I'm just the opposite. I like (?) suppositories because they're dependable and predictable. Laxatives are not. They can kick in anytime, anywhere.

When I'm scheduled to go or think I may have to, in goes the 'bullet' and about two hours later, I'm all done. Very few accidents unless I'm sick or eat way to much of something weird.
