The Shower Slip

Posted 12.08.2006 by Artful Dodger (353)
Several years ago I was invited to go camping in a state park with some friends. Never having camped before, I imagined the four of us pitching our tents on a lonely lakeshore and then sitting around in front of a fire we made by rubbing sticks together. Upon arrival at the campground, I learned that our campsite was nothing more than a simple patch of grass near a large brick building which turned out to be the toilets. My friends' idea of camping, apparently, didn't mean experiencing the pleasures of nature by roughing it -- it meant sitting around a fire on what appeared to be a well-kept lawn, next to a modern public restroom complete with shower facilities. The whole idea seemed a rather dubious proposition. I could have pitched a tent in my own backyard and had the same experience.

We did, however, have a cooler overflowing with beer. And with a group of cuties two sites down, I figured things couldn't be all that bad.

It took us several hours to get our stuff set up, mostly because no one wanted to do the actual work. The other three guys stood around discussing the pros and cons of each particular tent placement, and I, well, I kept sneaking off to the can. When we first arrived, I hadn't been pleased to see we were right next to the restrooms. Now I was glad of their proximity; because, for some unknown reason, I had the squirts. Every ten minutes I would hop out of my chair and, with a casual air, saunter my way toward the crapper. It isn't easy faking nonchalance while keeping one's cheeks clenched like a vise; but after numerous trips I became a master.

I wouldn't have minded the ordeal so much if I had been producing something, anything, other than a smelly liquid the consistency of water. I'd heard the phrase "pissing out one's ass" before, but this was the first time I had experienced it firsthand. Each time I took my seat on the throne the floodgates opened, with nary a nugget to stem the flow. I'd wipe, go back to my pals (who were having quite a laugh at my expense by then), drink some water to keep myself hydrated, and begin the cycle anew.

I finally noticed around nine PM that the shits were coming with less frequency. By midnight I had gone almost an hour without setting foot on my well-trod path to the shithouse door.

My buddies eventually decided it was time to get some sleep and headed off to their tents. I was pretty sleepy myself, but after a long day with the runs I was feeling none too fresh. There were showers nearby and I wanted to take full advantage of them, so I grabbed my towel and toiletries and headed inside. The last shower stall had someone's tighty-whities hanging from the hot water knob, so I moved on to the next one. It was already occupied, so I kept on going. I rejected two more showers and was running out of options when I came back to the handicap shower. I hadn't seen any handicapped campers out and about, so I decided this was the one for me. It was larger than the other stalls, and had a sweet detachable showerhead on a flexible hose that I could aim between my cheeks to ensure I was squeaky clean. I hopped inside and turned on the water.

Halfway through my second rendition of Satisfaction, I got that sinking feeling in my gut that told me despite what I previously thought, I had yet to squirt my last. I didn't think it was serious, so I segued into Hotel California and grabbed the soap. A little fart bubble tried to winkle its way through my sphincter, but I knew what could happen and held fast. Pissed that my bowels were ruining my shower, I tossed open the curtain and stalked toward the toilets, shampoo Mohawk and all, only to discover that both toilets were in use. I announced my predicament to the occupants, only to have one of the guys suggest I go shit in the woods. The other guy didn't make a peep, and I knew it was no use trying to wait him out. He'd sit there all night if he had to, just so he could slink out when no one was around.

I went back to my handishower, thinking that by the time I rinsed off and dressed, at least one of the crappers would be available.

Things naturally progressed from bad to worse. The knowledge that a toilet wasn't immediately available threw my body into a psychosomatic fit, and now my need to go was urgent. I left the shower to check the toilets, which were still occupied. I'm not sure why, but I suddenly recalled the Seinfeld episode in which George pees in the shower at the gym. I giggled a little bit and figured what the hell. I wasn't making anything but water anyway. In my best George voice, I cried out, "It's all pipes!" and squatted. I centered my bung over the drain, relaxed, and... uh oh. Instead of water, I had deposited a large pile of mush on the drain.

Unsure how to go about cleaning up the mess, I did the only thing I could think of. I grabbed the detachable showerhead, held it as close to the floor as I could, and did my best to spray the mess down the drain.

It didn't work. All I managed to do was spread shit all over the shower floor.

I gave up.

As I got dressed, I heard a toilet flush. The main door opened and closed. And then I heard the second toilet flush as Mr. Shameful got the hell out too. Bastards.

