By definition, doesn’t everyone poop their pants “after holding in their stool as long as they can”?

No, everyone holds their bowels for just as long as they need to in order to get to a toilet without shitting themselves.

How long a person could hold their bowels is another story.

Check out “The Mule” it’s a movie about an Australian guy who smuggled drugs and they kept him in a hotel until he pooped them out.

The way you wrote this makes it sound like this scene is the main part of the movie. Like the whole movie is just this guy in a hotel while people wait around for him to poop out drugs.

I am writing this as a one-act stage play now. Thanks for the ideas.

Please write a monolog where the person discusses the irony of others ingesting something he just pooped out

That is the large portion of the movie, it's disgusting and thrilling.

Look, Australian cinema isn't exactly high-budget...

Luckily they shot it more than once.
The first take was left on the cutting room floor.
The theatrical release was “take number two”.

I think what you mean to say is that the whole movie is just this guy in a hotel room until he develops the condition widely known as encopresis

I think the “as long as they can” part isn’t necessarily true.

Some people receive the ol’ signal and go to the porcelain throne straight away.

He didn’t say that everyone holds stuff in as long as they can. Just that when the outcome is pooping your pants, the holding of your bowels preceding that is always as long as you can.

I think you both mistook the statement.

  1. Hold your bowels as long as possible
  2. Poop happens next.

As someone who has a todler at home, and who works with developmentally disabled adults, this is definitely not true for all individuals.

No, there’s a difference between releasing when you sit down, and “holding it in as long as you can”

When you sit down isn’t necessarily as long as you can hold it; you could probably hold it in longer.

Taking a shit is just taking a shit, but holding it in as long as you can implies there’s a certain kind of um… emergency.

InappropriateTA t1_iwmj6r5 wrote

Right, what the guy above is saying I took to mean that people who are in an emergency situation where they have to hold it in and then end up pooping their pants, have held it in as long as they could.

Cuillin t1_iwmlx9v wrote

But that’s not what they said. They suggested ALL BM’s are the result of holding it in as long as you can

I’m not reading it that way. The qualifier about pooping pants is important.

I had a dodgy belly one time, didn't feel like I needed to poop right at that moment, certainly wasn't holding it in or anything - but I casually coughed and sharted my pants there and then.

It isn't just pooping your pants once after holding it in. It is loss of bowel control for a longer period after the passage of the bowel impaction caused by holding it in for as long as possible.

Sometimes they just take a chance on a dodgy fart
