As to _how_, I don’t really know and I’m not sure I want to; but **Billy Rubin** , the OP of the “prehensile rectum” thread I linked to earlier, offered this explanation:

> This morning, privately, I confronted Mr. Fuckwicket. As nicely as possible. Apparently he does use, perhaps overuse, laxatives. He feels that if his digestive tract has anything in it he’ll immediately begin to get fat, and he can’t stand fat. So he shits like the exhaust of a jet engine. No Crohn’s nor other physical illness.