I grabbed my stuff and headed toward the door, anxious to make my own getaway before someone discovered the craptacular mess I had left. I happened to look down as I passed the changing bench, and there, like a gift from God, were a small pair of flip flops left by some careless kid. Grinning like a fool, I carried them back to the shower and tossed them in -- a red herring for any poop detectives that might come sniffing around. I closed the curtain and walked out of the restroom, away from what was definitely not my finest moment.

That is of course, usually the way it goes.

You could have heled back your pile of chocolate sludge until judgement day, and nobody would have freed up either stall. But seeing you released the hounds, both stalls were freed up.

At least you had a way to cover your tracks.

Hahahaha that's hilarious! I'm so sorry you had to go through that. How ironic, that the one time you really needed to be peeing out of your ass, you ended up not. So I take it you'll never be camping again!

The Thunderous ... (687) -- 12.08.2006

See I am trying to understand this. You crapped over the drain it was mush so the removable shower head should have gotten the mess out. Unless of course it was one of those damn "water saver" shower heads. I would have tried taking a whizz on the pile to see if it would go down. How dare that guy suggest you go shit in the woods. Did he? I admire you for covering up the evidence. That deserves kudos.

Lame comment!

You should have mashed it down through the drain with feet and then wash your feet thoroughly afterwards. That's what I do when my kids craps while taking a shower at the YMCA.

I would have covered my tracks by making volcanic gurgling noises deep in my throat and shouting 'oh jesus man , the friggin drain has backed up and verily covered me in a broiling heap of lava-like shit' hence shifting the blame.

Dodger, you have committed turd-terrorism.

paradise pooper (51) -- 12.08.2006

i agree with DD. if you had crapped in there by acciddent, it would be excuseable, but tha fact you did it deliberately is definately turd-terrorism. Shame on you.

Artful Dodger (353) -- 12.08.2006

I politely disagree. Turd-terrorists commit their acts with malicious intent, and I did not. You also forget that I was in a no-win situation, as both toilets were occupied and I couldn't hold back any longer. It was coming out no matter what. All I did was choose the spot I thought would leave the LEAST mess, as opposed to say the sink, or the middle of the floor. It didn't work as well as I'd hoped, but I feel no shame.

The Thunderous ... (687) -- 12.08.2006

Artie I happen to agree with you! The definition of turd terrorism is to commit an act of shit that must include malicous intent. Or in my case if I am provoked expect some kind of a dookie missile waiting for you.

So your caps lock is broken big deal.

Kind of sad how a person wants the liquishits and doesn't get it. Our bowels are evil.

I have used camsite showers before. The drains are pretty small so you cant shove anything down them. And they run out of hot water so fast.

I'm wondering what happened when little Johnny or Andy came looking for his shoes and found them in poo poo.

No, not your best moment, but I'm still giggling. Shame on both of us!!

We had a neighbor who used to camp at places like this. The showers took quarters. He didn't take enough one time and ran out of water right when he was full of lather both shampoo and soap. I got to listen to him recant to my dad how icky it was to get dressed over all that soap to go back to the camper and get more quarters to go back and rinse off.

Was your shower a pay shower?

Artful Dodger (353) -- 12.09.2006

daphne, it wasn't a pay shower. I've heard of those, but never seen one. I wonder what kind of A-hole came up with that idea.

On a different note, I hate the kind of campsites I described in the story, with people hanging out in big RV's and campers with air-conditioning, heat, sound systems, and satellite television. Why not just stay home, people?

ghostlight (30) -- 12.09.2006

Good story Artful Dodger.
I don't like those kind of campsites in your story either. The whole point of camping is to get away from it all for a while. Kinda defeats the purpose if you are bringing everything with you. If you want a real camping experience, I'll take you up in the Highlands. Winter camping in the mountains, now that's roughing it.

The Big Wiper (2245) -- 12.09.2006

Dodger, there's a movie that Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz made back in the '50's called "The Long, Long Trailer" which explored trailer park life with a humorous twist. (Lucy's antics, of course!) It's on cable every now and then, and it's amazing to see just how much of an elaborate culture the RV/motorhome/trailer crowd have developed out there.

Back, then, of course, it was possible to actually save some money by hooking your rig up at one of these parks. But that was before the days of exorbitant gas prices. I wonder just how much it costs some of these RV and motorhome owners to haul around their rigs these days!

