Feces = singular or plural

I've been reading through this article, and I'm finding several sentences that are worded as if feces is a plural word. When sifting through the talk page for this article I saw one comment about the very same topic. I have been changing the sentences to reflect feces as a singular word (since I believe it is). I have looked around the net and I see the word always being used as a singular word. I don't know if there has been a shift in proper grammar, since I hear what I would consider improper grammar in the news all the time. For instance: "The crew are ready to deploy" instead of "The crew is ready to deploy", and "The public have made their decision" instead of "The public has made its decision". While crew and public infer plurality, they are singular words.... one crew (of several crew members), and one public (made of many citizens). I wonder... has there been a shift in what is proper? My microsoft word program does not flag "Feces are stinky." as improper.... perhaps I am mistaken? Eyknough 02:19, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What is this section about, really?

Personal hygiene

For personal hygiene, several companies market toilet tissue or wipes for babies and campers.[citation needed]

Isn't toilet tissue for personal hygiene all across the board, and not just for babies and campers? In addition, the 'citation needed' part: is that saying that a cite is needed for the production of wipes/tissue for babies and campers, or that a cite is needed to show that these products were designed for better personal hygiene?

I would think hygiene is the sole purpose for the production of toilet tissue and wipes; unless there is a company producing toilet paper exclusively to better TP trees in people's yards. Eyknough 02:27, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, if you wipe, that makes you a baby! Real men do it with a hand! (Sorry, couldn't resist...) CrowstarVaseline-on-the-lens-Jitsu!fwends! 00:49, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Human Poop

Seriously, someone did a bad thing by archiving the entire previous discusion on Human feces. Now we have to start over.

Lets Begin.

I vote in favor of restoring the picture of Human Feces back on the Feces page in the Human feces Section. (Preferably, the poop on a plate pic)

ANYONE DISAGREE OR AGREE WITH ME?

There's no need to start over - the archives are there to be read by anyone who is interested. For the record, I disagree - the picture does little except add shock value.--Kubigula (talk) 17:20, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AW Cmon! That shock value is what make this discussion popular. And About the archives, most noobs wouldnt bother clicking on those links. Anyway, i really liked the Poop on a Plate Picture. (I wish i saved it to my computer) (When i say "I like it" i mean that I LAUGH AT IT AT EVERY OPPERTUNITY! HAHAHAHAHAHA!)

I think the previous comment was dumb. Any living person has, at least once in a moment of its life, saw its own poop. No need for an image of human feces. You're obviously a troll, or profoundly acting like one. gb2/4chan --Sébastien Leblanc ( Talk | E-mail ) 04:23, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A TROLL? lol! Look, I'm not a troll. I just believe that there has to be a better pic. All there is now is a pic of dried up cow manure. That's Bullshit! (pun intended.)

It dosent matter what you say, i still want that poop on a plate pic back on this article. Masterhand10(Talk)(Contributions)

I agree with Masterhand10! There's something about poop on a plate that gets you all wound up inside. Makes your day go a little better. Gives you that zest from within kinda feeling. You know, how when your day sucks or you're just lonely, so you want to see a big picture of poop on a plate. I'm feeling that right now. Uhhh, by the way, who ordered the poopoo platter. Anyone? Came on a plate. Any takers? Tratare 05:09, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dude i also agree with masterhand, LOL. Furthermore human feces and animal feces are very different, and thus deserve separate pages. -(do you eat the same food as animals? if you do then you really quote unquote "are a troll" —Preceding unsigned comment added by - anon124.168.115.172 09:05, 26 August 2007 (UTC) [reply]

YEAH! I've got me some suppourters!
Anyone Else? Who likes the idea of having a Piece of Human Poop on a Plate on this article?
I'm thinking of making my own, but my poop comes out in a strange log form and dosen't wind up.

The article was move-protected yesterday due to "perpetual vandalism" by Can't sleep, clown will eat me. He or she may be able to provide a more detailed answer. --ElKevbo 15:36, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

One day, I hope to make "FECES" the wikipedia article of the day. What a great day for poop that will be! 216.107.226.196 22:55, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This may be a fun prospect for some of the much younger wikipedians I guess. Jackaranga 01:42, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
