'Relaxed' dead bodies, poop, tmi

Factual Questions

oops.

Just FYI, had I not stumbled onto this image and its description, I would never have learned it was possible for the body to do this. I had always heard stories about lynchings gone awry – no neck snap – causing the person to slowly suffocate and essentially straining so much that they turned themselves inside out.

And no, I did not intend “shameful joy.” I find no joy in that photo.

I do, however, find joy in saying “schadenfreude.”

I just found a new wallpaper, thanks Mr.B.

Mr. B,

I’ve removed the link in your post. It’s too graphic even if it were relevant to the topic – relaxed bodies.

I, for one, appreciated that link.

One question depending from this one, in chronology:

  1. We poop and end up with it in our mouths (meconium) when we’re born
  2. We poop on the floor when we’re too young to know better
  3. We poop in the pool after we know better
  4. We poop in an open field during a Def Leppard concert
  5. We poop on the meaningful statue of the neighbor rival fraternity
  6. We poop our pants on the freeway trying to find an exit
  7. We, alongside a long-time, reliably-continent mate poop our pants in a movie theater showing Smokey and the Bandit
  8. We poop the bed

So we stand a good chance of ruining our poignant last words with a post-mortem utterance from Down Yonder? Man, that’s rough.