Artful Dodger (353) -- 12.09.2006

Hopefully this doesn't sound hypocritical in light of my above post, but I DO own a camper with all the stuff I was complaining about (except the satellite). I bought it as temporary housing until my house is built next spring, so it's not like I'm out camping in it...

shitwit (563) -- 12.10.2006

Every year my husband's family has made it a tradition to camp out at such a campground in NY. We love going there and our own kids are also carrying on the tradition. I know exactly what is going on in those showers! While washing lil' shitwit this past summer he let one tootsie roll drop out in the handicapped shower (which also has the handheld shower head). I quickly picked it up with his little washcloth and set it aside til we left, when I promptly tossed the package in the trash. He's only shit once in the bathtub in his whole shitting career, why he chose the campground shower no one will ever know!

It`s no wonder the shameful guy in the stall kept quiet Dodger. First the singing and then you running around nekkid, shampooed-up, clutching your butt cheeks, demanding entry. He must have thought he`d set up camp in Deliverance country.

ChiknGreez (52) -- 12.11.2006

Sadly, I would have done the same thing.

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 12.11.2006

incredible i must say and what a sly way to lay the blame on someone else.

Anal About Poop (239) -- 12.11.2006

Sadly, I HAVE done the same thing. When I was living in Mexico our house, for some strange reason, had the shower and the toilet in two separate rooms. One evening as I was taking a shower I felt the need to evacuate. I had diarrhea from all the mangos I had been eating so I figures it would be the same liquid poo I had been producing all day. My mom had yelled at me the day before for taking too long in the shower so the last thing I wanted to do was stop mid shower, towel off, sprint to the toilet across the hall, take my dump and then go back to finishing the shower. So I did the most logical thing a 6 year old kid could think of. I pooped over the drain, but instead of liquid I got a perfectly formed logged. I panicked and once again used my 6 year old logic to get rid of the log. I squished it with my little pink flip-flop until only little chunks of poo were swirling around the drain. I poured shampoo on the floor to try to cover the smell. I then got yelled at for using the entire bottle of shampoo. I just couldn't win. :(

SamDamnit (1192) -- 12.12.2006

Great story. I think the suggestion to stomp the poop down the drain, was a good one.

runninggrrl2 (170) -- 12.12.2006

Haha...great story! I'm with you, Dodger...I hate those stupid yuppie campsites where they take all the fun out of roughing it. When you camp, you're supposed to bathe in creeks and crap in the woods and wipe your bum with pinecones. None of this indoor plumbing crap ;). And I would think that if your poo was nice and mushy, like you say, it should have gone down the drain ok. Once my dog pooped in her cage (she had diarrhea) and I had to rinse it out in the tub. It was kind of mushy, but after a few seconds it dissolved and went down the drain. Along with about a half gallon of bleach that I poured down there after that to clean my tub.

You know, it just occurred to me that these yuppy campsites are good for senior citizens who may not be able to rough it like they once did. Old people need a vacation, too.

i work at a pet store and have seen some monstrous fish shits before. One night i swear there was a fish turd in there the size of an oktoberfest sausage. I examined it for a while. It was reddish brown and stank pretty bad. i poked at it with a stick only to break it up into a shit cloud the engulfed the entire tank. After much observation i came to the conclusion that it was either the one gold fish or possibly steve who had been working the shift before me.

GranniePanties (not verified) -- 02.20.2007

You should just shit on the floor near the silent guy and watch his horror as there is poop all over his feet and he thinks "Holy Shit is this mine" and then run run run back to your camp. Naked.
Okay maybe not a good idea. Just dump and run

Dookey (not verified) -- 02.21.2007

"drink some water to keep myself hydrated"
Bad boy! If all you're drinking is water and beer, then you're bound to have the liquishits. You need some solid food, boy. Crackers or somethin'.

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 03.08.2007

why didnt you just mush it all down with one of the flip-flops?

Crunchy Frog (48) -- 03.08.2007

LOL @ turd terrorism comment. Imagine coming back and finding your flip-flops in a shower full of shit and not only getting blamed for it but losing your footwear too :-)

MousePoo (150) -- 07.12.2007

Bummer that you had to empty yer dump tank that way. A good read.

Bullroarer (44) -- 04.15.2008

This one cracked me up..also reminded me why I *never* camp at campsites! When I camp, I take a trowel to dig my crapper with!
Thanks for the funny read--how about another one?
