History Main / NobodyPoops

You know that children's book, ''Everyone Poops''? Well, they lied. Not everyone does.

* The theme song for ''Series/{{Shameless}}'' takes place in the bathroom, [[InvertedTrope looking at the toilet the whole time]], including characters using it.

* Averted in ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed''. Mei's giant red panda form is properly seen by someone for the first time right after Stacy Frick exits a bathroom stall and a flushing sound can be heard.

* ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' [[HandWave explains this]] by stating that monster food, being made of magic, is digested completely, leaving nothing to... come out the other end. A monster in Grillby's talks about human food being "gross" for passing all the way through the body, [[BileFascination and expresses interest in trying some]]. This doesn't stop Papyrus and Alphys from [[INeedToGoIronMyDog getting out of awkward situations by claiming they need to use the bathroom]].

* during one of the early issues of ''ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogArchieComics'' Sonic says that bad Chili Dogs "Go straight to my gut" in the Knuckles Spinoff It is implied that a kid that Knuckles is Babysitting needs a [[TheDiaperChange Diaper Change]]. and in the Sonic universe Spinoff Bean the Dynamite does a PottyDance

* The [=AU=] ''{{Series/CSI}}'' fic [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3875819/1/H5N1 H5N1]]” takes place after an apocalyptic ThePlague situation. There’s a mention of Grissom and Sara having to make an improvised bucket commode since they lack running water in their cabin. Grissom also pees outside the house when coyotes become a problem. He’s hoping they’ll be deterred by smelling the pee of another male animal, a potential larger predator than them.

* The player character can poop in ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingNewHorizons'' to get rid of excess food energy that’s used to break rocks and move trees. Naturally, there’s no nudity involved, the character just sits on the toilet and then gets a message that says “And that takes care of that”

Sometimes, of course, it ''is'' crucial to the story, and this trope is averted. Maybe there's a PottyEmergency; maybe someone [[BathroomBreakout uses a bathroom break to escape custody]]; maybe someone suffers an UndignifiedDeath by being [[CampingACrapper killed on the toilet]] -- or worse, [[TheCanKickedHim killed ]]''[[TheCanKickedHim with ]]''[[TheCanKickedHim a toilet]]; or maybe there's just some good old-fashioned ToiletHumour. Maybe it ''isn't'' crucial to the story [[NarrativeFiligree but is included anyway]].

->''"Well, I feel that films -- the film industry -- has increasingly failed to reflect reality as people live it. No-one goes for a piss in ''Franchise/StarWars'', you can watch the whole of ''Film/{{Ghostbusters|1984}}'' and no-one brushes their teeth, and in ''Film/LostInTranslation'', nothing happens at all."''

* In ''VideoGame/PoliceQuest'' you can walk into the offscreen bathroom in the coffee shop and the hotel room and use it. The police station has a toilet, but it is always occupied by someone "[[UnusualEuphemism giving birth to a sergeant]]".
