a turd?
Certain people are claiming that it does, a point with which I disagree. What are people's thoughts?

Okay, a little background. Chuck Storm showed me this youtube video of mythbusters trying to disprove the myth that you can't polish a turd.
They take some turds, some other pieces of fecal matter and water and turn them into balls of shit. Actual balls. Those are not fucking turds, they are shitballs, right? Big difference. Then they polish the balls of shit and say that is evidence that you can polish a turd, basically. No fucking way. Let me eat Jimmy Dean Breakfast Sausages and PF Chang's for a week and go drop like a five pound log in their lab. Then they can try all god damned day to polish that thing up while maintaining its original shape. Then, they'll have an experiment.
Please Wasteland, settle this dispute, don't let me down.

That's the point though. The turd doesn't need to maintain its original shape. Just because a person changes the shape of your 5 pound turd, that doesn't mean it ceases to be a turd. I'll stipulate that what the Mythbusters did (taking a bunch of individual pieces of turds and forming them into one ball of sh**) wasn't polishing a turd, but that doesn't mean it doesn't prove the concept. |

Well now you're backing down. I think of a turd as a log-like, solid or semi-solid piece of shit that falls out of ones ass that is tapered on both ends. Immaterial changes to the shape made after the turd exists the anus don't change the underlying fact that it is a turd. But not every piece of shit is a turd. There is diarhea, there are nuggets, there is corn, there are peanuts, there is mud, there are lot of subspecies of shit that simply are not turds. And please tell us, oh lawyer man, why the hell would there need to be a word "shitball" if a shitball is just a turd? Granted, some turds might look like shitballs, but that is certainly not dispositive. |

If you step on a dog turd and smash it all up, it ceases to be a turd after you remove your foot. Then it is just a pile of shit or a smeared puddle of shit.
It has undergone a material transformation.
Additionally, if one were to take a turd, flatten it down into a patty-like shape, it would not be a turd, it would be a turd patty. Totally different. It's the line of "material" change to the shape.

It's the line of "material" change to the shape. You don't get to change the argument by including your weasely lawyer words like "material". A flattened turd is still a turd. It's just a flat turd. Moreover, you seem to be ignoring the fact that many turds naturally have a spherical shape. Horse turds, for example, are much more spherical than the archetypal log shaped human turd seen in two girls one cup and to which you refer in your earlier post. You cannot pigeon-hole all turds into the cylindrical paradigm that you seem to be attempting to. Assuming arguendo that you are correct that, which you are not, a horse turd could be reasonably polished into a sphere without "materially" changing the form of the turd. |

Assuming arguendo that you are correct that, which you are not, a horse turd could be reasonably polished into a sphere without "materially" changing the form of the turd. It's a matter of degree. There is a line between when an object is a turd and when it is a pile of shit. Getting back to the original point, a man made sphere is absolutely not a turd. Irregardless, you clearly have not seen 2 girls 1 cup because that is more of a "soft serve ice cream" style of shit, and not a turd at all. Perhaps you are thinking of 2 girls 1 finger or some other scat video that you sit around watching all day. And trying to bring horse turds into the mix just doesn't work. How many times have you ever heard someone call something "horse turds?" Fucking never because there is no such thing, there's just horse shit. It all boils down to a matter of degree, material changes and you no longer have a turd, you might have nuggets or you might just have some shit laying around. The Wasteland will vindicate me tomorrow. |

BTR....no matter what shape your body is, you're still a turd most of the time. Does that settle the dispute?  |

More importantly......why is it the bigger the shit one takes, the less one has to wipe?  ? While the smaller the turd, the more one has to wipe.......I find this odd and wish the Mythbusters would feature this concept on their show |
