    I guess depends on the reason. If it’s just a one off accident then I’d just put the dirtied clothes in the laundry (after a preliminary shit removal with just water), shower, and wash my clothes properly. But if I’m shitting myself it might be food poisoning in which case I am staying home, possibly glued to the toilet seat, and/or going to hospital if it’s serious enough.

    I’m kind of surprised by how many people have an answer for this already considered. I don’t think this is something I’ve had to consider since primary school.

    I’d probably consider the day over just because I would be worried by whatever medical condition led me to shit my pants out of nowhere.

    Days over, no coming back from that. Time for a long shower, fresh clothes, and go back to bed. Probably not sleep, because I’ll be dealing with embarrassment and flashbacks to graduating high school.

    My only comfort still remains that I was not alone that day. Several of us got awful cases of food poisoning.

        Same day, after the event at the school, thankfully, but I was with several fellow graduates when it happened. There was an extremely popular steakhouse we all went to with our families, and every one of us who ordered the signature steak ended up getting food poisoning, and several of us ended up getting caught very suddenly by it.

    Day’s over. I work in food service, and any symptoms of a GI illness are cause for a sick day as a matter of public safety.

    Just depends on reactions. If no one says anything I just go with it. If 5+ people say something I fix it. If 1-5 people say something they’re probably outliers.

    As someone with Crohn’s disease, this is a normal day. Honestly, I’d be feeling off until I shit my pants.

    If it’s before noon, it’s salvageable. If it’s afternoon, probably not. It also depends on how much. If it was a very minor shart (1ml), that’s a bit different than actually shitting your pants, imo.

    If it’s the latter, it may be time to see a doctor.

      Yeh I think the phrase “shit your pants” definitely implies like the same account of piop that you would have dumped in the toilet in a deliberate manner, except in your pants and most likely accidentally.

    If you shit your pants, do you keep going with your week or is your week over?

    If you shit your pants, do you keep going with your month or is your month over?

    If you shit your pants, do you keep going with your life or is your life over?

    I clean up and do whatever I still feel like. The arbitrary border of “day” means nothing to me, same as any other arbitrary border.

      I think it refers to being being out at work, or at a major event.

      If I shit myself at work, I’m going home. I’m not coming back, either.

      If I’m out hiking, same again.

      If i’m running errands, I might have to go back out to finish them. The groceries aren’t gonna buy themselves, and now I really have to do the laundry.
