Hey. Curious. You ever #2 on a commercial flight?

[David]

I’ve been to Thailand a few times in the last few years and it’s almost guaranteed you’ll need to on the long haul. All the more reason to upgrade if possible but I have to give it to the international crew for usually staying on top of the head cleanliness.

The harder one is on a long sailboat trip. Pooping on a hot boat while heeled over is a challenge!

I have once in 1.7 million miles of flying and it was on an international flight.

Never dropped anchor from 30,000 feet.

I travel a lot, and that has happened once! I try to avoid it like the plague.

I can go anywhere. It’s the cramp quarters. In a porta potty I can crack the door for the sense of space.

The worst thing about an airplane is everybody knows what you just did.

So that was you at the Mariah Carey outdoor lawn concert I saw this summer!


Two stories-
1.When I was about 6 years old, we went on steam train excusions using old 1920's passenger cars. I remember distinctly, toilets, which were simple holes in beneath the toilet lid directly to the tracks below. I think airlines should adopt this concept for fuel savings.

2. Personally, I can't stand portapotties. They really seal in the flavor in a bad way.
I immediately start dry heaving when locked in a ripe one in the summertime. The coolest porta potty I've been in had a drilled open floor for ventilation.

Stomach bugs and flying are not compatible. That was a long flight. I pack immodium every time now, car, plane, whatever.

I'm short, so the bathrooms are no big deal when things are normal.

Two stories.

One of our ex-presidents is said to have had a lifetime hatred for one of his political rivals and so, when traveling in AF1, instructed the pilots to let him know when they traveled over this individual's home state. His habit was to then visit the head and then have the pilot make a mid-air dump of the contents. Often told, might even be true.

When working construction during my college years in the 1970's, we would hire athletes from a local university for general labor, as a sort of make-work program for them to keep them occupied. One basketball player had a habit of hiding in a porta-potty to get out from doing any work. He spent so much time there that he'd occasionally take a nap. On one such occasion we barricaded the door, rigged it onto a hook from a mobile crane and left his ass high up in the air for an afternoon.

I’d walk out and let out loud “phew! Don’t go in there!”

Over a million air miles for work. I think a few times for #2 but taking a piss oh yeah every flight. I sit idle seats and once the light goes green I will take advantage of. I also took advantage of first class free drinks flying home after a long week so bladder was stressed out.

[A930Rocket]

I’ve dropped the kids off at the pool using a Porta Jon many times, being in construction. It sucks in the winter, but in the summer, you can prop the door open with your foot or something for ventilation. What I hate is, when a wasp or bee gets in there.

No one on the flight knows who I am, and I really don't care if someone thinks I did something that every living animal does.

I have had to pee in a few port-a-potties that were really bad. It makes me wonder what some people must eat. It is had to hold my breath long enough to pee.

In my 911, I have driven to 41 states and Canada. I have driven to California four times. Lots of road side stops. If my wife is with me it has to be a "nice" place. On my own, I will pick any rest stop.

No doubt the nicest state run rest stop was in northern California. It was a huge office building, that had lights the turned on as I walked down the hall. First class all the way. And with no contest at all the WORST is in southern California. It is a state operated rest stop, and it is a large gravel parking lot, in the middle of the interstate so traffic from both directions, and 4 porta potties, and line of people waiting to use them. It was over 100 degrees that day, and it was horrid. I almost decided to get back in my car and go to the next place, but I needed to pee really bad.

On the 15 hour flights to and from Korea, yes, I had no other choice!!! It was not a fun experience at all but I felt better afterwards and that was all that mattered to me at the time.

When you gotta go, you gotta go.
I've had some of my best dumps in an outhouse at a friend's cottage. It is in the forest with no door though.

I hadn't thought of it like a top ten list.

I am thankful for this thread. Now I have some juicy conversation topics for tonight's Thanksgiving feast!

For those of you that say "no" "nope" never" pray that you never develop Crohn's or colitis.

I was sitting in the back seat of a Cessna 182 and the front passenger seat was trying not to break apart a Styrofoam cooler with a #2. We laughed about it for years and add some embellishment.

[Cajundaddy]

Took care of that today on the flight home from Houston. Woke up at 3AM and this disturbed the natural rhythm. Two hours into the flight mother nature suggested a visit to the loo. Three minutes later the package was delivered, cleanup handled, and I was heading back to my seat. Easy as a summer breeze.

I am thankful for a very reliable constitution. My wife on the other hand is incapable of dropping a bomb at 30,000 ft. If somebody offered her ONE MILLION DOLLARS to crap in an airplane loo she would politely decline. Not happening... ever.

I CAN (and have), but I prefer to do it on my terms if at all possible.
