NOT HAVING BEEN FIRED YET TODAY...

...it's time to throw caution to the winds and blog this item, which may have been blogged before.

(Via Gamernode; thanks to Rob White)

Comments

I WOULD NOT, under any circumstances, want to clean THAT bathroom!

I thought this sounded cool so I just tried it on my Playstation.

Which now apparently no longer works. And smells bad.

Thanks, Judi....

Clark, you sound peeved.

Yeah, pretty much....

Maybe I should have watched the video first.

"...[E]nabling users to play while they pee."

Umm.........

My "Need for Speed" is acting a little sluggish now....

My "Need for Speed" is acting a little sluggish now....

Visa Versa???

Drink Driving???

I'm thinkin' that whomever typed this "description" wuz a couple of drinks over the limit for safe spelling and usage ... merely sayin' ...

Speaking of sluggish, someone must have peed on the bot today too....

My only consolation is reading about the people stuck on a US Airways plane in Philadelphia for six hours with no AC, an overflowing toilet and _ horror of horrors _ no drinks on the plane.

Suddenly, my problems seem kind of trivial.

Ewww, Clark, that's awful. Calling Samuel Jackson!

OtheU - I do know the term "drink driving" is used in Britain in the same fashion we use "drunk driving." That one's not a typo.

Apparamently I'm too pished to blog.

How many peckers would I be touching if I touched the game control? EWWWWWWW.

"touch screen to start"

Not on your life.

*feels need for shower & brain bleaching*

This idea reeks!

Oh - and my sister (of uncontrollable sphincter fame), got stuck in one of Boston's streetside pay toilets. The kind that hose themselves off when you're done.

Unless you don't get out.

Cause you're stupid.


But on the upside - those things are NOT soundproof - so everyone can hear you scream.

How are the women supposed to play??

Oh! And you'll be glad to know that the City of Boston assures us that it is impossible to get stuck in there.

Siouxie - Not sure how we'd play...but we better bring our own penicillin.

Do we squat to the left or right??

It does say they "Try to encourage people..."

We're people. We get drunk. We pee.

Where's EL?? I demand equal peeing while playing rights!

I think we'd remember if you blogged the urine stream (not AGNFARB), judi, so relax.

Punkin, and bleach.

*gets caution all over self*
*AGAIN reminds self not to stand downwind from Judi*

OK, Dd ... if you say so ... it still doesn't make the article more readable, however, so if they're gonna export the story, they should put it in the language of the country to which it is going ... merely ... picky ... and ... Visa Versa is NOT correct, fer shure, becuz that's a Latin term, and the British (or nobuddy) can't change that merely becuz they think they may, based on their own, silly excuses ...

I think this requires Microsoft Pissta TM (possible TM thingy)

Clearly the blogals have never had fun with the urinal cake holders/propellers. Good times....

They can call it the "Wii-Wii", and on the plus side, the player runs no risk of throwing his "control" through the screen.

Christobol! How have you been?

Hey Jeff. Been good. Busy, but good. How's by you? I see Dave and Judi continue to benevolently rule the universe.

Dave: "Judi, what are you still doing here? You're fired."

Judi: "It's about time. Was it the pee screen thingy?"

Dave: "No. It was earlier today, or last year, or something."

Judi: "Damn. Did I do any work after the firing?"

Dave: "I don't think so."

Judi: "Whew."

Dave: "See ya tomorrow."

Judi: "Okay."

Do they have this for the Wii?

Back after a LONG absense.

The key quote for me was:
"Make your toilet interactive."

Ummm.
My toilet don't need to be interactive.
What's it gonna do for me, wipe my bum?
Jiggle my....
Nevermind.
And I really don't need anyone talking to me whilst I make chocolate water.
So, I say THIS IS A BAD IDEA!
And leave it at that.

Christo*snork*!

How soon before bars start having p!ssing contests? It could replace team trivia night. Or not.

fivver, I thought guys in bars were always having p!ssing contests.

...title for the game: Grand Theft Blotto.

Wow, upon further reading, this is a really bad idea.
However, the "Wii, Wii" comment was quite nice.
8>

I think I've finally stopped snorking at Punkin's sister....maybe.

*SNORK*

Nope.

I'd be worried that the drunk standing next to me would, um, 'swerve wildly' in my direction.

*Thinks of the term "stick shift" in a whole new way*

if you can't pee on the drunk you love
pee on the drunk you're with

do-do-doo-doo-do-do-do-doo

oh, wait, only pee.

*snork* @ insom and cbol

Great to see you around cbol. Seems like today is old timers day. Hooray!!!

Talk about one of your whiz-bang ideas...

Will this finally give police something to go on?

I will bet you all a million dollars that a guy invented that.

I thought it was odd that a bar that I attended regularly a few years back had the days comics and sports sections in glass cases over the urinals. That was a good idea, video games just sound like an invitation to cleaning crew nightmares.

