Would you poop in my outhouse?

The Horse @TheHorse (238330) • Walnut Creek, California 13 Aug 19

One of my projects in Montana this Summer was making my outhouse more attractive. Pooping in an outhouse can be difficult, even for me, as spiders are crawling around your tush, packrats are looking on with disdain as you sully...

Outhouse photo by me: Do you have these in your area?

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 12 Jan 17

After reading a post by @jaboUK concerning her grandparents, it seemed a good time to share a photo of an outhouse that we took a bit ago. No one uses the outhouse as far as we know, but the people who own the land seem to want...

Homeless (With Five Children)

Morley Hunt @Morleyhunt (21741) • Canada 15 Oct 16

Our family was complete. The house we lived in was a nice size, but only had one bathroom. With five children (four of them girls) one bathroom was not enough. We looked into raising the roof to add a second bathroom and an...

Rescued!

Morley Hunt @Morleyhunt (21741) • Canada 25 Jan 16

Funny how someone else's discussion can trigger an old almost forgotten memory. The first thing I read this morning by @ScribbledAdNauseum was her account of being locked in her bedroom. I was five years old. One of the three...

Amber @AmbiePam (120908) • United States 12 Nov 12

I totally acknowledge this is pretty horribe, and the uncle who did it is now very sorry as an adult. Let me set the scene for you: my dad is the 15th of 16 children. They were poor, and had an outhouse until my dad was a senior...

Potty training when there was only an outhouse

ShannyBananny @shaggin (74987) • United States 13 Nov 11

Ok so I looked at my sons potty chair today and thought about the fact that it was mine when I was little. Then I got to thinking what did the potty chairs look like when my mother was little and even before that. Then I thought...

Could you live without technology?

benz87333angel @benz87333angel (104) • United States 16 Feb 10

I will be doing this myself for 10 months, starting in April of 2010. I will be living like the Amish do, no technology! Technology runs our life. It is all around us everyday running our life. I think people have relied on...

Bob Dylan and his Idiot Wind...

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 18 Mar 09

The answer for Bob Dylan's neighbors may not be blowin' in the wind, but the problem seems to be. Some of Dylan's downwind neighbors have complained to the fuzz about the smell from the outhouse on his Malibu, CA...

It smells like an outhouse and I kinda like it....

reinydawn @reinydawn (11642) • United States 22 Nov 08

Here's the thing... Lately, my bowels have been a bit loose and a bit stinky... Lately, it smells like an outhouse when I leave the bathroom, but I'm not at all ashamed. Actually, I kinda wish my family was around to enjoy this...

Decorating the bathroom

sweetdesign @sweetdesign (5142) • United States 26 Sep 08

Do you change the look of your bathroom(s)? Do you do it seasonally or just occasionally? I really don't very often. I do want to make a more permanent change to one of mine. I want to do it in an outhouse theme. I have found a...

Did you ever have an outhouse?

kykidd @kykidd (6812) • United States 24 Nov 07

I was fortunate enough that our family home had plumbing growing up, but we had relatives who did not. Did you have indoor plumbing when you were growing up? I can remember different relatives switching over to indoor plumbing or...

Have you ever used an Outhouse?

ElusiveButterfly @ElusiveButterfly (45941) • United States 20 Nov 06

When I was little that was what we had to use. I won't use a porta-potty, I'd rather use an outhouse.

Model Railways

Just an Ordinary Owl? @owlwings (43897) • Cambridge, England 6 Nov 06

Did you have a train set or a model railway when you were a kid? (Or maybe you still have one!) I had a Gauge 0 clockwork set with loads of rails. We used to make layouts in the garden in the summer and in an outhouse in the...
