    They should do a ghost layover effect when you sit down to shit. Like with competitive ghost car laps in racing but with defecation

    Think of the strain on the sewage system, then hours of barely anything.

    It’s even worse. You’re waking up in your specific time zone. Just as anyone else in that time zone does. You’ll get up and have a shit from North to South around the same time.

    There’s a continuing tidal wave of shitting going around earth.

    I usually have one child and at least one cat trying to get in the bathroom at the same time.

    I have a cat; I’m never alone on the toilet, anyway.

    Channeling George Thorogood…. I poop alone, yeah, with nobody else!

    This applies to almost everything everyone does all the time. At least a million people are having sex at all minutes of the day.

    It’s really worse if you live in a high-rise building. Usually the bathrooms are all built in a stack to align the plumbing. So there are likely people shitting above your head and below you. Same goes in any office building.

    Our toilets are just a network of buttholes.

    In boot camp the toilets were all in a large room (exactly as depicted in full metal jacket movie). You couldn’t shit without company unless you woke up at like 3am

    I don’t poop in the morning. Just a quick pee while I’m brushing my teeth.

  12. cwx149 Avatar

    I don’t shit first thing in the morning

    Pee sure but I don’t shit till later on in the day

  13. KrackSmellin Avatar

    Technically all our buttholes are connected together intra-town wise – all facing the same piping system

    I mean. If you think about it. If you jump on social media while going poo, others that are also online may be doing the exact same thing as you. And y’all are just on social media together and don’t even know it.

    THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER !!

    I can’t even remember the last time I DIDN’T pick the co-operative option when shittin

  17. 79forks Avatar

    I like to think about that from above. Like if you’re in an apartment or dorm situation there very possibly could be a person doing the same thing as you about a foot away only separated by a wall. Or you could be on the toilet and they’re doing something completely different than that still only a foot away. Makes you think that things we don’t see right in front of us don’t really matter.

    Better yet, imagine every morning when you’re waking up with your morning wood, the millions of other people also waking up with morning wood at the same time. Will you be joining them today in relief, or not? That is the question!

    Right now, someone, somewhere on earth, is experiencing violent diarrhea, possibly they’re on reddit, possibly not. And if they are and read this, I mourn for you.

    But yeah, communal shiddin.

    Tubes connected to pipes connected to Tubes

  21. Lee_Townage Avatar

    And your butt is indirectly connected to all the other butts in your area by a series of tubes.

    It’s more synchronised during major televised events. Superbowl break and suddenly you have millions of people taking a whizz at the same time. In the UK apparently the power plant people are watching football to see when breaks happen because so many people run their electric kettles at the same time it dips the power grid!

    that’s why i wake up at random times, never on the 0/5…i want alone shit time

  24. jdlech Avatar

    Even more weird, when you sit on the toilet, you’re connected to everyone else in your city who is sitting on the toilet (via all the sewer pipes)

  25. stevesmele Avatar

    Now imagine you live in the Burj Khalifa (163 floors), before the sewage was connected to Dubai’s sewage network. And everyone flushed at once.

  26. jamchuy8 Avatar

    Not only that, your all now connected by the sewer system in a way

  27. Miendiesen Avatar

    I figure there are about 56 million people shitting at any given time.

    Assuming we spend 10 minutes per day pooping, that’s 10/1440 minutes per day * 8 billion people.

    Of course, this assumes the pooping is evenly distributed throughout the day, which wouldn’t be the case. There would certainly be prime pooping times based on popular time zones.

    When I was little, I was obsessed with Mariah Carey. When i would go to the bathroom, I’d sit there and think “I wonder if Mariah Carey is going to the bathroom right now too”. Then my mind would wander, I’d get the job done, and off I’d go. Fond memories lol.

    Is it normal to poop frequently when waking up? Why doesn’t my butt do that? Am I dying? My anxiety is reaching critical mass

  30. M3owtivation Avatar

    Just sitting here, realizing that while I’m doing my business, there’s a whole world of fellow toilet-goers out there. We’re basically a secret society just with worse Wi-Fi.

    My upstairs neighbor and I seem to go at the exact same time. It creeps me out.

  32. Dammas33 Avatar

    What if all the people timed their flush at exactly the same time. Would it cause a shit tsunami?

  33. Razulisback Avatar

    I SAID….. even my bathroom schedule doesn’t match my bathroom schedule!!!!

  34. kutiencon123 Avatar

    I was thinking about this in the morning, but instead of toilet it was how much toothpaste are used globally in that specific timezone lmao.

  35. DodgerWalker Avatar

    If the average person spends 10 minutes on the toilet per day, the on average, 1/144 of the world is on the toilet at any given time. That’s over 50 million people!

    Blue man group does a great bit in Vegas about how the sewer system is a connected wide network

    Anyone else sitting on the toilet right now?

  38. emvircontents Avatar

    and hey, we’ll all meet again someday. quickest reunion’s down in the sewers, then at the water treatment plant, and latest out at sea. if we bump into each other in a fish’s stomach, say hi, dude.
