    Why does shitting your pants seem such an American phenomena? I’ve seen or heard about this activity through reddit a couple of times, and also on “people of walmart”.

    Is it a dietary thing? A cultural thing? is it just because most media is American? What’s the deal America?

      Seems to me like a UK thing. Trainspotting, Inbetweeners. I can think of those two just off the top of my head, there has to be more.

      No, it isn’t.

      It also happens in other countries.
