I don’t trust anyone who hasn’t shit themselves at least once as an adult.

Haha I couldn’t agree more. I think they’re just to cowardly to admit it. I must be the most trustworthy man you’ve ever encountered

So fun to read that my stomach feels a bit queasy now.

Haha that’s as good as a result as I could ever hope for

All I can say is reading you writing this makes me wonder why I worry so much about what I write. I think I need to pull out the stops more and just let it all flow. I just need to hang onto an extra pair of panties.

haha I don't leave home without! I was born without shame, but I do find the things you were worried about writing are probably the most interesting or funny.

I will keep that in mind. What have I got to lose? Other than my self-esteem. Oh GOD.

The good thing about self-esteem is that it’s your self a the wheel of it, in theory.

I will tell my self-esteem that.

My sphincter was tightening in sympathy at every paragraph. You poor bastard…. And those poor bedsheets!

However, I did poop up against a wall at 8:30am on a pretty well travelled Italian riverside foothpath, a month or so ago

haha as they say, a sympathetic sphincter goes a long way.

I'm on a good streak. I've not shat my pants in my thirties.

I believe everyone has at least one shit in your pants story -- and I'm pleased to see that I'm right, but somewhat disturbed/concerned that this appears to be NUMBER EIGHT?

Yes me too! I’m trying to pioneer an openness on the subject. Haha I think that is warranted. It got to the point where when I had a touch and go situation, I would lose the internal battle. That voice that says ‘you’re not going to shit yourself’ was countered by the lifetime of evidence. I’ve realised it was just my diet, I used to be a massive stoner and turns out there’s a correlation between eating eating litres of icecream each night and this kind of output

Reminded me of the time I was hungover (and recovering from Covid) on a flight from Finland back to the states, and my bubble-gut was unreal, ate a questionable piece of meat at the Helsinki airport before I got on the plane. Poor woman sitting next to me. I released my hot snakes over Greenland.

haha respect. It's important to remember that most people assume you haven't shat yourself.
