also, and the worst is when you actually have the dump-destination in sight....it's like your body has no depth perception and thinks it's time to go right then and there.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is fantastic.

No doubt about it. That physiological response is strong. Even when you're seemingly in control and have entered the restroom in your own house...the clock in your brain has it perfectly timed. But if you end up struggling with your belt, or the button or your slacks, or your zipper for a few extra seconds...the results can be disasterous.

I wasn't a part of this, and it's not as funny as the original story, but here goes...

Back in high school, our band took a trip to London. We hopped a plane from Austin to Dallas and then caught our international flight overseas. Three buds and I were sitting in the middle section at the front of coach, and we had restrooms about five feet to either side of us.

Somewhere over the Atlantic, in the middle of the night, one of the toilets flushes. Then it flushes again. And again. After a couple of minutes, this guy with a horrified look on his face comes out and quickly goes back to his seat, with the commode still flushing. That by itself was funny to see.

What followed next was a 30 minute parade of flight attendants with pitchers of water, pouring water down the can with hopes that it would somehow stop the flushing. It didn't. The captain even came down and looked at it for a few minutes before finally locking the restroom.

The flushing continued for another 2 hours or so, and I had just gotten adjusted to the din and was falling asleep when it suddenly stopped. I would've gone back to sleep, but dawn was breaking and we were about 20 minutes away from landing at Heathrow.

Lubbock International Airport

11 flushes in 2 minutes

T&P for my damp angry posterior

still funny

I've noticed they are starting to change out a lot of the automatic flushers on the toilets and leaving them on the urinals, probably because of this. I usually just put a cap or some toilet paper or something over the sensor.

Damn Jeerdy, a quad post.

Crappy subject. Still a funny read.
