[POLL] Have you ever used an outhouse?

[3NF]

Yes, when I was a kid. My parent's had friends who owned an old farm house and that's what we used when visiting.

I see.

No wonder I didn't think it was all the funny. I had to be there!

Yeah, camping and hiking and stuff but my gradparents also own a farm in Taiwan. The toilet is actually a squatter that runs right into the chicken yard. There's no running water in the toilet room, and it stinks as you'd expect.

The "shower" is in the room next to the toilet room. It has one faucet coming out of the wall and a huge (maybe 20 gallon) ceramic pot with a dipper pan. In the summer you just douse yourself with the cold water. In the winter you boil water in the kitchen and dump it into the pot to keep from freezing.

You have to walk outside to get to both of these rooms. There's a light bulb in the shower but none in the toilet. They used chamber pots during the night if they have to go. I just held it so as to avoid the experience.

My wife and I hike in different national parks every year on our vacations. Most parks generally have pit toilets - not outhouses per se, but pretty much the same thing.

What is really fun is throwing up in a pit toilet - which I've had the misfortune to do. I was retching so violently that I was hugging the seat like my best friend (YUCK!!!)

Think I would have just thrown up outside on the grass. Cant even imagine getting close to the seat of one of those with my head.

Yes, on fishing trips. Many times.
