Correct feces comes as a series of white odorless spherical lumps.
Anything else, particularly brown foul smelling longer pieces are a sign of severe health problems and should be cause for alarm.

So all the suction force from that one long incredible slug doesn’t turn your outie to an innie and cause your butthole to slam shut while making kissing sounds that give you away.

As a nurse I can assure you this may be right for you and your defecation process, but doesn’t apply to all mankind. There is such and such.

Wait is poop supposed to come out as more than one piece?

There’s a Magic School Bus episode about this, kind of…

Your intestines turn back and forth, drying and forming your poo.

Also, your muscles contract in cycles to keep things going the right direction, not like a pincer on a tube at just the right moment.

Also, you probably don’t want poo strong enough to be one long piece.

Poop is not a strong material. It holds together a little, but if you make it into a long cylinder and try to pick it up by one end, it will break. Similarly, as your fecal sausage creeps out of your bung hole, at some point gravity or other forces may get the best of it, causing one end of the proverbial loaf to pinch off before the whole thing is extruded. But, if the drop isn’t too high, a practiced shitter may well be able to lay it down as one intact crap snake.

TL;DR: Fecal matter is fickle matter.

For the record, my poop comes out in one continuous piece, usually about 8 to 10 inches in length. I eat a lot of fiber

Wait, am I not supposed to have diarrhea all the time?
