I mean, I go; I wipe, employing my customary combination of folds and bunches , depending on need; I finish up with a flushable wipe. Everything is clean and super-chill. So I find a bathroom. I go into a stall, lock the door and pull down my pants. Hand trembling, I reach for the TP. I wipe, and there it is.

Three years ago I had my first tonsillolith I went to the doctor because I thought it was a tumor or some shit; I was relieved but also, fucking gross. I now recoil at the appearance of my hand backs, where my freckles have bled together to form what appears to be a crepe.

I went from spray-on sunblock and an expired but still mostly full tube of Clearasil to an entire bin of steroid creams and antifungal sprays. Why might that be? Rashika: Nice fact you have there! Our bodies are just fascinating!

Jono: Yes you are absolutely right! I love reading and analysing from evolutionary point of view but the biochemistry behind it is fascinating too!

I always thought the pooping of the pants was related to the fight-or-flight response activating the sympathetic nervous system and almost completely shutting down the parasympathetic nervous system pathway.

Very interesting to read about it from a different point of view; from an evolutionary point of view. Anyway, I remember going on an excursion once, looking at marine life. I found a sea cucumber which, when picked up, immediately ejected something into the water. It startled me, and upon asking the demonstrators about it, they informed me what was ejected was most likely its lungs!

Interesting post Vivian!!! Actually, fear is created and regulated in our body by the hormone cortisol, the result of which are the above responses.. Loved reading this and laughed out loud! A great take on an embarrassing topic. Might stay at home in case of accident..

Haha, that was very amusing, and yet a lot of it made sense. Interesting angle on fight-or-flight. Haha,great take on the evolutionary adaptions of survival.

The use of a horror film to explain the reason why we have those adaptions was great!! Good article.
