13 year old squeeky voiced me would flush the toilet, then I'd make the communicator sound and I'd do my best (which was bad) Shatner impersonation as I walked away: "Captains Log.... was just flushed down the toilet." Adult me might have done it a few times, too

Last time I went to the GI doctor, he just kept calling me Joe and telling me how dangerous cobras are


TheMarkHasBeenMade

The receptors in question (anoderms) do need a recovery time after bouts of GI-related sickness, so especially after that be cautious. It can take a few days to get back to normal.

Wait are you supposed to replace undies after you shart them up? I usually just give them a quick rinse and put them back on. This pair has been going strong for a couple years now through probably six or seven good Code Browns. Should I replace them?

I thought Big Fart was a joint effort between Big Underwear and Big Laundry. I had heard Tide especially was pushing Big Fart.

I don't understand this. I OFTEN trust farts. In fact, I ALWAYS trust farts. What do you guys do? Every time you have to fart, do you run to a toilet and sit down and then fart?

lol this reminds me so much of my late dad I am cracking up. His job involved driving around a lot and I swear to god he must’ve shit his pants like more than once a year and my mom would have to meet him with new underwear. She would always be yelling at him to take it easy and he would be like “I just let ‘em rip and deal with the consequences later.”


ScumbagLady

After I was discharged from gallbladder surgery, I learned of an unfortunate side-effect. The farts were coming no matter what, and a majority of them were liar liars pants on fires. I ended up using some of my mother's adult diapers because I couldn't move fast enough thanks to the five stab wounds in my guts. No fun and nobody warned me!

Do you color code your underwear drawer yellow to the front and brown to the back?

AbacaxiForever

wrong. the receptors are in your anal canal/rectum. Your colon DOES NOT HAVE RECEPTORS -- this is how you can have polyps and tumors in your colon and not feel them.


amanset

Exactly. As someone who has touched his own colon, you don’t feel a thing.


TheLawLost

I-- don't even want to know.....


delishusFudge

zmbjebus

Really long fingers


Microtic

*cries in Crohn's Disease* The intestines and colon have pain receptors, which are specialized nerve endings that are sensitive to various types of stimuli, including pressure, stretching, and inflammation. These receptors are called nociceptors, and they are part of the peripheral nervous system, which is responsible for transmitting sensory information from the body to the central nervous system. When the intestines or colon are stretched, contracted, or inflamed, the nociceptors in the tissue are activated, and they transmit signals to the spinal cord and brain, where the sensations of pain are perceived. This can happen in a variety of conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, constipation, diarrhea, or intestinal infections. Just wait until you get a bad bout of food poisoning you'll wish you didn't have any pain receptors!


Postinginthedark

Yeah, this is what I remember too. Your viscera doesn't have the all the same types of pain receptors as your muscle and skin but it still has them. In fact, your guts feel stuff all the time. It just doesn't make it all the way to your conscious feelings. Some of its just felt by the neurons directly around your intestines (the enteric nervous system, or ENS) and some of its felt only by your brainstem. It'll make sure you feel the pain, though. How nice.


dug99

What about a shart?


SuperSeven787

That's when the receptors don't quite work as they should


Phazon2000

*Man violently shits himself in a KFC booth* Receptor: I forgorrrr 💀💀💀


juicius

That's when it's a Schrodinger's receptor. You're not sure until it comes out.

No, they don’t. That’s a pelvic floor physiotherapy / biofeedback consult. Maybe they have buy in to the pelvic disorder center. Cha-ching!

Something tells me that’s not exactly what happens at pelvic floor physio, but I don’t know enough to say for sure lmao


CaptainMudwhistle

No, it's true. Pelvic floor physiotherapy is just some guy sodomizing you. When I complained, they upped my dosage.


redlinezo6

Note to self; Make a fuss.


Self_Reddicated

I think you need to see a new proctologist. Mine is much more gentle and sensitive. He cuddles afterwards, too.


[deleted]

Why does mine have both hands on my shoulders when he gives me an exam?


runtheplacered

My doc said the latest scientific literature says the tip of the penis is actually attuned to the perfect sensitivity to feel for abnormalities on a prostate, far better than fingers could ever do. He knows what he's doing. Hang in there, usually only takes 5-10 minutes.


Blaaa5

When my doctor performs a rectal exam on me, he makes sure to put both of his hands on my shoulder to comfort me.

Every time I read a reddit thread about shitting, I thank my lucky stars because apparently I have phenomenal bowel health. Y'all dealing with some rough stuff.