Siouxie, you can play if you want to!

*Continues snorking at group*

Thanks guys!! I needed a good laugh today!

Oh, man! I just checked. All of Wender J. Crinklebanks' stuff is gone. Dang! I was looking forward to more Big City/Nebraska transplant humor!

Clean? Have you folks ever been in a well planned men's room? Sprinklers and floor drains! (watch out for the spray wax)

Scott.....look how HAPPY those girls are! It must be a wonderful product.

Scott, Jazzzz, I do not want to use any product that fits up against my girlie parts and uses the term "cutting edge" in its advertising.

dd.............eeewwwwwwwww

Jazzzz....exactly!!

Had a thought, that "thing" looked just like an oil funnel that was flattened partway at the open end and had the neck bent.

Jeez. That's really disturbing.
Had to write it down.

I'd hate to be the janitor for that bathroom, having to deal with the results of oversteering.

Perhaps Siouxie would be more comfortable with an executive title -
Introducing the Freshette Director.

Stand well away from the guy that says, "Hey y'all, watch this."

OT\

Jazzzz, the Jags are playing the Dolphins @ 7:30 EDT tomorrow evening. I can't get it here, because infomercials and British comedy reruns are better programming than two Florida teams. Myself, I will need a cooking project in the backyard and listen to it on internet radio. Jones is questionable, with a hammy.

End OT/

Holy Crap! Football talk. Ok, so who is going to QB all 3 of the Florida teams this year. Jacksonville, Miami and Tampa all have questions at that position this year?

Hey, Rick - I'm back up, if you're up for yakkin'!

"...[E]nabling users to play while they pee..."

Like we men need more help in marking our territory...

...and I'm printing off a copy of this article. I'm going to show it to my mom and dad and tell them "Remember all the grief you gave me when I was a kid, and I'd take a really good book into the bathroom with me, and you thought I was spending way too much time in there? Well, today's youth have more options, and weren't you lucky?"

*SNORK* Wes. We're all bathroom readers in my family. Our families should KNOW how lucky they were!

Miami should be an easy call with Brady Quinn. If they play Quinn the first quarter, tomorrow evening, then pull him, that will tell you they think he's number one.

Tonight, Garcia did OK for the Bucs and Gradkowski did OK. They won 13-10 against New England, but honestly I didn't see solid play from either.

Byron Leftwich will take the first 15 snaps for the Jags and he has been stunning in practice. David Garrard will take the next 15 to 20. Honest truth, as good as Leftwich looks, Garrard has never looked this good and has been razor sharp. Byron is the starter. The vast improvements in both Leftwich and Garrard are probably, mostly, the work of the new quarterback's coach, Mike Shula. They have both developed a new solidity in the pocket and a confident, accurate pass. They no longer hop about and try to make things happen like yardball... they look like pro quarterbacks. They always had the arms. Leftwich still has the cannon and is one of the few guys in the league that can hit a guy in stride at 70 yards. Garrard is also big and powerful, and getting better on the short passes, but he's not Byron.

I finally get home and everyone is blogged out and pissed. Oh well, the last table wouldn't leave but left me a c note to top off my evening. Can't complain.

Sorry, I missed all the gaming. Hope everyone washed their hands first. *EG*

Hi Med. You still up? Sounds like a nice end to a long day. I had a good day, too. Les and I hauled 70 cubic yards of cr... stuff to the dump out of our garage!

Wow, Scott.... where did you move the shtuff to? And isn't it great to park a car inside the garage?

My garage is full of a project..... a 69 Datsun 1600 roadster convertible that I long to restore and drive, soon. I just need to win the lottery. Or find a rich bf..... not.

Oooh! I had a friend (long ago) that drove a 1600 convertible (the one with the short windshield). We haven't got the cars in, yet. There's still stuff to sort out and get rid of but the bulk of the junk is gone.

We took it to the city landfill. Actually, the second load is still in the van. We missed getting in at the end of the day by about a minute. Dang!

This one has been in my family since the early 70's and is the car my father taught me to drive in..... so I have a ridiculously sentimental attachment. It has to be ready in the next 24 months, though, so I can teach my son to drive in it.

Oh, my aching clutch.

My friend (this was, as I said, long ago - we were in our early 20's) drove his for several months with brakes that barely worked. He played his clutch like a madman to slow down. He also push-started it occasionally just by sticking his foot out the door and giving the car a nudge. He had a heck of a lot of fun in that car or at least as much fun as one can have in a car without a back seat!

He also helped my girlfriend fix up her 510.

The car has been inside the garage for the last 20 years, and the body is pristine. My lil' sis cracked the block. I have a new long block and a gigantic puzzle to piece back together.... I just need to find someone with some technical expertise.

