I love poop threads. Bookmark Skidmark.

News? Nope. Happens all the time.

Hey, whatever fills your cup.

I was a Dimwit scholar.

What a crappy article.

\obligatory

"The Necessity"? Sure. "The Big Necessity"? Not so sure (until it comes out).

You know she changed her name TO George; it used to be Latrine.

Sounds like a shiatty job.

FTA - ...pushing poor sanitation - which kills more children under 5 than AIDS, TB or malaria - up the global political agenda.

Gotta global political agenda? Up yours...

Is it an autobiography? DNRTF

I bullshiat all the time - maybe I should start writing some of it down

As a municipal wastewater treatment employee I'm getting a kick, etc.

I used to work at a water treatment facility. Being in Florida, people occasionally ask me what to do when there's no water availble for several days (hurricanes). I tell them not to worry, it's when you can't flush for several days that you have a problem.

A couple decades ago, I took a freshman-level honors science seminar called, "Science, Technology, and Society." We had to choose a piece of technology as the focus of our final paper. I chose the toilet just because I wanted to hand in something called, "A Toilet Paper."

But, know what? When I started researching for the sucker, it turned out to be a very interesting topic. Toilets (and good sanitation systems) have done more to cut down on disease than most medical break-throughs. And the ergonomics of a good toilet are a fascinating study in functional design.

this article stinks.

Earlier today I read some literature while taking a poo break, so I'm really getting a kick...

Her book is shiatty.

The demise of public toilets

This is because a lot of people have absolutely no respect for what is not theirs and will do obscene thing when they think no one is watching.

I've still got a couple chapters left to read in "Rusty Bed Springs" by I. P. Nightly, but I'll get to her book when I have the chance

qxzlool: As a municipal wastewater treatment employee I'm getting a kick, etc.

I've always just assumed that down at the wastewater plant there's some guy whose job it is to stand by some kind of long sluice, and he's got a rake and he's supposed to fish out condoms and flushed toys and stuff as the wastewater enters the plant. I know that's not how it works, but any time I unleash a massive coffee-burrito-FiberOne bar-bran muffin powered industrial sized turd that takes a couple flushes to get rid of and turns the air green and melts the paint off the walls and scorches the porcelain, I can't help but think of that poor guy weeping as he sees it come floating past him. It makes all the paperwork and flushing worthwhile, somehow. Please don't disabuse me of the notion that this guy exists.

You sure paint a pretty picture.

It's one small step from poo to poonani (for man/mankind?) ...

After submitting dozens of poop related articles with out a greenlight, it's hard not to get deterred.

I applied for that job but missed the cut.

/seriously. Good pay, benefits, and probably the most secure job in the country

Huh, the poo scholar is kind of cute.

Also, I just finished a Taco Bell lunch, so I will be getting a kick out these comments shortly.

Brings to mind Little Murders.

It's nice to know that a top notch education can advance your career.

Uh oh! Boiled green corn and apples strike again!

Approves.