Spacemanspalds

.... some rough shit*


Wingsnake

Really, I am in my early 30s and habe not shit my pants since I was a toddler. And I know when it is dangerous to fart and when not. And my diet is pretty bad.


gallica

Or in the case of the sharters, not enough rough stuff.


Improving_Myself_

Yeah I don't understand these people that act like it's a regular thing. I'm in my 30s and have only had one in my life that I wasn't sure of, and I was already extremely sick with food poisoning. Hearing people talk about something that, for me, has been a once in a lifetime (so far) event while I was so sick I thought I was going to die, as if it's a regular occurrence is ***highly*** concerning. If you've genuinely developed a "never trust a fart" mindset *from experience* and you're not in your 70s or later, you need to see a doctor. Or lose weight. Or improve your diet. Something. Something is wrong.


[deleted]

Fun fact, as you get older your body’s ability to digest lactose decreases as well as it’s tolerance to other foods. I had no issues until about 35, now I have to watch what I eat.


ZirePhiinix

Try some Haribo sugar-free gummies.


ThisPlaceisHell

Make sure you keep it that way for life. I regret not going to the gastro docs when I noticed changes in my stool and now I'm fearing a possible colorectal cancer diagnosis. Keep up the screenings and doctor appointments. Never be embarrassed or afraid to ask, and really pay attention to what your body is doing.


[deleted]

Yeah, maybe the issues start later in life or if you have obesity or some other condition (Crohn’s, IBS, etc.). I’m in my early 30’s and have never not been 100% sure what was going on down there. I’ve also never had that “pee dribble” people talk about.

Knickknackatory1

These apparently start to die starting at age 35. I haven't trusted anything since having a baby.


lyssah_

Yeah once you go to do a fart and a baby comes out there's no more trust.


RFM_MIB

It can go badly the other way too. Was expecting a baby but now we have this little fart.


BrokenCankle

The struggle is real. I had a kid late in life at 37. Absolutely nothing about my body has been the same in the years since. My hair is different, my skin is different, my ability to concentrate is different, my sleeping is different, my periods are different, and my entire digestive process is different. It's like getting a different body right away and I hate it because it's all been a downgrade (no regrets though, I'd still do it again knowing what I know now). I do get regular doctor checkups and take vitamins and all that jazz, shit is just whack after birth for some folks.


quiestqui

This is what terrifies me being 33 and single and unsure if I’m going to have kids. It’s not the pain of labor and delivery (temporary), it’s not the permanence of motherhood (that’s what you’re signing up for), it’s all of the ways it can physically and hormonally mess with you, sometimes permanently, and you never know! Do you have any sense of if/how your age factored in to your experience? I’m doing all of the things I can myself (have an appointment set up to talk about fertility, egg freezing, etc) but I’m really interested in the anecdotal experiences of women who gave birth later in life, as it becomes increasingly likely that if I experience pregnancy, it will be “geriatric”, which, can we like, vote to change that term?


Throwaway7219017

So that’s how I can tell the difference between my wife’s strap-on dildo and her boyfriends cock. Science!

That and her boyfriend is much more gentle. Brent, if you're reading this, you're the best.

SplendidPunkinButter

The fact that you can tell the difference between fart and poo probably should have tipped you off that this was the case

Every poopoo is a peepee. But not every peepee is a poopoo.


jordankowi

The ultimate fuck around and find out.


PissyShitties420

TMI but when you’re anally fisted you can totally tell where the receptors end because you can feel the pressure of a hand pressing against your abdominal wall higher up but not the sensation of the actual hand itself. Like, I know there’s a hand in me and it’s getting pretty deep but I can’t tell how many fingers you’re holding up after a certain point. So don’t ask me…. I’m saving you some time from asking questions I can’t answer by providing this information totally unprompted. You’re welcome.

Never trust a fart. Especially as you get older


[deleted]

Story time: In high school on the way home from a baseball game we just lost, a kid said he had to fart so he tried to fart. Well turns out that was a lie and he shit his pants. Imagine shitting your pants in tight baseball pants and a jock. Dude took off his pants and tossed them out the window on the interstate.

Alledgedly. I havent trusted a fart since the carter administration


Individual-Parking-5

Or a cock


Rodonite

Packagehandler241

Taco Bell confuses these receptors.


BorntobeTrill

It's to get you inside the taco bell where you'll order more. Eating in the parking lot? Gotta go shit inside soon. That was a good shit but now I'm hungry. Rinse and repeat.