Only 3500 1600s were sold in 69. It is technically a 68 1/2. But who cares..... it is a rare, totally rad, hot little baby. And I can't wait to drive it again.

Sounds like fun! Good night, Med. I've got another long day of sorting, hauling and trash triage tomorrow.

You took the words out of my mouth.... not so much the trash, but I have sufficiently wound down to achieve sleep. And we have another ballbuster on the books for tomorrow night. It is so much fun to go to work and show people a great time with extraordinary food and wine.

Sweet dreams. And God Bless Us All....... (kudos to Tiny Tim).

I can see it now.... Guys having another round delivered to the men's room as they attempt to better their scores.... Fights breaking out because some d!ck jerk fool won't leave the urinal.... Guys wetting their car seats on the way home because they forgot the game was over......

*stumbles in*

I was AWOL yesterday due to horrible oral surgery in the morning, then spent the rest of the day drugged up trying to recover.

Today I'm just worse trying to get by.

FIRST, Scott we do not want to pee standing up.
Siouxie, there is definitely a lawsuit here. There's an Equal Protection arguement and as soon as I get off the Vicodin recover I'm sure I'll be able to think of it. :)

*looks around for vicodin coffee*

*pours El a cup of Oxycontin Columbian Coffe*

*what the heck - pours self one as well*

Good morning, El. Yeah, I know. Adam really blew the multiple-O deal.

I hope you feel better, soon.

Meanie, I had a friend in college (long time ago) who, driving back home after school ended one year, let himself get too tired. He finally realized that he'd better pull over and rest when he caught himself thinking, "well, if I crash, I'll just put another quarter in and keep going." We'd been playing a night driving game in an arcade a lot that year.

Heck, Punkin. Pour her an Oxytocin Kenyan blend and she'll be *real* happy!

El..... Don't over-do ;-)

judi - it's a good day when you haven't been fired yet.

El - sorry you're suffering. Feel better soon.

(sips coffee)

I don't quite get the attraction of TV screens over urinals since I don't stand up to pee. And I'll stop there before I say too much.

Anybody know how to get nail polish off of maple tree bark?

Punkin'......I don't think I want to know.

Feel better El! Take a pain pill, that's what they are there for. Find a good book, lie down and rest. I feel for ya!


Hey there Jazzzzie, the best looking radiologist I know! Hope you have a good weekend!

5 yr old decided to "paint" the tree.

I think I heard the tree cry.

Punkin - Sister, you come up with the friggin' BEST crap on this blog, usually apropos of nothing!!! I'll bet you get more bona fide snorks and Danny Thomas Spit-Takes™ than anyone else here.

Answer: Peel the bark.

Scott, no peeing standing up for moi..thankuverymucho!

El - I hope you feel better soon!!! You'll be smiling with those good meds, I'm sure. *smooooch*

casey - ditto for you my friend! Hope you get better real soon and enjoy the meds. *smooooch to ya* (got your email...yikes)


Punkin - nail polish remover?? duh ;-)

Jazzzzzzzzie!!! mornin mornin mornin'


El - I hope life improves. Oral surgery (NO jokes, please!) is not fun. I seriously hope I never have to have any, but my sympathies and prayers of healing for you.

case - you know I'm already prayin' for you.

El - just emailed some Yankee cheer to you - hope you feel better soon. btw - Vicod!n never did it for me so I never understood people who loved that stuff. Soft serve ice cream, or a milkshake - THAT'll kill that dental pain.

Thanks, everyone. I'm on my second vicodin of the day, not helping all that much.
But the Oxycontin coffee was great!

The only thing that made me feel better yesterday was that the Yankees beat Cleveland! And A-Rod hit 501 - yay!

p.s. I have stitches - ick.

Ok, then - rule #2,039 - do NOT make El laugh today - she'll hurt her stitches.

*makes mental note to NOT tickle El*


casey....Anesthesia, not X-Ray. Though I know some nice Radiologists. And thanks for the sweet words.......

Hey Siouxie....I wasn't ignoring, just missed it. and all the other beautiful bloglets, and marginal blog guys. Face it fellers, unlike most species, human males are not the prettier of the sexes. (thank goodnss)

OOops, Jazzie I knew that, my mind is altered this morning, sorry.

OtheU:
As DD said, 'drink driving' is the standard term here in the UK for DUI. You probably already knew that 'pissed' means very drunk, and 'visa versa' was just a mistake, probably down to the fact that very few people know Latin these days. They're Germans writing in English, after all - they didn't do too badly on the whole. Cut 'em some slack, man.

*removes DD's lips from my butt*

Thanks, DD! But, I think there are just too many major snork inducers on the blog to pick a winner!

*just happy to be nominated*

*SLACK*

OK, martinn? (Yeah, I know ... like I never had a typo ... uh-huh ... merely havin' fun @ the expense of them whut can't defend their ownselfs ... )
