      But where and when is the crew supposed to go then? I don’t remember a single episode where someone mentioned they were off to drop some logs.

      Heck, imagine being a species that does this the normal way, dropping that unit like a real warrior. Not getting those breaks will put a constipated look on your face all the time!

        In a lot of the novels they refer to the “refresher” where they use “refresher paper” and honestly I would be really disappointed to find that they’re still using paper to clean their butts in 300 years.

            Yea, but only after they figured out that having tons of seashells onboard each space ship is a terrible idea if you haven’t invented replicators yet.

          Somehow I’m ok with the writers not finding a lore explenation for that problem. I don’t really want to know how every single alien wipes its ass.
