Necessity is the Mother of Invention
Weak
This morning I had the pleasurable experience of getting caught in a traffic jam when the interstate I was on was closed due to an accident. I take these kind of things in stride fairly well but this particular bit of traffic put me in park sitting completely still for 68 minutes. It was raining and I was in the left lane boxed in by two large trucks.
Lately I have been adhering to all of the health advice out there about staying hydrated and drinking plenty of water. At minute 55 of the traffic standstill I realized some sort of action needed to be taken and I did not have extra pants. Below is a picture of the emergency urinal I constructed. Luckily upon completion of the build traffic began to move and I found relief at a nearby service station. If you are interested in helping me patent this object please let me know.
Getting stuck in traffic is completely weak.

Soo Funny and creative. I think we have all been there.

Too funny! If I had any extra time at all, I think this would be a wise investment. I once had to pee inside of an extra large Jack’s fast food cup. The joys of being on an Alabama highway where all the gas stations close early. Funny thing is, I filled the whole thing up, had to pour, and begin again. Not cool. Do you know how hard it is to stop midstream? That’s a whole lot of muscles I don’t have apparently.
The best part of this story is when I had to call my then boyfriend and tell him that I needed to use his washing machine to wash my pee pants because the drop-exchange didn’t work out so well.
Nothing like that in the world. “Yo, honey, can I wash my pants at your house. I peed myself.”

Yeah, that is one way to make an impression

damn girl, you filled an extra large cup and had to keep peeing?

you’ve got the bladder of a killer whale, honey

In my younger days, I did some mountain climbing in Alaska.The temperature at night was always way below freezing. We used a Pee Bottle at night as an alternative to going outside the tent. We slept with the bottle to keep it from freezing as it thus becomes useless. It takes only a little imagination to realize why we were very careful when using the bottle in the sleeping bag.

First of all, I would like to point out that my work computer blocks any photos that come with these posts, so I had 12 hours to wonder what you created.
Second of all, that sharp edge along the top looks terrifying.

I was nervous about that jagged edge too but had come to terms with the risk. So glad I didn’t have to use it. I sure any contraption you imagined was way cooler than what I actually built.

Very creative! Guys are lucky in this department 😀

Yeah, glad I didn’t have to use it but at least it was an option.

I’ll never foget my buddies and their “warm” apple juice bottles. Men have it soooo easy! 😉
