Me and my bowels

I’d like to talk about my bowels and shit.

I failed my O-level biology exam. Back in those days, there were nine possible grades – 1 was best and 9 worst. Grades 7 – 9 demonstrated different levels of incompetence (they signified failure). I scored a miserable 8 which was an accurate reflection of my skills. Fortunately for me, I was a bit better at maths. At any rate, that’s one reason why I haven’t taken a huge interest in the intricacies of my bowel despite having a number of medical and scientific friends.
