I got hemorrhoids. So skid-marks are the least of my worries. ---

In the course of the next hour or so it may stay in, or little bits may… I don’t want to say ooze… I’m not really sure what happens. In any case I’m always glad when I can get home and get things straightened out. You either need to take your time and fully evacuate your bowels, or you should try my “bear down and wipe” method detailed above. Because what you’re describing is even worse than skid-marks - it sounds more like a blowout! 😛 ---

I think there are some folks who really should add more fiber to their diets. ---

> [@Cat\_Whisperer](#): > > I’m wondering about the “deep brown skidmarks.” Wasn’t “brown skidmarks” descriptive enough? I think we all would have known what you were talking about. 😕 Well just as there’s different colors and shades of poo, there’s different colors and shades of skidnarks. Yellow, orange, green. Light, medium, dark. I would think that deep brown marks would be the grossest though. > [@voltaire](#): > > You either need to take your time and fully evacuate your bowels, or you should try my “bear down and wipe” method detailed above.

I haven’t had em since I was 6, but I wouldn’t be surprised if someone on here experiences them as an adult. Y’all nasty. ---

Goddamn! Wet wipes, people! Right next to the toilet paper in stores. They’re even flushable now. It’s not rocket science. Geez, clean your nasty asses. ---

I have a habit which I thought was common sense but in the last five or six years have discovered is quite unusual, of inspecting my toilet paper after wiping and continuing to wipe until it is impossible to stain a new piece of paper. On the minus side this means I use more than most people but on the plus side it means I have a beautifully clean arse. The last time I had skid marks except for unusual situations (chemical toilets with limit wiping facilities for example) I was maybe five or six. There is no excuse for skid marks in an even slightly healthy individual. ---
