Default Oh crap!

Yesterday morning I was running late for church so my lovely wife took our son and went awhile. I was taking a crap and went to stand up. Bang! Porcelain all around me. 3.5 gallons of water on the floor. Water spraying.

Truly an "Oh crap!" moment for me.

Oh well, I was wanting to replace it with a handicap elongated anyways.



I put the picture up on Facebook and text my lovely wife to check out my Facebook. When I slid into my seat at church she leans over and whispers. "Oh, I forgot to tell you. It was leaking out of a hairline crack on the tank yesterday."

You mean it's not rated to take the place of a grab bar? LOL

Actually, I barely bumped it. My first thought was "that had to be cracked". Been around enough toilets to have an idea what goes down you know.
