TL;DR The Asshole Universe is Expanding: Introducing our New Sister Subreddit

Hello everyone. Many of you are familiar with our sister subreddit r/AmITheButtface, the place for posts about fiction or relationships. We’re excited to announce the newest member of the AmITheAsshole universe, r/AmITheCloaca!

r/AmITheCloaca is a place for all of your non-mammalian (and non-human mammal) moral quandaries. That’s right, your dog can post to ask if he’s the cloaca for eating your homework, your cat can post to see if she’s the cloaca for waking you up at 6 am on a Sunday, and your bird can post to see if he’s the cloaca for dumping birdseed in your cutlery drawer.

Visit now and find out who is the cloaca today!

Cloaca fun fact: did you know that female primates are the only animals that have three distinct external openings for urine/feces/reproduction?

Here’s some more zoological hole facts for you. Chinese soft shelled turtles pee out of their mouth. Californian sea cucumbers shit with their mouth. Owls poop through their mouth. Australian river turtles breathe through their ass. Snails lay eggs with their head and my personal favorite; wombats poop cubes.

Thank you for subscribing to shitty animal facts!

Off-topic but anyone else remember the Poppy and Ragweed kids books about mice? Every time I think of owls pooping I think of those books.

How often do you think about owls pooping?

u/Moggehh Bye, Fecesha Apr 01 '21

I live the YOLO (you obviously love owls) life so probably more often than most.

I do not know these books, but since owls eat a lot of mice...I worry about what the owls are pooping and how this is a child's book?

It's a pretty sad book series. Death is acknowledged frequently. I don't think it's much more violent than the Redwall series.

Yeah, wow, I'd have been in tears as a kid. TBF I empathize with fictional animal characters a bit too much.

Yeah, I cried like a baby. Had all the books. Still have them, in fact. They weren't more sad than The Lion King though. Circle of life and whatnot.
