Talk about taking a mean one…
Common Sense, Funny, sad| March 12th, 2008So I was not going to post this evening, until this little gem popped up on my radar:
Sheriff: Woman sat on toilet for 2 years
Very reminiscent of an episode of Nip/Tuck. Basically this woman sat down on the toilet and decided not to get up. Her boyfriend lives with her and lived with her two years ago when she started. He finally decided recently to call for help. Apparently he tried to get her to leave the bathroom, by asking her to. When she refused he still brought her food and water.
The really sad part is: SHe had been sitting there for so long that her skin had grown arround the toilet seat. They had to remove the toilet seat so she could go to the hospital to have it removed. I am sorry, but if anyone is sitting on my toilet for more then 2 hrs, I am forcing them off. I will call the cops. I would do something. I would not continue to bring them food and water. I would stop bringing food and call 911. Actually I would have never started bringing them food in the first place.
Then I started thinking about unwanted houseguests. I had that problem once. I thought I had fixed it by changing the locks, only to find out they had been given a key a few weeks later. So far that is the only case of problem house guests. I am sure there will be more.
Question: How would you get someone of the toilet?

That is so totally gross and ridiculous. I can see not moving from being in front of a refrigerator but a toilet? I would send kids in there to ask them a million questions, poop and pee in their pants because they couldn’t use the potty and then have them whine incessantly about something stupid. Always gets me to go in the other direction.

This article bothered me tonight when I read it. How does someone live in your bathroom for two years? After a day he should have been calling someone to get this woman help. I would have called the police,fire and rescue departments until someone showed up.
Then there is the part of me that says you make your fire detector go off and yell FIRE. that just seems mean though.

How about a trail of skittles leading out of the bathroom?

motherwise -> Yes it is. But she apparently had a phobia about leaving the bathroom so what else was she to do? Get professional help is to obivous.
beeker -> Try watching the related episode of Nip/Tuck. In the episode a woman becomes fused to her couch. And it is very graphic even for cable TV. And yes the boyfriend certainly should have done something sooner. But he apparently has no spine and gives into her wishes.
Jason -> If that doesn’t work, then perhaps the trail of ants that followed the trail of skittles in would.
