"I shit alot..." I heard that line as it was directed from one guy to his buddy at the table next to me. Yet, it was not so much the blatant (and public) news of his bodily functions that took me by surprise. The person speaking was a normal enough looking guy. Regularly build as far as I could tell or though he must have been too hungry to take of his jacket before he sat down to eat. He, his friend and I as well were each downing a cheap pizza-slice with the obligatory dryness-compensating dressing on top, as he went on with his mouth full; "I'm telling you I really shit a lot!"

Now as mentioned he was as a regular build person, average height and stature and neither fat nor slender. Just regular. One can only assume that his daily food intake must be equally regular as well. Yet, apparently he reckons he shits more than other people do. Obviously, why else would he be talking about it?

I just don't think that is the case. I mean, what feces-Olympics did he win since he can proclaim himself king of the turds? What grand medical experiment revealed him to be the great master shitter - an anatomical marvel capable of super human defecating? Who monitors his dumpings and feeds him intell regarding his amount of manure versus other people's?

Probably nobody, which means that odds are that he shoots out the same amount of crap as any other dude with an appetite for shitty pizza-slices. But that is the human ego for you.
Shit!
