Woman sits on boyfriend's toilet for 2 years

Girlfriend was physically stuck to the seat — her skin had grown around it.


My favorite part of this article is the following quote: “It really doesn’t surprise me,” Ellis said of the bathroom incident. “What surprises me is somebody wasn’t called in a bit earlier.”

It really doesn’t surprise me.

I think we can all feel a little bit better about our own lives now, can’t we? Because no matter how bad things may occasionally look, no matter how our confidence and self-esteem may sometimes fail; no matter how we may at times worry about how we appear to others, I think I can say with some confidence that if you are reading this right now – i.e., if you are on my friends list – should you ever become permanently affixed to the toilet seat of a loved one, at the very least, someone in your immediate family or social circle would consider it at least a little bit out-of-character for you.

“It really doesn’t surprise me,” Ellis said.

"It's true," confirm's Ellis sister Earnise. "We always knew she'd wind up stuck to a toilet seat eventually. It seemed kind of ineveitable. She just had that look about her."

Area dry cleaner Myrtle Bouchard told this reporter: "Whenever you'd pass her in the street and say, 'Hey, Kory, how you doin'?' she'd always answer, 'Oh, I'm okay. You know, right now I just need to go pick up a dozen eggs and some Cheez-Its, but later on I'm planning to spend a couple of years stuck to my boyfriend's toilet seat.' I always just assumed she meant it metaphorically."

Not all those we spoke to took the situation quite so easily in stride, however. “Stuck to a what?” asked neighbor Florin Gilchrest. "You are kidding me! Although,” he added, “in fairness, I was two years behind her in high school, and I seem to remember now that junior year, she was voted 'Girl Most Likely to End Up with her Ass Grown Up Around her Boyfriend’s Toilet Seat.' But still, at the time, I didn't attach any significance to it. Shows to go you, I guess.”

Did boyfriend have cable in the bathroom? I wonder what happened that the boyfriend finally decided that something needed to be done...

Well, as I just posted elsewhere, my guess is he just really needed to pee.

Did you hear about that woman several years ago who was stuck to a sofa for seven years? Her skin fused to the couch as well. That fusion thing must happen more often than we thought. Gives a whole new meaning to the term couch potato.

Yes, but see -- and this is how this conversation originally got started, at least for me -- couches are fibrous!!! Toilet seats are smooth! How do you become fused with something smooth? It's like they've left out the single most interesting part of the story.

Personally, I can't understand the concept of ANYTHING other than glue getting permanently fused to human skin but, hey. I'm no scientimatician. The way I pictured the toilet story, lady had a big ass, toilet seat got stuck and somehow her bone matter... You know what? I don't want to give it this much thought. But the fact that we're trying to suss out the physics of it is highly entertaining.

Oh God, you know what, I just realized, it must have been one of those revolting padded toilet seats. Those are kind of fibrous, you know what I mean?

I cannot fathom the mental state of such a person. I mean, I would at least have called the Guinness Book people.
