I like the castle one. I think it has a picture of a dude pooping into a long chute that ejects the excrement outside the castle wall.
Wasn’t that Stephen Biesty’s Castle book?
Maybe it was. I just wish I had a castle with a poop chute in it :(
I remember that picture too!
You and me bud, kindred spirits.
This poop chute is the only thing I remember about these books
It’s the only thing you need to remember
Don’t forget the poop shoveling pit at the bottom
Oh yeah, there was a guy down there shoveling it!
I’m not sure if these are widely known, but I am a big fan of Stephen Biesty’s cross section books. I borrowed those from the library all the time. And bought them as an adult! They’re fun reads and very informative. Everyone who picks one up will end up smiling when they read them.
They were widely known, at least in my family. My brother and I went nuts for those books. The castle one even showed the facilities, naked asses and all. Funny shit when you’re 10.
Biesty includes a pooping figure in literally every drawing where a bathroom can feasibly be accommodated. Sometimes several. It’s basically his signature move.
Not that I would do anything different mind you. Even adult me always looks for the Signature Pooper.
This was also my jam as a kid when visiting the public library. The castle book and Incredible Cross-Sections really blew my mind as a kid.
Just got ran over by the nostalgia truck. Damn. That was cool feeling. I think the castle one was my favorite.
As a poor kid in latinamerica, without access to D&D manuals, those where my home mande RPG manuals. Everything hit with a d6 also because other kind of die where out of reach.
I think I had the “Human Body” one and a couple others. Cool books.
I literally have the Gem Stones one near me on my bed right now. They really are the best.
Popular Mechanics where they’d do something like this with a sub, harrier jet, bullet train, etc
The anatomy book is actually how I learned how procreation worked.
90s intensifies
Oh I think I had the explorers one but it was an Spanish version, although maybe it was a copycat or something can’t remember the details.
Confirmo que había unas versiones en español, no creo que fuesen falsas. En España, por lo menos
Gracias por confirmar… Lo busque en casa pero se habrá perdido o algo hace mucho tiempo…
