On the other hand...
Have you ever really thought about what a marvellous thing the human body is? You shove all kinds of stuff in at one end and without being asked, the body processes it with the help of chemicals produced in-house and the assistance of friendly bacteria conveniently lodged in your gut to keep you fit and well and, without troubling you so that you can think about art and love and sex and things.

If you are unlucky and accidentally eat a poisoned shellfish, then the body detects this and takes precipitous action to clear the offending article out with all due haste and expediency. If you are so ungrateful as to poison yourself with, say, excessive amounts of alcohol, it will give you a bit of lee-way before drawing the line and emptying the system again to save you from yourself. It will do its best to metabolise the booze as quickly as possible, and makes sure you lie still and don't eat or drink anything else while it deals with the mess you've caused.

Most of the time it'll not bother you or even let you know that it's hard at work, once it's finished it's job, it'll tell you it's time to dump the waste, which it has thoughtfully packaged into a compact turd or suitably dilute liquid.

ALL HAIL THE BODY.
