An unwritten rule of law that compels the gut-dropper to go no more than three bouts of shitting without taking a shower. The ratio is set such to allow for illness, camping, and general dirty arsed folk.
"I'm already on my third shower of the day. I knew I shouldn't have ordered that vindaloo"
"May I quickly use your shower? I went to that Brazilian All You Can Eat last night and I need to reset the shit/shower ratio"
"You shower quit a lot"
"Yeah, I'm lactose intolerant but still eat pizza"
"Your farts stink!"
"Yeah, sorry. I really need a shit but I'm at my limit with the shit/shower ratio and can't shower until the weekend"
