Yeah, the meme itself made me laugh out loud, but I almost didn't save it because the word "bootyhole" gives me the creeps...

(Not to judge OP, or anyone who uses the word, this is a me problem)

Can someone explain why coffee does that? I've not been able to find an explanation while being on the toilet at work.

Only coffee does this to me though. It's got to be a combination of things. I know coffee is higher in caffeine than most other drinks, but I sometimes take a caffeine pill, which is even higher, and it has never caused the coffee shits.

There's something else in coffee that causes the explosive GI tract feeling. I know because I get the same effect. And I still drink it, I just have learned to deal with the pain and fullness "down there." I drink diet coke, and it sometimes causes the same thing if I drink too much of it.

I still drink it too. It only causes the effect probably 1/10 times or so though for me. I don't get it from anything else I've had so far.

For me, coffee always causes GI irritation and "stimulation," even though I only fill my cup 1/3 with actual coffee and the rest with water. Diet coke can cause the same thing in me, but without it I get massive "withdrawal" headaches. And, my doctor actually recommended I keep on the caffeine to stave off the migraines I get almost daily.

I'm not investing that kind of capital into an anus I haven't even seen yet

Yip mine too. I don't know why, coffee makes me feel like my bowels are gonna explode. But I still drink it, only I water it down a lot (my tummy can't handle it). If I don't drink it, I get get severe headaches, and I need the caffeine to help wake me up. Some people say it's the hot water, hot water can be a stimulant for your guts. But by the time I add water, it's pretty tepid so I think it might be the acid in it that's upsetting to my GI tract.
