I do think this has a chance of breaking records for clinical trial participation rates.

These measurements will not be complete if they do not measure the other two states of matter, liquid and solid. I don't know about you, but they've been known to appear.

As long as you're not achieving Plasma you're probably fine.

Some things should be left unknown.

I know this is worthwhile, especially with the rise in colorectal cancer in younger adults, perhaps this will help in early detection.

But I did take a double take and go “Is it April already?”

And I just invented a fart-tube to route gasses away from sensors - already assuming farts will be taxed.

Meta should buy this and make people in 3rd world countries watch this in real time

Was just thinking about the surveillance aspect of this. Nobody would be able to pretend it was someone else who farted.

This reminds me of one of the pinnacles of Canadian culture, Kenny vs Spenny. In one episode titled “Who Can Blow the Biggest Farts?” they used a device that measures flatulence to judge who blew the biggest fart.

I assume with this underwear we all can participate in gamified flatulence with a global leader board.
