If you could erase one memory, would you? Which one?
Oh it would definitely be the memory of me using the toilet at a Superbowl party, at a good friend’s place and not knowing ahead of time that the plumbing to said toilet wasn’t working, or even hooked up.
Rob from Things I Have Thought of knows the story, poor him.
The moment where I turned to flush the little lever and realized there was no pressure behind it, it loosely hung there, was nothing short of mortifying.
The moment where I realized the toilet was not in its usual place, it was simply set on the other side of the bathroom so that flooring could be replaced around the plumbing that led into the floor, made my heart pound like it never had before.
The only thing that made it worse was having to go back into the kitchen where the homeowner and everyone else was, and explain what I’d just done.
The homeowner, my good friend, literally rolled on the kitchen floor laughing.
And I know this is super gross and probably TMI, well, the whole story is TMI but it was a number two, yes.
