Double M's Life Rules #17: Never Pass Up a Free Opportunity to Pee

Posted by Double M



If someone is going to pee and you haven't taken the opportunity to relieve yourself in the near past, do it now.

When you're road tripping, it sucks to travel with the type of person that has to stop and pee every hour. Unfortunately, there isn't much that person can do - they have a small bladder and need to hit the bathroom.

What sucks worse than that person? The person that says "No, I don't need to pee" but suddenly needs to pee 15 minutes later. That person consciously evaluated their body, decided they were cool, and then probably experienced some form of immediate regret as the car pulled back onto the highway. This person sucks.

Of course, this scenario applies outside of cars as well. For instance, in Vegas if someone stops to pee, everyone should stop and pee. Invariably, that one guy that decides not to pee ends up slowing the whole group down 10 minutes later just as they are rolling again.

The good news is there is a simple way to avoid this: don't pass up a free opportunity to hit the bathroom. If someone is going and you haven't gone recently, walk in the bathroom and try to squeeze out a few drops - you'll be surprised at how much you actually pee and you'll prevent yourself from being the db that passed up on the free opportunity.
