Hardened charity shoppers will have a few weird ones in their list of finds over the years, whether it’s a coat someone died in or a signed book that wasn’t signed by the author.
This one might just be the best yet, and has gone viral on Reddit for its strangeness.
A Redditor who goes by the name of Kuxiaobude shared their find, which on first inspection looked like any old notebook.
The diary – which was spotted at a Goodwill store in the US – had something very interesting in the first five pages however; a child’s diary of their bowel movements over the course of a few months.
Each day was written out in the book with ‘poop’ or ‘no poop’ next to it, indicating whether it was a fruitful 24 hours for their digestion.
The Redditor posted images of the discovery this week, explaining: ‘My sister found this little nugget at the Goodwill the other day.’
The original diarist had clearly taken some care over the whole thing, using colourful markers to decorate the whole thing.
Love hearts and other little doodles were scrawled over the front, denoting that it may have been a labour of love for them.
The diary covers around two and a half months, starting in mid-August and ending on 31 October. It’s not clear whether it was this year, or the account dates back further still.
One thing that did stand out, though, was the fact that two days were missed out in the end of October, and the 31st has no record of poop or no poop, instead just saying ‘Halloween’.
Not sure whether that means they did go to the loo or not, but the diary then stops there.
Reddit commenters saw the funny side of the whole thing, with one saying it was a ‘poop log’ and another saying ‘what a s*** diary.’
Poop diaries aren’t totally crazy, and can be used as a tool for kids with bowel issues to keep track of things so they can speak to their doctor about them later.
That said, in most cases they don’t give the diary off to the charity shop. But share the wealth, we guess?
