We All Poop, Get Over It

Why is something we do everyday something we don't want to talk about?

Every human being poops. Sometimes people poop every other day, and some people poop two or more times in the same day. Why are so many people uncomfortable to talk about it? Just mentioning this natural phenomenon make people feel uneasy. WHY?

I know one person who refused to even say the word, "poop." She also did not say the word, "sh*t," because it is a "bad" word. I understand that people like to have clean language, but for goodness sake... If she needed to convey she needed to poop she would say, "I need to go number two." Really? Is there something dangerous about this word that she refused to say it?

I also know a lot of people refuse, or try their hardest to not poop in public. So what? There are public bathrooms there for a reason should you need to go! Take care of business with no shame!

I do feel as though products such as Poo-Pourri make going to the bathroom in public harder for people who are self conscious. While the main purpose is to eliminate the unflattering smells of pooping, you shouldn't have to feel like you need to hide what you are doing.

Their product pushes the idea that the smell will never escape the toilet, so it was like you never pooped at all. The product is small enough to fit into a purse or a large pants pocket, and you can sneak it into the bathroom with you. You can attempt to hide it from the world by using this product. Who cares?

Embrace your natural bodily function, and don't feel ashamed to poop, or talk about pooping.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
