Was in the men's room at a bar one time. I'm standing at the urinal when in walks this, let's say butch-looking, lady. She pulls out a shoehorn, undoes her fly and starts taking care of business. When she is done she wiped the shoehorn off on her knee, shot my stunned ass a wink, and walks out.

EDIT: Adding commas for everyone who asked nicely.

[–]shamefully_true 28 points29 points ago

Funny, I have a recurring dream related to this that just recurred last night.

In the dream, for some reason, I remove my penis. The base just sort of peels off from my body and it pops off with no blood or anything. The testicles remain in place. I'm always terrified because I'm in that state where you don't even know you're dreaming. Then, my penis always grows back. I'm not sure how the time frame works but I think in the dream I just skip forward a week or so to where it's begun to grow back, baby size at first but eventually back to its original size standard boastful comment about my penis size. throughout all of this I'm completely unaware that it's a dream until I wake up immensely relieved.

In the most recent occurrence of this dream, though, things got weird. First, I had two full penile systems (the penis + scrotum assembly) - the second penile system was just below the scrotum of the normal one, in what would normally be the taintal region. Then, you guessed it, both the penises peeled off in the normal way. Needless to say, I was twice as terrified as in the normal dreams, and my panic doubled when the dream failed to cut away to a regrowth montage. Just when I was about to get seriously worried that something might be wrong I woke up started browsing this site.

What do you think this means, Reddit?

Oh, fuck, dude, I am crying... between that story and the comments, urine is actively attempting to exit the penis part of my assembly. My co-workers do not understand.

[–]deliciousbrains 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Congratulations on your purchase of a penis + scrotum assembly!

Please ensure proper clearance before operating your penis + scrotum assembly. Use of the penis + scrotum assembly in public can lead to operator injury. Do not operate your penis + scrotum assembly if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If you experience penis assembly failure, please consult appendix C of your penis operator manual.

This dream can signify your anxiety about losing vitality, power or your identity. Your penis is what defines you as a man. To lose it in a dream is simply your mind expressing a fear of becoming weak.There'a nother, more positive, reading on this dream too. Losing your penis might symbolize a desire to escape the responsibilities of adulthood and go back to being a kid.

[–]Sir_Scrotum 3 points4 points ago

This pattern of aggressive behaviour is typical of these butch females. Here we see a shoehorn used for erect urination, directing the flow of urine away from the body towards the urinal. The butch female is engaged in a life or death struggle. The huge bull limpet, enraged by this audacity, endeavours to spray the butch female, but to no avail.

A shoehorn is pretty creative. But I have to say that women peeing standing up is something I've come to get used to here in .nl.

When there are outdoor festivities, it's happened quite often that I'm taking little rotzooi out for a slash somewhere in a corner or a hedgerow and there's a woman with a "GoGirl" (google it) apparatus standing next to me, where I of course normally would expect a dude. Quite strange. I'm not sure if women are familiar with men's bathroom etiquette. Whatever the case, emancipation has gone too far!

The word LEGO is always capitalized, and never pluralized. If you need to specify more than one LEGO brick, use the term LEGO system, or LEGO blocks.

LEGO implies pluralization. You dont say "pass me those LEGO blocks" because the one on the other end says "WHICH ONES YOU JACKASS". LEGO System is just plain silly, "hey Jim, Pass me the LEGO System" jim is now throwing a pile of LEGO at bob and stating "HOWS THIS FOR A SYSTEM BOB??? BAHAHHAHAHA". See? chaos. Just call it LEGO.

"Hey JIM pass me that flat 2 dot white one" also works.

Not defending the American education system, but I don't think the fact that Americans say "legos" has anything to do with their education. I am hoping that you were not taught the correct plural for LEGO in school.

I was raised in a k'nex household, and I will die in a k'nex household.

Legos ain't got shit on my k'nex made action figures that I seriously played with until age like 8, who all had like intense backgrounds, and like continuity, like it was a whole god damn extended D&D campaign or some shit in my head. Weirdest shit was when my "character", my favorite k'nex-man would lose to the villain. I have no idea how that made sense, but somehow I lost my imaginary game to myself.

And they all lived in some bitchin giant k'nex skyscrapers as tall as I was on my tip-toes with my arms extended.

THANK YOU! I was trying to figure out a way to do this yesterday, but failed as an engineer using ripped up paper cups as hot wheels tracks.

i remember several years ago when i would have been around 14 i was about to head off onto a 4WD trip with some of the family, and we needed to fill up a big bottle with water. i didn't want to use tap water as i don't like the taste (adelaide water is :<), and we have a pura tap which i prefer. but the problem was getting the water out of the pura tap and into this massive bottle that didn't fit into the sink.

i started thinking how i could solve it, and the most obvious solution was to use a hose, but that shit would be dirty as. so i remembered we had this wooden set of ramps that had grooves in them that marbles fitted in. it was for kids, and they would set up a raised maze sort of thing with the ramps starting high and going down, and then roll marbles down it.

so i lined the grooved-out ramps with aluminium lfoil, set up the other blocks in the set to support the ramps from sink height to the bottle sitting on the ground, and turned that shit on.

worked perfectly. i had wonderful drinking pure tap water instead of dirty tap water. felt like such a boss.

You know this discovery was made on accident. The dustpan was placed on the sink while the trash was being emptied, the faucet had a drip going and .... viola! greatness was born.

For the people who don't get it, the cleaner is cleverly using his tools to fill up his tub as his tub is too large to fit in the sink anyway.

In Australia, LEGO is the collective. You would point at a pile and pronounce "That is a pile of LEGO." Individual pieces were simply called by what they looked like (4x4 block, 4x4 flat, etc etc).

Ok, now give me a sanitary way to fill my son's "infant" bathtub while it sits in my normal bathtub. It has sloped sides so the faucet won't reach.

We did that on Senior Picnic Day in the football stadium bathrooms with a couple of flattened traffic cones. The pressure wasn't great, but it did allow us to refill our various water guns and make a few weak water balloons.

Its pretty strange to see this seeing how (out of the blue) I did the exact same thing except using a traffic cone and a trash bin. Subliminal ideas must flow through the hivemind.

Water flow on that method is lame. Lean a bucket over the side of the sink and wait for the water to overflow into the mop bucket below. way faster
