self defecation

Self defecation is the act of being able to make fun and/or light of yourself in an effort toward 'humanizing' yourself. Actually that is the definition of 'self deprecation' however self defecation is self deprecation BUT to the 'Nth' degree. To further explain, the antonym of being self deprecative would be 'pompous' while the antonym of being self defecative would be that of a 'complete pompous ass'.
He was trying too hard to fit in by using some self defecation humour and ended up making himself not only the butt of his own jokes, but everyone else's as well. What a complete ass, he sure went overboard.

desecration by deskfecation

Similar to deskfecation, but a modification that entails shitting in the top drawer of a coworker’s desk with seniority.
Our boss said he’d been going over security footage but can't discern who pulled off the desecration by deskfecation because no cameras were in his office. Basically without a smoking turd it's a cold case now.

synchro-defecation cycle

The synchro-defecation theory holds that the defecation patterns of individuals who live together tend to become synchronized over time. The phenomenon is glaringly evident when said individuals share one bathroom.

Similar to the McClintock effect, the theory that the menstrual cycles of women who live together, such as in homes, prisons, convents, bordellos, dormitories, or barracks, tend to become synchronized over time.
Man: "I had to shit in the tub this morning 'cause my girl got to the toilet first. "

Friend: "Damn, that synchro-defecation cycle is a bitch, ain't it?"
