It’s amusing to me that ‘poo’ is so widely accepted. Even during my 8 month stay in the hospital, no one used any other term except poo. Even the surgeons.

The correct medical term would be feces. But that’s just over the top.

You have to be understood by everyone. A lot of people will just nod their head and say yes rather than admit they don’t know that word you just said, hence MGH neurosurgery MD/PhDs asking everyone at 6 in the morning if they’ve pooped or peed yet.

Doctor can’t communicate!

Also, my personal favorite is when the newbies write in the patient’s chart that the patient’s wound is “very pussy”. It never gets old watching them panic when we remind them to say “pus” and write “purulent”.

I have to take you up on this... are you saying it's too rude? Too unusual? Poo is a very common term indeed.

I work in a hospital and I usually say ‘poop’. I hear some providers say ‘bowel movement’ as in “when was your last bowel movement?” But I feel like patients don’t always know what that means and it’s just unnecessary syllables.

God I hope they don’t start snooping around my place or they’ll think they found a Sasquatch colony

This explains the penguins’ waddle and instincts to sit atop of a large egg shape.

My question is why are they focused on poop and not the penguins themes

They must've pooped a lot in order for them to have seen it from space
