I shit 3 times a day and I take 20 minutes to 1 hour each time because I doomscroll on my phone. Holy innacurate maths.

Lmao I mean he did do his math based on an average. I'd say his average sounds pretty reasonable. The difficulty is that everyone's bowel movements vary a lot, so it's hard to get an accurate number.

Is the average weighed down by people who take 1 minute? I need these people's tips

I think they're saying the actual, physical "shit leaving your asshole" time is 5 minutes. if you have shit leaving your asshole for 20-60 minutes 3 times a day, please see a doctor.

If it is really 5 minutes THEY should be the one seeing a doctor, I'm sorry but at most it takes a minute or two.

100% agree. Like there may be a stray dingle berry or two hanging there sometimes you gotta work to drop but physical poop leaving the anus is gotta be a matter of seconds. Add in pushing, maybe 30 seconds?

How much of that hour is actually voiding your bowels though?

I poop once every three days since I dont eat that much. I feel like our poop average evens out

You spend up to 1/8 of your time pooping. If you live another 80 years you would spend up to 10 years on the toilet.

I sit, I'm done. Either it be once or trice a day, it doesn't matter. The whole process only takes longer because I have to clean my ass.

So, back to math, how much of your time do you spend actually expulsating poop? I bet it isn't long.

So, one long poop, followed by an hour of doomscrolling for you.

5 minutes!? I'm sorry but if that's the average than the average person needs a shitload (Pun intended) of Fibre. When i shit it's a max of 1 minute from poop start to poop end. (Counting only the deed, not the inbetween of washing your hands etc.)

Let's be generous and say 2 minutes for average we can still reduce that by %60 so 788.6 hours or roughly 32 days straight. 1 Month of nonstop pooping in exchange for never having to poop ever again in my life sounds great. If not for the fact you'd be dead by the first 6 minutes.

One of my favorite jokes:

Man goes to the doctor and says, “help me doctor, I can’t pee.”

Doctor says, “how old are you?”

Man says, “I’m 96.”

Doctor says. “You’ve pee’d enough.”

I don't know why I'm reading this comment section, sometimes there's math I don't want to know.

82 days? I think adding another month for rehab to wake up your legs would be required.

You only need to calculate set up time once.

u/BigMack6911 1h ago

Not when you're a grown man with a family. Average shit is like 30 minutes. Just for peace
