My elementary school teacher told us once that Americans only poop once a week. The climate is colder in North America, so their intestines pack the poop together very densely such that they only need to poop once a week. She said you’d be sent to the doctor if you poop daily in America.
Is this true?
Your teacher was either an idiot or fucking with you lol
The climate is colder in North America
Colder than where?
Your elementary school teacher should have been fired.
What the fuck am I reading
Lol
Common misconception. They only poop when Trump tells them to. If they don’t wait til instructed ICE comes and shoots them.
Land of the free, ladies and gents.
On the off chance that this is a real question:
I am an American, and I poop regularly, every day.
I will admit that I do not adhere to the standard American diet, but I know that I am not alone in my poop habits.
I genuinely don’t understand the logic of “America is a colder climate”, because that is ostensibly incorrect.
Is this why so many Europeans treat us like some different species
Having worked in fentanyl crisis towns and then have the neighboring towns proudly proclaim how great America is and how much FREEDOM we have… Totally understandable how Europeans look at us.
Hell, I’ll never forget the look my european coworker gave me when I told them we have a two week parental leave and it’s a fire-at-will state.
Yeah but that’s us being oppressed, I would think it makes sense they find those things abhorrent. But not really the same thing
If an American had thought something as ridiculous as the OP about some other country (and genuinely no offense meant to the OP) they would get destroyed
you seem lost.
this is clearly a !shittyasklemmy@lemmy.uhhoh.com post
Lol, your teacher sounds amazing.
Oh, she was xD
Nope. I shit every day, in the morning, on a schedule.
Your teacher was full of shit. Sure the Standard American Diet (SAD) is terrible and leaves fiber much to be desired, but not every American sticks to the SAD. I’m sure other countries have people that have shit diets and get constipated too, not just the US.
Generalizations don’t help anyone.
You’re mixing up Americans with sloths, but I guess we’re not that different
Are you still in elementary school? If not, you can’t possibly still believe this
If not, you can’t possibly still believe this
I did until now lol.
I’m busy with other things. I cant give much thought to how many times people in a foreign country poop.
Yet you posted this and didn’t stop to think about it?
No? Why would I? And what conclusion can I come to by thinking? Ive never been to NA anyways. Sometimes its ok to be ignorant of stuff
Ah ok you’re a troll. Got it.
literature.cafe
Checks out lol
Wdym? Isnt this a nice instance?
Is this ragebait?
You are rage baiting 😂
67% come on someone rate this to change the number
done
…it’s still displaying 67%
refresh
O now it’s 71
Thanks bro you’re a bro
What is?
upvote ratio
Ah, is this about that six seven shit?
That’s silly. North America is huge. In the US South, it’s very common for people to poop every day. In fact, you usually wouldn’t even talk to a doctor about it. But as you get to the northern states and into Canada, it’s so cold that people don’t poop at all!
So the 1 day thing is probably just someone averaging out the numbers.
Pooping Georg, who lives in a cave and poops 10,000 times a day, is an outlier adn should not be counted
Georg washes out the canyons and floods the plains with nutrients. He single handedly sustains a nation. How dare you.
They say when Pooping Georg eats borscht, the rivers run red. Some have taken this to mean that Pooping Georg is dying (and thus our fertile soil) however, it’s just beets.
Thoughts and prayers for Georg
He’s fine, it’s a lifestyle thing for Georg
And the president who shits every time he draws breath.
Indeed, I have never pooped in my life because i’m above the 45th parrallel
Bowel movements vary by person. From 3 times a day down to once every 3 days. Less than once every 3 days is considered concerning medically, but not necessarily a problem.
Your teacher was the one full of shit.
Thank you. I feel like addressing the pure science of this is important. Not only do Americans poop, every cultures on the planet poops the same way (more or less). We are the same! Break down borders! Anarchy! Shit everywhere! No. Literally, visit an American truck stop. SHIT EVERYWHERE!
No.
