There are a couple of shows on
TLC (The Learning Channel) called "
A Wedding Story" and "
A Birth Story" or something quite similar to that. The basic
premise of these programs is the tracking of
the big event - watching a nervous
groom-to-be picking out the location of the rehearsal
dinner, observing a
pregnant woman having the
doctor explain an
ultrasound - until the
moment arrives: a big fluffy wedding or a big fluffy
birth.
I'm holding out for "
A Poop Story". A man is taped with
soothing music playing in the background, sleeping soundly. He
wakens abruptly, shambles into the bathroom and shuts the door. Maybe there is a 5
minute explanation of who he is and his
house, apartment, dorm room, whatever...
who he is and what he does with his life.
He emerges from the bathroom with his
hair sticking up, the fan audible in the bathroom, a
voiceover noting the smell of glade. He then goes on to recount the incident in detail. The
temperature of the toilet seat, the
floatation of the waste, and so on.
This would certainly
entertain me.
Poop does, for some reason.
