The Saga Continues
I've posted previously about my housemate/landlord who cleans with his old underwear and chews loudly. This week I caught him using a facilitree. I went out on the screened in porch where I had some laundry hanging up to dry. He was in the backyard and clearly relieving himself. There are two bathrooms in the house, and one was definitely empty at the time. I never adjusted to seeing men urinating wherever it struck them in Senegal, and it definitely seems out of place in America. I'm not sure if this is a regular occurrence that I was never privy to, but I was a bit disturbed and asked my former housemate if he had ever seen John peeing in the backyard. He said no, but came up with the idea that John is so conservative about resources that he wouldn't want to waste the water in the toilet bowl. Hmm. But don't you think that if you wanted to urinate regularly in your backyard you should build an outhouse or a composting toilet or something?

well if its peeing in the backyard, or not flushing the shared toilet (to conserve water) which one would you want?
No. I don't think that if you wanted to urinate regularly in your you'd want to build an outhouse or a composting toilet or something.
First off, explain to me how you'd compost urine.
Secondly, it seems as though you'll never understand the joy of an outdoor pee. It's really one of the more wonderful experiences in the world. And doing it in an outhouse would obviously mean it isn't an outdoor pee.
