Back Rub
Last night while I was standing in front of the toilet, pushing around a lock of my girlfriend’s freshly cut hair with my urine stream, I wondered why you can’t give yourself a back rub. I’m sure it’s related to why you can’t tickle yourself, or bite off your own finger (try it!), but if this is some evolutionary mechanism designed to lead to togetherness, procreation, society, whatever, I say it’s run its course.
I keep coming back to reread that first sentence and shuddering a little bit.

It’s vivid, right? Feel free to pass it along to the New Yorker.

Well, you brought the site to the toilet so I should confess. Has anyone ever drank something while pissing? It’s a weird sensation – like some cyclical, umm, maybe like your body has no intestines… I dunno, sorry for the comment.

Oh my gosh yes! Just like eating while pooping! Or puking while getting an enema!
