29. Tie-In: Reference the intro
On our annual family road trip to Utah, I found myself in a very compromising predicament… I had to poop. We drove several miles before coming upon a gas station where my father gave me two options: go here or hold it. The only problem is that going in a gas station means taking that awkward walk of shame to the restroom where everyone knows exactly what you’re doing. I actually tried to avoid pooping because I was scared of what others would think of me! As with most problems in life, I turned to Frozen for sage advice, specifically Elsa’s anthem “Let it go, let it go, can’t hold it back anymore. Let it go, let it go, turn away and slam the door.”
This negative attitude towards poo can best be flushed away by talking about it and becoming more educated on the importance of taking the browns to the super bowl. Although using the facilities in a gas station can often be uncomfortable, I had to get over. Poop with pride because it is a sign that your gut is healthy! At some point we must face the facts: everyone poops so just let it go.
