Why does some poop hurt when it comes out?
[SIZE=-1] (Question submittedby Rwinger01)[/SIZE][SIZE=-1] Turds can getvery large and dry if a person is constipated, causing painful stretchingof the anal opening. Pooping can also hurt if the person has hemorrhoids.Hemorrhoids are engorged veins in the anal area. A doctor once describedthem to me as "varicose veins of the anus," which suggests that the valvesin the veins that are supposed to keep the blood flowing in the right directionhave gotten messed up. Pooping can also be painful if the person suffersfrom an anal fissure, a tear in the tissue of the rectum.

Is it possible for a man to have poop come out ofhis penis, or for a woman to poop out of her vaginal opening?
[SIZE=-1](Question submittedby Booby Poop, Jr. and LaysTatoChips222)[/SIZE][SIZE=-1] Not normally;fortunately the plumbing of the genitalia is entirely separate from theplumbing of the digestive system! However, there are certain pathologicalsituations that can cause the pipes to get connected together wrong. Cancercan do it, as can surgical diversions of the human tubing. Such fistulas,as they are called, can cause feces to come out of the urinary system,or urine to come out of the anus.[/SIZE]
Can you blow up a toilet by throwing a cigarette into it after pooping?
[SIZE=-1] (Question submittedby msiddi)[/SIZE][SIZE=-1] This sounds likeurban legend to me. It would take a heck of a lot of hydrogen to explodea toilet in this manner, and intestinal gases just don't have that much.Also, any flame would just flare up briefly. With an open toilet, you couldn'tget up enough pressure to pop the pot!

[SIZE=-1] Survival Guide for Taking a Dump at Work.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]Memorize these definitions and pooping at work will become a pure pleasure.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]ESCAPEE: A fart that slips out while taking a leak at the urinal or forcing poop in a stall. This is usually accompanied by a sudden wave of panic/embarrassment. This is similar to the hot flash you receive when passing an unseen police car & speeding. If you release an escapee, do not acknowledge it. Pretend it did not happen. If you are standing next to the farter at the urinal, pretend that you did not hear it. No one likes an escapee, it is uncomfortable for all involved. Making a joke or laughing makes both parties feel uneasy.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]JAILBREAK (Used in conjunction with escapee): When forcing a poop, several farts slip out at a machine gun's pace. This is usually a side effect of diarrhea or a hangover. If this should happen do not panic, remain in the stall until everyone has left the bathroom so to spare everyone the awkwardness of what just occurred.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]COURTESY FLUSH: The act of flushing the toilet the instant the nose cone of the poop log hits the water and the poop is whisked away to an undisclosed location. This reduces the amount of air time the poop has to stink up the bathroom. This can help you avoid being caught doing the WALK OF SHAME.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]WALK OF SHAME: Walking from the stall, to the sink, to the door after you have just stunk-up the shitter. This can be a very uncomfortable moment if someone walks in and busts you. As with all farts, it is best to pretend that the smell does not exist. Can be avoided with the use of a COURTESY FLUSH.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]OUT OF THE CLOSET POOPER: A colleague who poops at work and is damn proud of it. You will often see an Out of the Closet Pooper enter the bathroom with a newspaper or magazine under their arm. Always look around the office for the Out OF THE CLOSET POOPER before entering the bathroom.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]THE POOPING FRIENDS NETWORK (PFN): This is a group of coworkers who band together to ensure emergency pooping goes off without incident. This group can help you to monitor the whereabouts of OUT OF THE CLOSET POOPERS and identify SAFE HAVENS.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]SAFE HAVEN: A seldom used bathroom somewhere in the building where you can least expect visitors. Try floors that are predominantly of the opposite sex. This will reduce the odds of a pooper of your sex entering the bathroom.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]TURD BURGLAR: A pooper who does not realize that you're in the stall and tries to force the door open. This is one of the most shocking and vulnerable moments that occur when taking a dump at work. If this occurs, remain in the stall until the TURD BURGLAR leaves. This way you will avoid all uncomfortable eye contact. TURD BURGLARS have been know to cause premature pinchage, which inevitably causes you to pinch one off in the middle.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]CAMO-COUGH: A phony cough which alerts all new entrants into the bathroom that you are in a stall. This can be used to cover-up a WATERMELON or to alert potential TURD BURGLARS. Very effective when used in conjunction with an ASTAIRE.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]ASTAIRE: This is a subtle toe-tap that is used to alert all potential TURD BURGLARS that you are occupying a stall. This will remove all doubt that the stall is occupied. If you hear an ASTAIRE, leave the bathroom immediately so the pooper can poop in peace.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]WATERMELON: A turd that creates a loud splash when hitting the toilet water. This is also an embarrassing incident. If you feel a WATERMELON coming on, create a diversion. See CAMO-COUGH.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]HAVANA OMELET: A load of diarrhea that creates a series of loud splashes in the toilet water. Often accompanied by an escapee. Try using a CAMO-COUGH with an ASTAIRE.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]UNCLE TED: A bathroom user who seems to linger around forever. Could spend extended lengths of time in front of the mirror or sitting on the pot. An UNCLE TED makes it difficult to relax while on the crapper, as you should always wait to drop your load when the bathroom is empty. This benefits you as well as the other bathroom attendees.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]FLY BY: The act of scouting out a bathroom before pooping. Walk in, check for other poopers. If there are others in the bathroom, leave and come back again. Be careful not to become a FREQUENT FLYER. People may become suspicious if they catch you constantly going into the bathroom. [/SIZE]
