What's so funny to me about it is that, out of all things - wand, creature, whatever - OP here just went with a gun, and posed the question as if they discovered some major plot hole. It just makes me laugh in my head of seeing Voldemort blow Harry Potter's head off with a Glock.

I mean a gun's easiest, point and click basically. If he's so bad people don't want to say his name, why not turn harry's gourd into a red mist at 4:15am and vanish?

Quora is actually tangibly worse than Facebook. I get emails (from the one time I really needed an answer) and otherwise dont engage with the site, and it decided to recommend me a neo nazi white nationalist group :yikes: :psyduck:

How much meth does one box of 96 count Sudafed make? is funny not for the og question but for the string of replies that go into detail with instructions on actually making meth and how the people who are writing the response definitely didn't nearly blow themselves up repeatedly.

If you want to skip Quora from your search results you can add -site:quora.com to your search parameters. Or the pro tip is to add a keyword for your search (eg: 'g' for a google search) with it in the saved search string so that it's always ignoring it. Adding pinterest is another great one to avoid cluttering your search results with bullshit. You can still search the ignored site by just going to the search engines home page.

I'm assuming... most people poop more? I know I am particularly irregular at once a week or every two weeks but surely for most people every other day is normal?

I frequently see a lot of Quora questions that appear to just be excuses for someone to write an essay. Can you answer your own question?

It's okay if you have any questions.


credburn posted:

Yes. It's even encouraged.

The big thing you have to understand about Quora is that they spent a very long time making no money at all. The founder is one of the early Facebook alums, so he got cash infusions much longer than anyone else would've, but the pressure's on now for them to bring in revenue. Anything that generates engagement is a positive no matter how badly it hurts the site's stated mission (which was never possible for a for-profit company to carry out).

Once every 3 days to 3x a day is the range that is considered normal. You are a freak.

You are literally dying, what is your diet like???

I've had a few goes at not making GBS threads for three days, and when I do it feels like I'm about to get turned inside out.

I'm the same way, there's a form of IBS that works inverse to the normal IBS where you only poop every week or two. I never feel constipated though, it's just the way my system works. My diet is, well, typical goon diet, but at a few points in my life I've tried eating better and even took on old person habits like Metamucil to see if it would make any different. It didn't.

Average person eats 4 lbs a day, 28 lbs a week, 50% might turn into poo poo depending on carb intake and such. Ever weigh yourself before and after? The difference must be striking.

I really need to know more. Because that's gotta be 1 to 2 weeks' worth of poops at a time, right? And if not, where'd it go? :iiam:

The amount turning to poo poo is a complex digestive biome situation. The only thing that really needs to come out your butt is bilirubin and certain ashes. Some normally indigestible fiber can be partly or fully fermented by gut flora if not eaten in intestine-casting amounts. Little poopers exist based on diet and their personal gut flora taking care of business very efficiently.

The fun physical chemistry debate is do you get lighter when fiber is digested into CO2 or when you fart?

It's your rival from the early pokemon. His own grandfather doesn't remember his name and can be easily tricked into calling him Poop. The same grandfather also gives the neighbour kid first pick of pokemon, and after an entire game of being called Poop by everyone including the four greatest pokemon trainers in the land, moments after victory his title is snatched from him by the same neighbour kid who may or may not be equipped with illegal genetic experiments, infinite items coalesced from the ether, and possibly literally gods.

Wait balls that's also a jrpg villain.
