I’m confused… can someone ELI5?

Twas one of the first Lemmy “memes” if you want to call it like that.

A guy needed advise to not poop for 3 days. Never heard from him again.

It was followed by the Beans episode.

Did someone suggested him to have beans?

some guy posted a question about how he can survive without shitting for 3 days straight. Ge didn't want to say why he wanted to do it and never gave an update. The post has become a meme

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

He did update the post to make it clear it was some kind of hiking/camping trip.

There was also a gummy worms post.

Also looks like there's an update here

Honestly just traveling will do this sometimes. Brain is all "we can't poop here, what happened to home"

Say an unusual word every time you’re pooping at home and then repeat it when you’re having trouble in public. It works with pee, at least

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That’s interesting! I’d hate if the unusual word came up randomly in an everyday situation. “Not like this!” as you fight your bladder from releasing a deluge while you’re on a commute on a bus…

That’s why I chose “excelsior”

I feel like my only danger is possibly when a secondary ship warps in during a Star Trek movie.

Also definitely want to avoid the letters page in old Marvel comics.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

haha true i forgot about stan ending letters like that!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Don't vacation here or even read the page out loud.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ha! You might as well give up and wear diapers at that point!

Yeah it was a post by @mizu6079 who had some... unusual requirements that captured everyone's imagination.

Here's the original asklemmy thread - formatted for kbin, I'm not sure how to format for lemmy yet.
