How'd the BF go to the bathroom???

~Crawn
 
Two years seems completely unbelievable. Couldn't this just be a perfect example of poor journalism? Meaning, that she had been "using" the toilet for two years, and all of sudden got stuck on it this time? That would make much more sense than "sitting on" the toilet for two years and shows that the correct word is everything sometimes.

Are you suggesting that she only started "using" the toilet at age 33? :eek:
 
Wait..........WHAT??? 2 years!?! WHAT? ....... .................. ....... ........................ It's stories like these that make me wonder what the hell is wrong with todays society.... Besides, she must have been mentally ill to sit on a toilet for 2 years.
 
In some ways this could be really convenient. Just ker-plunk when you feel like it, no worries.

Aren't adult diapers a different means to the same end?

("End" may have been a poor choice of words...)

If it was just a simple news report or two line story, maybe. But could they really have misquoted the police department and hospital? I suppose they could have, but it seems unlikely...

No, I'm saying that she only started using this toilet seat two years ago, which would distinguish it from a case where this was her first time using the toilet seat and she got stuck. It would be much less of a freak accident if she got stuck the first time she used this specific seat, rather than having used it for two years and than got stuck.

And, yes, I am saying that the journalist either used a poor choice of words, misquoted the office, the editor missed a missing word, or the officer spoke vaguely by using the word "sitting" because only idiots would believe such a preposterous scenario of a woman sitting on the same toilet seat for two years straight with no break. Any of those things are more likely than what the article points to.
 
that's crazy. There really does have to be something wrong with her. She must have fallen into a really deep depression or some kind of catatonic state or something and just lost all touch. You've gotta feel bad for her.
 
Doesn't she have a job? Friends or families who wonder where she went?
She's going to have severe back pain when she gets older from sitting (probably crouching) on a toilet seat for two years.

I don't think the story is mis-worded, nor was it misinterpreted. You just can't accept that some people out there are just crazy. Why bother trying to make sense of this?

The skin of the lady grew over the seat. Her legs had worn away. Your legs don't wear down from lack of exercise. You'd have to be immobile for a LONG time for this to happen.

this is probably the least of her problems. my guess is her legs are useless at this point, not to mention whatever mental issues she has.
 
I think the question should be: "Who would allow that?" :confused:

it took him two years to decide something was wrong. obviously they both have some mental issues, you can't be a normally functioning human being and not know something is wrong. women can have their moments, i could imagine in protest locking myself in the bathroom for a few hours if i was mad at my boyfriend. maybe a day. but i think if i stayed in there for more than a couple days, he'd probably try a little harder than, "honey, please come out now?"

it sounds like NOBODY else knew this was going on. woman just falls off the face of the planet and nobody asks? i wonder if people DID ask the boyfriend and he made something up.
 
I'm calling shennanigans on this one..

Two years. No way!

After several hours, you'd lose feeling in your legs, after a few more and you'd get pooling of blood in the legs which could cause untold cicrulatory damage. Issues like that will kill you PDQ. Suspension trauma can take minutes if youre not sitting right and we all know how issues life deep vain thrombosis kill you in hours sitting on an aircraft...

Two years...I smell poor reporting bs

Well I would go get my broom, but maybe a plunger would be better in this case. ... 2 years :eek: I think both (boyfriend & girlfriend) should be checked out for mental health issues. I mean how long would you let somebody sit on a toilet?
