Couch 203: The Spam and Cool Whip Couch!

Ew, I always put toilet paper on the seat. I don't want my bottom touching the public toilet.

Hey, when you gotta go, you gotta go. That's how I think of it.

I remember my nephew when he was about six or seven having a lengthy conversation with me that went like this:
Him: Do ants poop?
Me: Yes.
Him: Do dogs poop?
Me: Yes.
Him: Do birds poop?
Me: Yes.

Etc. Finally I was like, everything that eats, poops! I did not want to keep having that discussion once we got to the store and we were getting close. Luckily he seemed satisfied with that answer and we moved on to different subjects.

My boss said I could leave early today because of my migraine, but its a good thing that I stayed because there is no one else here to answer the phones. At least by staying I didn't lose any pay.

T went alright. I didn't tell him as much as I wanted to but we had a good session on building trust. Thanks to those who supported me.

My eldest D is coming home for Christmas and was going to to board her support dog in training as one airline doesn't let any support animals on at all I am sure this is against something and the other airline won't fly dogs in training without their trainer. So she is flying him up as a pet which was cheaper than boarding him. My dog is actually her dog was listening to the call and got all excited at her voice and is now racing around trying to find her. I am so excited to meet her dog.

I have bladder issues, I just have to go ALL the time. I envy those who can choose not to use a public bathroom because there is no choice for me. I pee before I see T and usually have to go after.

LT the theory is that there are more female emetophobes than male ones because men (overall) have a different relationship with bodily functions, barfing, pooping etc than women do.

Having spent my entire career in healthcare and law enforcement (and a combo of the two) there are no bodily functions that bother me from other people.....BUT.....when I have to poop in a public restroom I don't want anyone else in there and I always hope for a single room that I can lock.

Also:

It is socially acceptable to say, "Are you alright in there?"
It is not socially acceptable to say, "Get a move on! I'm bursting to go!"

Why do we have no bowel movement emoji?

Tangentially related, I love how cats race around at top speed after they have one.

Because some users might be triggered. This is supposed to be a safe place.

But the word poop over and over isn’t triggering?

The topic does not upset me - but it does not fascinate me like it does exhankster. I really don't see the need to discuss it.

My butt is huge. My ts butt is non-existent. I dont know how he doesnt fall in!

Its triggering me to poop

I think I have a shy colon.

I came here to cheered up and all this talk of poop isn't doing it.

I am having a blob day I just to blob on my bed but I have to take my youngest to the uni psych clinic later this afternoon. I have little motivation and I feel guilty for just blobbing.

Sorry!!!

Nobody cares if you poop on the couch.

But an emoji would be visible on all threads.

Child seat.

My mother had a thing about bowel movements. She was terribly intrusive in my childhood

It took me a looong time to figure it out, thats why. Plus, figure, my parents didnt have running water? So again, the journey to elite from deplorable - there are a lot of steps.

No BM discussion here but I got my air conditioner fixed today so hooray!
