A "movement" of our own

Since we can't be like "able-anal-ed" folks and "take a dump," we need a saying of our own. "Draining the bag" just doesn't cut it. Some candidates to consider:

Trapshooting. Has a nice ring to it. Imagine: "Hey Sally, back in a jiffy... gotta do a little trapshooting."

Turboturd. For the ostomate in a hurry.

Dash-of-splash. Similar to turboturd, but with some recoil.

Easysqueeze. When you know it's gonna escape quick.

Vulcan velcro release. OK... a little unwieldy... but a possible hit with
Star Trek fans. Possible scenario:
Captain Kirk: "Spock, take the helm."
Spock: "What's the matter with you?"
Kirk: "Gotta do some Vulcan velcro release. It's Scotty's damn warp chili again."
Spock, rubs chin: "Interesting."

Let 'er rip, then drip. For those days when you wonder, "Why did I get out of bed?"

And my personal favorite:
Blazing Saddles. (with apologies to Mel).

I call mine “The Producer,” which gives me movie star vibes.

Well it's just coming upto a year since I had my emergency stoma. Since joining MAOM I have learnt all different kinds of ideas to help with the stoma. Not only that I have made a lot of good friends who I can talk to. The beauty of this site is it's not just giving tips and ideas we talk about anything and everything. So thank you for giving us a great site. XX

Ok, now that was hilarious. I'm hurting from laughing so hard. Humor makes everything better.

I like a dash of splash. That sounds like my ostomy emptying experience.

Pouch Purge is excellent. When in a hurry, you could shorten it to... back in a minute, I gotta take a PP

Very helpful

I'm probably 50/50 on Turboturd and Easy Squeeze. We have an RV, and we call the toilet and black water tank cleaner the Turdnator, which is why I find Turboturd so flipping hilarious 💩🧻🤣

Oh... I like that. The Turdnator. The Terminator himself came to my company while he was Governor of California. Everyone kept yelling, "I'll be back," during his speech.
