====== Canonicity of pissing and shitting ====== The **canonicity of pissing and shitting** refers to a thought experiment surrounding the likelihood of characters from any given fictional world produce urine and feces. If one of the aforementioned byproducts can be proven to exist within a particular world, it is assumed that the other does as well, unless there is strong evidence of the contrary. ===== History ===== This is a line of thought [[people:ocellaroid|ocellaroid]] often walks as a result of observing a lot of [[fat_fetishism|art that features characters consuming large quantities of food and drink]]. Many such works do not contain any mention of urination or defecation, leading one to wonder if these phenomena occur within the world of the story at all. ===== Classification ===== A fictional world is deemed to have **canon piss and shit** if one or more of the following criteria are met: - Urine and/or feces are explicitly shown within the text (e.g. a character is seen urinating into a bush) - Urine and/or feces are directly mentioned or implied within dialog (e.g. a character makes a comment likening a smell to that of feces) - Facilities implying the existence of urine and/or feces are explicitly shown within the text (e.g. a character is seen brushing their teeth in a bathroom with a toilet) - Facilities implying the existence of urine and/or feces are directly mentioned or implied within dialog (e.g. a character mentions needing to use the toilet)
