When I lived in Japan one thing I noticed was that in the bathroom humor comics the turds were always these spiral-shaped piles. A little different but nothing really worth dwelling on, until one day me and my family were hiking in the woods. We came around a bend in the trail and there was this perfect spiral-shaped pile of shit, like one long extrusion of the stuff coiled upon itself, right smack dab in the middle of the trail. We all stood around and marveled at it, commenting on the fact that it was in the middle of the trail rather than off to the side, and how perfectly shaped it was. It was almost certainly human, we decided. Then I said it was funny, my shit never looked like that but this pile looked just like the Japanese cartoons. We all started laughing because we realized it was true, and then we all stood around the pile of shit and started speculating as to how one would actually produce such a pile - do you aim your butt and swivel it around in a circle? A great time was had by all.
