What’s the tp dispenser like?
Man, I hate fighting those things just to get 4 or 5 crummy squares out of the bottom to wipe my ass with. Repeat 3 or 4 times. Ruins the whole experience unless the janitor is knowledgeable enough to place a single roll on top of the grunt bar.

Well now that you mention it....
Anyway, have you shat at Kohls? It's a great place to shit.
I've shat at Kohls a couple of times (two different Kohls actually) and it may be the best department store shat out there. [Reply]

Back in the 70s and 80s, the shitters in many stores like K-Mart were coin-op. You had to put in a dime or crawl under. And let me tell you, buddy, the dime did not improve the quality of the experience at all! Then there were times you'd put in your last dime and there's no damned paper! And no refunds of your dime! Or you'd get those teeny, thin tissue squares that you'd have to fight the dispenser to let go of. I shake in rage just thinking about it!!!11!!
Impressive. I pooped on the top of Aspen Mountain last week, in the Sundeck restaurant facility. Soft lighting, yes, ambient music being able to hear music playing in the restaurant. Being that it's on the top of an ~11,000 foot mountain, though, the crapper while a conventional flushing style had a vague odor hinting of a mountain outhouse-style toilet, like one of those where you do your thing into a hole in the ground.
Speaking of hole in the ground mountain toilets, I think from now on I'm preemptively plugging my nose with tissue or something before opening the door to those things because I nearly doubled over barfing coming out of the one at the Maroon Bells parking lot last week. Some scumbag left the lid up, filling the room with a blast of piss so strong I nearly screamed in horror going inside. I hurriedly did my business, went out gagging and spitting and nearly puked on the driveway to the parking lot. One of the hole-toilets on the top of Independence Pass doesn't have a lock on the door so it's a pray-and-spray. Worst one I ever encountered was at the North Fork Trail parking lot across from the old South Platte Hotel in Jefferson County, Colorado. It must have been stoners; I really don't know, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out why multiple people would pee in every corner of the bathroom instead of inside of the toilet itself. There were even a few dried turds there, too. Maybe they were so stoned, they were afraid of falling into the hole and/or felt the need to lean their backs against the corner of the bathroom for balance?
It's always good, when driving in the Rockies, to bring some TP just in case. I had to use some of my own last year in the outhouse thing at the Ashcroft ghost town site because their TP dispenser was empty, curse their souls. And a lot of these places don't have phone service if you get trapped on the crapper. Ashcroft, Maroon Bells, and Independence Pass are not in cellular network range. YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN. PREPARE OR ELSE.
Rumor has it that Travador shat at Tay Tay’s posh east coast digs recently. Hopefully the subject will come up on a future podcast. (After the breakup.) Wonder if that was Trav’s first time using a solid gold bidet… Pretty sure Tay & SR have the same model. Only two were made, and they shop at the same bidet boutique in Milan. [Reply]
Simply Red, you pooped any fun new places recently? I've been a boring pooper. Mostly just at work and home. I need to pay a visit to Khol's soon. [Reply]

I’m not a spelling zombie, but…
Was in como for an infusion this morning, but the wife passed on shopping to get back home so she could drop me off and make it to town in time for the grandkids homecoming parade.
So I held my cheeks together and shat at home.
I’m going back next Thursday for speech therapy, so I have that going for me.
