Yes, I don’t have to read this. I should have just let the “let’s sift through our shit” thread go. There seems to be a lot of interest in shit and anuses here lately. I’m not sure what to make of it, but it’s getting to the point where I’m not so down with scatalogical, near pornographic fascination with anuses and shit. I remember when the mods took a lot of abuse because they were trying to make the boards more mature and not so juvenile and, well, gross. So pile on again. Anus color threads are fucking disgusting. The latest poop threds are fucking grossing me out. ---

I have no intention of piling on someone who is covered in poop. ---

[QUOTE=zuma] There seems to be a lot of interest in shit and anuses here lately. [/QUOTE] Lately? There are no more and no less than there has ever been. That is to say, scatological interest on these boards has always been very high. I blame Cecil: [Why is, um, fecal matter brown?](Why is, um, fecal matter brown? ) [Is coprophagia dangerous?](http://www.straightdope.com/columns/050610.html) [Does flushing the toilet cause dirty water to be spewed around the bathroom?](http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a990416.html) [In the Third World, do people wipe with their left hands?](http://www.straightdope.com/columns/011130.html) And that’s just human shit and anuses; if you include urine, farts, toilets, and animal feces, you will see Cecil has a fixation with waste elimination. It should come as no surprise that the message board follows his example. ---

Don’t read it, damn it. What is so hard about that? I saw the very thread you are talking about, but I haven’t read it. I go in bookstores, also, but I am not compelled to read everything in there. The only possible way that you are going to find a message board where everthing is exactly to your taste is if you start it yourself and keep it entirely private. ---

How can you possibly have been here since 1999 and think that scatological/icky/gross threads are a NEW phenomenon? When I started coming to this board, one of the most popular threads had to do with popping zits. I avoided that. Still do. Takes more effort to bother going in than to keep surfing past. ---

Is this the thread you are complaining about or is there another one? [Why is the anus (or more correctly, the skin surronding it) brown?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=419469) That’s in GQ and it’s not asking “what color is your anus?” ---

This must be some kind of attention whoring. If not, then seriously, this board is really just not for you. If these types of threads are a problem for you, I strongly recommend finding another board to spend your time in. Remember, this is a board dedicated to column that answered such questions such as [“Why is fecal matter brown”](http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a2_381.html). Live with these types of threads, or fuck off. It’s not going to change no matter how many of these Comstockery pit threads you start. You’ll be happier somewhere else. ---

[QUOTE=Q.E.D.] Tight. [/QUOTE] While I agree that Zuma might be considered a tightass (metaphorically, of course 🙂 ), “tight” is not technically a color. Zuma, this isn’t exactly the type of pile-on you were, expecting, is it? Seriously, when I see a thread that pertains to subjects I have no interest in, I pass them by - why waste your time and energy on a quixotic crusade to get Dopers to “grow up”? It ain’t gonna happen. ---
