The most powerful body part

All of the organs are deciding who should be in charge:

“I should be in charge,” said the brain, “I run all the body’s systems, without me nothing would happen”.

“I should be in charge,” said the heart, “I circulate oxygen and nutrients all over”.

“No! I should be in charge,” said the stomach, “I process the food that gives us energy”.

“I should be in charge,” said the legs, “without me the body couldn’t go anywhere”.

“I should be in charge,” said the eyes, “I allow the body to see where it goes.”

“I should be in charge,” said the anus, “I am responsible for waste removal”.

All of the other body parts laughed at the anus and insulted him. So he shut down. Within a few days, the brain had a terrible headache, the stomach was bloated, the legs got wobbly, the eyes got watery, and the heart pumped toxic blood.

They all decided that the anus should be the boss.

What is the moral of the story? Even though everybody else does all of the work the a**hole is usually in charge.
