Well, you asked for it. As food makes its way through the GI tract, the body secretes various enzymes and acids that help to break down the food into smaller and smaller bits so that the food can be absorbed in the intestines. By the time that the food gets to the small intestines, it is a soupy fluid that is chock full of enzymes. As the food travels through the intestinal tract, many things happen...the fluid and food particles are absorbed, the enzymes start to degrade, and what is left starts to firm up and form what we in the health care field call poop. Most of this process occurs in the large intestine and it usually takes between 12 and 24 hours for that Big Mac to complete the whole process of digestion from start to finish. When a person has diarrhea, the motility of the intestines is increased, meaning that the contents of the intestine are moved more quickly through the intestines. This means that the liquid poop in the small intestine with all the enzymes that are meant to digest the food that has been eaten is passed throught the intestines and out the rectum before the enzymes have had a chance to degrade. This is why diarrhea is liquid and the burning sensation is a result of the active enzymes acting on the sensitive tissue of the anus

No, it will squeeze out on the sides and run down your leg and maybe up your back. It will also stink and make a big mess in your pants.
