    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.

    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.

    Before noon? Yeah take a shower and get back to it. Any time in the afternoon; yeah fuck that I’m going home and smoking a bowl.

    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.

    Really depends on what I am doing. Whatever I was previously doing has been been put on an indefinite pause until I can get new clothes and probably take a shower. But I have kids, so the day must go on.

    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.

    Depends on your plans for the day. If you’re heading down to the swimming pool then everything might just work itself out.
