I have nasal pillows, so I just whip it off, and press the off button on the machine.
Chemophobe, guilty as charged. Because I'm a former farm owner (Grant County, Wisconsin) and lived in farm country (rural Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Illinois) most of my life. I also lived in Chicago for six years (Uptown and Near North) and don't recall seeing too many farms there. Perhaps that's changed?
When I say that's disgusting, I'm not talking about your compost heap,earlvillestu wrote: ↑Wed Feb 22, 2023 5:55 pmNope, not immobile, and nothing disgusting about it. By the time the compost pile (mainly food scraps, leaves, grass clippings, fireplace ash, etc.) cooks down into rich, organic compost, the urine will be long gone, with only the essential nitrogen remaining. A lot less disgusting than the glyphosate-infused crap that most people buy at the supermarket produce section and actually put it into their mouths.Conrad wrote: ↑Wed Feb 22, 2023 7:52 amI REALLY hope that you're joking because that's definitely disgusting, unless of course, you're immobile?earlvillestu wrote: ↑Tue Feb 21, 2023 3:15 pmI also don't need to unhook. I have an empty, large plastic cat litter box that I keep by the bed. When it gets full, my wife takes it out and recycles the nitrogen from its contents into her garden compost bin.
Your point? They used chamber pots because that was the best choice at the time. They were just waiting for the flush toilet to be invented. I'm fairly certain that most people can find their way to the bathroom and their flush toilet instead of eliminating in their bedrooms.

SCORE!
(1) I don't "piss in a cat box." I pee into a used cat litter container. If you were familiar with cat litter, you'd known that some brands come in a large plastic container that has a tight, screw-on lid. Which is why we save them and use them. No "sloshing" and spilling involved.Conrad wrote: ↑Thu Feb 23, 2023 7:47 amWhen I say that's disgusting, I'm not talking about your compost heap,
I'm talking about you pissing in a cat box in your bedroom. What else is disgusting is that you're having your wife empty your urine filled cat box. Sloshing pee in a cat box while trying to carry it outside without spilling must be quite a chore. Why would you have her do this instead of doing it yourself? Actually, why do this at all?
Nope, not in jest, and with no such intention.chunkyfrog wrote: ↑Thu Feb 23, 2023 10:52 amI am certain that all this cat box "business" was in jest--

After you're done, do you circle around it a few times and then cover the clump with your paws?earlvillestu wrote: ↑Tue Feb 21, 2023 3:15 pmI have an empty, large plastic cat litter box that I keep by the bed.

(2) My wife does this because doing it was her idea and is done at her request, it's her compost heap and organic garden, and she has a specific method for the weekly depositing of food scraps, yard waste, fireplace ash, and nitrogen. In the parts of the year in which yard waste is plentiful, she needs even more nitrogen to balance things out, so I also pee into a litter container during my daytime trips.
