It’s fortunate that I was alone in the department while I was reading this so no one heard my giggling. This was hilarious!

I had a coworker that always fucked up projects and then expected everyone else to bail him out. After his honeymoon in Mexico, he came back with raging diarrhea, and left a mess similar to what you described. After he went home and we discovered what he had done, someone pointed out that it was just a metaphor for his entire career.

Thanks for bringing back the memory. I think.

This one deserves a plaque in the Hall of Flame.

Wow. Has there been a religion started in your honor yet, **Euthanasiast**? Because I’d like to start one.

I might join up, as long as the services don’t involve “passing” the collection plate.

You don’t even want to know about our baptisms.

I’ve gotten tired of learning yet another way I mess up when writing, so I avoided clicking on this thread for a while. It may not be much to brag about, but now I feel all proud because I _can_ use a bathroom with no messy mishaps. Thanks!
