Some say he is still not pooping to this very day.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 year ago

He really isn't giving a shit.

This made it so big people outside of Lemmy were talking about it. I overheard some co-workers talking about it and I was like you're on Lemmy?? And they were confused.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah! The first legendary post on lemmy. Years from now, I can say to my grandkids that I was there when the poop post came out. I was there

Some say he is held against his will in The European Organization for Nuclear Research in Switzerland, commonly known as CERN. Apparently, his sacrifice made a a giant leap in the field of Condensed Dark Matter.

Human Right activists are fighting for his immediate release, both from the imprisonment and for his bowels.

what was it for?

The world may never know 😔

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

He actually said not to ask, if I remember right.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

The current status is that he's really active on lemmy still and will sometimes pop in on these type of posts and answer your questions.

He did do a follow up about how to take a poop when you haven't for three days lol. So he clearly had trouble getting started again but I think he's well now.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Not sure, but hopefully he pooped.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Let us indeed hope that it has happened.

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

He did! He was very constipated and he’s fine now. There is a link with an update somewhere in these comments.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Sounds like we need an OOTL out of the Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I’m confused… can someone ELI5?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Did someone suggested him to have beans?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (3 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Also looks like there's an update here

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

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

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…

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

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!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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.
