Fortunately toilets tend to stay attached to a specific region, so it's possible to know which unit system the best majority of people using it will be most familiar with.

While americans don't measure in centimeters, we do understand grams. Weigh the damn poops.

The arbitrary capitalisation of “Poops” and “Time” bothers me immensely.

superduperenigma@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 2y (1 reply)

But not Bigger?

RQG@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

The first letter if Bigger. That computes.

Sir. Sir. Sir! Your poop is too big. Please take it with you. Sorry for the inconvenience.

That's funny... until I actually think about a 2.5in diameter turd... then I'm horrified.

SlopppyEngineer@discuss.tchncs.de · 3 pts · 2y (15 replies)

Pretty much this size

urinnerchild87@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y (4 replies)

I think 2.5 inches would be closer to a soda can if we're using references.

Madison420@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y (3 replies)

2.5" in diameter is just under a baseball (2.8").

Johandea@feddit.nu · -1 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Can you please start using real units. Seriously.

Madison420@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

It's the same size as a cricket ball, 2.8".

lolcatnip@reddthat.com · 1 pts · 2y

No. 2.5" is in real units already. What's your problem with size comparisons?

nonailsleft@lemm.ee · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

They should just refer to the caliber

That thing is nowhere near 2.5" dia.

SlopppyEngineer@discuss.tchncs.de · 1 pts · 2y (6 replies)

I googled for 50 mm. That should be close enough.

2.5 inches is 635 mm. Thats much closer to 50 cm

SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net · 2 pts · 2y

That doesn't sound right to me. An inch has ~2.54 cm, so 2.5" should be 6.35 cm and a cm has 10mm, so that becomes 63.5mm

SlopppyEngineer@discuss.tchncs.de · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

1 inch is 25,4 mm, not 254 mm.

FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I am often incorrect. Today is one of those days

PickTheStick@ttrpg.network · 1 pts · 2y

Lol, 2.5 inches is over 2 feet?

funkajunk@lemm.ee · 12 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Whoever is making those poops, I feel so sorry for your tattered asshole.

That's bigger than a Coke can.

Rootiest@lemm.ee · 6 pts · 2y

Sure, sure. But they've probably been doing it for a while now.

I feel bad for the person who's come to expect them and isn't going to get their XXL turds today.

They are going to be very disappointed when they read that sign

Ecology8622@lemmy.ml · 12 pts · 2y

Just hang a poop knife. Problem solved.

Gork@lemm.ee · 11 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Time to squeeze them sphincter muscles to extrude a 4 inch long, 2.25 in diameter turd.

somethingsnappy@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (2 replies)

That is way less volume. Acceptable.

Here in Australia no one has "poop knives". American plumbing is a sad joke. Most Aussies don't even own a plunger.

I poop in metric so this doesn't apply to me.

I live in Japan and you can flush a pair of work boots down these toilets.

What should be the lemmy equivalent of the poop knife? A shit blade? A defecation spatula? A dung spoon?

PickTheStick@ttrpg.network · 2 pts · 2y

A bean batter.
