    Something an incredibly large number of people do not understand is that solid objects cannot pass through you: anything larger than 1-2mm will not get past the Pylorus Sphincter at the end of your stomach.

    Any claims otherwise are misled bullshit.

    EDIT: Lots of typos

      I never threw the quarter i swallowed at 6 years old back up, doc said it likely passed. Thats hella bigger tam 1-2mm and there’s no quarters showing up on imaging… so how exactly does that work?

      Not saying I don’t believe this its just that reconciling this statement with real world experience isn’t adding up.

      And now I’m picturing the ‘Little Book of Calm’ getting absorbed and Bill Bailey running around looking like Jesus and quoting it. I never walked around like moose jesus so I guess I didn’t absorb it.
