Imponderable #50: Monument Colorado

15 Jun

June 15, 2012

The Imponderable has turned 50. That in itself is Imponderable. The series began with a story about a woman who suddenly developed a British accent after dental surgery and was quickly followed up by an assault with an animal carcass and Vatican relics found in a trailer home in middle America. No less than three people were flattened by steamrollers and from London, a lawyer invoked self-defense in a case of public urination. We saw bad puns by lawyers at their clients’ expense, a boy who loved his toilet, and Japanese scientists who developed a way to scan people’s butts.

It has been interesting to say the least. So there had to be something special for #50 and as always, the news media came through.

Wow. “We have that bathroom problem again.” Is nothing safe any more?

“Problem”? This is more than a mere “problem.” Guy’s junk got scalded when a jet of steam shot out the urinal he was using. Ouch! Talk about getting hurt right where you live. I can’t imagine the Arby’s plumbing nightmare that caused that guy’s nightmare with his plumbing. How could it the restaurant’s pipes be that screwed up?

Clearly this guy is in line for a huge settlement, but would you want to go through what he did for a few thousand dollars? Although I have no clue what his “financial losses” might have been, unless he was a porno actor, the guy is definitely entitled to a boatload of cash.

He is also putting a price tag on the value of sex with his wife. That is either an insult or a compliment to her, I am not sure which.

How could a jet pf steam shoot out of a urinal and scald a man’s junk?

The question is Imponderable.

The “Toylet.” Will Sega Blush With Shame or Flush With Pride?

It is a whole other world in Japan. Based on the movies I’ve seen, I wouldn’t go there, it’s dangerous. Just walking down the street to get a carton of milk, you risk ninjas jumping out of trees, ronin ready to skewer you just beyond your fence, rival Kung-fu schools brawling on every corner, and samurai attacks everywhere. Not to mention Godzilla. And when you get to the store? No milk. It’s all rice wine, sake, sake, everywhere sake.

That all may or may not be true, but seriously, Japan is unlike any other country. Where else can you see grown men in business suits reading comic books featuring little girls with elf ears and skirts that don’t cover their panties who get raped every third page? What’s up with that?

Think I’m kidding? Look at this Hello Kitty urinal screen.

Sick enough for you? I’m not done yet. Sega has come up with a whole video game based on the concept of peeing. Called the “Toylet,” the more and stronger you pee the better you do. And if that’s not weird enough for you, it gets pervy too- you can lift little girl’s skirts with your pee.
