Do you think because bacteria's are what makes farts smells bad and then we say "follow your instinks"?

I tried to look it up but the internet doesn't no

Hears my theory:

  • people say "listen to your guts"

  • guts has bacteria's and are bacteria's makes us happy or sad (this is science)

  • guts are stinky because of the bacteria's

  • people say "follow your instinks"

So is that this is if why we say to follow your instinks because their are stinks inside are guts that tells us what to do?

What do you think?

Wow. So funny. And so worth destroying the future of humans on this planet.

This mindset is silly. Agentic tasks and generating videos, sure, but these models use less energy to generate text than a few minutes of playing video games. You better at least be vegan, going around talking like that

Unless you mean because it's taking jobs, ruining art, and surveiling us and such? That's valid, but using it for free doesn't support it, so...

Because someone has to. For the word "instinct," from Latin instinctus "instigation, impulse, inspiration," noun use of past participle of instinguere.

  • in - "into, in, on, upon"
  • stinguere - "prick, goad," from PIE *steig- "to prick, stick, pierce"

So, in the end, the "stinct" has more to do with the word stick than it does stink.

Here's a reference link. https://www.etymonline.com/word/instinct

edit: I know this is a shit post. I just think etymology is neat.

How did you figure this out? I asked the internet and he didn't no

Except after we fart the instinks officially become outstinks. And I’m not following my outstinks.

So by that logic to follow your instinks you would have to fist yourself right?

Not bacteria, just bowel gases.

--Edit--

Although the gases are produced by bacteria, so there is that.
