If it's any comfort, my "acclimating to GLP-1 agonist and metformin" self-shitting happened on a date (well, directly after a date, while I was driving home [mercifully on my own]), about 80% of which I spent feeling sick and looking sweaty and weird. It only happened the one time, though, so with any luck you'll acclimate and be fine.

It's been close to a year 😭

I've had some intestinal issues in the past comrade and I can tell you for certain that while most people will never admit to it most of us have probably shit ourselves a little bit at least once.

I feel absolutely no shame about this and we should normalize being able to talk about the fact we have all thrown away at least one pair of underwear at work.

Remember the rule, "never trust a fart" especially if there is any doubt at all, will save you emberassment if you play it safe and just take a bathroom break. Worst case you can say you just had to pee, best case you save yourself an unfortunate incident.

It's true, everybody has a little doodoo ass sometimes

[-] LaBellaLotta@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Well said comrade pibb

100%. Also it's a good idea to keep a change of clothes in your trunk or bag just in case. I remember I had an observation with a prof while student teaching, and I split the seat of my parents in first period. I had to drive home and back during 2nd just to barely make it in time for my 3rd hour observation. Now I keep a spare pair of pants with me.

I hadn't ever split my pants seat before, and it also hasn't happened since

Havana syndrome confirmed

Let they who has never sharted themselves a little bit cast the first stone!

I worked next to a guy who shit his pants at work and the only outcome was he got to go home early. I wouldn’t worry about it.

[-] Zvyozdochka@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago

Then all of the sudden the entire office started shitting their pants

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago

The sympathetic pants shitting response

[-] pierre_delecto@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 2 years ago

Haha nobody wanted to follow his lead. I remember he had started a higher fiber diet before this happened. If anything this incident probably discouraged people from making healthier eating decisions.

[-] Speaker@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

When you get out of work due to shitting yourself, it's called "the brown note".

[-] heggs_bayer@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago

Blame it on Hamas.

[-] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 18 points 2 years ago

One time I ate an entire box of frosted mini wheats before my shift baking bagels. Turns out that fiber is not a myth after all.

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago

lmao for real in this thread we should all admit to ourselves and everyone how we have all sharted at least once in our working lives. I think it will unironically build solidarity for comrades with IBS. It's more common than most people know.

[-] glans@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago

According to The Rules, if you aren't fired first thing tomorrow, that means you've scared them. You are in the power position.

"putin shit my pants brb"

[-] Poogona@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

I don't think I've ever actually shit myself as an adult but I will stand in solidarity with my doodoo-assed comrades

[-] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

Civil servants have to shit their pants at least twice daily to comply with new austerity measures. You'll need to improve performance.

[-] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago
[-] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago

No, as long as it doesn't keep happening no one will give a shit (ho ho).

If you are sick enough to shit yourself you might be too sick to work

Permanent diarrhea is the most common side effect of semaglutide injections.

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

You don't have to be sick to shit your pants

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Why would you get fired for shitting your pants?

[-] Beetle_O_Rourke@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

Got a bit paranoid after a convo with a long term unemployed friend on the drive home.
