Well, I told the "poop in the sink" story to my kids. They thought it was gross, but funny too. And were also kinda horrified that there were other toilets in the house but the culprit chose the sink anyhow!

They assured me that they've never thought of doing anything like that -- but then one of them fessed up to once peeing in the cats' litter box when the bathroom was occupied for too long! Yikes!

She assured me that she covered it up like a good kitty!

This let me laugh at all of the things I did as a kid, hid from my mom and then later in life let her know. Somehow, they all seemed to be funny 25 -40 years later and would not have been funny when I did them.

You have to put your feet up on the seat and push your hindparts forward and low in order to make your intestines (or the important part, I guess) vertical and wrap your arms around your legs. In my Taoist book of living they have illustrations, even! Also plans for making a toilet platform to stand on instead of the seat.

I think it's actually preferable to cop a squat over a hole in the dirt, but they begrudgingly give adaptions for those who don't want to part with their indoor plumbing.

On a somewhat related note: Sam hates (hated), what she gave the term, "Squatty Potties" She avoided them at all costs. I don't know if she was worried about falling in, or what. I thought it was funny that they glorified that 'hole' in the dirt by putting porcelain on it. It still looked like a hole to me. LOL

If this thread can be hijacked to include other childhood horror stories, then I'll share.

I was around 7 or 8 years old when my mom came home from grocery shopping with a box of frozen brussel sprouts. Under no circumstances did I want to eat those green nightmares. I hid them inside an old lunch box in the garage. It took about a week or so, but the thawing process and odor finally revealed my "good" deed.

Now that's genius. Why did I never think of that? I always had to try and find ways of coaxing the dog to eat my veggies, or otherwise disposing of them from the dinner table.

I used to hide mine in my napkin, then flush them down the toilet.

There is also a Tao way to go to the bathroom. You have to put your feet up on the seat and push your hindparts forward and low in order to make your intestines (or the important part, I guess)

When I was stationed in the Philippines and Japan, many natives would use the facilities while facing the wall. But, that was 40 years ago. Also, at that time, most restrooms were unisex.
