out, and was about the size of a football (UK version). i was yelling for an episiotomy, as i was sure i'd need one, or the anal equivalent. i was so excited - it really was massive.
the sad thing was, no-one would come and witness it.
-
i would have lucifer, i would have.

i must be psychic...

Plugging into the power of sewage
19:00 10 March 2004
Exclusive from New Scientist Print Edition.
Celeste Biever
The waste you flush down the toilet could one day power the lights in your home. So say researchers at Pennsylvania State University who last week revealed they have developed an electricity generator fuelled by sewage.
Even better, the device breaks down the harmful organic matter as it generates the electricity, so it does the job of a sewage-treatment plant at the same time. Penn State's microbial fuel cell (MFC) harnesses chemical techniques similar to those the body uses to break down food - but diverts the electrons liberated in the reactions to produce electrical energy.
"There are extraordinary benefits if this technology can be made to work," comments Bruce Rittmann, an environmental engineer at Northwestern University in Illinois.
Keep on shitting. ;D

Didn't there used to be a website called welikepoo.com? It seems to have disappeared. :(
Are there any other good websites out there devoted to faeces?
-
Interesting link there, just the subject matter to read right after lunch :laugh:
-
its alright as long as you didn't order chinese delivery and eat ka ka kai poo!
-
So who has a Bristol Stool chart by their Thomas Crapper to compare and contrast?

thomas crapper was a brit.
all hail t-crap!
-
not i. but my friend did a project on pseudomonads and aeromonads in faeces for part of the degree we were doing at the time (i got the good bit, for a change - boring, but no shit involved). the range of colours in the specimens she got were unbelievable - from white, through the usual suspects, to green, black, etc. the day she got the blue specimen, we were all hysterical - it didn't help that she was hungover that morning. oh, how we laughed.
halcyon days...
-
the blue poop person must have had the blues.
-
I remember Caitlin once shouting for me to come to the bathroom cos her poo was bright blue and she thought she was really ill- turned out to be a bottle of blue pop my mum had given her the day before :laugh:
-
doesn't she know not to eat the bottle?
-

Not quite sure of your logic there since the majority of pop bottles are clear :P
-
but you said a bottle of blue pop?
-
but you said a bottle of blue pop?
Yes I did, not a blue bottle of pop- the pop was blue, the bottle was clear.
-
Usually blue or purple pop makes my daughter's poop green, not blue. It was a little alarming the first time I saw it.
-
Now We are down to colors of poo. ::) :laugh:
-

Yes I did, not a blue bottle of pop- the pop was blue, the bottle was clear.
how would you know before you drank the pop?
-
why do i like poop talk
-
why do i like poop talk
Because the ability to poop is so important to you.
What is that saying, you don't know what you have until you lose it for a while?
-
its a shame that i have the same priorities as an 80 year old man, yet i am only 37.

aeval.
1 1/2 years ago i had a bowel obstruction and couldn't poop. they opened me up and took out a portionj of my blocked, small intestine.
i was also born with the same condition. i had surgery when i was 2 weeks old.
-
What caused the blockages, McJagger?
-
i do not know.
i think my mom said once that i was born with portions of my small intestine that were calcified.
-
Now We are down to colors of poo. ::) :laugh:
and that's worse than emotiwhoring?
-
i think she meant;
And that's worse than emotiwhoring?
-
the use of italics to add emphasis is a moot point. i tend to use them on here, to ensure people get my meaning (which also applies to smileys).
however, generally, i would eschew the use of italics for emphasis: a writer should be good enough not to need them. and i'm talking professionally here, obviously.
-
we are not dealing with professionals, obviously.
and i am refering to myself, for the most part.
-
:P
anyway, mcj, don't you start on me, cos i'm going to agree with you that, if you've got any difficulties with your digestion/bowel whatever, the details of having a fucking shit (or not having one) are very, very important and fascinating.
besides, anyone who's had to listen to bloody new parents blether on about nappies...
"your child produces shit in its nappy, does it? reallyhowinteresting..." ::)

"go to the bathroom"... ::)
honestly, is it an american thing, being this coy?
no, they don't defecate or urinate (i'm being nice and polite, please note). any waste products are passed through the umbilicial cord and across the placenta into the bloodstream, and form part of the mother's excretory products.
-
lol, thanks for clearing that up ;D
-
I read that as "thanks for CLEANING that up". :-\ :-[

at least foetuses don't need loo roll, then. oh, so sorry - i expect you'd call it "personal hygiene tissue" or some such euphemism. :P

Actually, although the mother does process waste products through the placenta, babies do urinate in the womb after the first trimester and they swallow amniotic fluid, but they do not defecate unless they are in distress. Their poop is called meconium and if the amniotic fluid is stained yellow or green with meconium, that's bad, because the baby can aspirate the meconium into his lungs.
