A “Throne By Any Other Name” Sunday Evening Open Thread

So, my casual Sunday, which I thought was going to involve beer, sports, and gardening, turned out instead to be a series of pitstops at home design outlets to look at shower fixtures. Because you can’t spend the type of money WineWife wants to invest in a new bathroom & have the whole concept built around something Moen unloaded onto Home Depot for a sale.

But even at the fancy stores, or maybe because it was the fancy stores, you come across the one piece of equipment that separates the men from the boys. The humble urinal.

Based on Hippo’s Toffee-based piss complaint from earlier today, the timing of this trip seems quite fortunate.

There are so many kinds to get. There are your hands-free options,

there are ones with & without a lid,

your full-sized options, in one of four colours,

and – for the man who misses sporting events and/or going in a group, there’s a trough option available for home or business use.

And don’t get me started on the numerous bidet options that were available.

It was a truly eye-opening experience, and my behaviour today – while considered by some in the same car to be “childish” and “embarrassing” – ensures I no longer have to enjoin any further adventures in this area. I earned my beer.

And thanks to today’s adventure, I now have options to purchase for where to deposit my used beverages in future.

Tonight’s sports:

• NHL:
  • Dallas vs Chicago – 7:00pm | NHLN / Sportsnet

So I think I actually want to go to work now.
