In your post regarding the Auto-Pot **ETF** the article mentions a 10 minute time limit. Do the doors pop open and you’re expelled onto the sidewalk, knickers at your ankles? ---

It should be noted, tho, that several of the first page posts asked for some clarification, in case there was more to the story, which she never provided. So, all we are left with is an appearance of elitist classism. So, again, **Sat on Cookie** , was there anything you left out of the OP? Did the lowly worker soil your bathroom walls with bloody fecal matter? Did he leave spooge in your hand towell? Did he leer at you while wiping his hands on his overalls as he exited the bathroom? Or did you just over react? ---

I reckon that this thread would make a great sociological study into the…erm…_attitudes_ towards shit and shitters from different demographic backgrounds. Anybody willing to take it up as an essay topic for Soc: 101? 😛 ---

> [@Ponder Stibbons](#): > > You know, I think that post is destined to become a classic. I’ve got to bookmark it so I can bring it up on special occasions. Reminds me of a extra large font “Cunt!” from long ago… In two current threads, we have returned to the flavour of Pit threads from my Doping infancy. It’s got me so excited, I may have to retire to the facilities for a while. Excuse me. ---

> [@Trunk](#): > > I’m afraid it has turned into a **Spongemom** moment for her, without the final [sentiment](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6199997&postcount=68). Wow! I missed that one!! And it was directed right at me…and you…and you…and you. My landlord is showing my apartment today…should I have padlocked the bathroom? I’m so comfussed. My landlord, being of a higher class than I, since she owns the place, surely would not lower herself to lower herself onto my rented throne. But she is showing it to a member of the renting class. This potential renter could be of my class of renter or could be of a lower class of renter. If he/she/they is/are of a lower class, how am I to know if a member of the lower class lowered their pants and used my rented throne. Also, I fear I may have committed a social faux pas (pronounced fox pass) by using my rented throne before a member of a higher class was going to enter my throne room. This bathroom conundrum is quite vexing. I just don’t know what to do anymore. What if they get spooge on my towels? I didn’t put out special towels. I can’t possibly go home. ---

i think i know the basis for sit on cookie’s arguements. let me just ask…would i be grossly out of hand imagining you in some suburban utopia where lower class citizens do all the menial work for you? you sound really spoiled to me. a whole thread…just for your disdain at how someone had the audacity to stink up your bathroom. i can’t wait for your next post talking about a maid that just doesnt get allllll the way under the chandelier diamonds. just cant get good help these days. why dont they have robot servants like the jetsons promised i would. ---

> [@Ponder Stibbons](#): > > You know, I think that post is destined to become a classic. I’ve got to bookmark it so I can bring it up on special occasions. It’s an instant classic. I’m at least the second person I know to have used it. In all honesty, I have been waiting for a good time to bring it up. “Going spongemom” has – at the very least – entered _my_ mental lexicon. > [@xbuckeye](#): > > Wow! I missed that one!! And it was directed right at me…and you…and you…and you. How’d you miss it? I was riveted to that thread. Of course now I feel a little bad. But dang, she stepped on a kitten’s head and thought there was a kitten angel hovering above the neighbor’s dumpster. Rich, rich stuff. Actually, the closing of the thread probably allowed it to die while it was still beautiful, as opposed to this one which is getting a bit extended. ---

> [@danceswithcats](#): > > I’m still waiting for **shat on cookie** to return with some post which will answer the questions posed thusfar. Methinks I wait in vain. Pretty damn weak. If you’re going to have quirks – and flaunt those quirks in the Pit – come back in here and _own_ your quirks. It’s OK to have a quirk – everyone does – but it’s not OK to disavow them once you discover that no one else is with you on said quirk. ---
