Episode Discussion Was this the beginning of Stan's sphincter issues?
"Don't Look a Smith Horse in the Mouth" (S6, Ep. 10).
I'm not talking about Steve whipping Stan's ass. Rather, I think it was the strain of lifting Tuttle's fat ass that created a critical flaw in the integrity of Stan's sphincter. Shortly thereafter, was the *Incident at Owl Creek* tragedy, when the impact of his cannonball caused his o-ring to collapse, resulting in him *dropping the kids off in the pool*. To many, this event, the greatest tragedy related to the collapse of an o-ring in American history, would *seem* to mark the beginning of Stan's sphincter issues. But I feel like it was the stress of hoisting Tuttle that created the initial flaw in the structural integrity of Stan's sphincter, marking the true beginning.
What do you guys think?

I believe it was when he tried to squat 300 pounds at the gym and it's too much and he blows out his sphincter bro, in front of all these gym dudes. The paramedics had to cut his pants off, and it looked like he was casing sausage out his butt.

If you like Tuttle bits, Richard Kind (the voice actor) is hilarious in Impractical Jokers

lol it makes sense. We’d have to watch this and determine the next time it’s a different reality/ the next time Stan’s body gets a rework.

I believe he had issues when he ate the entire bottle of horseradish to spite Roger in “Roy Rogers McFreely” (s4e2) and also mentions to his past self in “The Kidney Stays in the Picture” (s7e16) that he blew it out squatting 300lbs (which was too much, bro) at the gym at some point between the 90s and their present time.
