RANTING/VENTING MEGATHREAD 3.0

The squatters make sense for pooing, but if you're a lady and you need to urinate, it can be difficult to use the squatter and not get urine on your clothes.

I don't know, I don't have any problems with this.

I think the trick is to pull your pants/short down low enough, and then to squat low enough. Like, your butt should be down pretty close to your ankles.

As a woman I can confirm that it's pretty easy to pee squatting over a squatty, regular toilet, bush, cooler, stream or sewer grate. Believe in yourself and anything is possible.

Doesn't your stream sometimes go off in different directions?  Especially when wearing a tampon

I like you, Chinguetti, I really do, but - cereal is never breakfast.

It's literally sugar lumps in glandular cow juice. Ew.


Makes a good dessert, though. But not substantial enough for your first meal.

HEY!

Cereal has been my don't-have-enough-time-to-cook food since forever.

But yeah, it really doesn't do me over before lunch anymore. Either I'm going to have to start time-managing my mornings better so that I can cook a decent breakfast or I'm gonna have to start keeping a jar of nuts on my desk.

... this might be a little too detailed for some, but I think when you squat low enough and with your legs far enough apart, things down there tend to get arranged in a way so that the stream is more predictably in a downward fashion.

Gmarket texted me and said my order had been shipped, but the site has said "shipping soon" for a week now. I raved about how fast shipping was but I take it all back.

What does the tracking information say? The system is automated, so you won't get the shipping notification text unless it also says shipping has started on the website / mobile version, too. If you check the tracking status, it should show you where your package is. If the site still says 'preparing shipment' after a week, though, you should contact the seller, or cancel your order, get the refund, and buy it from another seller.

But yeah - literally impossible to get the automated Gmarket shipping-has-begun text and have the website display something different.

I hope your package shows up soon!

Here's the text they sent.

I just sent the seller a message, and if they don't respond in the next day I'll cancel it and try again from someone else.

Funny, but true.

If you are managing to soil yourself in any fashion, you most definitely are doing something wrong.

If you aren't flexible or out of shape, you might not be able to squat.

Korean kids grow up doing it, so it's not a thing to them.

Your feet need to be flat against the floor with he back of your leg pressed to the back of your calves.

Only way you are going to get soiled is by falling backwards or from blowback ;)

Depends on the cereal. There are healthier options than the chocolate frosted sugar bomb variety.

I've actually become quite fond of a bran cereal I've found here. In spite of my sweet tooth, it has hardly any sweetness so I'm surprised I like it.

I'm ****ing starving. 

Cereal just isn't enough for breakfast anymore.

I try to stay away from cereal, but it was on sale and my wife has been having weird appetites lately so I broke down and bought a few boxes of Corn Flight. I meant it for rushed breakfasts but I find myself coming home from school and having a bowl (similar to my other elementary school days!) and then feeling a little ill for dinner...

On the squat-peeing note, there are other methods.

And if those methods don't work for you, there's always this.

Do what you gotta do. ಠ_ಠ

Almonds are on sale at HomePlus across the land, these days.

Also, boiled eggs are literally the best yum-yum of breakfast. Boil them, they keep in the fridge forever. Crack one of those suckers open and dump salt on it, make a giant cup of coffee, and baby, you've got a breakfast goin'.

Call me spoiled, but I don't like boiled eggs more than a day old because they take on a rubbery texture that everyone says I'm imagining but I swear does exist. I also prefer eggs poached in broth and placed on toast. Doesn't take long to make, but I literally leave myself with zero time to cook anything most mornings these days.

I'll have to check out that almond sale, though. Nuts here are ridiculously expensive.

I agree. I do enjoy the sugar bomb cereals, not gonna lie about that, but I generally tend to eat more adult-type cereals like Wheaties, natural granola/muesli, and this new raisin bran type of cereal that I've discovered in a local store.

But I really need some protein in the mornings. I'm going to try making a small cup of cereal a morning side-dish.

You would love my breakfast: coffee. With milk. *And* 2 spoons of refined white sugar. Lunch is more of the same!
Then I get home and ravenously devour whatever I can find in my apartment. (Luckily it's usually a crockpot full of hot, vegetably goodness.)

I've been doing the same thing. Black coffee all day. First meal is when I get home around 5. Don't know how it works but it does.

How do you spread your legs far enough with pants around your ankles?
And if I squatted any lower, I'm sure the stream would probably start aiming upwards (joke)! I've peed on my clothes twice already, I don't have enough faith in your tips to try this again.

This advice should be given to everyone. Man, woman. Old, young. Gay, straight.

Life is too short not to learn how to spread your legs.

I usually do cereal and peanut butter on toast (well, sandwiches here, as I don't have a toaster / place for a toaster) for breakfast. However, I have been too exhausted in the mornings the last 3 weeks or so, and haven't had time for breakfast :( I usually use a healthy cereal, like toasted muesli, however, I haven't been able to find it here, so I get the blueberry special K

Oh weeeeird. English Gmarket. I haven't seen that in forever. I tried tracking the number in the message. It hasn't been registered as shipped at all. So, the seller probably marked it as shipped, put the tracking number in, and then never actually sent it. Which is lame. Cancel immediately.

Haha yeah, I'm not yet proficient enough to use the Korean version. Thanks for the advice; I'll cancel the order.

Use a pan on the stove top, though it requires more diligent attention.

Ewwww Eggs D: (I can't eat eggs, not because of an allergy / religious dietary type reason, but the taste of eggs makes me feel extremely nauseated, to the point I usually vomit).

How would one urinate on themselves from this position?

I don't get it.

Oh, yeah - sorry if I sounded snobby or anything about the English version. Didn't mean to. Anyways, I know exactly what happened, and it's because of some slightly off translation.

The seller marked it as shipped, entered a tracking number, but then never actually sent the item, so the system never updated to Shipping in Progress, and still said preparing shipment, which is the step in between Payment Received and Shipping.

Oh no worries; I didn't read it as condescending. Why would the seller even bother to do that? Maybe they were just hoping I wouldn't bother to cancel the order and they could keep the money? Or maybe they're just very forgetful. In any case I'll cancel it and hope that the next seller will be more honest.

I hate boiled eggs in general, but if I really have to eat them, I will only eat them within a half-hour of being boiled. After that, no. Also, I know what you're talking about with the rubbery texture thing the next day. I hate that, too, haha.

But in terms of making yourself something to eat, I do find that boiled eggs are the easiest to fit into the mornings. I occasionally have them for breakfast and I boil them while I get dressed / dry my hair / do my make-up. I eat it on my commute to work LOL and then I have coffee when I get to school.
