I think what really grabbed people's attention is that he refused to explain why he wanted to do that.
Whatever his reason was, it was such a stupid thing to be memeing about that I felt at home here right away.

Don’t forget about that month of antique memes
It wasn’t a week, btw. It was three days.
And you still won’t explain why!
Not pooping for 3 days followed by pooping for 3 days straight
And then came the beans…
If I recall correctly, the follow up was the same person complaining about being painfully constipated for several days.
It's been a while, so I must have exaggerated it in my mind. Three days certainly sounds more plausible.
I missed out on “not pooping for a week” being the hot topic but there is more potential for funny answers to that than whatever is going on with moths and beans right now. And if you want to not poop for a week, I’ve heard opioids are effective.
It was more the lack of an explanation that hooked people, rather than just the not pooping - IIRC, we never ended up getting any real explanation for why this guy needed to not poop for a week.
It was honestly pretty great, people came up with everything from “he’s smuggling himself internationally in a shipping container” to “he’s determined to be the winner in a really weird Mr Beast video” to “he’s giving up on society to live with the sloths” before it started to turn into kind of a circle-jerk.
And of course, suggestions for stopping the poop included butt plugs, eating only cheese, butt plugs, a liquid diet, and more butt plugs.
Didn’t it turn out he was making a pilgrimage to Mecca and didn’t want to use public bathrooms or some such?
Nope, the poop thing was only entertaining as long as the one poster who started it kept it alive. The beans and jeans thing were both funny for a couple of weeks.
This moth thing is better than all of those combined. So many clever moth based memes expanding beyond the starting moth loves lamps starting point.
i’m pretty sure beans will never die
Someone’s out here documenting all the Lemmy lore right?
He deleted it! The post is still around, but all the associated comments are gone. Does anybody know if it was all archived?
I suppose it’s possible but I doubt it lol
I miss the days of wizard orbs. That weekend was pure bliss for me.
I just hope Margot Robbie is ok.
Dont forget the Fediverse chick. Shes everyones girlfriend.
Seems like it simultaneously last week and also a decade ago.
They’re both deep underwater skeletons and have been for like a decade idk why something that’s like ancient internet history is being treated like something new, Lemmy is an alternate universe or something
Pooping good, not pooping bad.
I don’t remember really remember this but there was apparently also a debate around whether bathing was environmentally friendly going on around the same time
¿Qué pasó con los memes en otros idiomas?
I miss orbs
Same comrade, same.

I remember a bit of Bean Jean overlap, and I’ve seen a bean lamp recently, but no jean lamp yet.
