Scat, shit, faeces (or feces if you prefer), stool, log, ordure or just pooh. The excrement discharged from the bowels, consisting of bacteria, cells exfoliated from the intestines, secretions, chiefly of the liver and a small amount of food residue. Yummy.
Of course, from diarrhoea to constipation and all the differences of colour and texture in between, we are all interested in our own pooh. And if you've ever been a mum, the pooh of your babies too. And we are all unified by the almost religious experience of having a damn fine bowel movement.
But it takes self-control and the ability to reconstruct in your mind what
years of toilet training and social convention have taught you to enjoy scat. Now that is
hardcore and I take my hat off to all of you who have mastered
it.
