can you take a dump anywhere?

i know some that need "hometurf" to "go".

i work a quarter mile underground. i ate leftover pancakesfor breakfast, and had a cup of coffee (black) after laying off the stuff for a few days...oh-o. no way i make it to my truck, down the hill. the closest facility was a blue outhouse that looked like it was taken straight from a mexican bran muffin factory tour for americans. my GOD! i contemplated taking the portable eye wash station in for an improv butt wash...

this was worst than any third world toilet, that i have encountered.

sorry for the lowbrow topic, i am bored. hahhahahah

Way back in my construction days, an empty drywall compound bucket was my best friend.

I can go anywhere. and to quote George Carlin:" You dont take a crap you leave a crap!"

Anywhere?

I haven't tried everywhere, so I suppose I will never know.

Public restrooms don't bother me. Porta-potties don't bother me (except when it's hot out--they are like ovens then). Hotel rooms don't bother me.

The gutter on a busy street? Probably not. I did see a guy stop and drop trow on Poidras in Nawlins once a few years ago.

Took one of these on my last camping trip out in the woods of Alabama (no Deliverance jokes). I was made fun of by just about everyone there at the beginning....by the end of the trip I was the frickin hero.

Out behind the hangar with some old shop rags without metal shavings. The sphincter just taint what it used to be. Turn 9, the dog leg at Grattan sometimes has the same effect.

I thought this was a joke when I first saw it. Sent it to Jay Leno for his show on crazy ads.

But it is true. Introducing the latest 'Gotta Have' for your SUV. The Bumper Dumper.




P.S. It's available in Camo. Someone needs to explain that to me.

I used to just dig a trench when backpacking...

My first year of summer camp in boyscouts as a kid I refused to use the kybo (glorified deep hole in the ground) more because of all of the bugs crawling around the thing. By Thursday of my first week, nature was pressing its needs and I was faced with the decision of either getting over my fears or finding some other alternative. Well, the camp was busy so finding a quiet spot was just about impossible, so I gave in and used the kybo. At least it had walls and stalls (without doors). When I went to Philmont a few years later, the kybos were literally a box sitting out in the woods that had two toilet seats on them--back-to-back. We used to call them "copilot to bombadier" kybos.

edit - Fing beat me to it.

This is what you need.

I ran into a few places in China so bad, I had to hold it for a while. The one countryside outhouse I did have to break down and use at least had handlebars to hold onto while I squatted.

I am a Land Surveyor, I keep a roll in the truck, and I have placed many fertilizer treatments into the woods. I would throw a roll on my shovel handle and head into the brush.

To be honest, its probably the most relaxing place to take a nice dump.

Working on construction sites was different and those pot o potties are just nasty. I try to time my movements to happen either at home or at the office. I am pretty good at holding off a prairie dog.

I'll do pretty much anything to avoid using a public toilet. If it's unavoidable i can, but I'd rather not.

When I was a little kid and went to camp in the summer for a week, I didn't take a dump till I got home. Broke the habit when I went to camp that was a month long.

On the job we call them "honey buckets". 5 gallon bucket with a plastic bag in it. Cleaner than the outhouse usually.

Hoo boy do I understand that! About my 3rd or 4th day in Beijing, some of the dog or cat we ate wasn't agreeing with my stomach too well and it was becoming urgent. I found a public toilet in a market, paid my 5 yuan or whatever it was and went inside. A room about 10x10 with a few holes in the floor and a stench like the dead. Literally, one man pissing over another man who was squatting. I turned around and left - I knew I just couldn't do it without vomiting. Walked about 2 blocks, came upon a really nice 5-star hotel, air conditioning, marble washrooms, the works. I left them a really nice present to say thanks!

In Boy Scouts, buddy dropped his brand new knife in the dugout latrine.
He fished it out.
That was the year we started the forest fire.
