Current Events > $10 billion, but you shit upon hearing the word "the".

(+) Yeah! (+)

Now THIS is a $10 billion dollar question. Every time you hear someone say "the", you shit, no matter where you are or what you're doing/wearing.

That's what adult briefs are for.

Does that include recordings on TV and such?

Yes, then I have my ears decapitated

The the the the

What about Vegy variations of The?

Easy. Move to a language where they dont speak English or where everyone speaks like Vegy and uses "de" instead.

Too similar to the.

---

No. Thats humiliating

---

So basically, if someone says "the" too many times in succession, I shit all my insides out? I'm good.

Just say, "It's okay, I'm a billionaire."

$10 billion is a ludicrous amount of money, but it just wouldn't be worth it. You'd have absolutely no quality of life.

---

My name is "The" and I already have $100 billion, so no.

Just not for me

What if a person with a stuttering problem says it like th-th-th-the?

Do I half shit myself 3 times and completely soil my trousers on the fourth The or will it count as one since the word is only said once completely?

Also, will the potentcy of our shits depend on how strongly the word is being said? Like an all caps and bolded THE! vs. the. Any difference at all?

---

You shit yourself to the point where the weight of your dookie drops your pants

---

Your ass would literally be destroyed and you'd be in excruciating pain. No thanks.

---

I feel like that word is used so often that you'd literally shit yourself to death.

---

Nah. I'm not sure I'd even enjoy the money if I constantly have this curse in the back of my head. They say "the" a lot in airports, in meetings, in conversation, etc. I'd have to constantly worry about shitting myself when I meet Katy Perry or Joe Biden or in concerts or on the radio or wherever.

You would die within a day or two

Rip man dysentary gary shit up to 99 poops

If you can still shit, even when you're running on empty, I feel like this ends with you being kidnapped being used for profit somehow. Powering a turbine? Infinite manure, maybe?

Lol if any amount of poop was useful for powering a turbine or for energy, we would've been doing it for quite a while now

Two different thoughts. Manure has been useful throughout human history. For spinning a turbine, basically you could create a waterfall, without having to have do work moving the "water" up in the first place. A free waterfall that you could place anywhere not bound be fluctuations of nature has to have some kind of value.

Does reading the word count? Or just hearing it audibly?

I'm confused. Are you saying a poop waterfall that would spin a turbine? If we could use poop to spin a turbine, we would already be using trash to spin them too

extra 50 billion if you expel shit at mach 3 speed

It takes energy/work to flush a toilet, because somewhere in the process, you had to move water upwards against gravity. Even if you put a waterwheel or turbine or whatever in the poopfall's path, you would still net out losing energy because of entropy and all that.

But if it's magic infinite poop, you could put a pooping man up high, running hundreds of turbines, and you get that energy for free. Honestly, it's probably a pretty marginal gain. It was just the firs thing that came to mind on how to extract some value from the ability to create matter from nothing.

The reason water turbines work is because it's a shit ton of water flowing which is a lot of mass. A lot of mass means you can spin a big wheel, and a bigger wheel means you can produce more energy. It takes a lot of force to move a big wheel and less force to move a smaller wheel. One guy shitting infinitely would probably only be able to spin a very small turbine that would power like a little LED light and not even for a notable length of time. If anything, your idea should be used in sewers when water pours in, that way we're including all of society's water use back into creating power and honestly would be a neat change/idea. But in this scenario, the infinite mass created is literally waste so we can't do anything with it, unlike say if he was shitting uranium or something, and the force of one guy's shit moving downwards creates a negligible amount of energy.

Also it was my understanding that you wouldn't create magical shit, you'd just involuntarily shit out any shit currently inside you.
