Discourse
Spirited yet civil conversation in The Chamber, our moderated forum where fellows debate the great questions of the field.
A Distinguished Society Since MMXXVI
“In Stercore Veritas” — In poo poo, there is truth.
We are the world's foremost members' society devoted to the earnest appreciation, rigorous study, and dignified documentation of poo poo. Founded on the timeless principle that the unmentionable deserves, at last, to be mentioned — with reverence.

The Council's Highest Honour
Each month the Council reviews every entry in your Ledger and bestows its most coveted distinction upon the finest. This is that specimen.
Our Four Pillars
Membership is not a matter of taste alone, but of discipline. The Club rests upon four venerable pillars, each maintained with unwavering seriousness.
Spirited yet civil conversation in The Chamber, our moderated forum where fellows debate the great questions of the field.
The Ledger — a meticulous private archive in which members log, rate, and annotate their most cherished specimens and anecdotes.
The Study, our academy of curated writings on the history, science, and cultural significance of poo poo across the ages.
A global fraternity of the like-minded, bound by a shared conviction that no subject is too humble for serious appreciation.
The Founding Manifesto
“Every civilization has, in its heart, held one subject in common — and in silence. We simply refuse the silence. Where others avert their eyes, the Fellow of the Club leans in, notebook in hand.”
The Poo Poo Club was established upon a single afternoon's realization: that the most universal of human experiences had, for all of recorded history, wanted for a proper institution. We remedy this. We approach the unserious with the seriousness it has always deserved, and we do so together, in good company and better humor.

Words From Our Fellows
“For decades I believed my passion a solitary one. The Club gave me a home, a vocabulary, and — dare I say — a purpose.”
“The Ledger transformed my hobby into a discipline. I now maintain records my grandchildren will surely treasure.”
“Nowhere else on this earth will you find such a serious conversation about such a delightful subject. Impeccable.”
Not Idle Numbers
Ours is no mere signboard society. The discourse below is real, ongoing, and older than you might think.
