There are three things that should never be shown in media because it's completely unnecessary and all three can be directly implied without showing any real detail of them.

These three things are: Sex, vomiting, going to the bathroom.

All three of these can be relayed to the viewer without actually showing them but it seems like they're shown all the time and it's infuriating.

You can't take away my poop scenes

I'm sure there's some real person out there who would argue that a particular shitting scene is necessary because it shows the authors mindset on the constipation of the world in the sense of some kind of moral ambiguity or some bs like that

Pulp fiction had a great poop scene.

Edit: and the latest Paw Patrol had a fantastic poop joke which really made the scene tie together.

And don't forget the great toilet scene in Trainwatching!

I was meaning more like showing the actual poop

Poop jokes can be hilarious. But I don't need to see the actual poop.

Rick & Morty: The old man and the seat, had a great poop scene which also showed lots of poop.

It’s all in the execution.
