Man Glued to Public Toilet

Posted by samzenpus on from the I-never-thought-it-would-be-like-this dept.

A 58-year-old, North Queensland man didn't find the humor in the prank that left him stuck to a shopping center toilet seat. The man had to be taken to the hospital with the seat still attached after he found himself caught by a fast-acting adhesive that had been smeared on the toilet. Hospital staff were able to remove the seat with the help of some industrial strength solvents. Cairns City Council community safety committee chair Di Forsyth said, "I'm disgusted that a gentlemen has had to go through that because someone thinks it's funny — it's a sick joke. I think the community would be outraged and quite rightly so ... it's quite a dangerous prank." Police have a few leads in the case, but nothing that will stick.

    He probably shouldn't have put his bare ass on a public toilet seat either....(especially one that's glistening with strange goo). Shame on you - you're not even a senior citizen! ;p

      Yeah, he should had dropped road apples without touching the toliet lids or at least put those paper covering over it.

    you should *always* wipe the seat with some TP first... Those who check to make sure they're not sitting on someone's piss never have to worry about this.

      I *ALWAYS* do this, and I *ALWAYS* end up wiping something that came from someone else's body off the seat, weather it be skin or piss, hair, sometimes poo. It never fails. If you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seatie.

    Hello, It's me the old tech troll. I can't make frosty piss because my computer is so old. Well I have to get to bed soon because I need to go to Ocean city in the morning to photograph a wedding. Well I have to find that roll of polachrome before I do. They want some slides rather immediately, while the rest can wait. Now where did I put that roll of polachrome? Is it beside the TRS-80 model 3, nope. Beside the Selectavision player, nope. Let me check the turntable, nope. Is it beside my 2400 bps modem, nope. Let me check by the TV that quit receiving broadcasts back in june but still works with cable, nope. Where can that roll be. Oh there it is beside the Beta VCR, oh that's right I figured on watching a movie before going to bed. That thing can't receive over the air broadcasts, neither can the VHS, I guess it is the computer shit they do with the TV now, DTV, what the fuck is that, I'm barely on slashdot and that took several years of hacking. My Lisa still crashes with slashdot. Oh well of to bed, I'm going to make sure that alarm clock is wound up, did I pack the kodachrome 200 and kodachrome 25?
