When I was little, I used to believe that, when pooing, little yellow birds that lived in my intestines would push the poo out of me. They wore hard hats with lights on them like little miners. They used pick-axes and shovels and toiled away in my colon all day and all night preparing the poo. Then, when I had to go, a loud air horn would go off and they would know it was time to start pushing. I am not, as you might imagine, obsessed with pooing as an adult.
