I mean the mathematician might be right here. A lot of bathroom scales are for measuring people-sized weights and a (granted, normal-sized) bowel movement would likely not be measured accurately on its own.

If we go with the engineer’s method for an accurate poo-only measurement, we’re going to need in involve a set of kitchen scales somewhere. This adds a further complication : does this person shit in the kitchen or do we bring the kitchen scales into the bathroom.

I may be thinking too much about this.

I bet if you didn't poop for three days the poo you take on the fourth day would be heavy enough to register on a typical bathroom scale. Anyone want to test this for science and report back?

Speaking of not pooping for three days, was there any follow up to that?

Not that I saw, unfortunately.

I fucking hate those that put that emoji in between every word. I have a stroke every time I try to read it.

That's kind of the point though

That's poor engineering, shitting on the scale won't change the weight, you need to shit off the scale
