To Poo or Not to Poo: That is the question

This next blog is not for the squeamish at heart, you be forewarned and skip this day if you are one of these people.

To poo or not to poo that is the question:
Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer .... or to take arms against a sea of trouble

I was out with a friend the other day just doing the mall rat thing when i had to poo.
It was no big deal, I don't have a problem with going to the bathroom at public places. I know some people hate it but its probably because of people like me. Its not like I poo or pee all over the place, I just don't mind. If you got to go you got to go, sounds simple enough right?

It's not that simple ... i was in a store( i won't mention which one or what it sells) when i had to go poo. I politely excused myself from my friend and said i would be back in a bit, i had to go to the bathroom.

WhenI walked into the bathroom I saw a sign on the bathroom stall saying "out of order". Now this was a problem, I had to poo and I didn't want to poo my pants. I was holding it in for a while now and I there wasn't a bathroom any where near us.
Now what would you do in this situation?

a) poo your pants and just continue on with the day or ...
b) just poo in the out of order toilet?

Some of you are thinking this is so gross but it happens, I think the majority of the people reading this is thinking in their minds I would rather just poo in the toilet and not walk around with a pooey bum. So this is what I did.

I feel bad for the store, and the person responsible for the clean up but i had no other choice. It's not like i would do anything like that on purpose but i had to weight the situation, circumstances, and the outcome of the day.

That being said my deepest apologies to the store and I will do my best not to put myself in situation again, once again I am sorry. But I think any sane person would have done the same thing as me. Even though my wife totally disagrees.

Great story about one of life's fundamental questions. Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do-do. If you think about it, it is their fault that the toilet is out of order so that should teach them to get things fixed faster next time.

Hilarious blog, keep it up!

i would choose
c) try to hold it in a bit longer while looking for another available "facility."

but if that isn't an option, then i'd have to agree with you. pooing in my pants will never be a voluntary option.
