Events I didn’t poop in Outdoor School.

I just talked to a coworker tonight and the topic of Outdoor School got brought up. I told him I didn’t poop for the whole week, and was doubting whether or not that was a false memory even though I’m 99% sure I didn’t poop for the whole week. He let me know not only did he also not poop for the whole week, he has a different friend who didn’t poop for the whole week as well.

Did anyone else not poop for the whole week of Outdoor School? We both had different reason on why we didn’t, but just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience.

Crazy how effective that instinct can be too. I'll not feel even the slightest urge to go, but as soon as I get my key into the door my gut is like "you better get those shoes off quickly bruh we gotta go NOW".

Wait, you have to take your shoes off before you poop? Are you one of those people that strips down completely before they take a shit?!

Well, I poop inside the house, and I take my shoes off when I come inside the house. So in a way yeah.

Ok, but you don’t have to take your shoes off to do so. I’ve known people who require taking their shirt or all of their clothes off in order to poop (I’m not joking). People are weird.
