Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo! He loves me and I love you!

Sentient feces. Living dung. Intelligent droppings. Basically, poo that's alive. Doesn't necessarily have to speak, as long as it's sentient. Anthropomorphised doodoo is generally for comedic purposes, but there are exceptions.

A subtrope of Toilet Humor and Animate Inanimate Object.

No real life examples, please; but how could there be?

Video Games

Web Comics

  • Crap Golems from Erfworld would probably count. Though being golems, they might only qualify as crap-based automata.

  • The Nostalgia Critic briefly becomes an example of this at the end of his The Garbage Pail Kids Movie review. "It's turned me into what the movie always was: a dirty piece of crap!"

  • Mr. Hankey in South Park.
    • Also, according to the episode "More Crap": Bono.

    • Also, the "star" of the The Ren and Stimpy Show Adult Party Cartoon episode "Stimpy's Pregnant". More like crying poo, but still portrayed as an animate object.
