I have to pee, but I can't
because someone left the bathroom door shut and the heat vent closed, and the toilet seat is about 18 degrees F, and I'm a lousy squatter.

Help!



:rofl:

1. Plug in the hair dryer
and blow the seat warm. It works, I promise! :thumbsup:

12. I also use the hair dryer to heat up the bed before I get in.
It's great to do in the winter especially if you don't have an electric blanket. :)

3. Just imagine what our foremothers went through using outhouses...
cold wooden seats, bad smells, Sears catalogs for TP (if they were lucky)...

Things could be worse. Just saying. :7

24. Maybe, but you're gonna look silly with a toilet seat frozen to your ass
We may get burned out of our homes, but we look glamorous doing it.

17. Yes it is!
There was snow on my deck this morning.
I wanted to cry.
I've lived in MN my whole life, and I NEVER get used to the cold.

22. Just think of all that water flowing over Niagra Falls.
MILLIONS and MILLIONS and MILLIONS of gallons of water a minute.


Drip Drip Drip Drip Drip Drip Drip.



Does that help you go?

25. You're a lousy squatter?
Did the anarcho-syndicalist collective kick you out after you insisted on decorating the building in Laura Ashley?
